    Bethesdas remaster would probably be nothing more than a version with updated graphics and lighting and support for modern software. This guy is rebuilding the game from scratch in a modern engine.

      updated graphics and lighting and support for modern software

      even that would be expecting too much, I’ll be shocked if that “graphics update” is anything more than only slightly better texture replacements

      These people are rebuilding the game from “scratch” in Skyrim’s Creation Engine version, but it’s still nothing more than a version with updated graphics and lightning. Bethesda’s probably going to be using FO4 or Starfield’s CE version, which will have the same result albeit shinier.

    Why do a remake of the worst ES? Lazyness?

    Bethesda, do a (good!) rework of morrowind, you cowards!

      At least Oblivion, unlike Skyrim, had actual classes (let’s not talk about the leveling system, shall we?) and spell making. Plus some really, really good questlines (including the main quest, and the whole Shivering Isles expansion was rad AF). The cities also felt larger than in Skyrim and the Arcane University was an actual university, not a random village school with 3 students. Role-play wise Skyrim was the weakest of the three modern ES games.

      It can’t be remaked for many reasons. The best they can do is fund OpenMW or give up their assets. Actually making anything from it is not only rebuilding it, but solving many ways Morrowind is fucking broken.

      And I love it for how disfunctional it is.

      They are working with a unpaid team of volunteers vs a billion dollar company owned by a trillion dollar company with 100’s of employee’s.

          100 full time dedicated engineers and artists which probably the majority of them are veterans vs a mod teams team of part time students and professionals. I don’t know do the skull make you look more edgey?
