Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
OK. this thread asks for GENUINE oblivion screenshots.
So happens I was always taking screenshots.
It is time to share my oblivion screenshots from ...10-15 years ago?! 20?!
Yes. Some of the screenshots are so old, they are 1024x768
I was obsessed with this game.
pc shots. maxed out. Always.
edit: It's impossible to explain how good this game fucking looked and felt. It was incredible. and it had physics on top of all!

I'll add some screens from the X360 version running in BC mode on Series X
Such a magical game.

Oh nah, I never touched Avowed, haha. I'm just saying in general because it's almost always on just that screen in most cases. I did think it was neat of their devs to add the toggle to turn it off. I mean, more options don't hurt anybody, haha.
Yeah, UE5 being present can certainly be nerving. I haven't played it in SO long, and I was waiting for Skyblivion to be done to jump back in. I loved it a GREAT deal, so knowing this is definitely coming is super exciting, albeit a bit nerving lol. I just don't want it being mishandled, at least I know I'm not alone, haha.

Seriously doubt it. For all the endless shit people talk on Creation Engine, that is its main strength. Unreal 5 is not going to be the same.

Really hope so and not just basic reshape or skin mods that basically any game could do but actual advance no limit mods with a creation kit.
It's still a win win for us either way cause we still got Skyobivion with the mods and this Oblivion remake should still be very fun to try out.

Assuming it's real, and I refuse to say it is until we can literally get it, it will be on everything but switch it seems.

Avowed uses all the features of Unreal 5 and looks damn good especially with the draw distances. Looking forward to this.

Great shots, I love this game so much. It was so cozy. The same cozy feeling as running around Elwynn forest in WOW back in the day.OK. this thread asks for GENUINE oblivion screenshots.

I don't think this is gonna look as good as Avowed, feels like this is gonna be a Halo: Anniversary thing. The old game's bones under the UE5 sheen will still keep it from being like a brand new developed TES game.

WOW is the Best fantasy mmorpg and Elder Scrolls is the best single player fantasy rpg.
imagine a WoW 2 MMORPG someday.

Oblivion was my first WRPG. Came from nothing but JRPGs, so it was a culture shock. I hated it at first, but kept at it, and eventually put 500 hours into the PS3 version.
I'm interested in the remake since I have a soft spot for the game. It's aged poorly and I've tried replaying it multiple times, but I just can't lol.

I remember first playing this on my shitty Compaq laptop. I had to play it windowed and lower resolution but boy was I happy to just getting it running at all.
I'm excited for this! Screenshots look great

The game running in BC on xbox still has the constant load hiccups and the awful LOD draw distance.

I remember watching gameplay videos on YouTube that same night and practically dying of anticipation waiting to get it the next day. They were popping up everywhere. It was the first new release to be heavily covered on YouTube IIRC.

So like Demon's Souls being developed by Japan Studio and Bluepoint. Not the best thread to discuss this, I think.

Its more like an extensive remaster using a new engine. Not likely a full remake based on the screenshots.

I have to say when Oblivion initially released on Xbox 360 it was the first game that truly looked next gen and not possible on previous consoles.

The full video sadly is not available anymore, but here are some highlights from that stream
I did not watch this back in the day, but I did watch some of his Skyrim stream!!
Amazing stuff really

It was a very similar situation for me, came from jrpgs until I discovered Morrowind.
Played jrpgs like FFIV, FFVI, FFVIII, FFIX, FFX, Xenosaga 1/2, Star Ocean 3, Shining Tears from my junior high to early high school years then randomly bought Morrowind in the store for the Xbox cause I like the case and back cover and the amount of content it promised from reading the back cover.
First WRPG I've ever played. Was way more complex and different than every rpg I've played. Gave up at first but months later, I decided to go back to it and really learn and try to beat it and it easily became one of my favorite rpg games. From that point on it led me into other wrpgs like That Oblivion, Fallout 3, 4, NV , Witcher 3. later Morrowind did became my favorite when I get it again for PC with tons of mods.

I remember my true "next gen" moment on the 360 was in Condemned.
I hit one of the homeless drug addicts in the jaw with a pipe, and his teeth came flying out, and I thought to myself "This is next gen!"

Imagine a TES game skipping PC...
It's 2 engines on top of each other apparently. Unreal 5 and Gamebryo or whatever Bethesda uses.

Oblivion had zero artistic soul. The game had the most generic "western fantasy" art style when it came out. If you want soul, go play Morrowind.

Literally same lol.
I bought Oblivion and Demon's Souls at the same time. I was just a kid, and each game was $60, so it set me back quite a bit. I hated both of them lmao. Oblivion because I wasn't used to that style of RPG, and Demon's Souls because, well, it was the first Souls game and I definitely wasn't expecting that.
I was out of money to buy anything else though, so I forced myself to play through them. I started with Demon's Souls, and after spending months putting hundreds of hours into that, I went back to Oblivion and did the same. Fell in love with both games eventually.

Apparently not.
Xbox S/X, PC and PS5. Probably drop on the Switch 2
I'll be playing on Xbox via GP. No point buying it if I get with my sub.

Already liking this more based on the screenshot and since it's Elder Scroll, seeing the location, npcs, enemies already makes me like it way more even in appearance than avowed.
My god, it's happening! Oblivion absolutely blew my mind back on release, was nothing like it in terms of exploration and open world interactivity, getting out of that sewer tunnel is still one of my top10 gaming moments. The new screenshots are a brilliant upgrade in terms of fidelity but damn they kind of fumbled big time in terms of artstyle and lighting style. Oblivion was all about the heavy bloom and fantastical cozy lighting. It was very colorful and exaggerated in a way that made playing it feel cozy, comfortable, striking and otherworldly at the same time.
The new screenshots basically threw a heavy-handed brown filter on everything to the point it completely dominates the color and loses any semblance of style. It might seem nitpicky but i shit you not it contributes alot to the charm of exploring in an open world game. I used to walk around at sunrise in oblivion for hours just to enjoy the lighting. I hope they change this, or if not, they allow reshade/lighting mods on consoles so we havea a choice because the look does not match Oblivion. I would throw money at them if they get this right, as this game, for all the hate it gets, was a real game changer at the time. Jeremy Soule's music in this was simply unbeatable.
