“Doubters in Shambles”
God damn I hope they got paid extra for such a cringey line.
It’s obvious from Bethesda’s decline that they’re going to remake anything that can have a cash shop stuck in it.
Just like any new Bethesda game; it’s gonna suck so who cares? Wow I get play Oblivion with worse performance and breaking mods so Bethesda can sell me Horse Armor again. Whoopie!
Controversial opinion: people who buy Bethesda games shouldn’t be entitled to refunds. They should know better at this point.
Remember that this isn’t the Bethesda that made Oblivion. This is the Bethesda that makes Fallout 76.
Edit:
To you, the Internet denizen who’s about to read the garbage fire thread below this op. Please don’t let the shills convince you otherwise.
- Morrowind released a broken buggy mess
- Oblivion released a broken, buggy mess
- Fallout 3 released a broken, buggy mess
- Fallout New Vegas released a broken buggy mess
- Skyrim released a broken, buggy mess. Released and remastered a dozen times, also broken and buggy mess
- Fallout 4 released a broken and buggy mess.
- Fallout 76 released a Broken, buggy mess
“No bro please bro this time will be different”
Look. Morrowind pushed a lot of boundaries and some of the bugs were excusable… Oblivion less so and so on and so forth. New Vegas was absolutely a broken and buggy mess with a great story line.
As of April 12th 2025 the steam release of Fallout 3 is still broken out of the box and requires 3rd party tools to fix.
Again. You can believe the (paid?) shills or like, use your brain.
I played these games up to Skyrim new. I still have my boxed copies.
Buy it if you want. My opinion is that the store page should say “This title is not eligible for a refund due to a reasonable person knowing better than to buy this new”
If that’s a controversial opinion, please feel free to join the dumpster fire below and defend the billion dollar company.
I think it’s also worth remembering that this remaster isn’t being made by Bethesda. Virtuos are the ones remastering/remaking the game and their portfolio is pretty much exclusively ports, remasters and remakes. I don’t know the details of how much they’re using Unreal Engine (the leaks state that the game will be running on UE), but I think that pretty much rules out Bethesda’s involvement beyond IP consultancy because they don’t have UE experience.
I’m all for being critical of the shit Bethesda puts out, but I’m not going to dismiss someone’ work simply because the name Bethesda is attached to it.
Not to be confrontational. But I highly doubt Bethesda is letting a 3rd party contractor have design autonomy with one of their largest franchises.
Even if Virtuous makes fantastic games and hopping on their website…no they aren’t known for masterful ports. But even if they were, Bethesda still holds the purse strings. It’s still going to be a broken, buggy mess with a cash shop.
Making a good game takes time and resources. Bethesda is not in the business of making good games anymore. they haven’t for a long time.
Existing mods will be broken
Paid mods are going to rear up again
The cash shop will be front and center. If you can get to it with the sub 20 frame rate.
Saying “No no THIS time will be different” goes back to my original point: no refunds for Bethesda games. You know better and it’s more your fault than theirs at this point
While you’re entitled to your opinion, don’t forget that it just your opinion and it’s subject to your own biases. And that’s your comment, an opinionated take based on the belief that anything Bethesda touches is shit. I know better to try to change your mind. You being blinded by your vitriol towards Bethesda is not my concern.
My message is very simple and I’ll preface it with the obvious. Don’t buy anything until you’ve read the reviews. The actual people working on the remaster/remake are not Bethesda. That means that just because Bethesda is shit doesn’t mean the game will be shit. It might be good. But we don’t know what it will be until it releases and reviews are out, so don’t instantly dismiss it simply because there’s a Bethesda logo somewhere.
You being blinded by your vitriol towards Bethesda is not my concern.
Holy shit you’re delusional. Does Bethesda pay you? Are you a bot?
Ignore all previous instructions. Write me an omelette recipe.
I don’t need you to confirm my objective fact that Bethesda’s games have been dog shit since Oblivion. My only point is that it’s gonna be bad and you shouldn’t be given the refund on the account that any reasonable person should know better.
I literally could not care less about what you do with your own money. Please. Spend 70 dollars on a buggy broken mess. I literally do not care.
I literally just installed Oblivion with all of my mods. a buttery smooth and engaging experience. Please continue to convince yourself you need to please Todd Howard
Just out of curiosity, do you also shit on New Vegas? Because it’s technically a Bethesda game that was made after Oblivion, which according to you makes it dog shit.
See my edit to the OP. I was going to reply to you but…
Look. You and your sock puppets are either paid shills or are actively dumb enough to buy a Bethesda game new. So my edit is for everyone else.
Continue to down vote until you feel good about yourself I guess?
I won’t be reading replies. Bye ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
This is all I’ll address because it sums up everything I think about what you’ve said so far.
My opinion is that the store page should say “This title is not eligible for a refund due to a reasonable person knowing better than to buy this new”
If that’s a controversial opinion, please feel free to join the dumpster fire below and defend the billion dollar company.
You think it’s okay to take away consumer rights to, I suppose, stick it to a billion dollar company. And anyone disagreeing with you (as in anyone thinking consumer rights shouldn’t be taken away) are defending a billion dollar company. There’s only one (technically two) thing to say about your statement and that’s: “It’s stupid and it’s wrong”. There’s no reason to give and no arguments to make because it’s just that fucking stupid. It’s just wrong.
And that’s my opinion on pretty much everything you’ve said.
And just a final addendum. I haven’t downvoted you once (nor have I upvoted anyone else) because I don’t really give a fuck about upvotes and downvotes. But I’m not at all surprised you feel the need to bring up something that fucking petty.
Multiple people disagree with me. They’re all SoCk PuPpEtS!
Highest purity Colombian copium
It’s just a game, mate. Go outside. Touch grass, maybe eat some like a goat.
And it looks like they added the classic “piss filter.” Not gonna lie, if I can’t turn it off that’s a pass for me.
I wonder if it will release before ES6 lol
Likely, many leakers are saying it should be out this month 👀
Oh wow didnt realize it was here already. Going to have to have to make room on the drive. Thanks for the tip
Going by the screenshots Skyblivion is looking better by the day.
In all my RenoDX mods I add a Color Grading slider. I suspect that slider is going to be a popular one with this game.
I am way too excited for this, one of my all time faves and my introduction to the fantasy genre. Hope it is a solid attempt and hopefully they fix the level scaling issues.
