TES Oblivion Remastered

[Finarfin]

I don't get why people make this out like you have to be one one side. I will probably play the remake but will also still play the original and the skyblivion mod.

[rusty_shackleford]

I will not play the trannyblivion mod

It will be fun to see which is better optimised.

[maidenhaver]

Since when is skyblivion trans? I don't follow that stuff. I knew about skywind, but I have no desire play that.

[Roguey]

I don't get why these rumors get credence when Morrowind's still got no remake. Was it not highly popular as well? Would Bethesda not prioritize that one over Oblivion?

Oblivion was both more popular and would take a lot less effort to "modernize." Update the graphix, maybe try putting a bit more effort into the level scaling, call it a day. With Morrowind, they would have to make a different combat system. Additionally, the levitating might be tricky with updated graphix and NPC routines (if they would bother with this). They had to put all the big cities on separate cells from Oblivion on.

[Roguey]

In the 00s there was a meme about how every new game was brown, so it's amusing that they took one of the big ones that wasn't and made it so.

[rusty_shackleford]

completely misses the fucking point of oblivion, abject retards

[maidenhaver]

It'll be pared down slop, absolutely none of the mechanics BGS promised back when but couldn't deliver will feature, npc schedules and raidiant ai won't even feature, but npcs will have more voice actors.

[rusty_shackleford]

maybe if we're lucky it will spur some interest in adding oblivion support to openmw

Somebody was working on that, but dropped it a while ago.

[Vergil]

Nothing ever happens. Trust the plan.
This looks horrifically bad, like, parody levels of awful. If I was going to make joke mock images of an Oblivion remake I would give it minimalist slop UI like that main menu, retarded pre-order bonuses and make everything brown/lifeless

[Unhelpful Contrarian]

Since the oblivion remake is basically confirmed I guess there going to changing full retail price.

[Vergil]

If the elves are beautiful I will pirate it but it'll never even come close to replacing Oblivion.

The journal menu was part of the charm, of course they'd skyrimize it. All memory must be defiled.

[Vergil]

I really don't have super strong feelings about this but I do think it's perfectly reasonable that everyone involved with the creation of this be buttraped with a naginata until they die of blood loss.

Now with 50% more Redguards

It's not even being made by Bethesda, and it won't be on their Creation Engine / Gamebryo. So it will probably have limited to no modding support anyway.

Why even care? Just play the original if you care that much.

Besides, the blocking / combat is allegedly rollslop.

I care as an observer. goygle search says I'm in shambles, because I doubted the remaster rumor.

I suppose. But merely just as an observer. If they haven't 'remastered' the politics, it might be worth paying some attention to. But I suspect it won't be the case, as it was likely mostly developed in the Kabbalah for President timeline.

How can I not observe what's going to be a popular thread on the only forum I still live in?

Those leaks say remaster instead of remake... so is it on a different engine or not? 'Cause to my understanding a remaster is just an uplift of the game's graphics while leaving everything else unchanged, and a different engine sounds like a big change on a fundamental level...

I was gonna say : what's that piss yellow filter on the remake ?

One thing Oblivion had going for it was it was bright and colored, without being cartoonish, and not brown like other games.

[rusty_shackleford]

It's amazing that apparently not a single person working on remakes ever stops to point out such a significant deviation from original games. This seems to happen so frequently.

[Shillitron]

> Play Unreal Oblivion without mods

Ehh....

It's on Unreal engine.

It will look & run worse than a modded skyrim

It's on Unreal engine.

*has one of the best engines that has been iterated upon for years specifically for quick content creation*
*created and optimized specifically for the kind of game oblivion is*
*remake devs choose to use unsloppable engine 5*

[Demonic Fate]

Regardless of quality, if Bethesda saw this project all the way to release without ever giving the Skyblivion guys a heads-up (under NDA of course), they are gigantic arseholes.

It should be just basic decency to tell people "hey, before you put even more years of unpaid work into a passion project, you should know that we've hired another game studio to do something very similar as a commercial product".

I am hoping that the reason the Skyblivion guys' comments are so minimal is because they were told, under NDA, and decided to continue anyway (possibly because they were told enough to guess it would be shit).

People always bitch about Creation Engine but bethesda games would literally be trash on any other engine that didn't offer that level of customization.

Why would Bethesda give some modtroons a heads up?
