So, with the upcoming Xbox Developer Direct many think we may get an announcement of an Oblivion Remaster or even partial remake with some added content to set up the upcoming(eventually) Elder Scrolls 6. Others think It may not be announced to avoid stealing the thunder of upcoming titles like Avowed.

Anyone else hoping this actually drops or have any insight? I'm not really sure who has the real inside scoop.

It has been too long since Skyrim was released, and I would love to play a modern Oblivion while waiting for 6. I also would love a Morrowind remaster.

All indications are pointing to the reveal at the direct. There are so many people reporting it that I'd be surprised if they didn't show it.

It was leaked alongside a Fallout 3 remaster in an official Microsoft filing. Can't remember if it was a shareholder thing or legal thing.

There's a whole generation that didn't get to play that masterpiece. It would print money.

Mr.MattyPlays is the go to for Bethesda. He had an interview with the Toddfather himself awhile back.

Fallout 3 or Oblivion towards the beginning of the year and the other at the later part and I would be one happy gamer. The time between games in each series is ridiculous, it is like they don't want money.

Can they fix the level scaling? The skeptic in me says this "remaster" is just a way to shoehorn the Creation Club (Paid Mods) into Oblivion.

Oblivion does need some TLC though to play more nicely with modern hardware. I guess the mods themselves can fix the broken level scaling. I am still somewhat more excited about Skyblivion, but we'll see what they have on offer.

Just let us have Skyblivion (sp) and let us get on with our lives.

Funny I was just clearing out my Google Drive and came across my most recent spreadsheet where I was tracking level progress to be able to get 3 +5 each time. Truly absurd system they had.

I'll admit that I was late to Oblivion (and was my first foray into Elder Scrolls). I may even have started around the time Skyrim launched.

I remember having to balance leveling and certainly I remember a relief that wasn't going to be an issue with Skyrim, but I don't remember having spreadsheets and the like (which is something I would do).

On the other hand, maybe it was traumatic and I forgot all the minutiae. I know that when I considered going back and playing Oblivion again I stopped myself, "I'll have to relearn all that level balancing stuff." So, there is that.

Mods to fix the leveling system and enemy level scaling are massive game changers. Not sure why they thought either were a good idea to begin with
