Holy shit, I got Baldur's Gate 3 recently on sale for less than this lazy remaster of a 19 year old game.

Gamers are lapping this shit up too. What happened to the rage people had for the Switch 2 being expensive?

Ive used this as an opportunity to be real fun at parties and point out to libs “Bethesda is on BDS, so this is kinda like Hogwarts Legacy and you’ll have to decide if a video game is worth it.”

you’ll have to decide if a video game you probably already played over a decade ago is worth it

Just adding an extra detail in there lol

Yes gigachad-hd

It doesn't even seem to have Denuvo, so it should be easy to pirate too.

the mod isn't. our comrade is correct i expect people to already have skyrim and/or to pirate it for this purpose.

if skyblivion is annoying to install like fallout london is or if it needs a version of hodd toward's opus, i'll be getting mine from fitgirl

I guess I don’t follow, if someone clicks to buy it on Steam, does Bethesda get some of the money or not? Or is this free if you already own Skyrim?

as far as i know it's going to be a free mod, doesn't seem like the kind of thing that would be allowed in the steam workshop or whatever bethesda's paid mods thing is called

Ok I’m like two levels of misunderstanding deep here, you’re talking about a fan mod that people could play instead and not the remaster from the original post. bleh

I'm guessing that they're making the assumption that someone interested in this Oblivion remaster would already own Skyrim, but yeah, don't buy stuff from MS if you can avoid it people!
