Expedition 33 is out this week, so it'll have to wait.

I've never played the original so I'm hyped but also I'm cautious about everyone praising this game because of nostalgia. I really hope it delivers!

Hyped, if it's just a graphic update without any changes to animations, voice acting, a little gameplay improvements and...
Extremely hyped, if there are more changes in other aspects of the game, not only graphics.

I loved oblivion much than skyrim, but I am personally boycotting Microsoft now that they are directly supporting the atrocities in Gaza
Microsoft
Microsoft is perhaps the most complicit tech company in Israel’s illegal apartheid regime and ongoing genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza.

so my hype level is skyblivion out of 10, will wait for skyblivion instead

IDK. I love Oblivion but those screenshots kinda gave the feel of a scuffed remake. Turning Oblivion's signature lush green vistas into yet another assortment of gritty mud brown/gray/red is certainly a choice.

From Stockholm but now living in Padova, Italy
I just played Skyrim for the first time since 2011 and it was better than I thought. Oblivion I haven't played since 2009 (and then just a bit on ps3, played it fully on PC on release) and I think the game really need some changes but it has some great things in it too.

This is me. I've been really looking forward to this since reveal and have left myself with a whole week without anything else to play with my FFXIV sub running out (apart from getting back into my MGS4 replay but I pick up and drop MGS games regularly). So unfortunately I can't get into this now. But I am very much looking forward to it. I found Skyrim a little too big and sparse in places even though I did enjoy a lot of aspects of it. I've watched so many Oblivion videos over the years and think my partner might even enjoy it so I am certainly excited and might get to play it in about a month once I'm finished with Clair Obscur.

Do we know if this will be on gamepass? I don't think I can play through it again but I would just like to wander for a bit and look at the art.

I would prefer a Morrowind remake but i'm still interested in this. Oblivion was a fun game, lots of flaws they could fix with a remake to elevate it.

After the condition Skyrim came out on PS3 and how Fallout 76 launched it's hard to get excited for a TES/Fallout game during its launch window because you know just how jank these things are going to be so I'll wait and see how this game will turn out before I comment but as a side note I don't like how dirty they are doing the Skyblivion team with this release.

Meh, I mostly remember the game as a huge disappointment. It was so shallow and repetitive compared to Morrowind. Better graphics is just lipstick on a pig.

I'm more curious about it than hyped. Really wonder if it will be able to recapture what made the original memorable.

I'am playing it currently for the first time and it's aged badly, need to see what gameplay changes are for the remaster first.

I could never get into the og back on the PS3 so maybe this time but it's definitely not a Day 1 pick up. I'll check it out eventually.

Weirdly hyped, despite not playing Elder Scrolls since... Oblivion. Id definitely like to get it, but part of me would rather give Skyrim another chance.

Hyped to hell. It's weird how it's broken beyond gaming spaces. Well weird to me, I don't know it was quite so popular.

I've already spent so many hours on the original game that I'm not sure I'll get much out of a visual upgrade. I started a new playthrough a little while ago, but I just lost interest after a few hours. I'm excited to see it, but it's gonna take more than new graphics and minor changes to blocking and archery to get me invested again.

Even if it's just Oblivion as it was in 2006 with a new coat of paint, I'm still very hyped. Elder Scrolls-games are something special for me, and even a new coat of paint is enough for me to drop whatever else I'm playing and just go fuck around in Tamriel again.

If it has all the same jank as before and 3 voice actors, nah not hyped.

Very curious if they tweak combat and other elements that were already clunky on the original release. If its just a visuals enhancement, it will be a big missed opportunity.

They're making a number of changes to hit responses and bow combat, as far as we know. Can't wait to see what else they add/change

Depending on how much has changed + the cost, I may just get the original on my laptop for modding. If it can run New Vegas, surely original Oblivion won't be an issue. Oh, and zero shot I even play this day 1 with Expedition 33.

i am excited for it, but i am more interested in knowing what gameplay/design has been changed, for example if they redid the busted way skills leveled up and character level, etc
some of the leaked visuals like buildings and such seem good to me, but on other hands some artistic changes don't look good like the more muted colour adjustment we saw at exit of the sewer, but i am not sure if the latter could be caused by simply time of day or not, because one of the other leaked shots looked more vibrant
what was really odd for me in leaked screenshots is the trees/forests... like exit of the sewers, there's less trees on the hills in the background compared to the original. that is really odd

While I know I'll have a great time because the original is deeply nostalgic to me, I can keenly feel that my potential hype is shackled down by the possibility of there not being enough changes.
Currently praying to any Daedra that will listen that the leveling system and level scaling system have notable changes.

More curious than anything. I loved Oblivion, but if it's just going to be the same game but nicer looking, I'll probably skip it for now.

Extremely hyped, I especially want to know they plan to address the flaws with Oblivion's level-up system and enemy scaling. Then I'll play the hell out of it for about a day before I switch over to Expedition 33, then come back when I'm done with that game.

This is to my FF7 remake.
I have so many fond memories of hanging out in Ventrilo while playing all night, playing it on my 360 when i had to sit in Iron Forge for hours waiting for our raid group to get ready and sneaking in some time during raid downtimes. I was obsessed with Oblivion. It's one of very few single players i beat more than once.

I haven't played in a long time and have extremely fond memories, so I'm basically 100% hyped even if it's just a graphical upgrade. The more they add/change is cool by me too. But my main hype factor is, will it be today/ this week? If it coincides with the Switch 2 then it'll probably go on the back burner realistically.

Need to see exactly what they've updated first. Enjoyed the game when it first came out, but I think people who haven't played it but played Skyrim will be in for a shock how much less user friendly so many of it's systems are. I hope they've updated all that rather than just done a graphics update.

That makes me super hyped. I really want them to go far with changing things as the original is both easily accessible and deeply flawed. They could use this opportunity to try things for ES6.

I'll get it on a -50% sale. I played it back in the day, didn't click with me. Not wasting my money. Also Skyrim might qualify for the game I've put the most hours into across all platforms so...

I am honestly unsure
I kind of feel the hype and I am in the mood for an open world RPG, but I never liked obvlivion, even at launch I felt let down, especially from the quest quality. I think only the thief/assassin questline or whatever it was, was halfway interesting. I would have much preferred a Morrowind remake, but in the end I might give in to the hype either way

My hype is going to come down to the details.
The leaked screenshots looked really nice, but I think those visuals over fundamentally the same old, janky ass, dated systems and design will do nothing but drain out what makes the original game charming.
If they did a lot of work to modernize things and improve the combat, my hype will shoot up considerably. If it's just a modern coat of paint over the old game, I'm less interested. I played that game already, and thought the visuals looked pretty good at the time.
I'm also going to be interested to see what the mod situation is. If it's as moddable as a typical Bethesda game, but with UE5-powered visuals? That could potentially be awesome.
