Can we get a HARDCORE MODE?

Can we get a HARDCORE MODE?

- No fast travel
- Can only save by sleeping in a bed
- Hunger, Thirst, Sleep, and Temperature gauge/meters. (Clothing effects body temp)
- Additional infections/fractures/harmful damage that needs to be mended/healed somewhere specific
- Harder enemies
- Achievement (and possibly item rewards at a vendor) for completing the game on Hardcore Mode

What else would you want to see in Hardcore Mode?

+1 for hunger/thirst/sleep/etc, it adds to immersion a lot.

Fast travel I would allow but only between major cities. You can't fast travel if you're not in a major city, and you can only fast travel to other cities. No fast travel at all is just a huge waste of time. Of course, fast travelling should increase your hunger/thirst/tiredness proportionally.

Saving only in beds... I get the idea but this only makes sense in a perfectly stable game Which this isn't. I've had a couple of crashes already. Frequent saves are needed to mitigate this and other bugs.

No fast travel increases the danger and immersion of the experience. A lot of random events happen along the roads or in the fields.

We don't need a stupid food mechanics in here too, just remove all the teleport via the map as it was on Morrowinds, put deadly creature and let us save on bed, but if you die your save will get eraased :D This is an hardcore mode, you don't need a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ food mechanics that a lot of player hate in every game. I play for fun, not for cook and eat dish -.- this isn't cooking mama

There are already mods that disable fast travel and make enemies more difficult as well as give you "perma death".

I'd imagine survival mods will be ported over from OG Oblivion soon enough as well. As many other popular Oblivion mods are being ported presently.

There are not deadly mobs? Even if you play on master? Or you benefit from some tanky cleric sort of build?

Aye, like Survival Mode in Fallout 4.
I love it, both you and enemies doing high damage, no fast travel, hunger, thirst, disease.
Maybe add addiction to Skooma.

I was really hoping for a hardcore mode like this. Fingers crossed they put it in later on down the road.

The only fast travel I'd be happy with would be between cities, but in the form of paying for a spot on a merchants cart or something. Also, for longer distances you might have to switch carts when reaching a city part way through your journey etc

Can't see myself playing this but I don't mind having it as an option, so long as they don't add any achievements surrounding a mode like this.

Personally, I feel like the level scaling of the game would make a theoretical hardcore mode waaay too challenging, even for those who love a good challenge.

[Solitude]

I'm pretty sure that soon there will be a mod on nexus. Hardcore mode wasn't in original game so I doubt that Bethesda will add hardcore mode officially.
Oh and if you want to disable fast travel, you can do it inside the game, just remove icons on the map, it's possible to do without mods.

i never fasttravel (a poain in the fighters guild xD)
and u can set when the game saves in the options

[★REM★]

i mean.
Literally:

- Don' use fast travel. Pretty sure you can control your impulses.
- Disable all auto save, and save only when you sleep manually.

For all the oher requests, this is a remaster, not a remake.

[Akameka]

a 'legendary' mode with increased lethality for both you and ennemies like in Skyrim or Fallout would be a good idea

You mean like Starfield, where you can increase the damage you deal and take and tune it to your exact preferences?

If that's what you're getting at, I'd be on board with it. Making the game super fast paced, where you can die just as easily as the enemy.
