Can't wait to be disappointed for getting my hopes up when I really shouldn't have in about 2 hours.

I’ve heard they are revamping the combat to be not dogshit. I wonder if they have made any changes to quests

>empty fake rpg consolized goyslop with proc gen terrain and terrible combat >but this time it has RTX (it still looks like shit) I hate modern gaming, the fact that a remake of shitblivion will sell is demoralization at its finest

>>26136 but the combat is easily the best out of any TES game

>>26133 Make unhinged shitposts on how "my" NVIDIA GeForce 6800 / ATI Radeon X800 ran OG Oblivion just fine but now they can't run the "same" game, possibly throwing in some "lmao DEImake" by spamming screenshots of the Type A / Type B in the character creator.

I'll probably go see if the AI is still broken enough to cause gang wars between npc factions. My original run I accidently started riots between the beggars and guards in bravil and then later thanks to a random mythic dawn ambush and some friendly fire a war between imp battlemages and the students of the mage's academy. They all ended up killing each other for the entire rest of that game.

>>26138 Elaborate because I think it’s by far the worst. Everything is a damage sponge and you hit like a wet noodle

I will wait for the fitgirl repack

I will wait for the fitgirl repack

>>26141 ...that is not the fault of the combat, but scaling you retard if you're running into damage sponges, lower the difficulty or learn to properly build a character

>>26133 I'm gonna go to the market district and rob some stores

>>26133 I've never played Oblivion despite having purchased it some time ago during a Steam winter sale. Should I even bother at this point now that a remake has been announced?

>>26142 >>26143 HE POSTED IT TWICE EVERYONE LAUGH

>>26138 magic was better in Oblivion because touch spells, more options, being able to equip weapons and shields while casting spells, and spell making and I honestly think the archery was slightly better (something about the arrow trajectory physics felt more realistic), but skyrim's melee combat was far better than Oblivions

Probably an unarmed build assuming toddot doesn't remove it

>>26144 >The Flame Atronach

you guys have a character planned?

>>26133 What am I going to do? Probably be a stealth archer and a bit of a mage as a retarded cute Nord woman again.

>>26149 Yeah same, I've wanted to play a martial artist build for years

Join me in laughing at these dumb niggers when it doesn’t shadowdrop.

>>26143 I can't look at Konata the same way after those RADIOHEAD doujins

I will not be buying it as I'm bored to tears by Oblivion. I will be observing the people crying about the "soul" of the original Oblivion and its awful level scaling.

>>26151 strength, endurance blunt, block, heavy armor, alchemy, armorer, restoration, alteration because i'm boring like that and warhammers are OP >>26150 immediately after getting to frostcrag i will test the raw model replacement

By Azura, did you hear? The Pope, murdered!

A delivery of fresh copium just dropped

>>26157 Fuck, they better not screw over modders in the remaster

>>26160 You know they will. Bethesda likes to claim to be Mod friendly, but they would 100% prefer to monetise everything in the game

>>26157 >>26160 They need to honor Lord Justin

>>26144 I've seen you defend Oblivion's scaling/leveling before and I'm sorry my man, but it's terrible. Infamously so. If you're not intentionally leveling for combat it's very easy to fall behind. You'd have to know how to "correctly" level beforehand, and you could fix most shitty leveling systems by optimizing it with guides like that. Your suggestions are more of a bandage on a fundamentally bad system, I've built broken characters by never leveling up and thus never trigger the scaling, that's also a way to avoid. Though I will say this is by no means a problem unique to TES4, having to look up how to build a character is a problem in every TES from 1 through 4 and arguably the worst in Daggerfall, only Skyrim "fixed" it and that's by not being an RPG anymore. Oblivion is still a game I like in spite of all that, one can critique something they enjoy. I like your girlfriend, though. Is she a good cuddler? Gotta have a lot of potion of resist fire for the lovely gal >>26159 >first image That is not true, I've seen ESRB ratings come years in advance.

>>26143 feet

>>26151 youre assuming they wont have simplified it and made it skyrim 2.0

>>26163 >I've seen you defend Oblivion's scaling/leveling before no you haven't, i will be the first to admit that it's shit but claiming it makes the game unplayable is simply retarded

>>26161 I don't know, I'm coping that extensive modding will still be possible due to most of the gameplay/physics/etc still being done via Gamebryo while it's only the new graphics utilizing UE5. >>26162 Literally me

>>26162 Based beyond belief

>>26158 it seems it is a desperate situation throughout all of tamriel

I hate how that Justin copypasta supersedes any discussion of Oblivion's wonderful Flame Atronach On that note, Skyrim's Flame Atronach absolutely blows in comparison. Why does she have nostils and lips and a human face? Ugh, get that outta here.

>>26160 Skyblivion is going to be the defacto modding platform anyways since it's going to be compatible with most Skyrim mods.

bethesda is gonna be pushing paid mods 2.0 with this shit and plebs will eat it up

Considering this will likely end up being another TES thread, when the hell will OpenMW start supporting Oblivion? They're essentially finished with Morrowind, and have been for around three years now.

>>26173 They have in fact been working on it, Fallout 3/NV, and Skyrim since early 2023. It hasn't been getting much attention because it's uninteresting development footage. Highly amusing to see Skyrim with Morrowind shading.

Forgot to mention these are from cc9cii, one of the contributors to OpenMW.

>>26167 ??? Gamebryo is literally the renderer. It never did gameplay or physics or anything.

post your face when it's actually 21 April of 2026

>>26135 Well if the game looks really great overall and they fix the leveling system they would have done a good job

>>26176 I don't know about Skyrim, but I believe Oblivion utilized Havok for physics. That's one of the issues OpenMW has with it and other Bethesda games with physics, they have to create a reimplement for the physics engines. Most anons don't quite understand how game engines work or what middleware is. >>26177 Note a lot of the leaks said this week, not necessarily today.

>>26177 mane, i don't know if i'll live that long

>>26178 I'm talking about it not even stealth dropping today in the first place. The quality remains to be seen after than.

>>26176 Alright then, well whatever the fuck did that stuff in the original Oblivion will still be doing it in the remaster. UE5 is only handling the new graphics.

>>26137 How many times have people repurchased Skyrim?

