Skyrim Remaster Xbox One Receives Over 20 Minutes of Gameplay, Looks Like It Runs At 30fps

Just days ahead of the release of the Skyrim remaster, we finally have some actual gameplay footage to see whether the improvements that Bethesda promised at E3 this year will truly be delivered in the final release.But with over 20 minutes of gameplay footage that was just released for us to see, I think we can put all of our doubts to rest- it seems like The Elder Scrolls Skyrim: Special Edition will indeed be living up to its name, and provide a truly special rendition of the classic game.

An average PC runs this game 60+ fps and we are getting 30fps with drops on the PS4 and Xbox One.Again another cash in by Bethesda,shame on them! We saw Bethesda doing this crap work on Dishonored definitive edition another game that run at 60+ fps on ancient PC hardware but is 30fps on Ps4 and Xbox one and now again on Skyrim remaster,lame,now see reviews going for the 9/10 of this lousy cash in remaster ...

[Palitera]

Money loves graphics, not frame rate.
Nothing new here.

[ginsunuva]

They could have easily done both. It's not like Skyrim has amazing graphics or anything.

[FITgamer]

Glad I decided to go with the PC version. Bogus that they Remastered the game and didn't boost the FPS.

[2pacalypsenow]

Majority of gamers focus more on graphics than framerare, and most gaming companies cater towards the majority because its were the most money is.

[Yui_Suzumiya]

I bought Dishonored Definitive day 1 brand new which is like 1 in 100 games for me. I didn't regret that purchase in the slightest.

[GUTZnPAPERCUTZ]

It's running on the Fallout 4 iteration of the engine, revisions that Fallout 4 already have built in (lighting, Atmospheric filtering, Shadows, Draw distance improvements, etc.) and that game runs at 1080p 30fps as well... so what is your point?

[ColonelHugh]

"An average PC runs this game 60+ fps"

I would hope not. Any frames above 60 and the physics engine bugs out, causing sped up collisions and flying buckets and mammoths. Anyone playing Skyrim on PC needs to limit the fps to 60 or even 59 just in case.

[conanlifts]

Dishonored ran in 4k/60 on my 970 and so does skyrim with the texture packs loaded. My cpu is fairly decent though which might be helping the fps.

Nicce

[Hotabang]

the shop here has it, will get it on thursday XD
(only because i never played it yet)

[RosweeSon]

Same

[MasterCornholio]

I haven't played the expansion's so I see value in the game. Plus it's been 5 years I wouldn't mind playing it again.

However, if it's a broken bugthesda of a game I won't buy it.

@below

I've seen it as low as 50€ here. But if I can get it even lower that would be great.

Edit:

Whoah!!

I didn't mean to anger so many people with my comment. I respect the opinion of others but I believe they should respect mine as well. Plus it's my money so I can buy what I want with it.

[OneLove]

A $60 value?

[Darkwatchman]

I never played any dlc and last played it 5 years ago. I don't think it's a $60 value at all. Maybe at $30, but $60 for a single remastered game from 5 years ago???

[MasterCornholio]

I could always pick up Fallout 4 for 30€ but that game is pretty much broken.

[Dark_Knightmare2]

That's like saying well that movie I really enjoyed came out in 1970 so it's 46 years later and I don't see the value of buying it on Blu Ray or 4k for 25 or 30. I'm just tired of people treating games different oh I beat it so I can never play it again which is ridiculous or I'm tired of remasters I bought it once already but it's fine that I bought Star wars,lotr etc like 6 times on home format. I treat my favorite games like my movies if I enjoy it I'm going to buy better versions of it and I'm going to play through it multiple times.

[Darkwatchman]

@darkknight

Who says I buy movies multiple times??? I don't care much for movies. I only ever got into them with blu-Ray so every movie I've bought I only saw in theaters or i saw for the first time on blu-Ray or they're collection sets of my favorite movies, but at cheap prices. The Spider-Man trilogy and matrix ultimate collections for example were bought by me for $30-40 each.

I don't buy the same movies multiple times at ridiculous prices. Most movies I've bought on Bly-Ray are movies I've never seen. I liked Skyrim. It's a good game, but $60 for a 5 year old game is not worth it. If it was a collection of all the modern elder scrolls games, then yeah. $60 day 1, but for just one game, I'd rather spend the $60 on a game I've never played. Thanks

Edit: Skyrim is also nowhere near one of my favorite games at all. I have no desire to replay it as clearly stated by the fact I only played it through once 5 years ago and never returned to it like all these hardcore fans that still play the game to this day. I don't care enough for the game to buy it again for the price of a new game.

Hell, I even waited for the last of us on ps4, my favorite game, to go down to $40 before I bought it even though I never played any of the multiplayer or single player dlc. I don't like my wallet to get fucked. I don't bend over backwards for developers and publishers.

[SUCKxITxEZ]

Considering Fallout 4 followed the trend, I don't see why they would start polishing their games now. It's not like people learn and stop supporting this shit.

[MatrixxGT]

Maybe because their games aren't "shit".

If people only bought 100% bug free masterpieces then we wouldn't be playing very many games.

[shammgod]

LOL, put an arrow in his head.

regarding the frame rate, that doesnt surprise me

[PlayableGamez-]

I thought it was already confirmed 30fps on both platforms.

[CrimsonWing69]

30fps... that's quite the remaster for $60. Thanks Bethesda!

[zivtheawesome]

am i the only one who doesn't see much improvement in graphics?

[Espangerish]

If the enhancements to the visuals are big enough I could begrudgingly accept this at 30fps as a price for a truly big graphical upgrade.

If it looks much as the original though, then gamers really need to call them out on this as a rather nasty cash grab.

[--bienio--]

Definitely edition released on Pc 2011. Consoles remastered race failed ones again.

[THRASHMOUTH]

If you're going to insult console owners, atleast spell correctly. By the way, enjoy Red Dead Redemtion 2 your PC... oh wait.

[--bienio--]

Haha no worries I will enjoy. Definitely edition a year later on Pc with true 4K.

[Nosferatu_Zodd]

...

[shammgod]

what's definitely edition?

[2pacalypsenow]

Whats a "Definitely edition" and "Consoles remastered race" ?

[badz149]

He might have read that somewhere in 9AG or something

[Yohshida]

Full price for that? No thanks, so many other games need my money over that fraud.

[oof46]

I'm skipping this remaster because I don't have the time to start all over again.

[ClickbaitAF]

It should be 60fps. Once you use mods, then it should drop down to 30fps

[Bluemaster77]

They have to be kidding calling this a "remaster" some of the mods that came out years ago look miles better than this. And they IT DOESNT EVEN RUN IN 60FPS wtf

[starforge71]

got it on pc so i will not be getting it for any of my consoles

[SCW1982]

Out in open areas it looks much better than the original but its still nowhere as good as the modded PC version, lush overhaul still destroys this.

[iistuii]

Have the PC version inc dlc so I get this free. But looking at this I'd be better off with the mods I already have, 30fps still on consoles, shocking..
