Will there be naked women in the next elder scrolls?

>>1089749 Modded? Deffintly 100%

>It's actually real >It's oursourced to Singaporeans kek I'm guessing they'll touch up the animations and visuals and keep the broken scaling system.

>>1089749 >Microsoft company No

>>1089751 >broken scaling system. Skill issue

>>1089755 It isn't perfect. But honestly it isn't the worst out there. Actually more fun then skyrims leveling. Just don't use skyrim leveling random singaporean devs

sneed

>>1089765 How about I shall seed your mom with my seed

I meant to make a thread yesterday about this as the old TES thread has been bumplocked for ages. >>1089749 If you want naked ladies, you can go back to the original Elder Scrolls. Daggerfall gave me a fetish for masked women. >>1089751 It's been leaked since what, 2020? It was obviously real. Jesus Christ it is definitely 4chan in here

>>1089755 >>1089762 >Bandits with glass armor stronger than demons and knights It's shit

>>1089768 When was it leaked in 2020? The most rampant "leaker" got proven wrong about it's release and deleted it's account.

I already played oblivion enough.

>>1089769 The player is stronger than them so why can't bandits be?

<fucked up italics epic The screenshots looked so familiar and I couldn't place what it was. Then it struck me. Shadow of Mordor. They went even harder into Oblivion's Tolkienifcan of TES

>>1089778 Then why can't knights and demons be?

I have never ever played an elder scrolls game in my life.

>>1089791 BUY HIS GAME

This is oblivion goblins for reference.

>>1089783 What, you don't like Oblivion without any of the FUCKING COLOR? >>1089775 I can't even remember, Jensen's Prophecy (Geforce now leaks) maybe? I definitely know it was known about for years, because I posted about it. There have been leaks on and off for ages, since at least 2022 it was known Virtous was making it and it was in UE5.

>twin engine setup with Creation in the background while Unreal handles all the graphics basically confirms it's just a shiny coat of paint

The spiggran looks bustier

>>1089800 She also looks like frog from baldur3

>>1089797 Probably thr Geforce leak then, that had a ton of stuff including EDF

>>1089798 Can't wait for the optimalization being dogshit

>>1089798 >Creation Don't believe in Todd's gaslighting, it's still Gamebryo. It's the same 32-bit engine that can't handle maps larger than 64x64km. GoldSrc is more different to the Quake engine than Creation is to Gamebryo. You can load Starfield maps into Morrowind's editor.

You now remember Oblivion E3 presentation.

Don't we already have an Elder Scrolls thread?

And also if anyone curious, Morrowind now has Anvil in Project Cyrodiil.

>>1089808 It went past 500

>>1089807 Back when graphics cards looked like this. >>1089808 Had. The old obe reached the bump limit

>>1089789 exactly

Remove the dice rolls and morrowind plays pretty much exactly the same as oblivion

The main thing they've changed with Creation and C2 are related to graphics pipelines and graphics programming. A lot of core engine logic is the same, like using instanced "cells" for everything and static 32-bit floats. That's why they couldn't have continuous planet exploration for Starfield, it's literally not possible without rewriting large portions of the engine. >>1089807 Cute deer :3 >>1089808 It's been bumplocked for weeks, unless a bunch of posts were suddenly deleted.

Zoomers please leave

>>1089818 Remember when they were called the iGen. I don't. But it's funnier the zoomer

>>1089818 >genfaggotry pls no

>>1089814 In Morrowind by default Guards don't attack hostiles. Wild life doesn't attack citizen. Bandits and so forth don't attack npcs. Block is a chance as well. NPCs don't have time schedule. However if you do mod it in such a way to improve those things you'll see entire villages drop into water to kill all the slaughterfish and then struggle to return to their original positions.

>>1089825 He probably means combat, but I don't think it's worth arguing with a blatantly stupid post like that. Obviously they're very different in mechanics, TES4 doesn't even have levitation.

>>1089827 If you remember that you have to run from some encounters, ability to feed those encounters to local town guards count for combat.

>>1089811 >>1089812 >>1089817 Ah, quite true. Honestly I don't see a future for TES. The only competent component of Bethesda is their world designers. They make great landscapes and neat maps, that plus the massive influx of new people getting into gaming at the time pretty much carried Skyrim to victory. From here I see a slow march downwards. I expect indie games will begin picking up the big ideas left unsatisfied by BGS. I doubt anything as big as your average Elder Scrolls gaming coming from an indie, outside of maybe a Daggerfall like game or a smaller-scale Morrowind like (but with actual gameplay).

>>1089840 I feel like KCD2 comes close to a modern TES game, complete with essential NPCs and a railroaded main quest.

>>1089778 Because it is fucking retarded that random bandits are running around with high end armour. It also means that the most optimal way to play the game is to remain at level 1 and never level up.

>>1089827 >TES4 doesn't even have levitation. Exactly. The only difference in combat is that they added and removed spells. In oblivion, you can create your own. >In Morrowind by default Guards don't attack hostiles. Wild life doesn't attack citizen. Bandits and so forth don't attack npcs. All these things only enhance the immersion of the game. Unlike dice rolls in a first person game breaking immersion >Block is a chance as well. That's just a dice roll thanks for furthering my point

>>1089843 No it's not the most optimal is to min max

>>1089845 Or bethesda could have just set the enemies to a specific level and not bother with this retarded system. The only thing it accomplishes is making levelling feel utterly pointless.

>>1089848 skill issue

>>1089842 >comes close to a modern TES game, complete with essential NPCs and a railroaded main quest. That's honestly what turned me off of KCD. I liked the more aggressive gameplay in the first one though. But I heard they tuned that down a lot in the sequel.

>>1089848 but that would consider actually putting thought into world design and enemy placement

>>1089840 It's been talked about for a few threads now, but if you're new/you don't know, the original TES devs are trying to make their own game called The Wayward Realms. I don't have any expectation it will be good, but I'm glad that they're trying. Though it's not going going to be like modern TES, it's going to be a big fantasy sim like the original two. It looks so much like a Daggerfall that some screenshots just look like a heavily modded DFU. They also brought the original composer back, the tracks they've posted are very DOS CRPG.

>>1089856 I know all about the wayward realms, followed it since its inception. I have my doubts about its success but I hope they get there. I'm fond of Daggerfall and welcome a worthy successor made by the same creators. But this pattern almost never works out. It's hard not to be reminded of things like Underworld Ascendant and Mighty No Nine

>>1089856 if you're postan that may as well mention the polish one, Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon. still in early access slated for full release in the next few months, anyone tried it?

Come to think of it, I'm not sure I know of any other games like Daggerfall. You'd think such an successful and influential game would get imitators.

>>1089807 I remember the chain/shackles physics in the prison cell. Todd is such a lying piece of shit.

