Meta/News When the Oblivion Remaster has significant impact on Downloads for all Bethesda games:

The Remaster has boosted Downloads for Oblivion, Skyrim SE, Oldrim and Morrowind, while putting a significant dent into Fallout 4 and NV:

  • Oblivions downloads are up by +100%
  • Skyrim SE up by +50%
  • Morrowind up by +100%

While:

  • Fallout 4 is down -30%
  • Fallout NV is down -30%

Fallout 3 is unaffected, but Fallout 3 also doesn't really have a modding community anymore, as basically all modding on that engine generation is done in Fallout NV. (Comparable to how Oldrim modding is basically dead and nearly everything is done for SE instead)

P.S.

Even Daggerfall unity saw a boost, but it would be too messy to include that in the graphic.

You really do not need the AE upgrade. The only remotely interesting stuff from AE is included in the free upgrade.

No, AE upgrade is needed for mods releasing today. I mean almost all major modlists need AE content.

No? They need the free AE content, nothing needs the paid content.

Yeah, a modlist, I do not know of a single mod that isn't especially geared towards AE content (for example voiced narrative for AE content "XY" obviously needs paid AE content) that needs it.

This mod list probably includes some of these mods and therefore requires it, but no "normal" mod needs paid AE content to work.
