Comment on Skyblivion fan project lead reacts to Oblivion remake news with "all love and no hate"

It’s not about IP rights, but about contractual obligations. If the mod affects those in some way, the company might ask Bethesda to make it go away.

That’s true. It’s still on Bethesda, but yeah they could have an agreement. Skyblivion has been in development longer than this though I’m sure, and Bethesda was aware of it and said it was OK, so I’m assuming there’s no agreement like that. If there were then Bethesda would have done something that will make them look really bad, which they do tend to do so it is a possibility.
