As I recently started helping out with Enderal's PR (especially on ModDB) I thought about making a thread in this forum, as there is undoubtly a fanbase here but no place where to discuss and ask questions about it.
I think most of you know already Enderal, but nevertheless let's start with some general information:
Instead of making this similar to a compilation of available information (turning this into an unreadablemesswall of text) I'd rather have you asking me questions about it which I will try to answer if I can/am allowed to ;-).
As posting it just like this is boring I'll talk about 2 things many people not only in this forum but everywhere are curious about:
#1 The release date: As always with non-commercial projects it is hard to give an ETA - currently the development is in its last phase and the translation/localization is in full swing. The end of the 1st quarter of 2016 is not impossible, though an exact release day or even month remains to be seen and won't be announced until the SureAI team is sure of that date.
#2 The story of Enderal: Instead of posting a long-winded text about it, I let some videos speak for me :
1. Enderal's 2014 Trailer - it shows you the superficial side of Enderal's story, the thing you would see as a summary in a news site or something similar.
2. The "Ashes" story teaser of 2013 - this one dives deeper into the story and sets its tone.
3. Not a video but a book, called "The Butcher of Ark" - this book is written by Nicolas Lietzau/latiro, who is also responsible for Enderal's story writing and it further shows the tone of Enderal's story and world.
The book will have nine parts ingame, 8 of which were published till now:
Book I
Book II
Book III
I think most of you know already Enderal, but nevertheless let's start with some general information:
Enderal is an upcoming Total Conversion (TC) for The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim in development by the team of SureAI, the same team which did TCs and mods for other Bethesda games, such as Nehrim: At Fate's Edge for Oblivion or Arktwend: The Forgotten Realm and Myar Aranath: Relic of Kallidar for Morrowind.
The devs of SureAI once said that they aim for Enderal to be a story for adults - often dirty and harsh, yet nice and forgiving at other times. Something like pornobabes or the muscle-brained warrior won't exist in it.
A TC is basically a new game based on the engine of another game; in Enderal's case the Skyrim/Creation engine was used to make a new RPG with its own land, story, NPCs, quests and some new gameplay elements.
