Summary

  • One fan, tired of waiting for the rumoured remake, has turned Oblivion into a boomer shooter.
  • They shared a brief 40-second clip where they carve through pixelated Adoring Fans and even the Emperor.
  • However, it's not a playable mod. The HUD was added in post, and it only appears to feature this one level.

While we're busy jumping from one Oblivion rumour to the next, eagerly awaiting the leaked remake that was supposed to shadowdrop last week, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:now later this month, or 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:maybe in June (it's no wonder 168澳洲幸💫运5开奖网:the community is starting to doubt that it exists), one fan has been demaking the o⭕riginal, transforming it into a boomer shooter.

, showing off their unique rendition of Cyrodiil, where they wade through a low-res Imperial building and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:carve through pixelated Adoring Fans as they chant "By Azura!" in unison. Naturally, it ends with the Emperor's death, but this time, it's the player who cuts them down — mid-creepy-dream speech. There's even a jacked city guard with a sleeveless chestplate, yelling, "You violated the law!" while hurling fi🐻reballs with a shotgun.

"I Would Actually Play The Hell Out Of This": Don't Hold Your Breath

It's a fun little video, reimagining a classic RPG in the vein of Doom and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Wolfenstein, but don't expect it to release anytime soon, because it isn't a playable mod, just a showcase of what a boomer shooter spin on Oblivion could look like.

What we saw was likely the only level, a showdown lasting less than a minute. Even then, it's far from finished, with the HUD only being added in post. And if it were a functioning mod, u/Sloth_Johnson probably wouldn't post it online, anyway: "Don't think I can ever release this sadly, with all of the Be🍨thesda assets and whatnot".

u/Sloth_Johnson made their Oblivion𒅌 demake with the Easy FPS Editor (EFPSE).

But fans have suggested that it would be fine as a Doom mod, so long as it isn't monetised (after all, there are fan-made Simpsons, Sonic, Alien, Halo, and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Star Wars add-ons readily available), while others have✨ implored u/Sloth_Joh💮nson to send them private Google Drive links, doling out the Oblivion demake in a digital back alley away from prying Bethesda eyes.

Granted, they wouldn't be the first modder to turn The Elder Scrolls into a boomer shooter for a video and leave it at that. in 2016 that showed Daggerfall recreated in Doom. While✨ they said that they "might revisit it some day", ten years later, it doesn't look like they ever did.
