City of Scum

I'm around still... I should have explained the following a long time ago, and I apologize for not doing that. I'll try to explain the situation regarding this mod: I'm a level designer by choice, and I decided months ago that I really don't like doing anything else when it comes to modding (except in very limited amounts). And what's the point of modding if I don't enjoy myself, right? However, that leaves a huge part of the mod (~60-70%) with nobody to work on it, since my partner dropped out months ago. After that happened, I admit I kind of lost interest in working on the mod, and then a month or so ago, with Skyrim in general. My interest in all Elder Scrolls games comes and goes, and I feel that soon I will be ready to boot up Skyrim (and the CK) yet again. I guess I should remove the banner from my signature... But to do that would be to admit this project truly is abandoned. I'm not ready to say that, even though it has been months since I truly worked on it for any amount of time.

 

So, what this project needs, if it is its fate to be finished, is people who specialize in scripts & quests. I myself would continue doing level design for the project if it were resurrected. I hope this happens, because I am still interested in the project!

We understand, Xion. You're totally right. If you don't like it or feel like doing it, don't. Also, I understand how you feel about Skyrim... Or The Elder Scrolls in general. It's same with me... For a month, it'll be the funnest thing ever, then simply get boring! This happens waaay too much and I blame the lack of quest lines in the game. Yes, you heard me right, there should be even more than there is... But doesn't matter now, whether City of Scum ever gets finished or not, thank you Xion, for doing at least 30-40% of this mod and taking up the challenge!

One of the possibilities for me is releasing the island in its current state to the nexus for anyone to play and do whatever they want with it. I think that would give it the greatest chance of being picked up again by modders. I haven't decided for sure yet though.

You already have Riften for that..

Not all in Riften are evil scum. We need real Caribbean cities. Where the guards were scared to go. So I can kill someone and then a big fight happens OR everyone stands and cheers! Not where someone comes and tells me by the order of the Jarl stop right there.

The Greybeard the Pirate thing sounds great . A Greybeard Who eschewed the others view on the Elder Scrolls and set out to find as many as He can , reading Them with His enchanted eyepatch and going crazier by the day. With His own island He formed and fog He conjured with His Thu'um ,Everyone on the island is in service to Him ,either in the mines or scouting the Seas for booty , I see the pirates fighting each other just to get off the island and escape the constant gloom created by the fog for awhile . I can see a harbor full of ships captured by Greybeard's giant dragon shaped ship ,only It and the scout ship seem seaworthy.

Will this be part of the main skyrim worldspace (like volkihar castle)? As it would be great to travel to it with a sailable ships mod or even an airship (eg. the Dev Aveza)!

(just discovering this)

 

And I would imagine it be like "take a boat to arrive there" like the castle or Solsthiem, just not with the fancy intro. And i can really see this mod going somewhere, possibly quests that turn your character into a criminal/crime lord. Or maybe your "batmanning" the place undercover. it would be really cool to have a shady place, with people in dark alleyways daggers ready to take your belongings. and most vendors of the town will accept stolen goods, maybe there could be some new items? maybe take some inspiration from the popular thieves arsenal mod from Oblivion. The idea has a lot of potential for cool stuff, especially if you go all out and voice it and add quests and items.
