oblivion is my favorite in the series, but goddammit bethesda stop making remakes. make a make.

I mean, Starfield should have been my dream game, but after that...

I dunno. All my enthusiasm for BGS has been sapped, and I adored Oblvion.

the scope for starfield was just too much, it was doomed to fail from the beginning. i think they'll be fine going back to their TES roots.

Wishful thinking.

eh, i don't see any reason why they can't churn out another TES or FO like they have been for years. my problems with starfield were mostly unique to the galaxy map and space.

The remake is not developed by Bethesda Game Studios

I bet the remake will be fine, it's just technical upgrades, no new writing or anything. Maybe not as "soulful" as Skyblivion, but fine.

What I am more worried about is "fun" writing and storytelling in new games.

EDIT: Wrong reply, but you get the idea @acosmichippo@lemmy.world

Why take a third risk (Fallout 76 and Starfield) on the unknown when you can remake a good thing?

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 9 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

FO76 and Starfield were much much more risky than TES6 or FO5 will be.
