>Skyrim Remaster to be shown in E3

Sounds like a really stupid idea. I mean, Bethesda has been terrible with the Creation Engine. Honestly, it's like something from 13 years ago. It proves Bethesda is incompetent when it comes to these things. If the ever remaster Skyrim, chances are it wouldn't be so different from the original graphics wise.

Second, who thought it was a good idea to remaster Skyrim of all games? It's pretty recent. Why not remaster Daggerfall or Morrowind instead?

Or better yet, remake morrowind by giving it Skyrim style combat and adding more areas to explore?
>>
>>340509208
>Why not remaster Daggerfall or Morrowind instead?
Because casuals don't care about those games as much.
>>
>>340509208
Pete Hines recently said they won't do Morrowind because they can't just update textures easily, it would take to much effort and said that there was too much dialogue and the dialogue system was too confusing to him
>>
>>340509376
So, you're saying he's, frankly, plain incompetent.

Classic Pete
>>
>>340509208
What exactly would a Remaster include that has not been already done with the Legendary Edition?

And why the fuck would they not release HD Remasters for Morrowind instead? Though preferrably with just texture work and stuff done and no actual gameplay changes.
>>
>>340509376
That interview sent a damn blood vessel off in my brain. Pete Hines is almost literally retarded, I swear, hearing him talk about anything related to Elder Scrolls is painful. I don't give a flying fuck about Fallout anymore, too far gone, but Elder Scrolls can still be saved. It won't be though.

Morrowind definitely has issues, but it's way more deserving of a true remaster than fucking Skyrim. Even Potatoblivion is.But no, it would require "massive effort from a massive team". Like, what? Are you actually straight up admitting in an interview that you're only putting out Skyrim Remastered because it's low effort easy money cash grab with no regards to how your fanbase will feel?

Oh, wait, they don't have to, because Skyrim is somehow one of the best selling games of all time.

No company manages to consistently piss me off more than Bethesda.
>>
You want them to waste time and man power on remastering Morrowind?

Maybe in the future but I wouldn't expect it desu. Skywind guys should get into contact with Bethesda maybe they can get some help and make it official hey it happened before.
>>
>>340509576
Mods on consoles and slightly updated graphics thanks to improved RAM.

Very literally nothing new for PC users, and honestly very little new for console owners, but they don't care. ESO was such a massive flop that normies are 100 percent willing to buy the same game again.
>>
They did the Skyrim Remaster just to push Bethesda.net even further. Then they will push paid mods again.

is this gonna be the youtube video next week where they show modded skyrim next to the upcoming remaster and the modded version looks better and everyone in the comments tells the youtuber that he mixed up the footage
>>
>>340509208

>Why not remaster Daggerfall or Morrowind instead?

Because they are unable to do those games properly, and if they did try they'd inevitably fuck it up and anger old fans whom will rightfully point out the old version would still be better as long as you install a quick graphics overhaul and possibly some other mods because there are lots for Morrowind
>>
>>340509208
You're an idiot. Daggerfall or Morrowind would take a complete remake to make it desirable to the console audience. For Skyrim a remaster is enough, just slap new textures and a few new shaders on it, put it on current gen consoles, and get a few million sales for minimal affort.
>>
>>340509208
>too soon
It's been 5 years, look at the standing ovation TLoU's remaster had and that was only 2 years after its release.
>>
>>340509376
>>340509592
Pete Hines is right

It would take a fucking monumental effort to "remaster" Morrowind. What the fuck do you expect? Literally the same game with better visuals? That does not work people not with Morrowind. It's archaic in design that game.
>>
>>340509737
No, it's gonna be the video next week where they show the remaster and all the Youtube comments are negative, all the internet press is negative, public opinion is negative, and then the game actually comes out and outsells 90% of existing PS4 and Xbone games because console gamers are human garbage.

These are the people who are CRYING, LITERALLY CRYING that they can't purchase COD4 again.
>>
>>340509774
You mean terribly remastered. I mean, just look at FO3 compared to FO4, it looks terrible and barely improved, and they're supposed to be different games.
>>
Slap an ugly ENB on skyrim, use the USLEEP mod without any permissions and bam, you got your remaster. It's just a ploy to get more of the console mods movement rolling, easier to introduce paid mods when you have dumb console cunts supporting you too.
>>
>>340509845
Only the combat needs to be redone gameplay wise, otherwise it would be a simple visual and maybe some rerecorded dialogue. Odin Sphere level, not Ratchet and Clank level.
>>
>>340509718
Seriously these guys need to get into contact with Bethesda and the thing official.

