Yesterday, news leaked that Skyrim was going to be the latest game to get a remaster, something that was supposed to be revealed at Bethesda’s E3 show this Sunday. But leaks happen, and unless a zillion different sources on this are wrong, a Skyrim remaster is coming, and I, for one, think that’s pretty cool.

Believe me, I am more sick of remasters than anyone. I thought the trend was dying down, but every time it feels like there aren’t possibly any more games to remake, another two or three pop up.

And yet I can’t help but change my tune when it comes to Skyrim specifically. This is one game that I really believe could benefit from a remaster, mostly because the game is effectively immortal. It came out in 2011, but because of the innate appeal of the open world and a vibrant modding community it still has its hooks into players to this very day.

So why not a remaster?

Personally i reckon a remaster of morrowind or oblivion would be better but i cant say im not excited for skyrim to get a remaster, still play it and still love it.

Morrowind would be amazing. Much better than Skyrim but it would never happen cause it would take a lot of work XD

As long as it just becomes a 64-bit game so it doesn't crash whenever you hit the ram limit.

chances are it will only come out of consoles, pc doesnt need it...

I know that is why im glad someone else is remastering it, also it wouldnt sell as well as skyrim.

it doesn't need a remaster. Also it gets this claim that because it's an immortal game (I assume meaning you can play it forever and not get bored which is bullshit but I digress) The root of all of this is the huge, colossal fucking community of skyrim modders.

There is some deep, fantastic, baffling, sickening, awe-inspiring shit that people have made for Skyrim.

So I believe that Bethesda is trying to put a legal stop to all the amazing stuff that people are doing to their game.

They think that people want to play this game so much, but really it got boring after the first run through. Only because of the amazing mods people continue to play it. I think Bethesda is going to be really disappointed with the results

I have a raging erection now

Its not the same though and its taking way too long. They have been working on that Fartwind crap for like 7 years now.

is it from all those traps on Sup Forums?

Not OP but you are exactly right, only reason skyrim has lasted to this day is mods no argument there, maybe the remaster will have mod support as well.

heads up though guys they may be adding mod support for consoles with this remaster!!

yes thats the main point IMO to add mod support for consoles.

I play on pc so im more excited about the graphics getting revamped and what not, but mod support for the consoles would be sick and will most likly happen since they have already done it to fallout 4

It isnt but it is all we got, they have seemed to be making more progress in the lst year tho

I wonder how much of a hit the pc market will take once other devs hop on mod support for consoles. The dev with the biggest modding community has so its only a matter of time.

Not everyone plays on pc, most gamers don't.

If you only play on pc for the mods then sure, but the power of the pc is still a solid reason to use on, also having a pc will allow to more intense mods and more mods in general to run. I dont think the pc market will take much of a hit but time will tell.

True that, guess everyone will just have to wait :(

No you summer autist

Your head.

good point! Apparently the mod limit on consoles is due to microsoft. So they may be fixed!

remastering a 5 year old game is gayer than still playing a 5 year old game.

Yeah but still a console may not beable to run all that content, especially if the game devs are already pushing the system to the max, but as consoles get better then obviously modding potential will too.

Quick question too, is the mods on console run through microsoft, more so are there restrictions to mods allowed?

how so blacky?

Remaster is console only, getting them up to PC standards.
Bethesda games on console are so incredibly bad I'm not even mad.

Is it really console only? :(

Why remaster a 5 year old game that looks better than any current-gen shit when you mod it? I don't think it's going to happen. Wouldn't mind a Morrowind or Oblivion remaster though. Every mod in the world couldn't help those.

How exactly are they going to remaster Skyrim?
Better graphics?
mods already do that
Better game play mechanics?
mods already do that
Extra content?
Again, mods...

Sounds like a cash grab and nothing more.

I agree

>add mod support for consoles.
Won't do shit because console Skyrim will still be on Papyrus and still be unable to use scripr extenders, meaning any mod worth using will not work.

XD

way to be late to the conversation.

We already mentioned all that.

Seems like its aimed more for console then pc, but you are right its all for the cash

Are you implying playing a game that's older than 5 years is stupid? Are you a fucking retard m8? What the fuck kind of logic is that?

>Every mod in the world couldn't help those.

Morrowind with mods is better than Skyrim on any day, you're probably one of those retards that either can't install mods properly or need constant hand holding to enjoy a game like the little faggot you are.

Whats the point of a remaster version, when we have mods. They are free and would propably look better than the new skyrim

Woot

Stop that Morrowind is a niche game and you fucking know it.
People who don't read books won't play Morrowind, and that's 70% of America.

i've got morrowind both on disc and from gog would i be able to mod the gog version? (never modded anything before)

to allow the company more control over its product. They're not making shit on Skyrim now when it goes for 5 bucks on Steam but people are still playing it over ESO I assume.

It's a desperate attempt to take power away from modders.

Yes.

It's going to need more than spiced up graphics for me.

I'd like to see all the shit we saw at Game Jam like spears and werebears.

The COMPLETE Civil War system, not this unfinished garbage we got.

A revisited main questline that doesn't hold the dragonborn's hand towards the Thieve's Guild and College of Winterhold factions.

Didn't know you could jump over me

If they're going to remaster something, why not do Morrowind or some shit? A remaster for a game that came out like 5 years ago is ago is dumb, get remasters of the older games first.

I hated how you wandered into these positions of absolute authority wherever you go.

I would have liked a system where you get one of the three. If you're fighter you're a fucking companion.

If you're a daggersneak you're guild leade

If you, for some god awful reason decide to be a magic user, you're Dumbledore.

You don't get all.

They're two completely different games. Also, no amount of mods can fix the disgusting mess that is spaghetti engine 1.0

I feel the same way, i get it your the dragonborn but you arn't ultimate leader of skyrim controlling everything and everyone.

