If you start a new game, you are given a choice to start in the world of your choosing. If you start in Skyrim, after the introduction (i.e. the Unbound quest), you receive a "Travel to Ethas" spell that is active while in Skyrim. If you use this spell, you will begin Ethas at it's introductory quest. After you finish the introduction of Ethas, you will receive a "travel to Skyrim" spell that is active while in Ethas.

 

If you travel to Skyrim while in Ethas, you return to where you last left Skyrim. If you were outside of Bleak Falls Barrow, you'd be whisked back to that spot. The same holds true to when you travel back to Ethas. The spells have the same conditions as Fast Travel - if you are currently in combat, falling, in an interior, or fast travel has been disabled by a script, then you cannot travel back and forth. This helps alleviate any problems that may come up, like dying as soon as you travel back to one of the worlds or screwing up a scene.

 

The same is true if you start a new game in Ethas, with a one differences. You go through the character creation process in Ethas rather than Skyrim, so when exiting the cart after traveling to Skyrim for the first time, it will skip the character creation menu.

will you lose your items when you switch to skyrim? because I'd rather not get a whole bunch of nice items to lose them

 

No, you will retain your items when moving back and forth. We debated having your Ethas and Skyrim items remain separate, but like you said, nobody wants to find a great weapon or armor set, only to find that it can't be used in the other world. ;)

Hi, I read your article regarding companions on moddb. I like what you guys are doing them. =)

 

Question. Will you be able to bring more than one companion at a time unlike vanilla Skyrim?

 

And can I use AFT (amazing follower tweaks) in Ethas and bring companions from Skyrim to Ethas?

Two companions at a time, which ends up creating some really cool dialogue between the two you choose. :)

 

As far as vanilla companions, stay tuned. We haven't yet designed a system to handle that. If I had a guess, I'm going to say no. But that could change, who knows.

Sounds awesome!

I see. Well, I hope it will be possible. =)