>>1192829 me modding is painful as fuck to do though. I tried even with their automatic launcher and processes and still somehow was not able to get any of the mods to work

>>26133 Haven't seen any proof or announcement, complete nothingburger

https://x.com/bethesda/status/1914341006188712023 TOMMOROW

WHAT DO YOU MEAN TOMORROW

>>26187 FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK WHY NOT TODAY WHILE I HAVE A DAY OFF

>>26186 >>26187 So they will only announce it tomorrow? Like I said, complete nothingburger

Pack up boys There is basically no way this is a shadowdrop

See you tomorrow

>>26191 They will drop the game after the announcement tomorrow

>>26191 YAMEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>26191 if could still shadowdrop after the reveal trailer. not like xbox hasnt done this in this very year (ninja gaiden 2)

>>26188 why would a company ever shadowdrop a game on a Monday? It would be at least a tuesday.

>>26196 because it’s a shadow drop, it’s suppose to be a bit random tuesday is just extremely expected

>>26188 knew it wouldn’t be today kek. Dumb niggers, the lot of you.

>>26198 >heh it's not real lmao coping niggers lole >WELL IT'S TOMORROW THAT STILL COUNTS SOMEHOW

>>26199 tomorrow is only the announcement. Today was the announcement of the announcement.

>>26198 You lost kek.

So how long realistically until the game actually drops?

>>26190 Because it's easter monday?

>>26202 Until 31/12

>>26202 2 more announcements.

>>26202 probably this year. probably.

The hour is nigh.

So Bethesda is the developer? I thought it was made by another company, just how Bluepoint made Demon's Souls.

>>26207 It didn't drop. Back to sleep.

>>26208 >a bethesda game

HHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>>26208 Bethesda is the dev and they said they made some changes inspired by Starfield

>>26212 so ranjeet is the dev, got it

TOMORROW!!!

>>26207 >>26209 lmao

>>26212 Do we even know what changes we should expect?

>>26174 Oh, that looks foul. Imagine how the guns will work.

>>26213 yes, whole game takes place in the sewer now

>>26207 >>26209 Anon..

>>26216 Different weight in melee and bow combat, stamina system dumbed down by not ragdolling you for not having stamina and getting hit. Source: random article from a week ago

>>26221 Thank you random article from a week ago, very cool

I wanna see her

i swear, if the reason behind doing it tomorrow is that faggot pope dying i will break into his vatican tomb and shit on his grave

>>26217 According to what cc9cii has said, they're going to have to completely reimplement the gameplay. Right now the engine is hardcoded to play like Morrowind, a big step forward will be to make it gameplay agnostic so it can actually run other games. Their "roadmap" is to get systems working first, then engine tooling to get the games playing right. For example, I don't believe OpenMW has any form of stochastic texturing.

>>26223 new coomer waifu calling it now

I want to shit on and laugh at the doubters from 4chan /v/ so badly right now

>>26226 New? I've wanted her to murder me since I was 12

>vidya in the 90s >2-3 years between main line sequels >no game for 4+ years = series is dead and forgotten >duke nukem in dev hell for 4 years started the whole meme >today 10+ years between games >a late game is better than a bad game >still comes out broken and unfinished needs years of patches and updates >sorry we didn't have time please understand

>>26227 I didn't doubt it. But I genuinely hate remakes. They're endlessly releasing them to pander to nostalgia instead of making new shit.

>>26224 >Howard married Kimberly Yaissle on July 8, 1995, at St. Thomas More Catholic Church in Allentown, Pennsylvania Todd…

>>26230 This just further delays TES VI, its probably not being released before 2030

>>26232 Jesus fuck lol

>>26230 Well we know BGS is working on TES 6. This game is just meant to build up hype for Elder Scrolls and keep some fans satiated after a 14 year wait. In general I dislike the trend of remakes though

>>26232 Made by a different studio thoughbeit

>>26227 Pajeets and SEAmonkeys don't feel remorse, you seek a phyrric victory. They just move onto the next doomposting like nothing happebed, they're beasts.

Well? Was the 1200EST rumor correct?

the real question is Will they remove Soule music? No Soule no buy for me Hoping there's no denuvo

Imagine being hyped for a remake. What the actual fuck, guys?

>>26238 Yeah if they remove SOULe is quintessentially over for the Remaster. Newfags who never heard the OST won't tell though.

You're going to die in here, Anon.

>>26239 Its cuckchanners Im amazed they like oblivion at all, it was dogshit

>>26235 I still believe in a 2030 release date, they have basically shown nothing after the trailer dropped 6 years ago

>>26242 I'm a refugee myself, but I assumed the hyping up of Oblivion back there was an Indian shitposter or something samefagging, because Oblivion really was the worst of the series, worse than even Skyrim.

>>26239 I’m a massive fan of the series and have been waiting 14 years for a new game

>>26212 >inspired by Starfield As in avoiding being like Starfield, r-right?

>>26242 Oblivion was my first, I'll always have fond memories of it.

https://youtu.be/G1KAtuiKfL8?si=3OVkzQRLKQAanl1U KINO…..

>>26214 where was this posted? was there a trailer or just this image? I don't know how to get my vidya news anymore without the real /v/...

>>26229 Yeah these generations are zombified. All of this is because of the graphical fidelity arms race and choosing to hire fat tumblr whales like Hamburger Hepler instead of autistic white nerds. >>26246 Probably means the UI, which means they gutted it 100% and slapped some transparent and minimalistic Skyrim crap. I don't see anything else that could apply to Oblivion, SAARfield is a space game. RIP to the OG UI.

>>26249 Bethesda socials

>>26249 >I don't know how to get my vidya news anymore Twitter. Everything comes from Twitter.

>>26249 https://www.youtube.com/live/Ed_E2crglcw?si=zpD635ckmBek96g8

>>26174 >openmw with fo3 The important question is, will it make hardware accelerated audio work without crashing everything?

>>26140 Why did Vance do it?

Is it true that some people are getting the remake injected into their library?

What are they going to 'remaster' anyway? Will the Imperial City finally look like it should or stay a lickspittle little town? Will the level scaling finally be removed?

>>26257 I prefer the imperial city to Kuttenberg or Novigrad

>>26257 Its just going to be unreal graphics+piss ugly UI+no mod support

>>26250 Yeah, RIP in piss if that's it. Not that I expect whatever shit they come up with to be any better. beth has never made a UI that isn't complete ass.

>>26208 >I thought it was made by another company It is. Why would the leaked images be on Virtuous's website otherwise

>>26252 I've resisted having a twitter for like 15 years now. I'm not letting some sharty faggot change that

>>26262 There's gigatons of porn on twatter that only (You) can find and save to your memory device though, just letting you know.

>>26261 Third pic looks like Elder Scrolls Online

>>26247 Me too man, one of my last fond memories before high school. I know it wasn't a great game in a general sense. But it sticks in my head.

