Is he going to do it?

Joke's on you it's going to be a Skyrim demake in the Oblivion engine.

... Honestly, I'll take it. I preferred Oblivion's skill system anyway.
- You know that good video games exist right? You can just play those instead of playing Bethesda slop
that's the only thing they could do that would be better than the skyblivion fan project

Nintendo Switch 2 announcement for Skyrim.

After Fallout 4 and Starfield, I am not looking forward to any of this shit

After all, now you can run Oblivion on any potato computer and install some mods to make it less bad

The remake exists solely to try and steal steam (and money) away from Skyblivion

I think Skyblivion is free and it will be better than this because it's fanmade.
- Passion project > cash grab every day of the week
- Yeah, but Bethesda is doing this because they know some people probably don't know about Skyblivion and will just buy the remake
- but is it released? first i've heard of it and i don't see a way to get it from their site.. just an update last year about them working to release it?
Fallout 4 was a pretty good game. The shooting was a big step up from previous games, even though it lacked a lot of heart by being fully voiced.
I refused to to touch 76 or Starfield. They look horrible and boring.
- Fallout 4 was a pretty good game.
  wut
- i really strongly disagree that fallout 4 is a good game

Oblivion "Remastered" is just going to be Oblivion with AI-upscaled textures. Maybe new voice work since the original game's is so bad. They will fix half of the bugs that are fixed in the most recent version of the community patch, and introduce a dozen more.

TES 6 will never release. It isn't even in development. That JPEG everyone knows about wasn't actually revealed by Bethesda, it's a deepfake that we have all developed a collective hallucination around.

Maybe new voice work since the original game's is so bad.
That's half of what makes oblivion fun though. https://youtube.com/shorts/eoztSnj_CcU

I'm more excited about the release of a game that has a large and established modding community and what they'll do with that new platform than the game itself.
I genuinely did not enjoy Skyrim at release- modded Skyrim is one of my favorite games ever.
The talent in the broader Bethesda modding community is beyond impressive and they've had years to refine tooling/interop that I think will result in another modded game that will, hopefully, reach the same heights to me as previous works.
- I was really hoping that would happen with Cyberpunk 2077 and Starfield, but I think Skyrim was more an exception than a rule. I genuinely don't think we're likely to see that level of involvement from a modding community again.
I would really love a version of TES 6 that isn't what TES 6 will be.
- Sign me the fuck up for TES 6: DAGGERFALL TWO
I think theres some truth to the idea that, even if Elder Scrolls VI were a really good game, a larger than youd think portion of the fanbase still wouldnt be happy with it.
You might be underestimating the number of people who unironically enjoy modern Bethesda games, unfortunately.

Fraud Coward

Considering Starfield took like 8 years to come out as a completely half-assed shallow barely-even-there game and TES VI only starting full production after that launched in 2023, I'd be surprised to see anything regarding that game before like 2027. I'm gonna be there for it though, somehow these games just keep getting worse and worse. Like Starfield is such a giant step down from even like Fallout 4 I still kinda can't believe it. It can't get even worse, can it? At some point people are going to have to notice, and they'll definitely notice the more they have to compare these games to.

It can't get even worse, can it?
There's always more room at the bottom
- there's still some vestigial rpg elements they can cut.
and Fallout 4 was a drop off a cliff from Fallout New Vegas
- but they didn't make New Vegas. Gotta compare it to fallout 3.
didn't starfield have massive structural problems? another TES game is something they should have a better handle on managing and it ought to go more smoothly than the "oh shit we don't know how to make a space game"

Don't believe his lies

real eyes realize real lies

They really should drop another one, considering the last one was almost 7 years ago. Treatlerites are starving out there.

yeah but release price will be $150

Release the remake and 6 with full mod support and it's already pre-installed with hentai mods you COWARD

The whole situation with Oblivion Remastered feels so strange to me. If I had to guess, Bethsoft has very little marketing budget for this game, being a remaster, so they're doing a marketing by leaks strategy. But even then the leaks are like "It could launch any day now!" And that seems like such a quick turnaround for an unannounced game, though it may have to go through platform related stuff before actually selling. Fire Emblem Engage had something similar happen, but it didn't really sell well at all.

Not really relevant to your post, but the Remaster has been on my mind.

People are so thirsty for a TES game that this probably works

Todd Howard's going to announce he's in the running to become the new pope.

It’s going to be the Oblivion remaster release date followed by a Skyrim remaster announcement then they will tease us by mentioning VI but provide no real info.

After Starfield I look forward to not looking forward to anything by Bethesda ever

0 that games not started yet

it's gonna be the same dog shit as starfield with the same bugs and the same mechanics as the games bethesda has done for the last decade or so. i mean i get the hype bigger number is better but like aside from that what's there to wait for? everyone can basically play TES VI by getting Skyrim or fallout or starfield and mod them so the title changes to elder scrolls 6 or whatever. i don't get it.

I'm predicting at least 1 JPEG

Maybe. I dunno. It's gonna be crap anyway

how about instead we follow the trajectory of the American Empire?

The magic wore off for me back with Skyrim, I was obscenely hyped for it, literally failed several assignment in the pursuit of playing skyrim nonstop and then after like 120 hours, I was done and for years I felt like I just didn't "get" Skyrim and that it was me, but it was already happening. I grew up with Morrowind, I was too young to actually play it and understand what was happening, the combat system was too abstract for someone that had very little RPG experience, and then Oblivion hit and it fixed all those issues dumbass kid me had with Morrowind. I swung a sword and I hit things and it had the compass that helped me not get lost. And then lost interest in the "genre defining" Skyrim. I look back at all of it now, I'm rather fond of Oblivion to this day, but I'd probably have a pretty negative reaction to Oblivion if it was a new game, but as a game with infinite meme potential and infinite jank along with some rose tint, it's great. I love watching people do silly things in it, the NPCs doing uniquely Oblivion things. It's an encapsulation of gaming and bethesda at that point in time and once you rip it out and remake it in a new engine with none of the original jank, meme potential, or rose tint, it's just a crappy game. The studio making it is a Singapore based art asset outsourcing place so my expectations are in the dirt. It's a game I don't think should be brought to the modern era, kinda like how Todd says they'll leave Morrowind alone since it was its own thing, they should've just left oblivion there too.

He's gonna post dong on main
