Main Quest Idea

[Dice42]

I've put this here because it's not a request, rather I want to see if this idea interests people, maybe enough for people to start making it. If they did I would want to contribute, though I am not a modder, so if I was going to start this would certainly not be the way to.

 

Anyway the idea.

Usually in games like this, you are the hero and you have followers or parties that follow you. Recently I've been playing as a new character using Live Another Life and have completely avoided anything to do with the Dragonborn (as much as possible anyway). So I got to wondering, if you could play as a different character and someone else was the Dovahkiin.

 

I already know, this would be a massive overhaul, but it could be a very interesting way to approach the game. You'd have to have a Dovahkiin NPC and contrive a way for you the player to be dragged into the story. Maybe you'd be a Stormcloak imprisoned with Ulfric and the Dovahkiin, or maybe you're a Whiterun guard at the Tower where the dovahkiin learns his/her power.

 

Like I said it would be massive, all main quests would have to be overhauled with the Dovahkiin NPC leading the way. They'd have to be rewritten, but in such a way to use the actors voices that already exist. (this is where I think I could get involved, I'm not a modder, but I am a writer). They'd be animated (for example, you'd watch as the Dovahkiin met the grey beards).

 

 

Any thoughts, like I said this isnt a request, rather a discussion on feasibility/interest. If something came out of it then great, but I am genuinely interested in hypothetical discussion too
