That's actors for ya, gotta wonder if they feel compelled to thank the Academy when they get their Tesco gift cards. Finally, another little tidbit that came up in the aforementioned discussion with the Fo3 Remake lead is that aside from developer resources, these projects might cost some money as well, specfically in the voice acting department. So, while the sharing of resources between TC projects is to their benefit, they're also quite likely suffering some level of cannibalisation. While the overall modding community is much larger, the qualified talent pool available to these TC mods at any given time is going to be far smaller and probably shared across different Bethesda titles. The takeaway here is that having, for the sake of argument, six major Fo4 projects active, each of which could demand the contributions of, say, a hundred developers by its theoretical release, that doesn't mean that there's 600 developers actively engaged across said projects. In fact, the Fo3 Remake's lead was talking in 2019 about how he was still sometimes pulling active duty on the Gold Coast for Beyond Skyrim. Now, one of the things that came up repeatedly in those Kinggath podcasts is that the current major Fo4 mod projects occasionally share both assets and developers. So, at any given time, you've got a relatively small core team with a varying number of temporary "staff" coming and going throughout a project's lifespan. If you look at Enderal's Wikipedia entry, it states that the project had 14 developers, but a quick skim of their credits suggest 100-150 contributors, sans voice actors. So why don't we have a quick look at what's being worked on and take a Codex Community Consensus Poll on what won't turn out to be vapourware will release before Star Citizen?īefore I start laying on the TLDR, a little context on how these mega mods are getting developed, at least as much as I've been able to glean from listening to a few podcasts by Kinggath (Sim Settlements lead) with some of these TC developers. So what about Fallout 4? There's a few different Total Conversion mods in the works, isn't it about time some of those chickens came home to roost? After all, Enderal took five years to make and Fallout 4's been out since 2015 now, and apparently the Fo4 CK is an improvement over the Skyrim era toolset. The latter had many other things, like Project Aho, Summerset Isle, Beyond Reach etc., but if we're looking for "new" campaigns with the scope and polish of official content, I'd say those two are the flagships.
Oblivion had Nehrim, Skyrim had Enderal and Beyond Skyrim - Bruma. "All mods are vapourware until proven playable."
