Digital Dreams has shared a comparison video between the vanilla and an ultra modded version of The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion. This comparison video can give you an idea of how numerous graphical mods can improve the visuals of this classic TES game.
As always, DigitalDreams has shared the modlist that they have used. The modlist is called “heartland” and you can find it here.
Now you should always keep in mind that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion came out in 2006. In other words, it cannot come close to what a modded version of Skyrim can look like. Regardless of that, it at least looks better than the original/vanilla version, so that’s something.
Speaking of Oblivion, we also suggest downloading this fan expansion for it.
Enjoy!

In case anyone wants to see just how bad this gets, skip closer to the end when they start showing normal gameplay. Due to being a screen space RT implementation, the lighting starts flashing when walking through grass.
They downgraded the game via MODs, is that what you’re trying to show us, Johnny Boy?
That’s a poor example of “modded” Skyrim tbh… I have a much better looking modded version on my own PC let alone the hundreds of examples you can easily find online. There are aspects of the vanilla version that actually look better then the modded version it is compared against in that video… pathetic.
“That’s a poor example of “modded” Skyrim tbh…” This isn’t Skyrim. Not that your point isn’t valid.
I decided to watch the video before reading the article to see if I could guess which side is modded.
After 5 minutes, I still have no idea. Seriously.
I mean, Oblivion can look 10 times better than this, so I’m not sure I understand what the modder tried to achieve with this look.
This almost looks like an “officiel remaster”, if you know what I mean. lol?

I get sick to my stomach the second I see “ray tracing beyond all limits”