>>1089870 Ah, the one that looks exactly like Skyrim? Thank you, I completely forgot about that. It's based on some tabletop game, isn't it? If so you'd hope it has better RPG mechanics than Skyrim. There are probably other TES successors that I'm drawing a blank on, I'll post them if I remember. >>1089871 The scale and depth of DF was too ambitious for others to copy, I assume. And CRPGs shifted dramatically shortly after its release, Fallout came out the following year. >>1089879 Looking at at their previous releases, it really is remarkable how much he lies. Didn't he say Fallout 4 was going to have hundreds of weapon mods, when the number isn't remotely that high? The early videos of it made it sound like it was going to have Borderlands levels of weapon variety.

>>1089819 >Remember when we were called the iGen

>>1089856 Just watched the trailer and I'm really not that hyped about it. If the game is good at all the lore and story are going to have to do the heavy lifting

>>1089819 I remember "Generation Zyklon"

>>1089884 I'm dissapointed in you anon

>>1089884 >story It doesn't have a "story", the entire game will be radiant quests, with said quests being an excuse to engage with the game's systems and mechanics. Daggerfall minus the main quest, essentially. It does have some of the original TES lore writers though.

>>1089749 Considering this remake is going to be on UE5, probably not. There's not a good set of mod tools for it and I HIGHLY doubt this company is going to put together a creation kit for it. Which means that they're going to need to fix a ton of oblivions more mechanical flaws prior to release. Things like the leveling system being so punishing if you don't minmax, the completely wank enemy scaling, all the bugs, things like that. Honestly though it's not a high bar to fix, just cut the skill increases need for a stat increase in half (1 per stat point instead of 2 per point) and put Skyrim-style gear caps on enemies to prevent the bandits from going past chainmail, dwarven, and rarely mythril.

>>1089895 Some of the leaks suggest that Bethesda is using Unreal primarily for its rendering engine and the game's logic is a grafted Gamebryo DLL that's been bolted in with all the old Oblivion scripts still running in the background.

>>1089907 Same thing as Ninja Gaiden 2 "Black" then

>>1089893 >>1089889 >It doesn't have a "story", the entire game will be radiant quests If you're excited for this, I feel sorry for you as it's obvious it's going to be shit

I am not asking anymore. Buy my games.

>>1089923 You're not done making editions to skyrim right todd? You haven't made an edition in 4 years

Getting Tainted Grail, heard really good things about it so far. Hopefully it doesn't stay in early access forever

Tamriel Rebuilt is finishing up their next release, Grasping Fortune. They're close enough to release that they're actually deciding on if some misc quests are worth implementing or saving for a patch.

>>1089950 Get hyped

>>1089915 If you've played daggerfall which I have it might be fun

would

Post your face when you are NOT a Skyblivion dev right now

>>1089977 The funny thing is that Skyblivion is likely to be better if they finish

>>1089974 You installed a slavery mod to capture, break and eventually turn her into your own lusty Argonian maid right? Right?

>>1089979 >Shitrim overlay Nah

>>1089984 All I'm going to say is that we will see

>>1089871 Successful? Influential? Daggerfall?

>>1089977 >>1089984 Skyblivion will no doubt be more functional than Bethesda's remake. They're afraid of competition so that's definitely why this remake is in the works.

>>1089795 Goblin witch sexo

>>1089974 Why is deeja so popular if the only romancable argonian is way better

>>1090005 They played skyrim when they were a kid and she was the first woman to ever beat them up and rob them.

Morrowind has filtered me several times. How do I prevent this? Also any mods required for a playthrough?

>>1090035 What exactly are you struggling with? >Also any mods required for a playthrough? Not required, but I strongly recommend you play OpenMW instead of the base game.

>>1090047 Its been a good while since I last tried it but the movement is too slow, the combat unappealing due to the MISS meme.

>Oblivion remake ...why? WHY? I feel like I'm living in a fucking fever dream, almost two decades and now Toddthesda is regressing to remaking their previous titles. What do they even have to gain from remastering Oblivion of all things?

>>1090096 They couldn’t just sit back and let a free fan remake steal their money. This one’s official™ and retards will pay for it.

>>1090096 It's just sitting there, a relatively effortless potential pile of money with little investment costs. What's not to like about the idea from the point of view of the suits? Can't say I didn't feel that it was coming, but I've felt like it was coming for the last 10 years already, so does it count? Remakes and Remasters will always be all the rage because they can reuse proper (or at least better) game design from older times, but with the modern sheen and enshitification that grasps masses, so it's super profitable.

>>1090035 https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/55396

>>1089744 >Oblivion remake >Unreal Engine No Mods == Dead On Arrival

>>1090085 What you need to do is pick a single weapon and stay with it, read up on UESP for how the weapon mechanics work. Constantly missing is only a problem at lower skill levels, a common trap new players fall into is finding a good weapon they're not spec'd into, and trying to use it. >>1090096 I'm guessing they picked Oblivion because >TES 1 and 2 are too old, don't play the same as modern TES, don't have as much nostalgia, and would require entire reworks instead an asset swap job >TES 3 filters too many casuals >TES 5 doesn't really need a remake So by process of elimination, it's Oblivion. Personally I think TES 1 or 2 would be better candidates for a remake.

>>1090035 Play oblivion instead. If you don't like morrowind that's fine. If you mod it to hell and back for a first run you're not really playing morrowind anymore.

You think the remake will be good?

>>1090314 No.

I’m buying it full price. The deluxe edition. Seethe.

>>1090323 Ok todd no need to pretend

>>1090096 This is OUR time. You WILL return to the imperial city and white gold tower and you WILL like it

>non-Gamergay thread that's barely a few hours old >60+ replies Fuck.

>>1090314 I just want to see how they'll model the flame atronachs. No need to buy it for that.

>>1090342 Where else am I supposed to go?

>>1090323 Me too!

>>1090357 You're supposed to be in your office working, Todd.

>>1090357 One of Microsofts multiple Call Centers

>>1090372 Hallo Saar, please to be buying the oblivion remake. We make game brown like streets of Hyderabad blastard bitch benchod

>>1090425 That's who starts developing games as soon as a studio is acquired by Microsoft.

>rumor originates on 4/v/ >nearly every "news" site reporting on it is some random unknown site >BRO IT'S UNREAL ENGINE LIKE EVERY SINGLE OTHER GAME HAHA I don't know why people are still falling for this.

>>1090454 Based retard. The original leak was based on FTC documents. Then someone found a resume from an ex-Virtuos employee (people handling the remake, also did Dark Souls remaster) that mentioned working on an UE5/Gamebryo hybrid remake of Oblivion. Then Jeff Grubb and others confirmed the remake and said it was launching in April. Now, today, some random redditor used inspect element on the Virtous website and found all of these photos of the remaster that had been uploaded to the site today.

