Digital Dreams has shared a new video in which they showcase The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion with over 200 mods and Reshade Ray Tracing. Oblivion came out in 2006 and this video will give you an idea of what a heavily modded version of it looks like.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion was a graphical powerhouse when it came out. At that time, most of us believed that games could not look better than that. Oh, how naive we were. Fast forward to 2020 and its unmodded version looks dated as F.
Again, keep in mind that this is a 2006 game. So yeah, don’t expect it to look as impressive as Skyrim modded. Nevertheless, it looks cool (especially for those that still play it). Not only that, but Digital Dreams have shared the list of mods they used in order to capture this gameplay footage (Bevilex Modlist from here).
This video also shows how impressive this unofficial port of Oblivion’s Imperial City in Unreal Engine 5 actually is.
Speaking of Oblivion, modder ‘VKVII’ released two new HD Texture Packs for it. The first one improves the textures of all Cathedrals, while the second one covers all Castles. You can download these new packs from here and here. These packs are also compatible with the previous HD Texture Packs that VKVII released earlier this month. And, as we’ve already stated, these new packs are most likely incompatible with this AI-enhanced HD Texture Pack we shared back in August 2020.
From what we know, Bethesda does not plan to release any remaster/remake of Oblivion. Thus, this is the best way to replay this TES game.
Enjoy!

The best ES game once the modders fixed something like 5,000 issues with the game although Morrowind was a close second. Skyrim is a fail compared to Oblivion and Morrowind.
It takes about 80 hours to complete the game and side quests and the two expansions but you could spend almost 200 hours if you are a completionist.
I don’t think the next ES game will be as good as these two.

this one’s better
It’s the exact same modlist from the same modder (Bevilex) 😛
If that’s the case this video still looks better. The foliage and amount of grass is definitely better. The version in this article is far too barren it feels.
From just a quick look, I can immediately tell that the RTGI is not implemented correctly LOL
Raytracing this remaster that and there are still no shadows and the lighting is basic as f@ck.
better check this out

Dumb comparison, the skyboxes in the stalker games are literally real photos of the sky LOL
lol… I’m going to write a very unoriginal comment, but it’s true :
This is how I remember the game looked in 2006. ?