You do get it all though. That's a lot of people's primary complaint with character progression in that game. Like 10 hours into a character you become an invincible god in your chosen role, and then you have to find some other role to max out. It reduces every character into a pile of stats in roughly the same shape after a good 30+ hours.

I loved being able to program in that game. Made me feel god like.

"congratulations on your wedding, I'm so happy for you two"

Married that sexy young Black-briar chick in my last game lol

the weapon diversity is shit too. two handed is no fucking good, and has no significant advantage over sword and shield.

Also dual wielding is a joke.

4, they just posted an update not long ago.

what are you dumb?...it is not a remaster...at best it is a teaser for elder scrolls VI...

This.
Most good games are old. I like old games emulated and cranked up much better than newer ones. Go try Quake Epsilon fe. Its amazing what modders do these days.
I also dont need a new skyrim on pc. They will never be better than those millions of fans. My Skyrim looks like a movie and has 150+mods running.

Aren't console plebs adorable

i love my skyrim V modded and awesome

Doom 64 ex is great too

...

Why do we need a skyrim remaster? The game still looks alright, on PC w/ mods still better than most games out there. Only thing that needs fixing is the combat system and because of Bethesda, we know that's never going to happen.

Obviously, probably just so the game is on next gen consoles.
It doesn't need to be remastered for PC lol

we don't

I'm not going to buy it unless they add married life sex scenes and more zones.

Also I'm assuming that a remaster will be free of god damned bugs they've had long enough to unfuck that notoriously buggy shit

So that sonyggers can play the game on the PS4

Also Duke 3d modded >^1000 Duke Forever

While I don't disagree with weapon diversity being awful, I've got to say that I've never had a problem rocking any type of weapon in the endgame.

The entire early game is pretty bad for things that aren't sword/shield and bow, but later on pretty much anything is viable. For dual wielding, getting the stamina sap sword from the thieves guild questline and any other decently enchanted sword sorts you out pretty fast. For twohanding I do the companions and get their magical racist axe because the base damage is decent enough until I find something better.

I'd say that magic is the only thing that doesn't feel even half decent in the endgame since you either have not enough mana or not enough health to get you through the day. Conjuring isn't so bad, though.

Mods do that

I would love to play a game like this where you don't go from rag-wearing street rat to having absolutely no reason for money bc you're literally handed all end game stuff.

It's a flaw in all games not just skyrim I know

I know- see the first part of that post.

>bethesda
>free of bugs
There's no way it will be any better than Skyrim in terms of bugs. Skyrim is the second most stable ES/FO game after Fallout 4, which is only any better because it's a significantly less fleshed out game. They've been using Spaghetti Engine since Morrowind and the same graphical bugs have existed through every single "remaking" of their engine.

well, there are mods you can get that reduce loot and xp, making it more work to get where you're going.

I've heard plenty of stories about futa/loli nonsense sex simulators for Skyrim but THAT is the most retarded shit I've ever heard.

Bleh.
Making a game slower doesn't necessarily make it more fun (or a better gameplay experience since so many of you hate "fun"). I've never found a mod that even touched on the uselessness of shops, and endgame weapons being handed to you is an unfixable problem, as it would be equally shitty if you could easily find or buy a better weapon than something that you quested for an hour for.

Bethesda games for pc also have a track record for being bad. Shit never runs smooth and crashes a ton.

It happens in Morrowind roo but you have to work for it at least.

Why would skyrim need a remaster? Its still a fairly modern game

Bethesda games on any platform have a track record for being god-awful in terms of stability. PC ports are usually the best, and then after a few months there's sure to be fanmade patches out. PS3 was certainly the worst for Skyrim, and Xbox had some awful, awful save-destroyingly bad sequencing glitches.

this question has been asked like 13 times in this thread, and have you even bothered to read this thread?

I'd argue that Skyrim is one of the few games that would benefit from going slower. You get strong way too fast.

what are video games?

Skyrims fucking autosave function definitely needed fixing, big time. Can't remember how many times I lost over an hour of progress because I didn't trigger an auto save by opening up my fucking inventory

maybe change how fast you level when you shit out 600 iron daggers and sell them in whiterun

That HQ texture pack they released was junk.

It's possible they could redo all the art. I mean it's not beyond possible.

Source art for the original might be high quality; Although doubtful. If any studio would have considered this it would have been them.

:P

This topic belongs in Sup Forums. Reported.

will you stop crying if I post a tard story?

it's OC

XD XD rawr

k

Sorry, too late. Can't unreport. Enjoy your free vacation from Sup Forums, kid.

Well, they really dropped the fucking ball there, then.

no one cares you ginger hall monitor.

I'm sorry, did you forget this was Sup Forums where you're basically allowed to post a topic of almost anything? Are you upset that it took the spot of one of the 25 porn threads that are bombarding the board daily when there's other boards specifically made for porn? Fuck off

Honestly feel that an Oblivion remaster would be a better call

im OP just to clarify. I am not butthurt not sure why this guy is. Thankws for keeping this thread alive while i took a nap though guiz

OP is the video uploader
are you faggots fully retarded? he's fishing for views

Wow, really? In a few days after the ban wears off you should do a google search for "ad hominem attack" before you embarrass yourself again. Hopefully staying off of the 'chans for a while will give you some time to reflect and mature, maybe you'll start acting your age. Assuming you're not just underage anyway.

I doubt anyone watvhed the video.

we are not the same person don't lump me in with that butt munch. go away unless you wanna talk about vidyas. Ty for for continuing to bump btw.

lol new fag.

>staying off of the 'chans
Is this a cringe thread?

Also post hair with timestamp to prove you're not ginger.
