I mean, despite whatever reputation UE5 may have, Oblivion was legendarily buggy. Oblivion defined Bethesda's reputation for producing bug-riddled games.
But that is honestly part of the charm.
Im not denying the bugginess of oblivion I'm more concerned about the general unplayability of a lot of Unreal games in this latest gen
Like if the bugs were bad when they wrote the code I can't imagine porting that code into unreal with its famously poor optimizations is anything but the worst case scenario for this remaster lmao
My hope was that they were porting it to creation 2 with upscaled assets and taking some time to squash the most egregious bugs. Hearing it's going to be a ue5 port now I'm almost not even willing to give it a chance. We shall see. For all we know, this could just be industry drivel getting us excited about a fake leak.
This is definitely a ground-up remake, not a port with original code.
Wait, seriously? That is terrifying lmao
Why is that? It's being done by a different studio entirely that specializes in ports and remasters.
The quality of Unreal games is a product of the developer. Plenty of games have been great. Satisfactory and Talos Principle 2, for example.
