When will devs learn that unreal engine is not built for open world games. The only reason Dead Island 2 ran decently is because it's world is split into small hubs.

https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/blog/new-example-project-and-plugin-for-mod-support-released but I have not seen it widespread and it would have to be enabled for the game and I doubt Bethesda even has the technical expertise to enable this on the remaster when it is a mess of a game running both UE5 and Gamebryo especially when you need to do separate mods combined to handle graphics (UE5) and logic (Gamebryo) to make a complete mod that isn't just texture replacements and etc. I imagine people are just going to port the improvements back into the original game instead.

>>5645You can make Oblivion Large Address Aware which will allow it 4GB max and it fixes stability issues and leaks with the OG game but yeah, it would be torture to port the graphics 1:1 back to the original. The way forward might be to take the remake's Gamebryo 64 bit executable and then hacking the OG graphics engine back in which would fix the issues with the OG and probably give that modding scene new life. If someone could port the improvements, more the better but that probably goes against why Bethesda didn't just update Gamebryo for the remaster and do everything in that engine.

>>5650Based on the second part it's more that they're not willing to do any customer support for mod related issues. That's not too big of a deal, but might mean they're not going to make a Creation Kit thing for it, which means mods will be heavily limited.

>>5637Sure am glad I haven't been playing new games for a while now. There's an argument to be made about games getting more intensive to run and larger since it's been like that since video games were created, but in my experience the bloated file sizes haven't come with any compelling reason for them. I guess it's texture size and diversity but especially in this game I doubt that's visible.
No.5660
>>5649They recorded new lines so everyone isn't just the same guy voicing things differently and also added more sounds effects and hapatic feedback. They reworked third person view so it's not as cumbersome and more like Skyrim. And that's about the extent of pure improvements. Everything else like reworked leveling and sprinting and graphics is more or less up to interpretation and have downsides.

An Oblivion thread talking about actual aspects of the remake rather than raging about the "w-word"? I love this place.
Except for the original's liberal use of the bloom effect, I'm fine with the old graphics. What worries me about the new version is how readable the UI and font size will be when played on a 7" screen. Everyone was complaining about an 'oversized interface designed for playing on a TV' and the 'betrayal of PC gamers' back then, but years later it proved to be a godsend when you are playing on a Steam Deck.

Some games are starting to have scalable UIs in PC, which makes sense when you are releasing for PC and consoles (including Switch) and share a lot of the codebase, although it's not usually the norm.

Nexus has 55 pages of mods for it including the all-important Script Extender:
https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/282So, yeah, modding will be big for this even without a creation kit. I ended up spending 2 years downloading, editing, and fine tuning mods without ever getting past the starting town in Skyrim so I'm not going to enter that world again.

>>5824They're actually busy getting spammed by shills and trolls making unfavorable comparisons between OG Oblivion and Skyrim. Part of it might be that they already made their allegiance clear with Starfield and this constitutes a step back from that, but I think it's mostly that the original was actually played by a ton of people so they are invested in and can criticize it and its remake in a lot more ways than usual. Usually when the news makes it clear a game is inundated with that shit /v/ just doesn't buy it and the conversations are thus based around trailers and hoping for it to fail and crash the industry.
