Skyrim modded with path-traced lighting - and all DX9+ games could follow

Digital Foundry - Enterprising developer Pascal Gilcher, best known for creating a ReShade add-on for ray-traced global illumination (RTGI), has unveiled his work on a path-traced version of Skyrim Special Edition. Even more excitingly, this new ReShade add-on operates on similar principles to Nvidia's RTX Remix, with the potential to add world-space (rather than screen-space) path-traced lighting to thousands of games based on DirectX 9 or later.

It would be great to have a more community led alternative to RTX Remix.

MS could compress their games on disc

Skyrim is still my favorite ES game. I’m playing through it again right now since I never finished it.

Morrowind is by far my favorite. But I’m getting old and played Daggerfall Morrowind and Oblivion before Skyrim

Yeah totally. Definitely won’t be hacking it Nintendo 🤞🏻

Fallout and Skyrim show us that talented developers make great games when you leave them alone

That judicious lack of oversight permeated everything in Bethesda's RPGs, in a positive fashion.

I much prefer a left alone Obsidian and Larian Studios. Bethesda's formula has grown old for me.

Larian hit another level with DOS:2 and then took it even further with BG3. They do high quality work.

Skyrim was a letdown compared to previous games and so was Fallout 4

Kosic58d ago

I agree, I found it an interesting game. But nowhere near worth the hype (unless you include mods)

dmonee59d ago

Skyrim blew my mind when it released. That game took me to the gaming, promisedland. Going back to it when it was updated for the PS5, it felt slightly rough around the edges, but great for its time

TheColbertinator58d ago

We should leave Obsidian alone. Bethesda on the other hand should be kept under constant psychiatric observation.

anast58d ago

Skyrim feels like the game was made in a hurry with a disorganized team.
