    Yes, it appears to be true; according to numerous posts all over Reddit and Twitter, you can see

    Wow. Article based on social media posts. Didn’t even try it themselves. Garbage.

      This is just a game. I have been seeing so many serious, life and death related news articles with their source being a tweet. This industry is cooked.

      It’s also inspired by „the wanderer“ painting that has been referenced a million times without most people even realizing that yes, someone did that first.

        Do you mean “Wanderer above the sea of fog”?

        The greenery makes it hard for me to see that. I really love Elden Rings take on that painting:

    Yes. You could already do that in the OG Oblivion. The regions of Tamriel were already mapped out.

    In Skyrim you also have the chance to spot the Imperial capital. It exists as a low poly model in-game.

      Good job, reporter! You’ve done your work to signal boost an AAA game for corporate profits without managing to actually add any new information!

        I think even better is the multitude of sites that have just copy/pasted the wikia ‘Oblivion Console Commands’ page as ‘new content’ for Oblivion Remastered - but quite a few of the listed commands don’t work on Remastered.

        I know they copied the wikia page and not the UESP page too as only UESP mentions you occasionally need to wrap refid’s in commas for Oblivion. (if you’re using a refid as the first part of a command ie. “abc123”.moveto player) which you’ll need to know as PRID is dead.

    You can see the mountain range that borders 2 countries? Stop the fucking presses.

    Just like you can see cyrodiil from skyrim.

    But sure, let’s make an stupid article about it.

      ad revenue isn’t gonna generate itself

        If we can generate content with Ai I’m sure we can generate views too. Just an endless ouroboros of Ai generating and viewing it’s own shit to milk ad money.

      Krocodil. Not even once.

    Call me when you can actually move between regions.

      That game is called Arena. It was the first Elder Scrolls game.

        Daggerfall, too.

      Can you move between them in Elder Scrolls Online? I’ve never played myself, but it would be cool to walk between the locations.

      • rogermiraki@lemm.ee ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        I’ve only ever played it for short spans of time, but Im pretty sure you can. I don’t know how seemless it is.

  • JustARaccoon@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    … yeah Skyrim the region exists just next door to Cyrodiil, crazy that.

    That cover picture looks an awful lot like BG3

    The first good thing I read about the game. The bar is really low with Bethesda

    source
    • MrFinnbean@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Im confused? I have heard mostly positive things about the game.

      source
      • vxx@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        I read it’s badly optimised and even monster PCs cant run it smoothly. It crashes a lot. It’s 55€.

        At least you can see a Mountain of skyrim.

        Even steam reviews from the first day fans are only around 80% positive, which says a lot for the early stage, and most complain about Performance issues and that they cant get more than 60fps

    Are you sure? It looks similar but its not the same.

    source
  • ramble81@lemm.ee ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    So I know nothing about the games but each are set in the same world and right next to each other? Do they take place in the same timeframe?

    Reminds me a bit of RDR1 and RDR2

      Oblivion and Skyrim are 200 years apart, but geographically border each other. Classic Oblivion didn’t render Skyrim, but that was more for technical reasons than anything else. If you get high enough up in Skyrim on a clear day you can see the entire continent.