Postan in ebin bread!!1 b4 Oblivion remaster/remake/rerape comes out I'm extremely cynical, so this post will be first and last thing I'll enjoy about dis vidja gaem. Wooooooo

>>26242 valuable input from a (1) kill yourself

>>26257 All leaks said the world design is the same.

>>26268 But is there something shady going on at the Oak and Crosier?

>>26267 He's right Oblivion is Xbox 360 babies (most of cuckchan) first RPG It sucks fucking dick even if it's not as bad as Skyrim.

>>26259 >no mod support This hasn't been confirmed. It was originally assumed if the entire game was UE5, but that's not the case only graphics are UE5. We've zero idea if modding support will be a thing.

>>26270 >he's put your phone down guarantee you weren't even alive when oblivion released

What if they redid Shadow Over Hackdirt but had one of those Dunwich Art Deco heads from Fallout 4 buried in the caves?

>>26272 I was nearing 12 when it came out you cuckchan roach, this is the only Oblivion I'll ever need.

>>26244 >because Oblivion really was the worst of the series, worse than even Skyrim Nah, that's just morrowfag blind hate. Skyrim is literally NOT an RPG and it killed the series forever with it's casualization and dozens of remasters.

I won't be playing it, but I will watch for clips of the classic Objank in newly high fidelity and of Unreal shitting the bed on top of Gamebryo shitting the bed.

>Be Buhthesda >Starrim flops >One of the many issues was the game's engine >Too risk to change engines for a new game >Experiment with something safer first, remake a flawed but loved game >The power of nostalgia will soften the blow in case it goes wrong Nah, this is just Bethesda testing waters through another studio to see if Unreal Engine is worth the change.

>>26274 oh so you're a deluded ruski on a VPN lmao 2 more weeks

>>26275 >Visuals Who gives a fuck? If anything Skyrim looked pretty good and that's why they removed any kind of depth found in Oblivion, because the 360 couldn't handle it. >>26277 It's still Gamebryo anon, just with a UE5 layer on top of it. >>26278 Not a Russian, but I hope they nuke Ukraine and every redditor like yourself that supports it.

Is it releasing tomorrow or are they announcing a release date tomorrow?

You were still swimming in your absentee fathers nutsack while I was doing that.

>>26286 God willing Todd will be able to make the Khajiit women properly sexy under the auspices of Microsoft.

>>26288 Yeah.

>>26288 They're announcing an announcement where they'll announce an announcement of cheese for everyone.

>>26287 >TES Legends It was fun.

>>26179 Generally speaking, you can assume nearly every middleware they started using in Oblivion is one they've used since then, and are still using. Facefx, Speedtree, Havok, excepting only Creative EAX which they may have only used in FO3.

>>26287 >TES Online Doesn't count

>>26293 >eating shit is fun

>>26290 How sexy are we talking here?

>>26296 Well, it might be for MessyTails. Thankfully Legends wasn't bad for a card game (until they introduced the dragoshit.)

>>26297 >Microsoft >Sexy

>>26289 took you 10 minutes to ask AI about popular bands and phones from the mid 2000s? zoomers really are fucking pathetic for the third time, KILL YOURSELF YOU UNDERAGE NIGGER

>>26297 About this much I think would be nice.

>>26290 >>26297 It's either make or break for the nu-Blivion khajiit and argonian women, I really want to see them kemonofied, not gonna lie.

>>26301 mrreeow

>>26300 >-oomer

>>26133 anyone else excited to see kino skyboxes in cyrodiil?

>>26289 >looked pretty good except for the lighting, textures, modeling...

>>26304 n'woomer

>>26304 idk what you're even avatarfagging with so whatever insult you're trying to sling bounces right off, typical for an underage niggerfaggot

>>26302 Yeah hopefully they do something good with them.

>>26244 >because Oblivion really was the worst of the series Keep telling yourself that morrowindfag.

>>26309 It's the red anon, a version of the green anon but for the OG 8ch, now deceased thanks to glowniggers. I never liked it, felt petty and forced as fuck.

I just like TES and am glad we're getting something, even if it is a fucking UE5 remake/remaster.

Are there actually people like this?

>>26310 Dicking around with reshade doesn't help your case. Skyrim is when they dropped brightness controls and every dark area became what used to be the result of an engine having its lighting pass disabled entirely. You're forgetting that Oblivion already had to cut things like chains casting shadows because the console couldn't handle it, while Skyrim not only didn't restore it, it made the chains sprites.

>>26313 the original 8ch died long before ze floyd incident happened how fucking petty do you have be to make something like this

>>26314 I agree. But sometimes the monkey paw can be nasty, I don't like nu-devs raping old games with stupid shit.

these video essay watchers that throw a tantrum whenever they see someone enjoying an elder scrolls game that isn't morrowind are pathetic af

>>26309 >>26313 Newfag cuckchan nigger >>26315 Every single Bethesda redditor in this thread hyped for this shitty gook remake for starters. >>26316 That's vanilla retard Skyrim had good looking environments, that's all it had going for it

>>26319 >af

>>26305 I just hope they don't fuck these up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cG5JVP70i8Q

>>26310 Oblivion's biggest fault is it looks fucking atrocious on anything below max settings with draw distance mods. I think the vanilla texture work (mostly) looks pretty crisp once you turn everything up, which you should unless you are somehow trapped on a 2005 rig.

>>26314 im more excited for this than i am TES6 if they're really just throwing a new paintjob on it and making minor tweaks. one thing im kinda worried about that i dont see anybody else talking about is unreal 5 handling the NPC schedules and other sim elements. creation engine might be janky but supposedly it's absolutely necessary according to bethesda. if this game comes out and replicates it 1-for-1 with no hitches, it's going to make them look really bad (or worse than usual).

>>26238 could you imagine they replace the soule with some shitty inon zur trash i'd riot

>>26238 I don't think they will bother to do that honestly, that's gonna just open up a huge can of worms for them. Not even games that are still active like GW2 have removed Soule's old tracks from the original zones.

>>26285 Fixed

thank God for filter ID+

>>26299 Believe in Todd.

It was supposed to release today but Todd delayed it cause of the pope passing

God i love post ids on /v/. Its so easy to filter out retards and schizos now

>>26330 may they both burn

>>26320 I've been on 8ch since 2015, then migrated to the webring and back here, in the cakekike domain. Last (You) you get from me, you avatarfagging tryhard mongoloid. Nice pseudo-reddit spacing, by the way. Very cool. Keep doing that.

