In this video, GamingBolt delves into the idea of revisiting The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion in the year 2025. They explore Bethesda's distinctive open world design, highlighting the game's well-crafted quests and captivating stories that set it apart from modern titles. The discussion touches on the game's player-driven emergent storytelling, Havoc physics, and Radiant AI, showcasing the unique experiences that Oblivion offers in comparison to contemporary open world games.
The team also addresses the visual aspects of Oblivion, pointing out its less visually striking setting compared to other titles in The Elder Scrolls series. They discuss the repetitive nature of dungeon design in the game, particularly focusing on the procedural generation used in Oblivion's dungeons and the potential impact of a remake on addressing these issues. Despite its flaws, Oblivion's world remains engaging, with nine major cities, dense NPC populations, and unique quests that contribute to its immersive atmosphere.
Furthermore, GamingBolt emphasizes the broken progression system in Oblivion, which allows players to create hilariously overpowered character builds, adding a layer of fun and experimentation to the gameplay. The potential remake of Oblivion is considered, with the team speculating on how improvements could enhance the overall experience and make it a standout open world title even in 2025. The video concludes with a nod to the excitement surrounding the unique design of Oblivion's world, hinting at the anticipation of sinking countless hours into the game once again.
