On the one hand I think an Oblivion remake is doomed to fail. So much of the charm and character of the original comes down to the jank. A janky engine with janky gameplay and worse graphics, but also one of the best games I've ever played.

On the other hand, I'm really looking forward to playing some of this. Will probably try to pirate this one, though.

There's also the fact that compared to Morrowind or Skyrim Oblivion's setting is kinda mid at best and very generic fantasy with only some of that elder scrolls weirdness in the fringes

When it came out, its genericness was kind of refreshing

I would just wait a few months for Skyblivion to come out.
