"Free of charge" ... where can I throw money at this?

[@darkrite9000]

Sadly they don't want to accept money unless absolutely needed. But in case they ever have a donation stream again, then you could technically give them money, but really they only want to make this on their own means. Which is both admirable but still a bit saddening cause the community is fully willing to throw money at this. Probably even more than a new bethesda game, though that's mainly me being cynical of some recent bethesda games.

[@darkrite9000]

@Ucallit 71 Yeah Bethesda has gotten rather lazy over the years. They had to rush out Morrowind to avoid going bankrupt, Morrowind was a big success, putting them in a good spot. But they've adopted the mentality that once a game is "good enough" they can ship it, for Oblivion this wasn't as obvious because the big upgrades in mechanics and such over Morrowind, sure plenty of things were also dropped but it wasn't a glaring problem. But I feel like the jump from Oblivion to Skyrim was a bit different, it just felt more lazy, especially on the story elements. Some things were changed but there's plenty of things that were taken away with only a few things added on. Follow this line of thought for the Fallout series as well, leading to the end point that is Fallout 76 and it's disaster. I'd like to see them put more effort into the details for the next game, sadly I can only hope they change their course, otherwise they may very well just nail their own proverbial coffin shut.

[@saltee8460]

I doubt the team wants to get in any murky legal situations where they’re profiting off of someone else’s game. Bethesda (and now MS I suppose) would be less likely to send a cease and desist if it’s just a free mod that, if anything, requires you to own or buy Skyrim to play.

When I first bought Oblivion 14 years ago, I didn't know what it would do to me and my life.

If there’s anything to get me playing Skyrim again this is certainly it.

[@jelmervandegraaff]

I haven't been playing games for years now, but when I was a teen, I spent hundreds of hours in Oblivion. Seeing this really makes me nostalgic and your dedication and passion hits me right in the feels. Thank you for doing this. This looks like a official remaster, you are as professional as any studio, maybe even more so! Y'all should get hired by Bethesda (or Microsoft) and given a blanc slate!

After recently replaying Oblivion, I had forgotten how much I LOVE his character. Martin is TOO well written, like jesus this is Elder Scrolls, not The Witcher, lol. But previously though, Martin certainly is an amazing character, I actually felt something when he turned into a Dragon God. Which is very unsporting, but awesome nonetheless.

I am so damn impressed beyond words, but I'll try. At first when you heard the name "Skyblivion" you simply thought "Oh it's the Oblivion world ported into the TESV engine cool" and thought that was just it.. But this video really shows the scale and tremendous ambition and love that these people have behind their project and the games. I could never have thought something so beautiful as on this trailer was made by independent modders and not made by an AAA company: this is just incredible. The passion! I'm getting goosebumps.

[@ornado4773]

I've played them all from Arena to Skyrim to ESO. Skyrim is the best of the bunch in the sense of "succesful" it has earned/gained them the most money and is the most popular game LITERALLY. Opinion wise though i would say Oblivion is more interesting and has more to it, but has becomed "dated". Oblivion offers a lot more in terms of game experience and a lot more of it, while Skyrim is large and has a lot to do but is essentially just copy pasted of the same 100 assets. I loved the idea of creating my own class in Oblivion and the idea of Athletics/jumping and "grinding" to get things up, it made me feel great when i had 100 stat in something. While in Skyrim getting 100 in a stat didn't have that same "op" feel. I also weirdly like the Blacksmith hammers to upkeep my equipment and really wished something like that stayed throughout Skyrim as made carrying around more then 1 weapon crucial. I think Skyrim's blacksmithing either needs to go or needs a rework to be MORE. Oblivion you had this weapon you found/bought/earned and a backup or two incase they broke/ran out of jucie. You couldn't go to a smith and make an op/haxors weapon and go PAWNT dragons for giggles. Now i think a blacksmithing system of both skyrim/oblivion would/could work but needs to be retooled to be less OP. TL;DR Give me a game with Oblivion's Leveling System with Skyrim's/Fallout 4 crafting system and Morrowind's Magic System (maybe a bit more balanced/retooled) with the open worldness of ESO/Oblivion. And you got a solid game.

[@damonrudd6599]

I don't believe indirect donations are against ToS, this is why Nexus mods allows donations as well as pays out donation points based off downloads which can be converted to cash through PayPal. You aren't allowed to lock content behind a paywall, but you are allowed to receive monetary donations for content that is otherwise free anyway. That said, I doubt skyblivion will accept donations anyway to avoid potential issues, plus with such a large team it would be nigh impossible to accurately divvy up donations to so many people who have contributed such varying degrees of time and effort. The pay off wouldn't be enough to warrant the effort it would take to maintain, though I'm sure they appreciate the thought nonetheless
