I'm down.

Im down if they make it like an MMO but take out all the npcs. so the other players have to act as the worlds characters. That would be so genius.

Bethesda isn't making this. This is fan made.

skyblivion is a dumb name

they shouldn't have bothered with the portmanteau tbh
---

Wow they finally finished.
I first heard about this year's ago.
---

Whatever happened to the morrowind one

Oh, nice. I can't play it, but good for PC gamers.

Still being worked on

Dunno how the Oblivion one outpaced it as my understanding is it started development after Skywind did.
---

Oh shit, just normal people made that . That looks better than Fallout 76
---

Is Bethesda cool with shit like this?

Cause making a trailer for your copyright infringement seems like a bad idea

Bethesda tried that and the end result sucked.

IIRC the mod requires ownership of both games

And this team has done similar stuff before and never encountered issues

Correct. It's also not being sold for profit. It's a mod.

It only took almost a decade.

Bethesda is fine with fan mods/patches/expansions. So I don't see why they'd have a problem with this, especially if it's true that you need to own both skyrim and oblivion to play it. Though I'm still expecting a C&D order any time now.

Is there a release? Or is it available now?

It's cool and all but I feel like these types of hacks/mods never ever get done >_>

Morrowblivion did I think. I know I used something like that because I didn't feel like looking at Morrowind's ugly drab map.

Sheogorath when?
Whodunit when?
Acrobatics when?

Stop right there, criminal scum!

---

By Azura! By Azura! By Azura!

Yeah but is it going to have the same monster mechanics as in the older TES games or is it just going to be dumb hack and slash like in Skyrim
---

Why would anyone want to go backward to the terrible combat of Morrowind or Oblivion? Morrowind was literally no-skill-involved dice rolls under the hood. Oblivion for its part was endless hacking and slashing for paltry damage until the stamina bar drained, at which point you either cast a few spells or sat around twiddling your thumbs until the bar refilled.

Skyrim's combat might be simplistic, but it was at least functional.
---

Because in Morrowind and Oblivion there were different creatures. If you wanted to kill ghosts you had to come at them with silver or magic. If you wanted to kill Spriggans you needed fire. There were feral vampires that could turn you.

Skyrim didn't have any of that shit.
---

In Skyrim Silver weapons still did +20 damage to ghosts and werebeasts. Spriggans and Trolls still regenerate, but there isn't that silly game of 'deal x type of damage or the enemy rises endlessly, lawl'. Vampires can still turn you with their lifedrain attacks in Skyrim. Did you, you know, actually play Skyrim, ever?
---

Yes, I did. 100% achievements in it. The game felt boring and lifeless compared to previous games.
---

Fyi this game and it's Morrowind equivalent are not out yet -- nor are they even close to being released

They're probably never gonna be released, just like all of the other fan games. Unless you've got another 10 years

This is something I think of too. You put dozens and dozens of hours into a game, but you hate it? Like what?

"gee, I sure do hate dicks in my ass, dunno why I keep letting them in there every night."

I mean, the game has entertainment value, but once you play it for that long you start to realize it's shallow compared to previous games.

My understanding (with Skyblivion at least) is that the world itself is done, but quests and NPCs still need to be programmed in.

Oblivion was tbqh worse than Skyrim. The goddamn oblivion gates get old, fast.

Oblivion did have one major thing over Skyrim: good faction quests.

I hope TES6, when it releases in 2024, combines the world detail of Skyrim with the faction quest detail of Oblivion while bringing back the magical variety of Morrowind.

Now do it for daggerfall.

I don't get the point. That just looks like Oblivion with graphics mods.

Just make magic worth a damn period.

Well, destruction magic. Destruction magic is always so useless.

Goddamnit this makes me want an open world rpg LOTR game.

I thought this guy got hired by Bethesda?

The gates were annoying but otherwise the game was way better, and it represented a bigger leap in quality for the series from the previous entry.

Oblivion has to run like shit to look that good

That's true. First time I did the mage's guild quest I got in because I was dragon born and then just smashed everything in my way with a big sword.

Well, if offensive magic wasn't so useless in Skyrim....
