Agreed. I'd definitely be happy if we ever got a remake of the older games, but I can always just play the fucking originals. Sometimes it seems the folk who cry the loudest for remakes/remasters never played the OG in the first place. Or worse yet, they did play them and think they're dogshit or "dated".
Which is the player base I think Skyblivion is actually appealing to. People who got in with skyrim and found oblivion to be too goofy anesthetically/mechanically. Same for the Skywind crowd.
Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, if it leads to more people playing the older games. But we all know that's a very small minority of people who would play these mods.
