Morrowind remake with Bloodmoon, Tribunal, and new additions on a map larger than Skyrim, in a self-contained portable VR set that also works as a handheld and PC. I will pay $10k for that if I have to live in a cardboard box.
Tamerial Rebuilt, the Cyrodil mod, and the Skyrim mod, with either the Script Extender or with the OpenMW engine will do all of that for you.
Good to know. How do I get started learning how to do all that?
Start here!
Yup!
And a collection of mods that'll give you all the extra landmasses and pretty things along with QoL can be found here:

Morrowind's lore and artistic direction was far superior to Oblivion and Skyrim. I will fight people who disagree with this (not physically though, that hurts).
Absolutely. But at the same time, the base game is not all that approachable. Remake Morrowind with a proper combat system but leave the rest of the gameplay as is. I mean the lack of quest markers and everything. It's awesome the way it is. I'll buy several copies.
I enjoyed the lack of the quest markers. The thrill of exploring the wilderness, trying to find the location, and the haunting cries of a Cliff Racer.

N'wah!
Okay skoomer
Daggerfall when
Well if the pattern is to be followed, we have three more oblivion releases, and 3 more morrowind releases. So that’s like a decade at least
Right before Arena!
Omg the arena in Morrowind...
They already have Daggerfall Unity.
I kinda wonder if that had something to do with the decision to do Oblivion.
It's probably more to do with preempting the eagerly anticipated Skyblivion, which is scheduled for release some time this year..

Right now for free, now using Unity
You'd be surprised how good it can get with mods. In comparison to the OG game of course.

Fuck lmfao
I forgot about this meme I fucking loved it.
I swear to fuck if this post cancels Morrowind Remastered there will be consequences
Morrowind was the best of the series. I would love to see it remastered and the mods ported.

Of the entire series, this is the only one I've always been holding out for.

They don't have the creativity or the engine capability to recreate morrowind unfortunately.
I'd love to be proven wrong. But I won't. I don't want Morrowind in the Skyrim engine. I want to fly.
To be fair, the remaster used UE5. Bethesda is apparently not above some engine fuckery, and there's also remade engine for morrowind in the form of OpenMW. Do I know what I'm talking about here? No, not at all, but if someone explains to me why I'm wrong I'll be all the smarter for it, so fuck it. Posting this.
The remaster used unreal 5 for the graphics and creation for the game logic. It's still the same shitty creation engine it always has been
Well, I guess that's a step up, somewhat. Starfield ran like hot garbage on my steam deck, so I'm glad they did that.
I can't blame them for using the same framework. Porting a game between engines sucks 7 tons of ass, especially when it wouldn't even more their biggest project happening at the moment, and the bigger project uses the old engine most likely.

I'm putting my bets on Skyrim Remastered before we see Morrowind or TES6.
Or maybe a skyrim-(or fallout-)based battle royale shooter, i could see that being very likely too.
A roguelike metroidvania with soulslike mechanics in the TES universe
Needs more buzzwords.
Maybe a farming sim mechanic is in order, and "cozy aesthetics"
Can it also be a deck builder?

People are going to make mods to bring back the older graphics.
So we can expect 5 fallout 3 remasters around 2040
The remake trend has been going on for a minuet now and a lot of once great game companies are now just stagnate. Blizzard is another one that comes to mind. If you want new and better games I think you need to start supporting indie games and projects like Godot that make indie game development possible.
Oblivion Remastered is fucking awesome though. Blown away it manages to maintain what makes it fun, quirky, and bad and add new fun, quirky, and bad aspects to itself. It has genuinely been a blast to the past as someone who is now an adult that started playing Elder Scrolls as a teen.
I would love to see Morrowind next. Hate all you want Bethesda absolutely picked the perfect Elder Scrolls game to remaster.
I'd love to have Oblivion replace Skyrim.
I don't get the hate. If a game is fun to play, then I'd much rather have the option of playing it with better graphics. People ITT are acting like the existence of remasters prevents new games from being made, which I don't believe is actually the case. The bulk of the work on Oblivion Remastered wasn't even done by Bethesda developers, but by an external company that specialises in art production.
I wish they'd do a proper remaster of Might & Magic VI in a modern game engine.