>>26324 The entire game isn't in UE5, UE5 only handles graphics.

>>26320 are you gonna keep spamming your soy pictures to prove your point or?

>>26315 I doubt the people they contracted this out to even know why oblivion's leveling system is shit. I don't have any hope in them fixing it.

>>26329 Todd give no fucks, he just wants to push ideas and hire his friends into the company, Microsoft will force his hand regardless. >>26333 >I've been on 8ch since 2015 Sure ya did! And your assholes not filled with aids ridden nigger cum either! >>26335 As long as it keeps bothering you!

>>26336 >I doubt the people they contracted this out to even know why oblivion's leveling system is shit You don't think Bethesda was communicating with them?

>>26338 They're Singaporean

>>26261 >third pic my modded 'rim looks better, it's over probably runs better than that ue5slop too

>>26336 nigger they had almost two decades worth of complaints to work with, all documented, every bug laid out in the unofficial patch(es)

>>26249 >I don't know how to get my vidya news anymore without the real /v/ Every thread on 4/v/ is just downstream from either twitter or the gamingleaksandrumors subreddit

I still can't really comprehend that they're remaking Oblivion of all things. It's been said before in the thread but this entire era of gaming feels so odd and broken, like everything is just the same but different, like a broken record spinning and skipping at the same spot again and again. Maybe it's because Oblivion is the first game getting remade that I had a place in my heart for, a memorable but imperfect comfort game that brings me back to being a kid in the summer of 2006. Or maybe it's the fact that Oblivion (like Morrowind) has had two decades of modding support, meaning there's functionally enough content for you to keep playing and seeing new things until the day you die. Anyway, based on what little we've seen so far it visually looks completely unlike Oblivion, missing a lot of the charm and soft lighting that made the original so comforting. Even if nothing is changed gameplay wise, it'll still be a disappointment because the jank of the original is part of what made it even more charming -- it's easier to forgive that for an older game, not so much a modern release. Re-releasing it with a new coat of paint would just feel cheap and lazy. And if the gameplay is revamped, that just makes me worry what else will have been changed for the worse.

>>26341 But they still have mountains of hybris to overcome. When Veilguard flopped and everybody and their moms shit on the game all EA took from the criticism was that they failed to market the game right because the "people who played it loved it." Todd himself said something similar about Starfield failing that they "innovated too much."

Will they keep the object physics? Thief gameplay won't be the same if they don't Being able to pick up alot of objects makes stealing fun

>>26343 Morrowind was so good for ambience and exploration rewards, everything after will always fail to compare properly. The leveling up of loot and enemies with the player automatically cuts off the risk incentive to go beyond the boundaries of safety and cash in the rewards for exploring and uncovering bigger and better and useful items. Oblivion was a quaint disappointment, Skyrim an insult. But the market says otherwise and therefore Oblivion is the closest thing Skyrim's lure could replicate. Financially I can comprehend it perfectly.

>>26133 If the khajiit are not hot, or at least really cute, I am going to fist fight Todd Howard

I'm going to play maybe 15-30 minutes to see the graphical improvements and then uninstall the pirated game

>>26273 I'll make a 10 hour youtube video talking about what it all means in the broader canon of the games (It means nothing a dev was just having a laugh)

>>26304 Very amusing to see you acting up again. >t. anon who you used to sperg at for saying "zoomer"

>>26174 This looks like some slavjank game from 2008

>>26347 Say hello to your new Khajiit bro.

As long as they keep acrobat in game and they don't fix the fall damage bug I'm happy.

>>26354 will they fix the fucking levelling system and endless scaling?

>>26353 A really pretty kitty.

>>26355 Very much doubt it, and if they do they'll scale it like Skyrim which is even worse in some ways.

Fuck it! I used some of my PTO to take the next two days off work. I'm testing my luck and going all in on the game dropping tomorrow.

>>26353 I will fuckin woop Todd, you better believe it

>>26357 how is Skyrim worse, you don't need a fucking pen and paper to keep track of your attribute gains at least

>>26345 >Will they keep the object physics? If they don't it's a deal breaker. Simple as that.

>>26358 TRUST. IN. TODD.

>>26355 I don't get why people hate the level scaling. I got thousands of hours playing the game and it's a cake walk. I even did a pacifist wandering merchant playthrough.

>>26360 >he needs pen and paper to count to 5

>>26358 What a retard

>>26229 >still comes out broken and unfinished needs years of patches and updates more like >comes out so broken that modders can't even be bothered to fix it

>>26345 It's only worth it if it keeps the mechanic where picking up something that's owned by an NPC and would be considered stealing to take incurs the same reaction and penalty. Theft is too trivial in all the games from FO3 through FO4 76 doesn't count because the shoehorned in npcs don't have anything resembling owned items to steal where you can just pick up a theft object, walk into a corner, and steal effortlessly.

>>26364 >shit I forgot, am I at 9 skill level ups or 8 if you actually want decent level ups you're going to need to write shit down to keep track of it

>>26358 If Todd doesn't deliver you've wasted your free time, clench your asscheeks and PRAY.

>>26366 if the rumours are true and they have shifted over to UE5 then the game will remain an utter shambles for all time. I swear that engine is like the kiss of death to any game that uses it

>>26369 What a shame, he'll just have to spend his time playing better games.

>>26365 I'm not retarded. I'm mentally unique, and my neurodivergence will be pay off big. I'll be enjoying the remaster tomorrow! I trust in Todd!

>>26371 Ok, this is epic.

>>26261 >third picture Shan't be playing this version.

>>26372 Pqtriot.

>>26347 You owe Todd 17 rounds in the ring for Morrowind, Oblivion, and all the Skyrim releases.

The Toddhead has never led me astray.

>>26279 Bro, you literally needed a mod to stop the characters' noses from looking pixelated.

>>26370 They're only using UE5 for the new graphics, everything else is running off the original engine. Moddability is still up in the air though, could go either way.

>>26379 Hopefully Bethesda clears the air on mods tomorrow with whatever they do, be it a teaser trailer, announcement or the game itself.

>>26380 I'm expecting an announcement and release within the same day, worst case scenario they announce it but don't release it until later in the week, like Friday.

