This weekend, we’ll discuss about our most anticipated mods that might get released in the following days. But for now, let’s see how to enable ambient occlusion. Contrary to some games, Skyrim doesn’t provide any in-game option to enable it. Thankfully though, we can use the compatibility bit of Fallout 3/New Vegas to force it via Nvidia’s Inspector Tool. Oh, and in case you didn’t catch it, this is another hint that Skyrim’s engine is basically an upgraded version of Gamebryo."
As The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered takes up 125GB, original designer Bruce Nesmith recalls fitting Skyrim into a tiny file size.
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
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.
I agree, I found it an interesting game. But nowhere near worth the hype (unless you include mods)
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
We should leave Obsidian alone. Bethesda on the other hand should be kept under constant psychiatric observation.
Big Bethesda Nintendo Switch eShop sale now live with lowest prices ever for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Doom (2016), and more.
Awesome, gonna do this when I get my copy (damn you, college classes!)
Also, upgraded version of Gamebryo? Well at least Gamebryo was absurdly moddable...
