This article delves into the exciting world of total conversion mods for Bethesda games, focusing on Skyblivion, a highly anticipated remake of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion using the engine of Skyrim. It discusses the challenges and allure of these ambitious projects, comparing Skyblivion's progress and release window to other unconfirmed endeavors.
A" total conversion " is one of the most coveted and difficult modding projects one could undertake: Making a new, bespoke campaign using the mod tools of a pre-existing game, with the end result unable to be monetized due to copyright . At a certain point, you'd probably be better off just making your own indie game, and that only makes these Moby Dickian efforts all the more enticing.
And the game just looks great: It's Cyrodil as I remember it, while the Skyblivion team's many changes and updates all serve to enhance the feeling of dreamy, nostalgic high fantasy haze that I associate with Oblivion. If Bethesda really does have its own, official remaster waiting to be announced, I'm eager to see how it might compare, and a duelling games scenario between a developer and its own mod scene has the potential to be a year-defining story.
Still with me? The upshot is that this team has demonstrated a similar level of organization and open communication to Skywind and Skyblivion, with project leader Gallejro frequentlyon YouTube. I'm particularly excited to see how this team maintains and reinterprets Redemption's near-1000-year timespan—the modern-day gameplay they've already shared looks great, especially considering it's being built in Skyrim.