>>1089744 So for the first time one of those vaporware fan remakes might've actually released and Bethesda just goes "fuck you here is an official remake" kek

>>1090524 Shouldn’t have taken 14 years to make it lol

>>1090308 I still maintain Shadowkey and Battlespire are better candidates for remake >no mod support so nobody cares mod support is lost >can sell as a new game since only the ultrafans actually played either >you can make a combat system that's actually good and nobody will compare it negatively to the originals even if you do the most generic thing possible >in-fact a lot of deviation is acceptable >smaller in scope so less work for untested thing >actually built with co-op in mind In-fact, it's strange they haven't put Shadowkey on PC digital distribution >MS bought Nokia's phone stuff so they own the N-Gage brand and BIOS >they have no issues re-releasing games on PC in a pre-configured FOSS emulator wrapper (see dosbox) so they can just release it with whatever the current preferred NG emulator is with minimal work

>>1090524 >>1089977 >>1089979 >>1089998 Since Bethesda not only explicitly approved of the mod but apparently mentioned it in official promo stuff, and SKyblivion was meant to require Oblivion, the best realistic way Bethesda could handle this (short of just ignoring the launch) is to delist original Oblivion and include the original in any purchase of the remake (both Steam and GOG support this and many devs have used it to give access to old versions (for compatibility sake) while updating new ones. Since that would require sanity, there's no way they'll do that

I HATE AYLEID RUINS I HATE AYLEID RUINS I HATE AYLEID RUINS

>>1090590 I'm surprised they haven't rebooted Battlespire as a TES fallout 76

>>1090438 SAAR

>>1090254 You overestimate the normie game buyer, it won't be DOA. It won't have 'legs' though because of lacking mods. No one will buy the game at full price 5 years from now because they want a new questline mod or big titties, which is what drives new purchases of Skyrim and Oblivion to this day.

Well this looks like arse.

How long until we get a Skyrim modding project for this.

>>1089977 Skyblivion is the only game release I've been excited for for a long time. We'll see which is better but this remake seems to capture less of the Oblivion spirit with UE5. While Skyblivion still has that sexy charming saturated color scheme

>>1090035 Get the one that disables Dark Brotherhood attacks til you beat the game.

>>1089744 No.

I can't see myself replaying Oblivion to be honest.

>>1091476 You'd replay Oblivion now because you can mod it into something stupid or add questlines which you cant do with this

>>1091476 I could, but not the remaster that looks so grey and brown. Sometimes I catch myself looking at trees and thinking about replaying Oblivion or Morrowind, but only if I also get to be a teenager again and not have to worry about anything.

Hyped for this game. I love Oblivion.

>>1091420 Even the fucking water looks dry and dusty.

>>1091521 That's how your mom looked down there when I fucked her last night

>>1091536 That's stupid, that means you didn't make her wet

The only way I could ever see myself replaying oblivion is if the completely overhaul the level up system. Even then it would be a hard get me on board when I can just play Project Cyrodiil instead. >>1090590 >In-fact, it's strange they haven't put Shadowkey on PC digital distribution Yeah I'm surprised then never did a TES Travels collection considering how they still get referenced

>>1091519 I have to say, I am quite curious how this will turn out. I was never a fan of TES4's art style but I can't say this is any better.

>>1091519 The one thing that every mainline elder scrolls title has done right since morrowind and that's the soundtrack

>>1090035 For me the mod that finally made me play through the entire game after getting filtered multiple times was voices of Vvardenfell. I still read the text but it makes the world much more alive and more enjoyable

>>1091543 She's too old to get wet

Cant wait to play Oblivion again, game looks amazing.

I used to watch these back in the day.

Anyone here a /tesg/ refugee? It's where I received my last (you) from It's where I was when 4chan was kill I refreshed the page... and it was gone. Anyway I don't know how to feel about an Oblivion remake Why are they even doing this?

>>1091587 >Why are they even doing this? to flex on skybliviontrannies

>>1091587 I didn't browse that general but I am a refugee that used plenty of boards including /v/. Hello.

>>1091587 Why do you think?

>>1091587 Go bacck

Oblivion is a good game. But they just shut down a mod trying to add oblivion to Skyrim, so it functions like the mods that Might and Magic has where inventories and more can be transferred at any time. I don't think an official release will allow anything of that scale. Or Oblivion keeping it's magic system and not making it more like Skyrims.

>>1091596 Have you heard of the high elves?

>>1091599 I am one, go back

>>1091610 Where?

>>1091420 >>1091521 It's just a brown filter from 2010, shouldn't be too hard to remove

>>1091610 I hope things get better.

>>1091534 >>1091537 >>1091542 >>1091550 >>1091554 >>1091572 >>1091585 >>1091612 This corny jank-soul simply cannot be replicated in the current social and geopolitical environment, it needs a certain degree of "innocence" and "white welfare" which died in 2009 and got its corpse raped in 2014

>>1091617 To reddit, 4chan, tumblr etc. Go back to whence you came

>>1091596 I literally cannot go back, it's fucking down

>>1091652 You're all redditors so maybe go back there

>>1091420 Unreal only has two visual modes: brown and grey, or cartoonishly oversaturated.

So Joel, are you gonna stream this as a one-off or are gonna make a Sex in Oblivion song and pass it off as the real thing?

>>1091646 I agree that the style of Oblivion just does not fit the "HIRE THIS MAN" UE5 look. Yes, objectively this is higher fidelity, but I can't pretend it looks better from an artistic standpoint. It has the Breaking Bad Mexico filter. >soul Please leave your halfchan memes at the door during your stay. Thank you!

>>1091666 Nah, soul is actually good.

Bethesda (microshaft) wouldn't have been tempted to do this type of shit if OpenMW got off it's ass about 'post 1.0 de-hardcoding' just implemented OBScript like it needed to 2 years ago when loading ESM4 cells got implemented. >>1091374 "Legs" are what make up the bulk of a game's revenue, AAA doesn't like to acknowledge it but gaming is a long tail industry. Though you are probably right that it's not going to stop the normalfags from purchasing it. t. Game Dev

>>1091678 Nice bait I r8 it 8/8

>>1091659 Reminds my of a certain game people say is the best in the series

>>1091678 >assuming my potato laptop can run it Play the original then, duh

>>1091678 You should try Morrowind as well.

>>1091678 Go download the old GOTY release and grab a gorillion mods from one of those "Oblivion [current year]" lists people keep making, the vanilla game is too fucked up and the bethasda has no feasible way of fixing that. That way you also don't need to worry about performance woes.

>>1091689 Get mods

>>1091678 >assuming my potato laptop can run it Assume it won't, U5 is just unoptimized indian poop, along with RE Engine

>>1091678 I was in the middle of my first 'real' Oblivion run last month (only played in on PS3 for a few hours years ago) when there were still WHISPERS of the remake/remaster/retardation and then just sorta dropped it cause i forgot. Completely vanilla, I have to assume you can run it on bascially any GPU from the past decade. If I pick it up again, I'm skipping this new shit.

