All spells looks alike.

[QQ]

Is anyone talking about how all the spells look alike? Why fire spear looks like fireball, why every fire spell looks like fireball besides ones with aoe will add a aoe secondary effect. Lighting spells is the same, lighting not looking like lighting and every lighting spell looks the same. Lighting bolt looks like spark and spark looks like lighting ball. Does anyone even care?

Or is my game bugged.

If they look alike, maybe they should name them spell type A,B etc.

Yeah... i mean this is a real issue unlike ppl complaining about genders or w/e.

There is a reason spells are all the same.

1. It's how it was in OG Oblivion.

2. Spell-crafting.

You can create custom spells with Magnitude, Area and Duration modifiers. It's much easier for them to implement spell crafting if all the visuals are the same, because then the only thing that needs to be affected is the stats.

I'm surprised they didn't do that with the races

Because the game is 20 years old... This is not a remake its a remaster meaning only graphics upgraded. All the 20 year old stuff is still the same.

Nice catch, that is the logical continuation , if we want to win the war against racism.

A remaster is to remaster the graphics of vanilla game, this does not mean not improving on visuals like spells. Why improve on the graphics and other effects (and add tuns of voiced dialog) but not the spells being as dull as they were 20 years ago. You would have a point if i were asking for new spells and whole new effects (not visuals) and such. Also, the reason why it was limited with visuals 20 years ago was because they were already limited on what they could add to the limited amount of space to the disc. If they had to limit voiced dialog, clearly they limited other things.

Also to note, they change and updated the UI so why do that if its a remaster, right? Oh and they added sprint according to others which i dont recall in the OG version so why add that also?
