YouDoNotKnowMyName Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Hello everybody! A few months ago I bought a new PC, mainly for Skyrim, but I thought I'd give Fallout 4 a try.At first it was a bit weird, but after a few weeks I got used to "caps as a currency", the settlement building system, avoiding Preston Garvey and all of that stuff ...So far I am really enjoying the game. I love the "retro futuristic / post apocalyptic" setting.The settlement building really makes me feel like I am making a difference in the world (I know this sounds silly ...).The weapon customization / crafting is also a really great thing.The dialogue system is complete BS, but that's not really an issue, because there is a mod for that :laugh: (Extended Dialogue Interface, or something like that). Before I started playing FO4, Skyrim was the game for me, I played and modded it for a few years. So it took some time for my brain to "switch over" from Skyrim ... I don't know why, but even after a few months of playing FO4, the Commonwealth just doesn't feel "like home" to me ...So instead of complaining I decided to fix that problem.I always see games just as "a demo for what the engine can do". For me, it's not really about the game, it's about the tools, the CreationKit, in this case.The game is just like a "framework" for your own stories / mods / whatever.And once i found out how to get custom assets into the game (mostly static objects), I really felt like I could do anything that I could imagine.ANYTHINGFor personal use only, of course.So I decided to do just that.I can't really work on the same project for months, like some people can. I just do whatever i feel motivated to do.So I have lots of "unfinished projects" laying around. After some time I played a bit of Skyrim agian and I really started to miss things like the weaopn customization and the settlement building.So in it's infinite wisdom (not really) my mind came up with the idea to combine the two.Basically to p0rt Skyrim to FO4. (don't know if that word is allowed here)The two "settings" and "worlds" could be connected by some crazy time travel stuff, I don't know.Again, only for personal use, nothing like this will be published, ever!I know this would be a massive ammount of work, but as I am only working a part time job, I have tons of freetime :laugh: Because at the moment I always have to decide: "Do I want to do XYZ project in Skyrim or in Fallout 4?". And I don't like wasting effort and time ...And if I combined the two, that would be the ultimate "framework" for my custom story stuff .... I don't really know why I am writing this, I guess I am just too tired to do anything productive but not tired enough to go to sleep yet ...This will probably get deleted or something like that, I don't know ... [i think this was the first time, that I honestly wrote down what's on my mind whithout thinking too much about the consequences it may have ...] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
