  Yeah they spent years working on a remaster just to dunk on a small mod team.

  Yes, that literally is what they did.

  If Skyblivion had releases first, even for free, far more people would be going… wait, why would I pay for yet another Bethesda remaster… when a free one already exists?

    I mean, I’m sure they couldn’t charge for Skyblivion in the first place. I get that it’s a huge undertaking and all, but they’re still using someone else’s assets and engine that they didn’t get the official license for unlike Obsidian with Fallout: New Vegas.

    Fallout: London didn’t charge, I’m sure for exactly the same reason.
