Well played, Todd: You can see Skyrim, or at least its tallest mountain, from the edge of Oblivion Remastered

My hat's off to Todd Howard and the rest of the Elder Scrolls team at 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Bethesda Game Studios, as they've found yet anoth💧er way to release Skyrim... kind of.

The porting and remastering and re-releasing of Skyrim has been memed to death at this point, and so when I started seeing images on social media of the game's majestic Throat of the World summit in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Oblivion Remastered – something that wasn't in the original 2006 R♛PG – I had only one thing to say: Well played, Todd. You did it again, you absolute mad lad.

Yes, it appears to be true; according to numerous posts all over Reddit and Twitter, you can see Tamriel's tallest mo⛄untain in Oblivion Remastered, but you have to do some serious hiking. To get this vantage point, it appears you need to travel all the way to the very northernmost point of Cyrodiil, and in the far distance you can make out what definitely looks like the Throat of the World.

Joking aside, this is a really neat little piece of continuity bridging Cyrodiil and Skyrim, and really makes Tamriel feel like one giant interconnected world. Although, as an Elder Scrolls Online player, I feel like it's my self-righteous duty to point out that you can explore both Cyrodiil and ꦛSkyrim🌌, and lots more of Tamriel, all in one big game.

The big mountain isn't the only thing Oblivion Remastered borrowed from The Elder Scrolls 5. As it turns out, there's a spell from Skyrim in Oblivion Remastered that's 🌺basically "a magical trail♒ of breadcrumbs" pointing you toward quests and objectives.

Oblivion Remastered has been in the works for 4 years, and despite big changes Bethesda says it's definitely not a remake: "We never wanted to remake it"

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate cop🍌y editor whil🙈e freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
