The upcoming Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion remake, reportedly developed by Virtuos and powered by Unreal Engine 5, is set to feature significant graphical and gameplay overhauls, making it a full-fledged reimagining rather than a simple remaster.
I’m excited. Oblivion was incredible because it was a fantasy world that I wanted to be in. Skyrim was so cold and damp, whereas Oblivion was more varied and felt like the home I’ve never had.
Oblivion had some really nice areas but also some damp swampy areas I had no desire to be in! I actually prefer the cold dry snowy areas over damp areas!
The idea of remaking Oblivion is crazy.
Isn’t what everyone loves about this game the weird dialogue and presentation style? Hard to imagine how they remake this game and make everyone happy with the final result.
I’ll still play it. It’s my favorite game ever and I’m curious how this will look.
No, that’s just the memes that have survived. At the time it was considered a good fantasy RPG.
It will end up just like the RE2 Remake and Silent Hill 2 Remake. The new people who never played the original will love it, but fans of the original will either hate it or be mixed on it. But publishers literally do not care about existing customers, so they won’t care what existing fans have to say on it as long as the new people buy it. Reviewers will overrate the remakes because the original was so highly regarded. Same story as most remakes, really.
I’ve not seen much down talk on RE2make. RE3make on the other hand… I thought they did great with 2, but I wish they’d included the parts they cut out. Those spiders…
Bethesda finally upgrades from its Creation Engine.
“Well, that only took 20 f*cking years!”
I have 0 interest until I hear it has mod support and they don’t lock it into their “creation club” only.
