That's nice....wonder how much the growing excitement for the Skyblivion project and the progress they've been making influenced Bethesda's decision to remaster Oblivion. My guess is that they caught wind a while back, saw people were interested, and decided that there's enough interest to churn out a "quick" remaster, try and beat Skyblivion to completion, and milk the cash cow dry.
It'll almost certainly be a muddy sepia, soulless, bugged to all fuck travesty. Hope the Skyblivion team is able/allowed to complete the project. I'd be super angry if they were sent a cease and desist....

I’ve heard rumblings it’s actually to test out the upcoming move from Gamebryo/Creation to Unreal.

Easier to task a smaller team to take the current state of the UE5 framework for TES games and recreate an existing game (i.e. concept and content complete) and get feedback early so TES6 can learn from it while they are still in development.

I literally can't tell if you're trying to be sarcastic because you've read any of a huge number of articles about the leaks, or completely ignorant of them and just happened to get everything completely opposite on accident....