We have an ID filter, reminder not to reply to braindead cuckchan bait. That guy got six replies in minutes? Come on. >>1091671 I really wish the OMW devs were more aggressive about getting other Gamebryo games to work, I understand it's a lot of effort because TES4 is a different version of the engine and Fallout 3/NV are a different version to that, there's differences in NIF structure and engine architecture across all of them, but the speed they're going at is absolutely glacial. >"Legs" are what make up the bulk of a game's revenue That's generally true but it actually really depends on the game, apparently almost 90% of Final Fantasy 16's sales were in the first few days. In an extreme case of this being true, Dragon's Dogma's sales were almost entirely from 2016 onward, four years after launch. >AAA doesn't like to acknowledge it AAA operates in a completely different way to the rest of the industry and it's at times really strange, they also don't understand the rest of the industry very well. Look at how many ostensively indie studios are founded by former Blizzard/Ubisoft/Riot/Bethesda people, start acting like AAA studios by hiring hundreds of people, and go under before they get their first game out.

>>1091587 Why wouldn't they? Its not a huge investment for MS and this is an ideal release window, with VI still many years away and Skyblivion generating free marketing for the concept.

>>1091717 Frostpunk -> Frostpunk 2 is a pretty good and brutal example of this in general, as far as I know they were indie. They had a soulful first game that generated a core audience. They never did modding support for it and then blew up the studio 10x. Proceeded to drop a tremendous turd that had none of the charm and none of the fun of the first one making it some impersonal grand frostbound strategy. The only thing they carried over from the original was that there was a choice to go one way or the other with one being OP. They could literally release FP1 remastered with mod support and make tons of money.

>>1091703 Your loss then.

>>1091776 >Frostpunk 2 What a disaster that was, both as a game and in the business sense. They took an extremely original concept and turned it into a themed city builder. Technically Frostpunk was also a city builder, but it played like almost like an RTS without units and where your enemy was the weather. They apparently have 300 employees now? What the fuck, that's only a few dozen less than Valve. There is no reasonable explanation for them to have that many, Frostpunk 2 didn't have noticeably higher production values either.

>>1091823 > Frostpunk 2 didn't have noticeably higher production values either. It looked like shit and the only reason playing it during the winter was comfy was because it chugged my CPU/GPU so hard made my room hotter. > 300 employees Mother of god, did they higher some MBE or sell the company out to the public? They just flopped hard and even if it sold it will not have the goodwill to have month 1 performance they wish for so they'll just fire the only people worth a damn which are the ones earning top salaries. Accelerate the industry crash.

>>1091553 Yes, the music is god-tier.

>>1091553 >Since Morrowind DF's music is also great, though

I swear that this time I will finish Skyrim's story for the first time and not just slowly mod it into a porn game like I've been doing for over a decade.

>>1091873 Will you? Really?

>>1091873 They'll just keep breaking.

>>1091873 I've never actually finished Oblivion's main quest despite having played it many times since release, hundreds of hours. I always get bored or distracted halfway in and go do something else in the game.

>>1091873 I prefer Fallout for that because you can have sex with robots I mean because you can fuck the wildlife I mean so you can breed deathclaws I mean >>1091893 Oblivion has a much better main quest than Skyrim, in fact all of Oblivion's quests are better. There's nothing in Skyrim like Whodunit or A Brush With Death.

>>1091420 I honestly loved the piss filter of the late 2000s.

>>1089744 No, I don't think I will

>>1091717 OpenMW's NIF support is actually pretty up to date these days, everything beyond a few records that don't seem to do anything obvious are working, they just refuse to put in work on the engine mechanics of the newer games because they spend too much time talking about it and then handwave it away as being something for after the undefined 1.0 goal to stop the bikeshedding. >>1091888

>>1091898 Ah, of course, there's always the disaster scenario where they removed Jeremy SOULe OST because of Bethesda's animosity

>>1091420 >TES IV: Bad Company 2

>>1091420 Yeah, it doesn't have the high fantasy, Tolkienesque LOTR inspired fantasy / idyllic fairy tale feel TES Oblivion had.

Oblivion was saturated with greens and the landscape had a Shrek fairy tale appearance. ...I hope they didn't butcher that...

>>1091420 Anti-soul

>>1091956 Read the thread anon, literally brown mexico movie filter over all the screenshots

>>1091968 It's literally only one screenshot that has it lol Let's not pull this hyperbolic, histrionic bullshit here too

>>1091897 Frankly I haven't finished Skyrim's main quest either, but then I played a lot more of Oblivion than I did Skyrim.

>>1091968 Mexico filter is yellow. It's not THAT bad. Not Fallout 3 green filter bad either.

It looks so generic, like it was made out of generic market assets every other 2020s fantasy game is using You used to be able to tell games apart at a glance just by their idiosyncrasies

>>1092081 To be honest this is mostly a bloom nuke, and I love Oblivion to death

>>1092086 That's an exaggerated example, but the point is that literally nothing else looked like Oblivion, and now Oblivion looks like everything else

>>1092101 The price of success

>>1092129 You mean mist?

>>1092129 why the fuck did this horrible post make me chuckle

>>1092129 lel, one of my favorite shitposts, but seriously, if you play Morrowind, there's thick anti-soul gas everywhere because of the loading shenanigans Here's some more non-brown filter screens

>>1092101 >but the point is that literally nothing else looked like Oblivion Yeah, because it released on 7th gen consoles. Oblivion has always looked like Gothic with a GRAFIX budget.

>>1092171 >tfw in the middle of a 120h playthrough sigh...... guess I'll have to start over

>>1092303 >>tfw in the middle of a 120h playthrough Of what? OG Oblivion? Nah keep playing the original. There's so many ways they could've raped Oblivion is crazy, we don't if they left the physics intact for example, you know how you can drag and drop vases, platters and stuff in the OG? I love that shit. Imagine if they removed that because LOL UE5 We will soon find out

Todd potentially fixing the shitty dungeons, shitty voice acting, shitty graphics, shitty leveling etc. of Oblivion sounds tempting. I just hope that it's moddable as there will still be other things that need fixing.

>>1092318 not just that, it's a "no fast travel" and "no dialogue skipping" playthrough

>>1092318 also they can't leave the physics shenanigans out since multiple quests depend on them hell the fucking tutorial has you shooting a bucket and retrieving the arrow afterwards, and then there's the end of the TG quest line

>>1092324 >I just hope that it's moddable Isn't it UE5? It's over I think

>>1092324 >Fixing I would bet $100 that it's going to be 150GB of poorly or un-compressed assets with translation layer jank to run UE5 as a skin over the original engine and performance will be Capcom-tier.

>>1092340 another one, molag bal's quest makes you drop a mace so the nearby NPC can pick it up and kill you with it

>>1092324 Knowing modern Bethesda, they'll probably make it worse somehow. Remember Starfield?

>>1092360 >Remember Starfield? People actually blindly dropped 70 bucks for that turd and it still makes me insanely mad. Also because it stole Armored Core 6 momentum, I remember people being like "lmao who cares about AC6 I gotta buy Starfield soon"

>>1092360 Fuck. I hope that Skyblivion's devs haven't already hanged themselves with this leak.