>>26376 Yeah, I owe Todd quite the walloping if he fucks this one up, it is his last chance

>>26380 UE5 is easily moddable

>>26343 >It's been said before in the thread but this entire era of gaming feels so odd and broken, like everything is just the same but different, like a broken record spinning and skipping at the same spot again and again. Remakes/Remasters became the new sequels

>>26379 how is that a good idea ? the original game is in 32 bits, the script manager is slow as fuck, the game doesn't know multicore CPU's exist so it will try to cram everything on one core, etc... the original engine is plagued by problems. this remaster seems lazy as fuck, at least we'll have Skyblivion this year with a 64bits engine that fixed all issues.

>>26383 People say this but I never see any actual significant gameplay or content mods for UE5 games, it's always just basic tweaks.

>>26385 Re-releasing a game and having it still be unable to have official multicore support would be fucking comical honestly.

>>26174 >New Vegas with Morrowind lighting and UI

>>26379 I doubt it's the actual original Oblivion engine. If it is, this whole thing is a total waste of time because that engine is garbage especially for modding. If it's a port to a later verson of Gamebryo/Creation it might be viable, otherwise there's no point and everyone should just wait for Skyblivion.

I hope the gameplay is at least somewhat polished up. The leveling is terrible and doesn't work at all and the scaling only expands that issue further. Looking forward to seeing if it still has the same unbalanced gameplay as the original or if they actually adjusted the scaling so it doesn't feel like you have to play absurdly optimally just to have fun leveling up.

>>26379 >>26385 >>26387 You know the reason why they are using EU, right? Its because every rajeet and and rakesh only knows how to use that engine and its really easy/lazy to get "AAA" graphics. I bet they are deathly afraid of touching the original Oblivion code because not only is it shit but probably nobody that worked on that game is left.

>>26385 A dual engine approach is common with technically complex remakes, you just get the same game and feed data to the frontend engine and wala, you can sell the same game again.

Pretty cool, hope the soul is still maintained.

>>11955877 For the last time, lmfao, UE5 is only handling graphics, everything else is Oblivion's original engine

>>26385 >>26389 Just repeating what a dev who leaked the game 2 years ago said. >First, there is the "Altar" project, which is the remaster/remake of Oblivion (the discussion for it being a full remake are still ongoing). It is done currently using a pairing system, so it means that the remaster is running using both an Unreal Engine 5 project, and the old Oblivion one. For instance, new graphics are rendered in the UE5 project, but most of the gameplay/physics/etc is still done in Oblivion. It should be released end of next year/early 25 depending mostly on if it's a remake or remaster. It is mostly done in paris, but Blackshamrock also helps the studio for the art.

>>26392 it's still a terrible idea if you want to mod it, i mean Oblivion without mods WILL crash from time to time because the engine isn't stable enough for modern hardware.

>>26391 >Its because every rajeet and and rakesh only knows how to use that engine and its really easy/lazy to get "AAA" graphics. I bet they are deathly afraid of touching the original Oblivion code because not only is it shit but probably nobody that worked on that game is left. Correct. UE5 is astroturfed because jeets and SEAmonkeys can only use that, and they're much cheaper than white nerds. That's why in anti-UE5 videos you see the entirety of India raging in the comment section.

jarvis, drone strike these fucks

>>26396 It's a cheap rerelease done by Virtuos which specializes in janky remasters that lose the original soul like the Dark Souls and FFX ones, I feel people are banking way too much on this and expecting some kind of full first party reimagining when it's nothing like that.

>>26398 lel

>Unreal Engine Ah shit, here we go again. https://youtu.be/IMejfNp7z6M

>>26144 >ragdoll on a slope based Todd

>>26133 It's my least favorite TES and it's Bethesda so I'm not expecting much tbh

>>26385 >this remaster seems lazy as fuck b8

>>26405 Most of the people who played Oblivion when it released are like in their late 20s/early 30s by this point

>>26135 why can't games feel like this picture

>>26405 >2006 game >underages Anon, I...

lmao

I wonder how many more threads we're going to have before the game is out

>>26407 And considering that TES audience exploded with Skyrim that's millions and millions who never played Oblivion, because they were either too young or because they only discovered it in recent years, that's a gigantic untapped demographic for a remaster. Especially, if those screenshots aren't total bullshit, since it's more of a remake than just an upres remaster.

>>26405 How did Oblivion mindbreak morrowindfags so hard they're still seething about it decades later?

>>26411 2 more threads, trust the plan.

>>26413 >muh sales

>>26151 >canon breton >generic paladin >sword and board >looks vaguely like aragorn yea, it's gaming time

>>26407 I played it when it released and Im 37 Im not the oldest one here am I...?

>>26407 I played it when it released and Im 37 Im not the oldest one here am I...?

>>26134 Since the pope only plays undertale Todd got jealous....

>>26413 damn Arena had low sales

>>26417 42 here

>>26420 I don't believe it only sold 3k units, even for '94 that'd be abysmal.

>>1196323 Because they simply have shit taste. Morrowind is a Garbage game and the only reason why people like it is because and have their rose tinted glasses on. Skyrim is a more shallow gameplay experience but at the very least it's not a walking simulator with no quest markers while giving shitty or sometimes just plain wrong directions in the journal.

If they're not porting over the OG voices then I'm not buying it

The servers are shitting themselves again

>>26413 >DF and MW both do ~40x previous game >OB does ~2x >Skyrim does ~3x Oblivion confirmed worst TES

>>26214 >announcement for an announcement

>>26423 I too, like being a mindless retard and having a giant arrow pointing me where to go

>>26425 The AI slop threads are taking up too much upload bandwidth gdi Scream at acid and codex at >>>/site/

>>26413 >>26420 >>26422 >>26426 The image isn't correct at all. I know Daggerfall sold 700,000 copies, the first printing was 120,000. For Arena it was probably something similar, because 3,000 copies is what you'd see self-published games on 80s microcomputers in the UK sell. It's one of those disingenuous sales chart images, that intentionally fuck with what years they're pulling sales figures from.

If it doesn't have >the original voices >the soulful UI >the Soule OST I'm fucking rioting

>>26426 Wouldn't that be TESO?

>>26431 Leaks said they are changing the UI to make it more comprehensible to modern players

>>26431 >the original voices Why would you want that? It's fucking horrible

>>26347 :3

Reminder that ATLUS did something similar with P4G than what Bethesda is doing here with TES4R. We got leaks of a Persona 4 Golden PC release a few weeks before it was revealed in the PC Gaming Show AND released subsequently. This is literally the same ordeal; leaks, a trailer and we heard that the plan is to shadowdrop it. It's happening.

