If true, I hope that they leave some of the goofy bugs and ai in the game. I think the weirdness of the interactions between NPCs is part of what made me love the game so much before.
O: “Heard any news from the other provinces?”
M: “Nothing I’d like to speak about.”
O: “Good day.”
M: “Go.”
O: " heLLO! "
M: “Hi.”
I also loved how the guards would try to attack through through space and time, with a lively “Beuaregeh!” as they hit absolutely nothing.
Other times, you’d see a guard kill someone, only for that same guard to go up to the body, gasp and shout “there’s been a murder!”.
I loved some of the messed up object physics too.
Ok, why tf are we still waiting for the next Elder Scrolls?
Maybe Oblivion will be the new Skyrim and re-release for the next five or six years until Elder Scrolls 6. I’ve seen a worrying amount of revisionism on Lemmy about how Oblivion is actually the best of the games, which is wrong. Morrowind is by far the best and deserves, but also does not require, a remake.
I think a really cool and not going to happen thing would be for a new DLC for these older games, alongside official patches to make them work on modern rigs for new players.
Nah, the best Elder Scroll is Daggerfall… Unity.
The second best is OpenMW.
So what does that mean for Skyblivion and Skywind?
Bad news. This is usually when companies move in to stop projects like that
Disappointment from the devs, presumably.
I’m still mad about how much I disliked Oblivion. It had the worst level scaling and psychic guards, and none of the cool weirdness of Morrowind. I also kind of didn’t like Skyrim though, so maybe I’m just not the target audience.
Ugh and the shit persuasion system had me turning into a vampire every playthru so i could just charm everyone.
Magic system and Patrick Stewart is all i want carried over to the remake.
I would love/hate if they got the guy who did the orcvoice to repurpose his role. I can hear his voice clearly even now more than a decade since the last time i played
This was my all time favorite game growing up as a kid, I would love to see it happen!