>>1092395 How could anyone want to play fucking Starfield over AC6? It's the most boring Bethesda game known to man.

>>1092209 The very first thing you saw outside the tutorial sewer being a hideously low res vista with textures from an N64 cartridge is still funny to me, and it was incredibly easily fixed on day one by a tiny change to the distance LOD

>>1092395 Neither of those games are good

>>1092507 It may be good by todays standards but imo it's completely overrated and boring.

>>1092360 >Remember Starfield? Oh yeah. I pirated it day one because I wanted to get in on the shitposting and sad to say all of the negativity was 100% justified even with the rock-bottom expectations that were going around. I like to think that I approached it with an open mind but even so I found almost nothing to interest me. I think what really cinched it for me was one dialogue with an NPC - Lin, your boss in the intro. If you find her and add her to your ship's crew later in the game and then ask her about her life, you get to hear her story. This one little obscure scrap of writing and acting is about on par with a moderately interesting side conversation in CP2077 and makes her the best NPC in the entire game despite the fact that she's effectively just furniture for your ship. I can't properly explain it but something about that feels totally emblematic about the game as a whole. >>1092395 I like my mechs on the stompy-shooty side. Gott strafe PGI; MWLL is better than anything they've ever shat out.

It's as the elder scrolls foretold..

>>1092343 Leaks said it's UE5 for graphics + the old engine for the rest

>>1093077 Do you not understand how engines work? xD

>>1093136 Don't you people get tired of this cope? You all already got BFTO'd by the leaks already.

You're going to DIE in here, 4channer You're going to DIE

>>1093330 Probably, the estimates say 3-4 weeks.

>>1093151 Okay sub 40IQ retard, explain how a game uses 2 game engines for different parts of the game at the same time?

>>1089744 oh boy, i can't wait to find out they're going to make a season pass for remasters of 20 year old dlc

>>1089977 >mfw I am selling horse armor dlc as park of the deluxe edition of a remaster

>>1093398 >seething this hard The fact you remake denying faggots can't cope that it isn't real anymore really mindbroke you huh? Kek.

wew lad

>>1091420 I was hoping they'd make Cyrodiil a jungle again. That's the one thing about Oblivion which really fucking pissed me off.

>>1093583 Something something Tiber Septim something something changed the climate in the past as well.

>>1093479 nice thumbnail

>>1093077 >UE5 graphics >Ancient engine being kept on life support for everything else So it's going to run like double shit?

>>1091671 I fully understand their policy of OpenMW being focused on MW till 1.0. Scope creep kills. >2 years ago Technically loading Oblivion cells is even older than that, but it was a personal project done on an ancient version of the engine.

>>1093715 >So it's going to run like double shit?

>>1093678 lol. That's the other thing though. Explaining away inconsistencies with even more retarded lore (ackshually Arena and Daggerfall Khajiits are just one of the many types!) or retarded shit that doesn't even make sense (Tiber Septim was CHIM'd up so he turned Detroit into Portland) or turning the lore breaking into canon lore (Dragon Break, this is so retarded that it rolls back to being good) They should've just retconned the dumb shit from Arena and Daggerfall that didn't fit Morrowind and retconned the cool shit from Morrowind that didn't fit their retarded visions for Oblivion, Skyrim and ESO.

>>1093725 Yeah the lore is needlessly convoluted but that also makes it fascinating in it's own way. At least that one jap making VIGILANT was able to weave a narrative people seem pretty drawn into with all the dragon breaks, coda, & CHIM shit.

>>1090357 On a torrent tracker. This "make this game fun yourself" shit is awful.

>>1089777 For old times sake?

>>1093832 I want to go back and play through the rest of that guy's mods but it's hard justifying another Skyrim install knowing all the shit I'd have to install.

>>1092395 >>1093398 >Okay sub 40IQ retard, explain how a game uses 2 game engines for different parts of the game at the same time? https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=Translation+layer >>1093725 >That's the other thing though.

Yeah, nah. I'm not about to defend every lore decision but holes being patched retroactively was never the issue - the issue is that Bethesda just stopped giving a shit. Take Vampires, for example. Not only in Oblivion but in Skyrim itself there's a book that says that the Vokilhar clan have a freezing breath and lived under remote, haunted lakes. In Morrowind there are references to at least two more clans of vampires in eastern Skyrim. Then, after Skyrim, Bethesda creates an ENTIRE DLC all about vampires in Skyrim - specifically clan Vokilhar, which is the one mentioned in the book - and... They're just boring, generic vampires who live in a boring generic vampire castle. No ice lakes, no freezing breath, just formal outfits, bats and a chip on their shoulder. More egregiously, there isn't even an ATTEMPT to square this with the existing lore. No conversation joking about how they used to live in lakes, no off-hand mention of how they exterminated the rival clans in the area, nothing. They didn't care enough about the existing lore to design around it and they didn't even care enough to retcon it - they just ignored it.

>>1092599 Image isn't realistic because MSAA and Bloom were in heavy effect in 2003, while also MSAA is barely used in anything today because of the ugly vasoline filter known as TAA.

FUCK I wish 4chanvg was up when the Oblivion remake pictures were leaked so I could've BTFO'd all the /tesg/ faggots who kept denying the remake was real

>>1093725 People generally liked the Khajiit forms and dragon breaks because they served to make the setting more distinct, while the jungle retcon served to make it more generic. It would've irked people with or without the CHIM explanation, same for gutting Nord religion in Skyrim or whatever goofy shit they're plotting for Hammerfell.

>>1094140 Save it for if 4chan returns. There's two weeks to wait.

>>1094140 They were denying that? Last time I was in there to ask about a mod it was being discussed and although they were saying it was going to be shit I don't recall most people denying its existence. What will REALLY be spicy, though, is if they're making TESVI using the same approach of the old engine with a UE5 skin and the Oblivion test balloon crashes and burns. Given that the entire reason that M$ bought them out was for TESVI I can't see TESVI getting outright canceled but if it's another flop then Bethesda is going to get taken out behind the woodshed and then sold for parts.

>>1094174 Virtuos is doing the remaster, not Bethesda themselves, so I doubt anything about it (be it sales, gameplay changes, or engine tricks) will be indicative of VI's future.

>>1094317 >so I doubt anything about it (be it sales, gameplay changes, or engine tricks) will be indicative of VI's future. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. The old engine was already barely wheezing along for Starfield so either way it should be interesting.

>>1094073 Pic even makes fun of ghosting which is a byproduct of TAA

>>1089744 why is the remake so brown?

>>1094140 Who would deny that though? I mean, yeah, I'd ask for proofs but I also not be surprised in the slightest. Are there people genuinely still covering for shittesda?

UMM SKYBLIVIONBROS?

