That's because the old game is still there, it's internally running the same engine under the hood but with Unreal Engine 5 used for its graphics & rendering.

On a scale from 1 to 10, how likely does this make it that old Oblivion mods will eventually become compatible with the remaster?

I read a Steam review that in the EULA it says there's anticheat and no modding allowed. Not sure how that will play out.

Edit: It looks like 'no modding' is a standard cover your own ass policy, for Bethesda. Modding is good to go, they don't really care.

This is almost definitely legal speak for "we ain't liable"

They don't care if you mod for game, but they're not opening themselves up to get sued if you download a mod and it borks your computer.
