I hope they have more than four voice actors this time... or at least get four voice actors who can do different ******* voices!!!

And don't spend all of the audio budget on Stewart and Bean.

Judging by the voice in that trailer they'll be using...Max Von Sydow.... legend

Oblivion bored me even whjen I moded it with over 20gb of mods. FO3 only required 1 mod to make it interesting for me and thats because it made the game harder so it was a challenge.

I doubt they are going to use the same engine. It looks very very dated now.

However I can imagine Oblivion using the same engine as the Stone Giant benchmark...

Even Metro 2033 engine

I wonder who says this game is boring but likes fallout3.

Me

Well lets hope they listen to the criticism aimed at oblivion. It wasnt bad just a bit dull and yes fallout 3 was more exciting

LeJosh · 12 Dec 2010 at 11:59

Because some people do genuinely prefer guns over swords and sorcery.

Oblivion and fallout are nothing a like in that respect, they're open ended and made by the same folks but the mechanics are different due to the nature of the weapons.

They are using the Gamebryo just in case anyone was wondering

I'm pretty confident it will still be Gamebryo. Just because it's the same engine doesn't mean there can't be significant changes, improvements and optimisations. Morrowind was also a Gamebryo game and look at the difference between that and Oblivion made between 2002-2006.

Here's the trailer for those who haven't seen it:

According to wikipedia, the Gamebryo engine supports DX11:

Is this the engine used in FO3 and FO:NV also?

G-MAN2004 · 12 Dec 2010 at 12:50

I'm still waiting for the game that beats Morrowind. That was perfect.

Yes I think so.

But it will be updated for the new Elder Scrolls.

Theres no way that at the end of 2011 they would release a game based on the same engine as Oblivion!