>>1092036 There's a weird dim filter from the website itself over every image in the leak so while I'm not happy with that disgusting browned out screenshot of the prison exit I'll at least wait to see if that's what it actually looks like

>>1093398 probably something like the base game engine is loaded as a DLL by the UE game. the UE game has no logic, it just queries the base game each frame for the game state, positions of objects etc and renders.

>soul >soul >soul Refugees PLEASE >>1092209 Beyond Gothic being way more brown, their art styles are quite different. Oblivion is considerably more stylized. If anything the remake looks more like Gothic.

>>1093398 gee iunno, guess diablo 2 resurrected just fuckin works like some black magic lol????

>>1089744 No Todd I won’t buy it again.

looks good

>>1095245 God I am so sick of that UE5 look, I don't know why it irks me.

>>1095270 just use reshade to pump the colors up

Why Oblivion though? Wouldn't remaking Morrowind be a better choice?

>>1095306 morrowind is like 99% text based, and current gaymer generation can't read they'd have to record every single fucking thing the NPCs say

>>1095270 it is what it is I'll 100% it before giving my final verdict I hope we get shivering isle and other dlcs

they're going to keep the original voices, right? it will be a travesty if all guards aren't just wes johnson

>>1095306 >not as many people played Morrowind >Bethesda believes The Modern Audience wouldn't like its mechanics I would have liked to see an Arena remake, largely because Arena isn't a particularly great game and I'd like to see how it could be reinterpreted. Yes, I'm very aware that's monkey's paw wish.

>>1095374 that already exists, and it's called ESO :^)

>>1095374 How would you even remake that?

>>1095393 > includes base gay & dlc cunny

>>1095245 >Three houses away >Things start to get hazy I hate this.

>>1095393 AI dlc content?

>>1095306 Morrowind is harder to remaster because of the inherent JANK

>>1095389 Having actually played Arena, unlike 90% of TES fans who've only played Skyrim then pretend they've played the rest, I have some ideas. >keep the instanced areas, but redesign the towns >make the combat closer to something like Kingdom Come >add in real quest lines besides the main quest >keep the dungeons large and expansive, maybe even largely keep their design, but improve them graphically and add some degree of verticality >make magic less janky >overhaul levelling >more armor and shield types >actual mechanical differences between the 20~ weapons >expand the potion system >actually explain the mechanics and what things do

>>1095245 >Three houses away >Things start to get hazy I love this.

>>1093479 diviner crusader and sheogorath?

>>1095309 the need to VA everything pretty much singlehandedly killed the RPG genre

>>1093394 That reminds me, we haven't seen a single NPC/race, just a player model from the back using the mitrhil armor

>>1095270 >>1095419 >>1095464 tbh those are blurry upscaled screens with the brightness pumped up, the OG screens are basically jpeg artifacts and really dark, see the third screen here >>1092171

>>1095482 That's the promo CGI model, not in-game

>>1095470 Guarantee they changed to some generic Unreal sloppa. Character creation will be entirely different.

>>1095466 I wouldn't agree, but it definitely hurt it. Disco Elysium released in 2019, but the game got minor attention until 2021 when they released The Final Cut, which added in voice acting. A lot of gamers will not sit down to read large portions of text.

>>1095489 dumbass, this is the imperial legion armor this will be ingame this is (YOU)

>>1095490 >Guarantee they changed to some generic Unreal sloppa Good.

Did anyone notice how the armor that appears in most of promotional renders in skyrim is a low tier armor

>>1095525 because that armor has the most "sovl"

>>1095525 It's the studded leather armor yeah

>>1095525 Don't you know? That's John Skyrim and he's the mascot of Elder Scrolls.

>>1095495 I'm.... The Hero of Kvatch....?!

>>1095454 Isn't most of those what they did for Morrowind? > t. never played Arena

>>1095547 Morrowind doesn't play anything like the first two TES games, it might have well been a series reboot. Arena is a dungeon crawler closer to classic CRPGs like Akalabeth. For instance, Arena is not open world; you use a world map to travel between locations. The game also has no bounty system, you can grind against city guards as much as you like. And yes, I said grind. Arena has an XP system, you don't level up by using skills. That would change in Daggerfall.

>>1095529 Heavy steel set looks better.

Sure, this is fun and all, but I think I'd rather save my money for the Redguard remake; that is no doubt in the works as we speak.

>>1095616 Yeah it's called TESVI And you will play as Malcolm X (fantasy edition) II.

>>1093394 There's always some nagging issue with all of the mainline elderscrolls I have played. For Morrowind, it's the dice rolls which broke my immersion, in Oblivion it's the way the characters look, and in Skyrim it's the dumbing down of the rpg mechanics. It reminds me of the Mass Effect series but this is much less disappointing to me

If the devs do a good enough job remastering Oblivion, it shouldn't even need mod support. But I really doubt they are going to make it good enough to say this and mod support ensures longevity and more sales

>>1095651 >If the devs do a good enough job remastering Oblivion, it shouldn't even need mod support. An enormous amount of Oblivion's mods were original content. I don't want to be rude, but this remark implies a huge ignorance of the modding scene.

>>1095651 >it shouldn't even need mod support Mod support isn't cool just because it fixes the base game That's nice too but there is much more to that. I want good mod support in every game, even the 9/10s

You know given that this remaster is being done by another team in a UE5 wrapper, there's a good chance it ends up looking "better" than the actual TES VI, since Starfield shows Bethesda is adamant about never improving, getting better artists, or a new engine (or meaningfully improving Gamebryo) I'm still not a fan of the remaster's aesthetic but on raw technical aspects it already looks more modern than Starfield

>>1095659 >An enormous amount of Oblivion's mods were original content Yes and your point? I modded Oblivion with at least 100 mods at one point. >>1095673 And I agree. All games should have mod support but I still hope the game ends up being good despite that. Saying this however there is not a snowballs chance in hell I'm buying the game lol

>>1095674 >on raw technical aspects it already looks more modern than Starfield The interesting thing about Starfield's graphics is they're not necessarily "outdated", because there was never a point where games actually looked like that. All of Bethesda's games achieve that strange aesthetic, compare Fallout 3 with other '08 games.

>>1095525 That seems to be a Bethesda standard at this point, like how they give you a full set of power armour in FO4 in the first 10 minutes.

>>1095616 Todd, why are you competing with your own products?

>>1095651 Has anyone played the demon souls original + the demon souls remake? they should have a good gauge about the quality since the same team that did that remake is doing the oblivion remake

>>1095707 >like how they give you a full set of power armour in FO4 in the first 10 minutes. God I hated that game >>1092324 It's not even Bethesda that is remastering the game so there's a chance it will be better than anything Bethesda has ever made like another game they published although it would certainly be a mark against them if there is no mod support which wouldn't surprise me

>>1095306 would require way way more effort than oblivion. Really I'm more surprised they didn't go for either fallout 3 or new vegas for how otherwise shit fallout's been doing aside from amazon jewish slop. Besides, maybe if NuBlivion sells well we might get a morrowind remake, though a fallout 3/new vegas remaster would be more marketable for the aforementioned amazon jewslop.

