All I wanted from the remake was character models that didn’t look like cartoons and a leveling system that didn’t punish suboptimal builds, and by God that’s what they delivered.
People keep clamoring for a Morrowind remake, and I disagree. It’s perfect the way it is. Oblivion NEEDED this.
I think Bethesda has definitely fallen off in recent years, but I am a bit confused by the point this post is getting at. We learned at launch that Oblivion is a remaster, not a remake, and it’s just the original game running under the hood with a new coat of paint and some minor tweaks. And it’s a pretty high-effort remaster at that.
I just think it’s a bad example to use of how the company isn’t getting better, when the point of the remaster was to change as little of the core game as possible. It’s as good now as it was back then but it’s still a 19-year-old game.
Starfield is what should be killing everyone’s expectations of Elder Scrolls 6.
Maybe they’re trying to get potential players of Elder Scrolls VI so hyped that they’ll still play the new game even if it’s sold ‘games as a service’ style
I personally don’t really pre order or set up prior expectations for games these days. No matter the company’s prior track record a game is only judged on its own, not because how good a previous game was. Oblivion is great because it is, In my opinion, better than Skyrim. It is dated by today’s standards. Heck starfield was dated as well. Even when elder scrolls vi comes out I don’t have any high expectations for it.
I had a random urge to play civ iv, but I’m still too bad to beat the cheating AI. Almost finished with Return of the Obra Dinn now, that one is very unique
Roots of Pacha. Great game. It’s like stardew valley, but you play as a member of a migrating hunter-gatherer tribe that finally settles down to discover farming and slowly starts building a village.
They keep pushing GTA V for free on PSN, except that it’s not GTA V. Period. Full stop. It’s GTA :O without the single player and absolutely nothing on the store page itself says this. You only find out when booting it up. 😬
Tried getting the gyro on my Steam Deck to work with Dolphin, but no such luck. So I’m back to playing Pokemon Rejuvenation. I think the only other games I have played recently are Plants vs Zombies: Reflourished, Backpack Hero, and Fire Emblem Heroes.
I finished South of Midnight, and overall I had a good time, although I wish it would have given some of the later game characters a little more depth. I really liked Hazel as a protagonist. I would love to play more of her, even though this does seem like a stand alone game.
Still on X4, over 150h in now. Got a small fleet of destroyer ships and “conquered” a sector that was originally Xenon owned (Tharkas Demise I think, north of Hatkivah Choice). The problem is that they keep sending fighters and, once in a while, a destroyer - the latter WILL destroy 1 or 2 of my destroyers if I’m not manually piloting one of them
