And if they changed it too much you’d complain and say “it’s too different” you people just loooooove complaining
Oblivion is aggressively verdant. The fuck happened?
They are pursuing “realism” but the pursuit of realism also means that you must sacrifice strong artistic style, because style is - by very definition - deviation from realism.
It’s April. Have you looked outside lately? Reality’s pretty fucking green.
Skyrim was already grey rpg. They can’t do that again. So now it’s brown rpg. Maybe next we’ll get fuchsia.
Brown RPG was the one before that!
They kind of did fuschia with the shivering isles iirc
If that is the only difference you can see you need some new glasses
Skyblivion better

I’m still excited for it.
What are you guys even complaining about here? The color pallette? Really?
Never said I wasn’t excited friend, I would love to have another romp through my childhood. I complain because I love this game, and would like to see it how I remember. If it comes out with the brown filter over it, it’s whatever, it’s oblivion it will get modded back.
But I daresay there’s much worse things we could be doing online than griping about an old favorite, harmless fun I’d say.
The piss filter is back baby!
What is old is new again
Freakin’ VGCATS, my man! What a blast from the past
That comic is still alive!?
Kinda. The website was inactive for a few years there, and only recently started updating again. The author was focusing on Patreon, which was reportedly porn of the VGCats characters.
Not really. It’s porn now.
We’ve known since the 2010s that brown equals realism.
Yes, in polluted cities.
Add a tiny splash of yellow tint then we get Mexico

brown
This trend is quite an explosion.
Oblivion without its megasaturation and bloom is gonna look weird
Right? I grew up in oblivion so when Skyrim came out with its dull brownish greys I was super disappointed, still can’t really get into the game that much. Then a miracle happened and the Witcher 3: blood and wine came out. Toussaint was such a breath of fresh air, it reminded me that why I loved fantasy games was to feel like I was in a fantasy
That expansion was marvelous, nearly hit every note for me and I say that as someone with otherwise very mixed feelings for Witcher 3.
The ghosting of the sword, the overly wavy reflections in water, the sun burning your retinas. 15 frames of perfection every second!
You can actually get bonus ghosting if you switch to FSR Performance with frame gen!
The brown is bad, but to be fair to the right side, it’s the left one that has bad reflections and is blurry - it was released when bloom effects were new and it used them way too much.
Honestly they just need to put on a blueish green bloom filter and it’s back to being faithful
With all that brown it’s as if they accidentally took the Fallout 3 colour palette instead of Oblivion’s. Doing a replay now and (Pip) boy, I forgot how bland the Capital Wasteland looks before you get used to it.
