    Wouldn't be the first time modding projects ended over similar reasons.

    And this isn't old Bethesda, this is Microsoft Bethesda, and we'll have to wait and see.

    Edit; Skyblivion team doesn't seem too concerned (from their Discord), likely because you need Skyrim, Oblivion and they make all their own assets. Other than that, it was mentioned they were recently featured by Microsoft Bethesda as a showcase of modding.

      Bethesda will probably be providing some fixes, filters, godrays, and a texture pack glued on top. If at all—if it was "originally set for fiscal year 2022" while 2023 is nearing end, it might've been canceled.

      Meanwhile, Skyblivion project has everything remade.

    There was something to the rumors of an Oblivion remaster?! FO3 and New Vegas also at least need updated engines, to a point, they're rough to run on modern OSes, and I always have to patch the engine and add a couple NVSE/FOSE mods.

    This is a lot they were planning, which is kind of shocking.

      NV seems to run OK for me on linux. That is, no worse than it ran 10 years ago on Xbox... so maybe not that great.
