Hopefully people can stop with the "I bet Bethesda will take down skyblivion!1!!" comments now. It's very clear there's good will between modders and the devs.

I don't get why some people think Skyblivion is some threat to Bethesda Elder Scrolls games at all. Mods are always going to be more niche than fully marketed and funded maintained commercial storefront releases.

Skyblivion is going to be limited to what the latest Skyrim release engine supports while this remaster has Unreal Engine 5 stapled on top as the graphics renderer. They added new voice acting. People are developing mod toolchains for the remaster. It's more substantial than the vast majority of remasters we've seen

I'm not paying 55€ for a remaster of Oblivion. I'd rather wait for Skyblivion. Or Bethesda needs to push the remaster in my hands free of cost.

I am looking forward to playing the Remaster. It sounds like they've fixed pretty much everything I didn't like about the original Oblivion - like the awful level up system. Hopefully they rebalanced the "difficulty" in a good way too. Last time I played Oblivion I remember higher difficulties being boring because it mostly meant even the weakest enemies would take a billion hits to kill.

Skyblivion will be fun to play too.

God so many people on here act like Todd Howard personally killed their child. It's fucking insufferable. You guys don't crucify other companies like this when it comes to mods. This only happens with Bethesda who is realistically one of the only companies that has supported mods in the mainstream. Games can also be good without mods. Get over yourselves and just enjoy a fucking game.

What are people complaining about? It can be modded.

Shut up I'm entertained seeing all these ignorant people who don't know what they're talking about crying.

People are complaining because Bethesda didn't launch the game with official mod support. Meaning it doesn't have a "mods" option on the main menu. Bethesda hasn't said they have a problem with mods or will go after anyone that uses them. But everyone is acting like this means Bethesda suddenly hates mods. Skyrim launched without official mod support too, but somehow it managed to be a successful game on top of having a massive modding community. People just want to complain for the sake of complaining.

The vast majority of games don't have official mod support. Fuck them for sometimes officially supporting it, I guess.

The remaster is good. I hope Skyblivion is good. More games for consumers, the better. People here are commenting as if Bethesda has a responsibility to handhold the entire modding community. They are just doing their thing to make some money with employees that want to get paid and also make good games. Bethesda has had some downs but also some ups. This remaster is an up so I enjoy more Elder Scrolls.

I have been waiting so many years now for Skyblivion that I am not going to bother with the Remaster. And to be honest, something with the Remaster and UE5 feels off visually.

The Skyblivion Teams attention to detail and love for the project makes me believe that it will also be the superior version of Oblivion.
