I found Morrroblivion very strange, empty. The content was the wrong scale for the engine or something. I don't have high hopes for a remaster of Oblivion along similar lines. Out of phase.

To be honest just thinking about it, trying to bring the aesthetic of Morrowind into Oblivion seems like a challenge. The latter is generally very bright and colorful especially in outdoor areas while the former tends to be more dim and drab.

Honestly I rather just play Oblivion with a lot of mods if that's the case, I'm sure it'll be "fine" (though I have my doubts with big modding projects) but it won't be the same.

From what I can tell it does have a distinctly "mod" feel to it that just can't be shaken, but as I am the unique flavor of autism that prefers Skyrim I at least intend to try it.

Oblivion's art style isn't really conducive to dark or drab anything, which is pretty ironic for a game where you spend a not-insignificant amount of time in Hell.

And to think, Bethesda said that the reason they toned down Radiant AI was because it caused too much chaos and entire towns to kill each other off.

I really wish they'd had a radiant AI mode option in the settings, like a sandbox mode just so you could enjoy that chaos. Dunno if you can re-enable it through the developer console or mods.

True, Oblivion with mods looks fine as is. What they really should have done is gone back and given us a update that fixed the game's limitations being a x32 application running on directX 9

I don't know. I'm playing Oblivion right now just with bug patches, the horse saddle bags and the character overhaul.

The character overhaul fucks so many things up I've basically had to download like 5 or 6 compatibility patches for it.

I feel like Skyrim modding, even as janky as it still gets, has spoiled me.

I tend not to touch character overhauls for anything before Skyrim, looks jarring the more you go back in the series and try to make it "prettier."

...yeah, same here. It's easier to do anything, for better or worse. Does mean the older game's experience is more preserved rather than trying to bury as much as possible.

It’d be a crime for me to remove Oblivion’s ridiculous potato faces, regardless of how bad they look. That’d be like removing the Eiffel Tower from Paris.

I want this to happen simply so that more people are made aware of the horrors that troons bring forth, there is never enough money lost for companies. But I doubt even big companies that take fat checks from "Blackguard" (fused the two notorious names for convenience) will form a purely troon team.

Why do so many Skyrim players hate Heimskir, that guy who preaches about Talos in Whiterun? I like him.

Most skyrim players are thalmor ballwasher imperial niggercattle who hate Talos because the Stormcloaks like him and the Stormcloaks are big evil meanie raycists and ULFRIC IS AN ASSET.

Skyrim is for the Nords. All other milk drinkers will be REMOVED.
