Well I guess that's that. I wonder if it'll be a remake or a remaster.

[I collect VHS tapes]

very excited for this one

 

[adamsapple]

110GB cleared on my SSD.

 

[KyoZz]

 

[Blank Space Invader]

Well, then... There is only one thing left to say.

 

[Dusktildawn48]

I'm so fucking in.

 

[Draugoth]

Old news

/S

 

[Unknown Soldier]

It's just a remaster, not a remake

This means all the classic Oblivion-ness will be preserved for all time!

Remake, they redid the voice lines

 

[EDMIX]

Well I guess that's that. I wonder if it'll be a remake or a remaster.

from what I've read, that shit is 100% a remake


They can word it how ever they like, but what they are talking about is what we know of as a remake

 

[I collect VHS tapes]

I wonder if they will tweak the leveling system. Currently you have to do some pretty counter intuitive, confusing stuff to min/max.

I'll definitely need to rewatch a video explaining that shit if they don't adjust it

They removed some of the skills like acrobatics

 

[DownLikeBCPowder]

Ready to roll! Will be tuned in at exactly 11!

Nooo.. based on what information?

M1PSt,

Athletics, Acrobatics, Blunt and Block were removed

 

[ZehDon]

Looking at the calendar, I'm not sure there's anything that's going to land at this level. Potential Game of the Year incoming.

 

[L11ghtman]

Hashem has allowed me to outlive yet another pope.

 

[Sinozen]

I am gonna be so disappointed if it doesn't drop by this weekend. I desperately want to play this. I've wanted to go back to Elder Scrolls IV already but heard about this remake.

 

[niilokin]

Please, be a great game, greatest in a long time

I'd have guessed "reveal now, but June release" except that every big leaker has said they've all heard it's releasing April. If it's releasing April, and we're like a week and a half from May, it pretty much has to be a shadow drop (or, whatever it's called when you tease something 24 hours in advance). I mean, "releasing next Tuesday" doesn't have quite the same sound to it as "now available".

 

[Magic Carpet]

I'll have to read the Neogaf notes, I have to work Tuesday.

But... but...

[Comandr]

Can't wait. Oblivion was such a beautifully janky mess, and aged appreciably like RE1 and SoTN's voice acting. I'm both stoked and a little sad knowing full well that they are going to "fix" a lot of what was "broken" in the original. Also super curious how radiant AI, being able to drop items all over the world, magic crafting, etc, are all going to work. These are major parts of what makes Oblivion, Oblivion.

my money says they release it tomorrow

 

[FoxMcChief]

Oh shit.

Blunt confuses me, I guess they'll probably group it with another attack type. The rest make sense if they've actually updated the physics and interactions to remove some of the RNG and to make it so that you don't have a baby's calf muscles when the game starts. I guess I'm alright with that.

M1PSt,

But I won't be able to jump everywhere

 

[Celcius]

SO CLOSE

 

[UltimaKilo]

Well, guess I'm picking up an Xbox Series X. There goes my Switch 2 pre-order.

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

Hype intensifies, one of my favourite games from the PS3 era

 

[Little Chicken]

...Ellie?

 

[ajanke]

Work is gonna suck these next few days lol

 

[Laptop1991]

Looking forward to seeing it, i played Oblivion for so many hours back in 2006, i lost track of time.

 

[Barakov]

This not being a shadow drop would be a huge disappointment.

This, so much this

If they try fix all the jank and redo the legendary voice work then I'm out. Oblivion is what it is because of the jank, if you remove the jank you remove it's soul

M1PSt,

I just read all their posts about this an I don't see anything talking about specific skill changes like that?

 

[adamsapple]

This not being a shadow drop would be a huge disappointment.

The data files are all loaded onto Steam per the DB type guys, just needs to be made public.

So far all signs point to it being announced and released tomorrow.

Anything else would be a surprise to me.

 

[Revolutionary]

I'm very curious how it'll turn out but I'm keeping my expectations in check.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Xbox pumping out content these last 6 months.

 

[Rocky_Balboa]

I don't even like Oblivion, but I am still excited to try this. Caught in the hype I guess. If they fixed the level scaling, then it might be good. Although that is a big IF.

Xbox is the best platform to play games in 2025.

Me too, was home "sick" from school for 2 weeks upon release. My teachers didn't buy it though and called it the "Oblivion plague".

 

[Seomel]

Mp1st also said shadowdrop today, god i cant wait

 

[Seomel]

Go with ps5 dude. More games overall

 

[Eastwood_333]

Maybe he wants gamepass? Maybe he prefers Xbox ecosystem and controller. If rumors are true, the next Xbox will have Steam, giving you Xbox, PS, and Steam games.

 

[pasterpl]

I am assuming it will be gamepass day 1 + play anywhere so you can play on Xbox/pc with cloud saves.

 

[Icymanipulator]

Seriously?! LAME