>>26433 oh boy

>>26434 Is it really Oblivion without RRRRRRRUN AWAY or Ralph Cosham going >This can not be. No one but the Em pe ror is per mit ted to han dle the Am u let. Let me see it. >>26435 >>26347 pic paste failed

>>26431 >>26433 ran it through the UI Soul Extractor, what do you guys think?

>>26430 Morrowind actually sold worse than Daggerfall initially, on PC. This has been almost completely memory holed but almost all of Morrowind's first few years of sales were on Xbox. The split was around 8:1 or something insane like that.

>>26436 Doubt it drops tomorrow they will announce it and then give a release date

Call me a faggot, but I hope they do make the game at least somewhat more gritty. I’d I want a silly whimsical adventure I still got the original. I want to see a lore-accurate oblivion crisis

>>26440 Yep Morrowind did fucking gangbusters on Xbox which is why they went all in on the console market for Oblivion, and it worked

>>26442 >Call me a faggot faggot.

>>26436 >we heard that the plan is to shadowdrop it Not happening. This is Oblivion, not Redguard or Fallout Tactics. This will be their "next big release" if not a straight up fall/winter game.

>>26310 dishonest comparison. do one with oblivion not at the minimum settings

>>26438 anon, that guy is dead

>>26441 >>26446 >They aren't trusting the plan It's dropping tomorrow (or later this week)

>>26434 I'm not going to defend the voices as impressive by any degree, but besides some of the more capable character lines like Martin's and Lucien Lechance's they absolutely contributed to the charm of the game. >>26440 >>26443 Ironically Morrowind saving the franchise through Xbox sales is likely the one thing that led Bethesda down the path of casualization, from Morrowind to Oblivion to Skyrim.

>>26439 Absolutely horrific, Tavistock Institute approved.

>>26347 >>26435 >>26438 (Checked) Play Daggerfall. You can dress up your Argonian or Khajiit in pretty clothes~ >>26443 For a long time, at least. In recent years the market has begun to demand complex RPGs again, I don't think Bethesda's 20-year strategy of "make it dumber" will work out for them in the current gen. Modern roleplaying gamers want Kingdom Come 2, not Starfield.

>>26428 Funny because I think whoever wrote some of those directions was one

>>26450 >>26452 It would be nice to get mechanical complexity back into the TES series again but sadly I don't think that's gonna happen.

I still haven't played Skyrim

>>26452 Yeah, but DF Khajiit are animu catgirls rather than anthros.

>>26448 If only we had his original voice clips from 2006 to reuse...

>>26450 Todd Howard said in an interview with Lex Friedman that without Xbox approaching them with Morrowind, the studio would have been done for because they were in deep shit after Redguard.

>>26458 That interview is what made me realize Todd is out of depth. Dude admitted he doesn't even play RPGs at all, he primarily plays fucking Madden lmfao

>>26456 In classic Elder Scrolls fashion, you can mod that. Daggerfall has a surprisingly large and active modding scene, I recommend you look into it.

>>26452 Before the refugee crisis, 8/v/ felt like one of the few communities where you'd meet people who actually played DF. It's disappointing to see 4/v/'s exodus has brought with it all the TES "fans" who've basically only played 5 and maybe a few minutes of 4. Also the Morrowhiners who hate the franchise and just like Morrowind. >>26458 I watched that and somebody I don't remember that part, though I've heard that story before. Redguard was a huge flop and didn't review well.

>>26461 *and somehow I don't remember that part

>>26405 I don't think it's really nostalgia so much as a kind of contrarianism or just a reaction to how Oblivion has always been shat on as the the worst of the Morrowind engine TES games, but is actually a pretty decent game in absolute terms.

>>26457 Wouldn't that be very few voice clips though? Pretty sure most if not al the voice lines were done at that point

>>26459 >he primarily plays fucking Madden lmfao Given that Starfield was his "lifetime dream project brain child" and is uninspiring and boring as shit, somehow I'm not surprised

>>26465 Starfield being the way it was is partially due to half of its ideas not being supported by the engine.

>>26433 >shitrim 2.0 >>26434 The voices are fine beyond the redguard female not knowing how to emote.

>>26466 Starfield being boring and uninspiring is due to the setting being nonexistent and what little lore and writing there is being an incoherent mess more than anything.

>>26133 pray to god my gtx 1070 and 7700k are enough to run it in a playable state

>>26459 he's not the only guy taking the decisions at Bethesda, when they want to make a game they usually decide about it (and pre-design it) during lunch time, he said so himself.

>>26466 Daggerfall was more inspiring on 8MB or RAM

>>26468 Giga truth nuke, Starfield had a lot of issues. But the biggest issue by far is the awful setting, boring lore, uninteresting characters, and lame quests.

>>26465 he's favorite game is one of the old Ultima games, where you can pick any items and use it for whatever, that's where the crafting part (any items can be recycled) comes from in Fallout 4)

>>26468 Starfield was so fucking soulless, idk how you can fuck up a sci-fi space setting that badly.

i hope it has ray tracing

>>26431 The original voices were dogshit

You think if the Oblivion remaster sells well it'll inspire them to remake Morrowind from the ground up? Funny how they're remaking Oblivion and F3 but Morrowind and New Vegas deserve it much more

>>26476 stop right there you criminal scum

>>26474 >idk how you can fuck up a sci-fi space setting that badly. by giving it thousands of planets or "infinity", i mean EVERY other space games except Starpoint Gemini 2 or Star Citizen are INCREDIBLY boring because of that. Elite Dangerous has good parts but god is it boring when you're past the grind and realize the entire game should have been one solar system with few planets for the PVP/PVE game meta.

>>26474 Seriously, on one hand I respect them for trying to do Human centric sci-fi and not taking the easy way out by having ayys in the setting, but holy fuck did they completely fail. Incredible Todd had 20 years and didn't come up with a single interesting or fun idea, I can only conclude that he did but took it out after other IPs beat him to the punch or Microsoft scrubbed out shit to give the IP "broader appeal to a general audience".

>>26467 Go listen to Martin's speech on Cloudruler and the awkward and robotic guards hurrah and tell me that's fine

>>26477 Morrowind is too problematic in the year of our lord 2000+25 and Todd has sentimental value towards it as it presently is. Todd hates NV. Neither will get updates.

>>26477 why would you want modern bethesda-zenimax to ever touch morrowind

>>26476 for the most part yeah, but it's part of the appeal of oblivion for me. there was some good performances too. sean bean was pretty good as martin and whoever did lucien lachance was really good too

>>26477 New Vegas is a bit complicated because it wasn't made by Bethesda (even though it's the one game that deserves a remaster the most) and Morrowind will never be good because it has been tried with Morroblivion, the problem of Morrowind is the outdated combat system, the lifeless NPC's (basically signposts) and the non-existent voice acting where every NPC is a wikipedia entry. Morrowind could be made playable but it would be a remake, not a remaster and i'm sure the original fans would whine anyway.

