… now do it with Morrowind. I dare you. I double dare you!
Morrowind would be a whole different beast to remaster. Not saying I wouldn't enjoy some better graphics and tweaked systems, but it would be a hard sell to most gamers if they only did that.
-no voice acting -outdated gameplay systems -Game map that wasn't designed with unlimited draw distance, fast travel, or even unlimited running in mind.
Honestly at this point it would be better served by a full remake.
Yes, that's why you'd make it a remaster; to fix all of those things.
Modern mods fix almost all of those issues.
The game can easily be 'remastered'.
Morrowind has plenty of fast travel. In fact, it has better fast-travel than later Elder Scrolls games because it's actually integrated into the gameplay.
Agreed. Super convenient fast travel takes something away from the game. It turns an adventure into a handful of loading screens, which is egregious in Starfield because "travel through space" boiled down to "here's 4 more loading screens every single time you want to do anything."
skyrim has carriages and boats though
Sky walking was so much fun. Not always faster, but fun
It was also neat that the game was designed for it (Telvanni towers, secrets in high places, etc.).
There is the Skywind project, but I'm not sure if any progress has been made in the last year

Can we just have 6 instead?
No. Oblivion remastered. Then Skyrim Special Oblivion Remastered Anniversary Edition. Then Starfield Remastered.
Then Oblivion Remastered 2 since the current one will be outdated by that time.
