People Are Still Playing Skyrim, and That's Reason EnoughĮven if some players are done with these games, Skyrim especially, there are always going to be plenty of people wandering through the previous Elder Scrolls installment's huge maps. New weather effects could severely change the experience, especially if the weather turned particularly nasty, forcing players to adapt their style of play to the elements around them. Ray-tracing alone makes an incredible difference in older games, as would improving upon the somewhat lackluster draw-distance.
The difference between the original Skyrim and the Skyrim: Special Edition was already remarkable imagining everything the developer accomplished with the power of the new consoles in their corner is really interesting. The remaster could even go a little further. That's without mentioning the near-immediate loading times on PS5 and Xbox Series X, making entering and exiting buildings almost seamless. At the very least, if the graphics were updated to 4K and frame rates increased to 60fps, that would go a long way in making each game feel a little more modern.
Even without a full remake, there would be a ton of value in simply remastering them.
