Reddit’s user ‘only_eats_plankton’ shared a gorgeous image, that immediately reminded us of Skyrim. To put it simply – this is how the next ‘The Elder Scrolls’ game should look like. Bethesda should use this image as a reference, and we are pretty sure that next-gen systems will be able to come close to it. The biggest obstacles developers might have with it is with the in-game TOD, the whole lighting system, the extended LOD and the shadowing system. Apart from these nitpicks though, we can’t see why next-generation systems could not provide a similar IQ. Of course, we are not speaking about identical or better visuals. After all, nothing can top real-life. But given the rumored specs of next-gen platforms, we believe that we might be playing the next Elder Scrolls game with visuals like that. Well… hopefully. Anyway, enjoy the image after the jump! Continue reading This is how the next-generation version of ‘The Elder Scrolls’ should look like→
Boris Vorontsov, creator of ENBSeries, has been working on a new effect for Skyrim called ‘Sky Lighting.’ Sky Lighting is basically a fake ambient occlusion effect that is introducied to Skyrim but according to the modder, the default Skyrim ambient colors are set wrong and look awful with this new effect “sky lighting” (fake ambient occlusion) of ENBSeries. That’s why Boris released a new mod for those using his ENBSeries mod of Skyrim – called Weather of ENBSeries – that can be downloaded from here. In addition, Boris released two screenshots to show off this new, graphical effect, that can be viewed below. Enjoy!

The modder has tried to merge both screenarchery and gameplay principles, simultaneously – making use of light SSAO and SSIL, SMAA, Depth of View, detailed shadows, enhanced lighting and overall graphical improvements to add more life to the game.
