This isn't from the remake is it? Holy **** they butchered the UI if so.
this is still 10x more diagetic/skeumorphic than anything else released today
that being said, it's 10x less than what was released in the 2000s
and it's 100x less than what should be getting released

I want full 3D menus where everything is a clicity-clackity object **** it!

They added origins for the races. For example: stronghold or Orsinium Orcs, Western or Eastern Nords.

STeam forums filled with people getting banned for complaining about woke devs / DEI / body types.

Like clockwork.

*Sigh*, they just had to add in the Body Type nonsense.. Will have to see if they butchered anything else or if that's the only thing.
Wouldn't surprise me though, considering there were some color-haired freaks in the announcement.
But otherwise it does look surprisingly well done. Remains to see if the game has any modding capabilities though.

Looks like they took those classic race portraits and upscaled them poorly with AI so they're all blurry and lacking detail.

:rip:
During the livestream they mentioned that they used the original Oblivion game logic for the "Brain" of the game.. but then rewrote the asset / render pipeline to be fully native unreal.

This makes me think that technically modding would be possible to a scale similar to original oblivion just with a slightly different (better) asset pipeline that is more standardized (FBX instead of nif files) - but nope.. instead it's "go **** yourself pay pigs".

Based. Saved me 60 bucks.

Peaks and valleys. Some of the highest highs and lowest lows. I think Oblivion has the worst Daedric armor in the franchise personally.

Will test the game for an hour or so to see if its worth a long playtime. But **** the lack of official modding support really ruined most of it, so I might refund it later.

What a piece of ****.

First thing:
Image
It was designed primarily focused on the Xbox. Which is less ****** than a real PC than it was in the 360 era, but it's still a gap that will not serve well on a decent PC.
psychic_dream wrote: ↑ April 22nd, 2025, 15:54
Not to mention the consolized UI β€” why do they always have to dumb down video games to cater to console *******? The UI doesn’t look like it belongs in a PC game.
Objectively correct opinion and phrasing. "Console *******" indeed.

At the end:
Image
It's "Horse Armor++"
FFS...

Mostly, though, I guarantee they fixed nothing substantial about the ****** levelling system.
Yeah, they made assigning stat points more straightforward, but what about the world levelling with you and bandits using glass/daedric weapons and armor?
What about levelling too quickly by having skills be the ones you actually use, and not having powerful enough equipment.
What about levelled quest rewards that are stuck at low useless level if you do the quest early?
Or worse, Finger of the Mountain spell that is uncastable due to insanely high mana requirements if you get it at too high a level. Did they even know about that fuckup?

I am willing to bet they fixed NONE of that.

All those great, practically required Oblivion mods... there's NO WAY they're going to re-create the unofficial patches again.
And while a lot of it was fixing wonky geometry and placement, there was a LOT of work done on fixing ****** scripting and mistakes in all the files.
And like I said, if you're not using an unleveled world mod like Francesco's Leveled Creatures-Items mod, your experience will be frustrating.
Can you even FIX the ****** TV focused UI interface to be a proper PC desktop interface like the original game's BTmod or DarnifiedUI ? I doubt it unless you can deal with Unreal Engine 5's ****** ******** cooked file disaster area.

Skyblivion will have been made by modders who consider the unofficial fixes the default.

And I think we all know this Frankensteined thing will be buggy AF. Even more than the original.

The best anti-piracy that Bethesda games have is the Piggy-Paywall that Script extenders apply for running mods.
I'll pirate it maybe.

No Mods? No Money.

Good luck getting a critical mass of moddres willing to **** around in UE5.

This is probably the first Bethesda game in recent memory that will need to stand on its own merits, without the modding community to make it enjoyable.

I was on the purchase screen in steam

Saw body types - backed out of the confirmation screen.
Saw the DLC for horse armor - closed the store page tab.
Saw no modding capability - added it to my ignore list.


What should I spend this money on? Rusty hates money so I guess I'll buy lunch or something.