Valve did it with Black Mesa and Bethesda they're cool enough to get on board with something like this.
>>
>>340509576
Textures from the HD texture pack, mod support for consoles and maybe a built-in ENB. HD resolution and 60 fps too, of course.

>>340509592
>Are you actually straight up admitting in an interview that you're only putting out Skyrim Remastered because it's low effort easy money cash grab
That's pretty much what he is saying, yeah. Morrowind remaster would require them to do new textures, do new models for the textures and redesign the enviroment so that the new models wont stand out so much.
>>
>>340509592
>Are you actually straight up admitting in an interview that you're only putting out Skyrim Remastered because it's low effort easy money cash grab

...welcome to business?

Obviously Bethesda should spend millions of dollars remaking Morrowind, and then sell 5k copies of it. That would be the MORAL thing to do, surely?

There's a reason why they hardly acknowledge any mod projects until they think some cash can be made from them.
>>
>>340509718
>>340510056
I wouldn't want that. Bethesda's full of money grubbing people these days, just look at how FO4 was rushed for release.

They would sacrifice quality and competence with a quick buck.
>>
Didn't Skyrim come out just a few years ago? How is a game that still looks top notch with mods on worth remastering?

Why aren't these fags remastering Morrowind like everyone wants them to?

God I hate Bethesda these days.
>>
>>340510073
I'm aware of what business is, but it SHOULD be poor practice to come out and say "we're fucking doing nothing, fuck you, buy our shit"

And yet it won't be because fuck it I guess.

A Morrowind HD would require:
- New models.
- New textures.
- New animations.
- Modifying the engine to re-introduce everything it lacks now (spears, throwing wapons, spell creation...)

Really, "remasters" are a thing now because you get more sales for a very small budget. Morrowind HD would be an entire new project built from the ground up. Also, there's OpenMW; Bethesda is aware of its existence and all the improvements it will have, so why remaster it when there's already one on development for free?

>Skyrim style combat
Morrowind's combat system is something fit for an RPG; Skyrim's is something fit for an action game.

>adding more areas to explore
That would be good, but there's Tamriel Rebuilt already.
>>
>With a game as old as Morrowind (2002!?) it’s not just a case of brushing up the textures a bit. “You go back and look at it. Do you remember the dialogue system in Morrowind?” points out Hines. “Do you remember what it was like talking to someone and scrolling through this long list of questions. You put that out for someone that just finished Skyrim and they’re going to be like ‘What in the hell…?’”

While I agree the dialog might need to be updated (man that thing could get cluttered and 90% doesn't really give anything useful) I'm pissed they think just taking it out was a good idea.

Imagine if it's not a Skyrim remaster, it's an Oblivion remaster.

I mean the chances are slim, but just imagine.

I feel the keyword was a good idea but it got so confusing quickly since you build a giant list fairly quickly. Wouldn't mind if they looked at a way to make it simpler in some way. Not Oblivion/Skyrim level of glue sniffing dumbness but some way to not have a retarded number of words where 90% of the time it gives the same response.

Now what I'm more worried is what they would do about quests and personality. Morrowind was all about giving minor clues where to go or what to do and it was up to you to figure it out. Will they just do a Skyrim and highlight where to go and just tell you straight up on what to do? And what about how people feel about you? Morrowind also had it where everyone had a different feel for you. And even minor actions can change not only them but others. Will they throw that out the window and just have everyone love you?

My skyrim has been remastered since I installed my first mod.

On a serious note tho, what are they even going to change with the remastered version?

Better graphics, got mods for that
Better combat, mods
Textures, mods
More quests, mods
Basically anything, mods

I'm getting the feeling that they're basically just gonna install a few mods and re-release it so the console players can experience a better looking game. But they're gonna try to sell it to PC gamers as well, and people are gonna buy it.

I suppose giving it an improved draw distance and such for Xbone/Ps4 consoles, maybe. Whatever, people loved Skyrim. Those people are idiots, but what can you do.

I don't feel that it's "too soon". Resident Evil's Remake came about 5 and a half years after it was originally released.

The problem is that there's not going to be significant care or expansion.
