Oblivion is a very funny game but the Skyblivion remake may not be, and you can blame the quality of Skyrim's 'streamlined' engine for that

It might not be immediately apparent, what with its pompous music and brutal murder of Patrick Stewart, but The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion is a very funny game. For some players, like PC Gamer's Joshua Wolens, it's a big part of the attraction, and the recent official remaster kept a lot of Oblivion's jank intact.

However, much of that comedic potential may be lost in Skyblivion, the upcoming fan-made remake of Oblivion in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, not because the developers are intentionally doing away with it...