>>26482 Avellone himself says Bethesda has no issue with NV

>>26480 >Todd had 20 years and didn't come up with a single interesting or fun idea B-b-but everyone liked being dragonborn in Skyrim?? How come they didn't like the originality of being STARborn in STARfield??

>>26446 >Not happening It is and there's nothing you can do about it.

Never played Oblivion. Should I do it? The characters' faces really put me down tho

>its 120gb tragic

>>26485 >New Vegas is a bit complicated because it wasn't made by Bethesda It's all owned by Microsoft now, and this Oblivion remaster isn't being done by Bethesda either >Morrowind could be made playable but it would be a remake, not a remaster and i'm sure the original fans would whine anyway. Yeah I mentioned from the ground up, basically applying the characters/places/quests to the nuTES gameplay framework

>>26489 Just wait until tomorrow to play the remake where they fix the potato faces

>>26489 The remaster literally drops tomorrow, just wait a day

>>26484 the juxtaposition of beautiful graphics with awful dialogue and voice acting would turn a lot of people off

>>26494 >would turn a lot of people off Fuck em, they're sheep, Borderlands sold 30M copies why cater to people who buy shit like that

>>26492 >>26493 i bet it's not coming tomorrow, Bethesda has programmed a livestream on youtube called "All will be revealed", so it's just a reveal for sure.

>>26466 half of its ideas weren't supported by the engine and the other half were just shit at a base level. >scifi game with >no intelligent aliens >even the precursors are just human, and humans that you already know at that >no faction wars (that was uhh 20 years ago) >no robots (also 20 years ago, goes to a different school) >no AI (made illegal, relegated to a single side quest that resolves in 5 minutes and takes place in a single room with no plot implications) >no space age sports, card games, movies, (living) famous figures, or culture of any kind >all of mankind went to space and only one group decided to be something other than NASApunk americans after ~200 years the setting was just so flat and boring and gay and relied entirely on boomer nostalgia for the space race era which would be like 1% or less of the everyone that played it.

>>26498 >>no intelligent aliens >>no AI These aren't inherently bad ideas, but to successfully pull off not including them in a sci-fi setting while keeping things interesting takes a certain level of skill that Bethesda clearly does not posses.

Reminder >The remaster is using a pairing system, so meaning it is running using both an Unreal Engine 5 project, and the old Oblivion one. For instance, new graphics are rendered in the UE5 project, but most of the gameplay/physics/etc is still done in Oblivion >The HUD – Meant to be easier to understand for new players. >Stamina – Meant to be less frustrating and for players to be knocked down less when its depleted. >Hit Reactions – Meant to improve combat on both the player and enemy side. >Blocking – Meant to be “inspired by Souls-like games”. >Sneaking – Meant to have sneak icons more highlighted. >Archery – Meant to make it “modern” for third and first person play.

>>26500 I just want it to feel like oblivion is actually invading, and for the battle of Kvatch to feel like a battle

>>26500 Does this mean it's going to be easier to mod? I truly truly doubt it

>>26500 >>The HUD – Meant to be easier to understand for new players. Please don't be soulless and generic it probably will be

>>26496 >t.

>>26503 Enjoy you minimalistic slick smartphone UI

>>26499 it's requires being high concept gobbligook to pull off correctly and would only be slightly more interesting than the shit we got. with all of their success with TES, you'd think they'd know better than most that people want a bunch of different races running around and to play as. from mass effect to warhammer to star wars to star trek, the people want ayys, and i'm tired of artsy fartsy fags wanting everything subverted or deconstructed because they're bored of the classics. they're classics because they work.

>>26502 Let's run with the scenario that it does mean that, would the Oblivion remaster replace Skyrim as the Bethesda title to mod?

>>26505 I wanna believe it'll look good and resonate with the rest of the game while still being intuitive.

will they fix level scaling?

>>26503 I already told you it's gonna be some shit like this >>26439

>>26509 No.

>>26507 >Gamebryo 32bits hell no

>>26509 considering they could have done it with a 5MB patch back in the day by just capping enemy levels or health but just didn't feel like it... i'm thinking "maybe".

>>26510 I won't blackpill until I see it with my own two eyes hypothetically how hard would it be for someone to create a mod that makes it not shit?

>>26514 we don't even know how moddable it's going to be yet. optimistically, bethesda knows that modding is half the reason their games stay alive so long after release so one WOULD THINK they'd make that a high priority and requirement even for the studio they outsourced it to. realistically, we're in the middle of category 3 enshittification of everything, so i could easily believe them just not having the same mod support as always.

>>26514 I just want you to be spiritually ready for some transparent UI bullshit like Skyrim. Possibly with neon colors. >spoiler pretty easy actually

>>26513 this isn't the problem, the problem is you can train alchemy/illusion and support skills without fighting once and gearing up and then when you go out in the wild the enemies are incredibly strong while you have shit gear and shit combat levels.

Let’s post predictions >Body type A or B >runs like shit >all new voice acting, some old voice actors returning >new ost >Boethia and Peryite’s realms look different (same gameplay) >minor new quests to unlock player homes >soulless modern UI

>>26516 i think they did learn from the shitty Skyrim UI, Fallout 4 has a good "classic" UI and Starfield also has the classic UI, everyone including Bethesda and Todd Howard knows the Skyrim UI was shit.

They're gonna remove the deer penis joke and the overt racism between Argonians and Khajiits in that one town.

>>26502 Generally it means it'll be harder to mod and require a basic understanding of modern 3D development principles and Unreal's workflow to make it look good. So expect a ton of low effort mod slop. However learning that stuff is easy and you would have to be retarded to not figure it out. Native unreal engine games can be a pain in the ass to mod in general, so don't expect it to be as simple as normal gamebryo stuff. I'm entirely unsure how their dual system of using UE5 as a front end will work regarding things like art assets, level editors, legacy tools etc... As I've never encountered that workflow yet. But if they're smart they would've included the modding question in the early days of development/pre-prod. It would be retarded of them not to have something in place considering TES games are synonymous with modding.

>>26517 Your fault for doing it. That kind of thinking is why they gutted and removed the system entirely with Skyrim. >>26519 Everyone but the modders that desecrate Oblivion by backporting a Skyrim UI to it.

