And today, we are presenting you another Texture Pack using AI techniques (ESRGAN to be more precise) that improves all textures by 4X times and weights around 16GB in size."

This is with the assumption that the new textures actually look better, just because they are higher resolution doesn’t mean they are better.

Wolffenblitz1818d ago

Assumption? They have examples... in the article...

meep3161818d ago

ya, and the new textures look like crap even though they are sharper. Im not sure why my statement went over your head, they are obviously making the assumption that higher resolution = better no matter what.

If this is true, I hope it leads to Morrowind getting remade next.

-Foxtrot18d ago

I thought they’d go for Morrowind first to be honest but this is a welcoming surprise to tide us over before ES6

TheColbertinator17d ago

Well said. Exactly my thoughts too.

Tedakin18d ago

Unreal Engine isn't efficient for open world games, so I question the reliability of this story.

isarai17d ago

Yeah, 1st thing that came to my mind too, although i CAN see it being likely for ease if use, but it's not going to run very well if so

Tacoboto17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

I'd wonder if it would just be exploiting Unreal for graphics but the underlying engine/logic is still the original framework.

Like how we had the graphical remakes of Halo Anniversary, Tomb Raider I-III, and Demon's Souls.

Could also end up a disaster like the GTA Trilogy

mkis00717d ago

I have heard that too but even if it's modified isnt arkham knight UE?

Fragslayer17d ago

"remake will run both an Unreal Engine 5 project and the old Oblivion project. For instance, new graphics are rendered in the Unreal Engine 5 project, but most of the gameplay and physics are still done on the original Oblivion engine"

So with this logic it'll run just fine using UE5 tool sets on top of Gamebryo's engine or maybe even Creation Engine, who knows.

Hopefully modders can fix the aged combart in this game if this is true. Enemies leveling up with you broke and defeated the whole purpose of leveling up.

Fragslayer16d ago

Yeah it could use some tuning for sure hence the need for a Remake not a Remaster. I'm surprised it's even a conversation within them group which makes me skeptical it's Oblivion. I wouldn't say they shouldn't level up at all though maybe just a leave them a couple levels behind to appease the masses.
