Are we ever going to see a remake of any Bethesda game? (lemmy.world)

Fallout 3, New Vegas, Elder scrolls Oblivion are my three favorite games of all time If I had to put my finger on them. But it's not enjoyable anymore to simply download them and try to play through them again. There's just something about trying to replay them and it just doesn't work. Maybe I spent too much time playing games with high graphical fidelity lately, or I spent too much time in them back in the day. But if there was a remake, 2028, they released a brand new version of any of these games, it would be immediate purchase for me. I would spend another thousand hours in them with modern graphics and updates. Like a modern game engine... The thing I wonder though is why? Why don't they remake any of their games? Not even Skyrim! They just keep re-releasing it.

Remaking them in the same tired-ass engine would only make them worse and it's not likely they will ever give up their Frankenstein's monster of GameBryo in favor of something that isn't a pile of dogshit.

The last few re-releases of Skyrim where they updated some visual features and added new content (most of which they didn't make) is as close to a remaster or remake they will actually do.