None of that considering it isn't a remake. It's literally just UE5 graphics over the old game with minor tweaks. And yes, the Battle for Bruma will still be ridiculously hilariously underwhelming.

>>26514 Who is this handsome man?

>>26518 >>runs like shit >>unreal engine 5 yup

>>26522 >Your fault for doing it. That kind of thinking is why they gutted and removed the system entirely with Skyrim. kinda true it's the player's fault sure but if you spend some time in the imperial city, you just do some lockpicking because you want gold or are curious, you sneak around, you jump and you run then you'll still end up higher level than you should, it's a game design flow. i've always played Oblivion knowing that and sometimes i still overlevel my skills intentionally but for a new player it's pretty hard if he doesn't know the system.

>>26522 also pic related is Skyblivion UI one month ago, they made it pretty similar to Oblivion.

>>26518 The only prediction I now 99% believe <leveling system and major/minor skills interaction stays the same

>>26523 Leakers said combat is being changed. This looks more akin to a remake than a remaster

>>26527 Crazy what a little filigree and some texturing on the menu will do for UI design.

>>26340 Why is she so bent over the table? Is she enjoying too much wine?

I wonder if clear weather will be possible in Dementia

>last thread got 42 posts in the last ~20 hours >this thread got 400 posts in the last 10 hours Bump limit autosage goes crazy here

>>26517 Also bandits in glass armor etc is just immersion shattering

>>26518 I predict it's going to be the same game with different graphics.

Radiant quests Y/N?

>>26536 They are fine so long as they only exist as quests unlocked AFTER the guild quest-line is over. Having radiant quests for during the main guild questline is just pure laziness

>>26535 This is literally what we know, the poster you replied to must be baiting or retarded

>>26534 i mean it depends, some bandits lurk near the Ayleid ruins, so they could have looted good stuffs down there. i liked the glass armor look in Oblivion, it's easier to spot than in Skyrim and somehow it's cooler,, less bland.

>>26538 My nigga leakers are saying combat, stealth, and archery are being changed. It’s not out of the question that there will be other changes. I also doubt they will spam you with home notifications right after you leave the sewers like in the base game

>>26399 > specializes in janky remasters Well, you see you brainlet, BGS specialised in janky masters. Therefore company doing janky remasters is the perfect soul encapsulation vessel. A kind of gem of a game. One might even call it a soul gem by any other name.

>>26542 Post pics of host kajeets >>26543 And stop samefagging, jeet

>>26134 Bloody Todd Bloody Todd Bloody Todd

fucking reddit coming here with their pope shit fuck off

>>26518 >new ost there's no way. nostalgia is selling this product and half of that is soule's OSTs. they still have his music in their most recent re-re-re-releases of skyrim. i can't stomach playing ESO but i'd bet they play his music in the vvanderfel/cyrodiil sections there too. the big question is how shit TES6's ost will be without soule. if they use whoever scored starfield again, it's DOA.

>>26508 N'wah!

>>26521 Someone explain to me why is modding UE games nearly impossible if the entire third world has UE certificates? I'm from Eastern Europe and we have a trade school njst for Unity/Unreal Engine develoent. Why are the Unity and UE modding scenes shitshows? I mean, modding is now dead compared to 15 years ago. Did all the modders go insane or something?

>>26548 I've always wondered if the voice actors were saying it wrong. It doesn't look like it's supposed to be "nwaw"

>>26544 I am not samefagging, there are IDs here nig.

what if they added multiplayer

>>26547 Soule has been fired with Metoo, how will they use the music now ? or maybe Todd won't care about the fabricated backlash of the media and will hire him for this ?

>>26547 It wouldn't make sense for Soule to score Starfield in the first place, getting their Fallout guy is the more obvious choice for a realistic space opera so I wouldn't take Soule's absence there as a negative sign, I hope they're rational and kept him on for TES

Is it a full remake, or just updated graphics?

>>26549 the engine isnt inherently unmoddable, it just depends on how lazy the devs are with providing an actual good devkit to mod the games. You can see games that devs provide good tools have decent modding communites like Conan Exiles which is on UE4

>>26549 >Someone explain to me why is modding UE games nearly impossible as far as i know, it isn't uniquely difficult to mod UE5, as it's always just a matter of how neatly the files are named/organized and how modular the code is. it's also exponentially easier with a devkit. >modding is now dead compared to 15 years ago it's partially the natural side effect of chasing autismos out of their natural environment by flooding it with normalfags, on both the development and modding side of things. nudevs cant code and numodders grew up on ipads instead of MSDOS PCs. it's hit the piracy scene the same way. it's harder than ever to start and there's not a lot for spergs to get passionate enough to work hundreds of hours for free over.

>>26518 >Body type A or B Probably not. >runs like shit Absolutely. >all new voice acting, some old voice actors returning Probably not, but I'm ready to be disappointed. >new ost Likely, for the most part. At least with the controversy around the original composer I could see most of the work being changed or just redone. >Boethia and Peryite’s realms look different (same gameplay) No. That's way too much effort. >minor new quests to unlock player homes Likely not, again that's too much effort. >soulless modern UI If the change it, oh absolutely. And it's unlikely they'll just leave it as is from '06. >>26552 Then they would still be behind modders by about a decade.

>>26555 not 100% clear at this time, but it appears to fall somewhere in the middle. they're doing more than just graphics (leaks say UI, stealth, combat hit reactions, etc) but nobody is sure exactly how much more.

>>26559 surely with the game being 120 gbs compared to the original 5gb its more then just visuals >inb4 SEA monkies dont know how to compress textures

>>26555 At the very least, the leaks suggest the world hasn't been changed outside of graphics.

>>26553 So did he really do any rapping or was it just woke bullying?

>>26552 Then you would get to desync in your erp sessions with /tesg/gers.

>>26560 i mean most of Fallout 4 size were the textures and the voice files, i remember early FO4 modders complaining that some dev at Bethesda put the OG ground textures at 150% resolution for no gain in visual quality and it caused FPS gains to scale it down to a more reasonable level.

Soule was mischaracterized, I didn't do those things

Are the DLCs going to just spam messages as soon as (You) leave the sewers, or will they implement it in a more elegant way?

>>26562 didn't actually do it it seems, but he was hard to work with (apparently ?) same for the Dying light 2 writer, he didn't do it and i think she had to pay him money lol (still ruined the game, DL1 being very good).

Either it has Soule's music or I no longer buy ANY game published by Microsoft.
