Anyone else heard of Nirn Uncharted? It's basically Beyond Skyrim but they plan on joining BS and are doing every other region of Nirn that we know of, excluding Lyg, Akavir, Ynslea, and the islands below where Yokuda used to be.

As far as I know they're doing Thras, Cathnoquey, Esroniet, Pyandonea, The Systres and Pankor, Valenwood, and even the Summerset Isles. Since the Altmer are my favorite race, I'm mostly focused on Alinor: The Eternal Paradise.

Alinor is supposed to be extremely alien, bizarre, and unusual compared to the rest of Tamriel, right? Zenimax fucked it up by making it look just beautiful and high Breton-ish, without any of the magical or otherworldly atmosphere. The mod's already got tons of concept art which makes Zenimax's Summerset DLC look boring IMO.

That project isn't to get any farther than concept art. Skyblivion and Skywind have been in the making since Skyrim came out a decade ago, and 90 percent of the work done for those mods were already done for them by Bethesda. All that's left are the models and scripting.

Beyond Skyrim's only progress in over a decade has just been the small region of Bruma. If they at least had released what they had produced so far as betas than it might maintain interest. But at this rate, I can only see maybe Cyrodiil materializing. Their other regions might never see the light or will be released in an incomplete state within the next 5 years or so. They even cancelled their original Elsweyr and Valenwood projects because it proved too challenging with their small numbers. Honestly BS followers will be lucky if they ever even see Cyrodiil released.

I recently tried out Skyrim SE. And I've been having a problem of the game crashing if I play for more than about an hour.

What system are you on?
I had that issue on the $1200 gaming PC I had a few years ago. $1200 built with top of the line parts at the time and it fucking crashed playing Skyrim SE. My PS4 has only had Skyrim crash once and that was my fuckup with mod ordering.

A similar system to that. No mods. I've been wondering if its a memory leak or something since it crashes after entering through a door.

There's no good blueprints for Cyrodil that exist online.

You need someonething to build off from if you want a fully accurate model of the city.
 
Bruma's ok.

It wasn't 100% done, but it felt alright, pretty good for a mod.

The voice acting obviously varied, but the quests were alright (or at least has the same sort of varying mediocrity most Bethesda quests have). The Captain Burd museum was pretty funny.
 
Morrowind was a brilliant game with amazing world building and lore but all the handholding in future ES games and other titles makes it near impossible for me to get into it again.

Oblivion was one I was initially critical of (potato faces and horrendous voice acting especially) but now they make the game both charming and hilarious I feel. Its probably my favourite of the 3 now (not including Arena and Daggerfall which I never played). And Shivering Isles is what all DLC's should aspire to be like.

Skyrim was one of those games which never lived up to the hype. It is what it is but the RPG elements feel so dumbed down and the guilds don't hold a candle to Oblivions. Commercially it did very well because it appealed to normies better than the prior two.

In terms of what comes next, i'm not optimistic or hyped in the slightest. Hope i'm proven wrong.

Morrowind was and still is amazing. As for Oblivion and Skyrim, mods are gods.
 
Having never played morrowind, for some strange reason, I just picked up the goty edition for Xbox 360. Played oblivion and Skyrim thoroughly, so I’m familiar with the type of game.
From the little I’ve read, leveling up in this game is different/wonky. Anything I find explaining it ends up being a giant wall of text. Can someone give me a TLDR of the best way to level? Planning on doing a Breton mage.

Honestly don't worry about it too much. You choose major and minor skills and they progress at enhanced rates and get bonuses.

I say don't worry about it because Morrowind is the easiest game to break stat wise. You'll be a god in no time.

TL DR (as you can get TBR) play either Dunmer or Altmer, humans just can't compete in morrowind, I would have acrobatics and Athletics as minor skills, Intelligence and Personality as chosen attributes, and Destruction and Restoration as major skills, obviously alchemy and enchanting will return their dividends in gold, Mysticism and Alteration are important for transit. join the mages guild and house hlaalu, the mages guild will give cheap access to the tools you need, Hlaalu pays out the ass for beginner missions. you can figure it out from there

Edit (at some point usually when you get your first decently enchanted gear you are over the hill difficulty wise)

Look up dragoon build. Leap-frogging around the map is fun as hell.