>>1095707 and it's in dogshit condition on top of the core being nearly empty, you pretty much dump it immediately after since it also sells for pennies it'd be like giving you a daedroth to fight in the tutorial, except you have to use the equipment scavenged off a dremora valkynaz, which just happens to be an enchanted daedric warhammer (90 weight), cuirass (60 weight), greaves (38 weight) and boots (18 weight), all at like 15-25% condition, which would render you immobile (max carry weight in the tutorial is 150 iirc, and the whole set weighs 206) and unable to repair it (need journeyman in armorer for that)

>>1095707 Devils advocate, it's not the exact same PA as on the box but still fuck fallout 4 so much. I'm forcing myself to actually play it this time until Oblivion Remastered comes out. I keep hearing Far Harbor is good but for fallout 4 I take that as "good" for fallout 4. I had a shit ton of hours on 76 which moves way faster so it really feels like a fucking slog. Even Shartfield feels faster.

>>1089856 looks very comfy, especially the second pic

I hope the remake revamps the arena and makes it grander

>>1095777 Do you have the mod that fixes the gay ass loading screens capped at 60fps?

>>1095794 i wasnt aware there was one

>>1089856 I played a bit of daggerfall but I found it ultimately too dated in too many ways unlike Morrowind which holds up well But I'm looking forward to this, with modern tech, more time and experience who knows what they can come up with

>>1095797 Fix the loading screens and the game will feel much faster

>>1095792 Nah, the game is going to be 1:1 size wise, or else it would be a full remake.

>>1095792 it's a remaster, not a remake

>>1095828 So it's like just a graphics mod?

>>1095828 If only it was a remake. I'm expecting a whole host of bugs that they are going to make by remastering the game in another engine

>>1095797 https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/73469

>>1095839 basically, just fancier grafix i have no idea how this shit is even possible, but if it's like diablo 2 resurrected, then it should be gucci as far as performance goes at least

it can go either way but if it's just a 1:1 remake that'd be such a waste at least the leaks confirmed they fixed some of the mechanics

>>1089882 Just played that game and I'm pretty disappointed in it. Definitely not a fan of the ui.

>>1092395 Armored slop 6 was trash

>>1094899 its because the phrase "oblivion remake with unreal engine graphics" screams 'my dad works at nintendo, bethesda hire this man' shit

>>1096004 It was better than AC5

Moderately excited to play oblivion remaster but I'm not buying it lol. I just hope the game looks great and they balance the gameplay better. It will be better than having the game crash every 10 minutes due to mods

>>1096189 and thats all it was

>>1095393 Nice AI bro

>>1096674 look at mr private eye here

>>1094140 Some people were denying it but it could have also just been a bad reaction to the guy shitposting about it all fucking day and using babytalk.

>>1094140 I was on /tesg/ when the site stopped working, I'm mad I'm not getting to shitpost about this on /v/ and /vg/ Sharty has to pay for this

>>1096817 You got sharted on lol. Stay mad cuckchanner

>>1090357 Six feet underground, preferably.

>>1096817 I want to know what the remake NPCs look like. Those were the most iconic part of Oblivion. >>1096836 You should be thankful you're getting the traffic.

>>1096876 >iconic More like infamous.

>>1096876 >You should be thankful you're getting the traffic. Why so you can screw back off to the place you came from as soon as it comes back online? Enjoy getting datamined by hiromoot retard

Just rebuild my modlist from scratch Here's how it look so far Im looking for a good farmhouse retextur emod if anyone knows one

>>1096876 so far, we've only seen some goblins

Oh man this is happening, I wonder what kind of mod support it will have. Will we see a second coming of Oblivion modding?

>>1096922 >mod support You'd think it'd be a given for a Bethesda game but with them switching engines, I gotta wonder if it won't be as easy to do so.

>>1096898 Can you show us your modlist?

>>1096942 here https://paste.gd/xvxm7CAy#

>>1096922 The engine is nowhere near moddable as the usual one Bethesda uses.

>>1096922 It's more likely that will happen whenever Oblivion gets working on OpenMW in 15 years. Like how Daggerfall had an explosion in modding with Daggerfall Unity. Speaking of which, do any of you know if DFU messes with the drop rates? I don't remember high weapon tiers being so rare. When I originally played Daggerfall on DOS I could swear I got Daedric stuff within 5 hours.

>>1097003 It depends on the modding tools they develop for it I guess

>>1096922 They using some mix of UE5 for the graphics and and the Creation Engine for some amount of the rest, we'll have to see how that pans out. Either way, with it being UE5 it's probably going to look like absolute shit outside of screenshots and slow cinematics.

Wonder if character creation will allow us to make autistic characters.

>>1097025 You start finding them in both loot tables and shops roughly around 10, you can find them early but it's pretty rare. Once you start getting higher levels they drop very frequently.

>>1096980 Thanks. I'm going to apply some of the gameplay mods

Please tell me the double engine rumors are true and the game is actually moddable

>>1092036 >apologizing for multi-billion dollar international corporations >>1092324 Why would you assume literally any of that would be fixed? They're going to copy over all existing assets and not even pay the voice actors for a secondary license to the use of their voice. >>1095651 >you shouldn't be allowed to have fun in your own way; the developers should be supported in whatever they do to improve their game in their own way! Hmm.

>>1097078 As I said I don't support buying it

>>1097066 i haven't touched the gameplay yet, beside True directional Movement It's still a bit messy as i've only started yesterday and there's still mods to add

>>1097076 No

>>1091587 yeah but the rest is 100% rotting in their pisscord good riddance i say

>>1097239 thats an amazing picture lmfao

>>1091587 I am. I missed the whole shitshow that was happening at 4chan because I was too busy roleplaying as shovel knight in Morrowind.

>>1097588 That an Imperial or a Nord?

>>1096922 >>1096933 If its still gamebryo under the hood I would expect it to still be moddable, the question is how new assets would interact with the UE5 overlay and whether they officially support it. We might very well see full support if they play nice together, just with different techniques for adding new graphical assets. If not, we might still see gimped mod support like on PS where you can't add new assets, though in that case or with no support at all I imagine most of the modding scene will hold out for Skyblivion.

i feel like there's gonna be a really uncanniness to the game if its unreal on top of gamebryo. take beautiful unreal graphics and put it on top of an old engine with jank animations and it's gonna feel like some indie shit.

>>1097771 If the rumors about combat changes are true they probably made at least some new animations.

>>1097637 He's a Breton.

>>1094317 >>1094364 Ah, and I forgot to mention that one of the main things that makes me think that they might be using this hacky method for TESVI is because a company like Virtuos is involved with the Oblivion remaster. Virtuos uses the TESIV remaster as a test bed for finding a way to have CE wear UE5 like a skinsuit with minimal art/writing/etc. input from Bethesda while Bethesda works on TESVI using CE and UE5 and then once the abomination is functional enough they integrate all of it.

lol

>>1089856 >They also brought the original composer back, the tracks they've posted are very DOS CRPG. They should poach Jeremy Soule since Bethesda dropped him.

