I hope they manage to get it complete, and good. Giving Oblivion another try (this time exploring the rest of the world instead of focusing on the boring main quest) has been on my list for a while, and improved graphics would be welcome.
That font, though... not a good choice for quickly delivering information. Mods to the rescue?

They need to. Strong rumours that Bethesda has tasked a studio to remake Oblivion in a different engine.

Funny, for me it's the other way around. I probably played a couple hundred hours of Oblivion back in the day: modding, exploring and restarting. Never once finished the main quest. I'm thinking Skyblivion might be my chance to finally do it.

Oblivion without the comically fucked-up levelling system sounds like a blast

Frankly Bethesda would do very well with remastering all their previous tes games, including the first two.
I would really like to play Morrowind with the option of a modern UI instead of dragging windows around and clicking stuff

Sweet, then I could finally play oblivion instead of giving up after the 34th crash

I bought oblivion six years ago in anticipation of this release. Just another couple of years until it's done.

A remaster for the first too wouldn't be enough, I figure. I played daggerfall unity and it just does not hold up. A full on remake would be interesting, but they'd have to go hard, and reconceptualize a lot.

I'm waiting for skyrim and oblivion to be remade in OpenMW

A different engine? Are you sure? They just buffed up their creation engine 2 for Starfield.

That's me with every Bethesda game I played. I don't even treat them as games to beat, just worlds to run around in.

Even if they do, I feel like both projects will have different enough approach to things to avoid making the other obsolete. Maybe... possibly.
I'll certainly take the unofficial remake over the Bethesda one due to lower requirements and lack of Creation Club. That, and I'm just more interested in the fan interpretation of Cyrodiil to be honest.

Yeah an ex Virtuos developer said they had been working on a remake in UE5 for Bethesda. Can’t find the reference but it was a big rumour a while ago.

I really hope so! It seems like such a no brainer, get a studio to remake the bulk of it and keep creative control. I came into TES world in Skyrim and would love to go back through them but I’m a snob for a modern looking game now.

just worlds to run around in
Which, ironically, was why I only played the main quest in Starfield vanilla. Running around empty, boring planets, with copy-pasted dungeons (there's only, what, 10 varieties?), felt like nothing but a colossal waste of time.
So glad I didn't pay for it (Gamepass, with apologies to my Linux friends).

Let's see who can do it better, BGS or unpaid indie devs.
My money is not on BGS.

Starfield never really grabbed my attention so I thankfully dodged a bullet with that one.

No need to apologise, people should have the option to play games however they want.

I remember playing both Morrowind and Oblivion with like a ton of notes on how exactly to level up my character, not to min/max but to keep the game from scaling the difficulty too much.
I’d rather see a remake of Morrowind over Oblivion, though. I have the game on GOG but I don’t have the time in my life to go through all the mods to make it playable (especially getting the journalling system up to par with modern games).

Morrowind was better than oblivion and Skyrim. Skyrim was good but Morrowind was so well done.
