Scree3000 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Let me start off by saying I have no modding experience at all. I did make a few mods for myself for oblivion back in the day, but that doesn't count. A complete beginner. And a bit of prologue before we get into the actual question at hand. Shadow of Mordor recently released the nemesis update and so I spent the last 40 or so hours playing that game, grinding through the nemesis system and leveling up the uruks and toying with the game mechanics to get my desired Uruks Looks and skills to import into Shadow of War. But that got me thinking; What if something like the nemesis system was brought into Skyrim? Making a Nemesis like system into a framework mod for skyrim(Like Campfire), to where you can add more optional add ons later on and people can make their own stuff to integrate into it. Give certain enemies(like bandits for easiest example) a system of retreat on near death or to surrender when they get knocked down(Which would present a dialogue, where you can kill, spare, and or mug), and to retreat after they get back up to their feet if you were busy killing off his buddies while he was down or just never bothered to trigger the dialogue. If the person survived, they would be given an actual name besides "Bandit", "Forsworn" , "Necromancer", etc, from a list of names to generate from. And then later on at some point, the bandit that got away would be able to track you down and try to kill you. (Or perhaps help you during the fight if say, you chose to spare him without taking anything. A percent chance for the bandit to be friendly on that occasion and possibly recruit as a follower) Now for the more technical questions I have. Would something like this even be viable to create in Skyrim? If so, where would I begin with such a thing? If any modders have some helpful advice to share on how I would start creating a mod like this, I would appreciate it. Edit: Not sure if this is in the correct forum, hope it is. Edit 2: Not sure how it double-posted. Sorry for that. Unsure how to delete the other topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
