  All of the quests, game logic, AI (including brain dead NOC interactions), voice acting, etc, are exactly the same as in the original and are actually driven by original GameBryo engine. They only rerecorded some lines to add unique voices to NPCs of different races and made some minor gameplay tweaks. The only major changes are graphical - UE5 is used for rendering, all meshes, textures, landscapes and animations are redone.

    I hope they kept all the realy bad voice lines from the original. It was part of the charm

      They specifically mention this in the announcement stream and say that stuff is important for the same reason you do, so it’s all still in there, though they say they’ve also recorded new lines too. Will be interesting to hear!

  It’s still creation engine with UE5 stapled on top, the only gameplay change was making the leveling system more like skyrim.

    Wow that was one of my favorite parts about Oblivion. You could break it so easily

    I had a wizard who was maxed out in basically ever skill except the magic skills so when I finally did the mages guild quest line I was face tanking everything

    I was so over powered I started breaking the enchantment system bc I had done every important quest and could afford anything (100% chameleon was hilarious)

    And let’s not forget that jumping off mountains to level up is clearly the best mechanic of all time

    Maybe I’ll skip this one if they removed the good jank

      That’s literally still possible. The change is that your attribute points are distributed by you after you sleep, rather than being based on what skills you leveled up in that level. If anything this allows you to be more overpowered, I’m level 5 and have 75 strength and endurance. That’s unthinkable without minmaxing.

        I’ve power-levelled up to 25 by now, I’ve maxed out Intelligence and Willpower, and almost maxed out Strength. I have 60s in both Speed and Luck, and then I’m gonna see if I can get the rest of the attributes maxed out.

        I love that levelling minor skills contributes to your overall level xp, so there isn’t as hard a level cap as there used to be.