The fact that there's no NPC screenshots is very telling, the odds of FaceGen being gone are low

I'm torn between this being a good thing and a bad thing

>>1098809 >>1098930

Are there a morrowind mods that adds bunch more of fun racisms? In dialog or mb places that aren't accessible to certain races? Tamriel rebuild had some neat moments at Firemoth Keep

The tamriel rebuilt mods so far have been amazing, makes me wish I knew how to mod so I could contribute.

A few days ago, I created the prefect FCOM better cities Unique landscapes modlist for Oblivion. I used optimisers and lossless scaling to run better cities with good performance this time so I think I will stick with that for now. Whether this remaster is good or not depends on a few things. For one I would atleast expect an engine reimplementation similar to skyrim speical edition. If its the same old rinkity dinkity unstable oblivion underneath than this is trash.

I don't get the dual engine thing? The source for that was from some former employees resume? Who's to say he put gamebyro on it because they were porting the old code over to unreal. I honestly just don't see how you can use unreal just for the graphics but have the "backend" be gamebyro. Seems like more work to mesh the 2 together to even freaking work rather than just make everything in unreal. Also, the earlier leaks never mentioned gamebyro at all.

>>1099192 There was a game shadow dropped called Ninja Gaiden 2 Black that runs the old Sigma 2 game under the hood with the unreal wrapper retargeting animations and character logic to the new assets. My guess is that this will be the same as that. Hopefully they ported oblivion to a newer version of gamebryo at least(probably not)

>>1099287 >Hopefully they ported oblivion to a newer version of gamebryo at least(probably not) What's the concern if they didn't?

>>1099454 For starters, Oblivion never properly purges memory, so every time you reload a save small bits of info will carry over from your old playsession to your new save. This may not sould like a big deal for a vanilla playthough,but this is greatly exastrabated with mods. In a modded playthough it becomes essential to reboot your game everytime you reload your save or else your save files will become corrupted after 50-60 hours.Secondly, Oblivion can only use 2 CPU cores, so any mods that add stuff to worldspace(like better cites) cause you game to run like a slideshow. You can claw back a few frames with DXVK and LS to offload some of the work to you GPU, but your game wont run that well. Thirdly, the game is an unstable piece of crap. You need to pile on mods to make the game tolerable, but you will still crash every two to three hours with a big modlist. This is in the acceptable range but Id rather have little to none at all. They gave the engine reimplementation to Skyrim when Oblivion is the game that really needs it. This remaster should be the Skyrim Special Edition for Oblivion.

>>1099565 There's some kind of fps booster mod on nexus that uses obse. Man i remember the time when combining successfully Unique Landscapes and Open Better Cities was a thing. During the time when load order had to be sorted manually and every lvl list from all them fancy FCOM (Frann, Warcry, OOO, Martigen's Monster Mod) had to be merged in wrye bash's level lists. Its puny in comparison to having to reload every fucking animation patch for skyrim porn mods though. Speaking of which those games are Adolf Hitler. Ultimate time waste. You don't even play if you start doing this shit, you just tinker mods for weeks.

>>1099565 Ah so that's why my performance kept getting worse the longer my playthrough with the same set of mods

>>1099666 Are you talking about this one? https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/7706?tab=posts I never considered using it since its so old I thought it might be depreciated. Instead I used the Better cities optimizer which gave me 20fps. Im not sure this mod will make a difference since I have optimizers already along with oblivion reloaded(which this mod could conflict with). Did you ever use this?

>>1099753 And you were lucky. The memory leaking issues for the ps3 Bethesda games were even worse. I remember my brothers' OG skyrim playthrough back in 2013 on the ps3. Every three hours the games performance would go to crap and the game would need to be restarted(which took forever) And the game would run at a permanent 15 fps once your playthrough passed 100 hours. I'm surprised people tolerated that garbage.

>>1091420 This looks depressing as fuck what happened to all the color?

>>1091420 >>1101306 bethesda hired that man... everything is now overgrown and dilapidated. what a shit way to ruin an iconic style.

>>1101397 I don't know what exactly it is about the remake that makes it look so dull and uninteresting compared to the original. Maybe it's just the bland colors, or aping the overly realistic look of every other AAA turd? Whatever remake studio this is they seem to be completely oblivious to what made the original look so cozy and inviting. The remake screenshots look so muddy and dull it doesn't even look like a fantasy game anymore, more like that old "Mario/Homer Simpson but in real life" hyper realism meme applied to Oblivion.

I hate how Bethesda made Cyrodiil generic medieval fantasy. Makes me so thankful that the TR team is using the old lore for the Cyrodiil Morrowind mod. Just look at this Cyrodiil steel armor. It looks so exotic and cool. Why can't The Elder Scrolls look exotic and alien anymore?

>>1095635 With the Oblivion remake, hopefully the characters will look better if you're looking to get back into the series. I know there are mods to make Morrowind's combat more "modern" but I can't name any because I like the dice roll combat. Maybe once OpenMW finally picks up the pace on supporting newer Bethesda games, someone can port Oblivion's combat system back into Morrowind.

>>1101531 Its the Ayleid ruins, the bright white stone was iconic and made them pop out against the scenery. The rest doesn't look that bad and might just a darker time of day, but making the ruins such a dull grey kills the contrast and blends the whole shot into a brownish smear.

>>1101796 If I wanted dice rolls I'd play Dragon Age Origins or BG3. Having it in a first person game makes no sense to me. A modern equivalent would be like having a competitive fps game but with dice rolls.

>>1101789 Wake up, we're here. Why are you shaking? Are you ok? Wake up. Stand up... there you go. You were coping. What's your name? Well, not even last night's 4chins hack could wake you. I heard them say we've reached 8chan, I'm sure they'll let us post. Quiet, here comes Todd. You better buy what he says.

>>1091943 by comparison Bad Company 2's colorgrading was VERY tasteful. this is really BF3 level or worse.

>>1101531 >>1101847 Here's a crude example of what I mean. A simple texture mod would work wonders here.

>>1091883 those first two are incredible. I must have somewhat overlooked them in the past.

Man, this site is slow. Seems like the vtuber and gacha generals are going at their normal rate, but literally everything else is snail speed. If 4chan was still up we'd have at least 4 different threads flying by about this news (most of it bait).

>>1102448 Most of the 4chan refugees are split between several other altchans or archive sites.

>>1102470 I'd imagine this would be the biggest place people would go to. Sticking around archives sounds terrible tbh fam.

>>1102448 This is a bit off topic but part of the reason I stopped using 4chan a decade ago was because it became so fast. It's a lot easier to have actual (sometimes) rewarding discussions when threads don't fly by all the way to bumplock within a few hours.
