Just avoiding a release date is no serious solution.

I guess it has something to do with the absence of free economy. We the people all over the world live in socialism. Or money socialsm like I call it.
Normally it should be really no problem to live from just working on skywind or similar projects. Under such circumastances it would also be no problem to announce an approximate release date.
So you are right with your arguments. We should really think about how to end these citizen-robbing state and banking systems. Edited August 14, 2020 by Feuerkl1nge

I'm still looking forward to this. Now more than ever. I wish I had the skill to contribute on some way other than just going "WOW!! Good job."

There are plenty of roles that don't require you to already be Van Gogh or [insert famous level designer here], and with our collaboration with the Arcane University (a venture founded by Beyond Skyrim), you can learn the skills you need, and maybe even set yourself on a new career path.

I'm too fricken slow to join the Minutemen Skywind team. Well, um, maybe not. I will check out the Arcane University and maybe I can learn something to be of help.

Just awesome , thought I was back in Vvardenfell but the Cliffracer did not attack so maybe not , sadly I also lack the skills for this kind of work , got 30 years as a plumber at this point so kinda set career wise and I doubt my old gruff voice would be of much use , I hope to see this come out , been on ES since Daggerfall and you guys are doing it proud :)

Yeah you're never to old to play games :D

I'd like to help but I don't have much skill beyond some alright textures that aren't good enough quality for something this grand sadly.

Even without loud nostalgic music it's still more exciting than TESVI or even Cybpk2077 for me TBH. You can only find the souls in indies/mods among modern games. True, those will definitely be much more advanced in terms of gameplay techs, but the project is also another level to the original TESIII(I knew what TESV engine can do), to which I would dream returning this way one day. Between novelty and dignity, I guess myself tend to prefer the latter.

 

Shame that I gave up TESV entirely long ago, near the very end, due to technical and personal issues, so that I didn't really have the chance to fully enjoy(?) the Dragonborn DLC back when I was still playing the game. I just landed on Solstheim for few hours and that's it, before chasing back the Skyrim main plot then quit halfway. Later I tried ESO thrice from beta as well and also actually visited the Morrowind expansion. However after a short period (a couple months or so) the ESO updater/downloader seemed to hate my limited spaces of SSDs, once again, I abandoned my journey. And the original Morrowind itself? I still played it from time to time around 2012, but during a major upgrade of my system I lost most of my old files tragically, along with newer rigs I had never installed it since then for lack of motivation.

 

Sure there are always Morrowind remakes, but Skywind has never disappointed to bring promising life into the classic we all loved. That's why this personal hype couldn't even diminish or fade away over the years. Ah yes, nothing against commercial franchises here but for me labors of love will be always more appealing than septims. Again, sorry for my good-ol'-day rumblings here and there. Keep up the good work. :thumbsup:

It's happening. What to revisit? I've never visited yet. I'm a recent immigrant to Tamriel. I look forward to seeing it all. Dungeons that i can't navigate half blind because they're all identical but for the monsters within, towering spires and the peak of the mountain, all is new.
