Thread: Nehrim - Total conversion mod for Oblivion

  1. #1

    Default Nehrim - Total conversion mod for Oblivion

    So I was looking for mods for Oblivion, and stumbled accross this:

    http://www.nehrim.de/indexEV.html

    Some German guys are making what is essentially a new game on the Oblivion engine.

    Points of interest:

    Different world - unrelated to ES

    Different skill system. You increase skills at trainers after you gain enough experience, similar to Gothic 3. Actually, the game/mod generally seems to resemble the Gothic series atmosphere, which is great, but the game would not be as unplayable because the engine is better optimised than Gothic 3's.

    Much greater focus on story. They promise more complex characterisation, a more interesting story, and less black and white choices.
    "Nehrim will have more roleplaying game elements than Oblivion. We did not develop an action game with RPG elements, in fact the opposite is the case."

    Oh, and a fully voiced English version (I understand the team has made total conversions for Morrowind in the past, but only in German).



    They're aiming for a 2009 release. Sounds interesting, no?

    Yeah, I found it on ModDB: http://www.moddb.com/mods/nehrim-at-fates-edge

    Some awesome trailers there. The different landscapes and architecture look stunning.

    Yea, they do. What I like, is that it sounds/looks like a combination of Morrowind and Gothic elements. In other words, sounds better than Oblivion

    I've been waiting for this mod for almost two years now and every year the release date seems to get bumped up by another year. It looks amazing and I'm hoping this is the year it finally gets released but I have a feeling we'll see Skyrim long before we see this mod.

    Nehrim has been released this month. Here are some trailers. The mod looks absolutely super. Unfortunately, it's only in German version, but there's English translation being prepared (estimated release date is Autumn 2010).

    Anyone played Nehrim yet?

    Oh yes, and the story was great. Sure, there might have been one or the other cliche but even still.. And the german speakers are of such a high quality.. *sigh* It was beautiful and i needed like 40 hours to beat the mod.

    Just downloaded and installed this. Very impressive so far. However, my problem is with language.. After 2 years of German in high school I barely get what people are saying. I think I will wait for the English version to be released soon. Looks stunning so far! Was absolutely blown away at the detailed wilderness when I saw it for the first time! I would recommend this to anyone who wants to play an Oblivion type game again.

    "The English version of Nehrim that will include translated texts and German voice acting will be released in July or August 2010." looks good, ill wait for the English version though since i dont understand a word of German

    I have been playing Nehrim for a while. It´s great, amazing work. The game is highly addictive.

    Try the escape from underground, at the beggining of the game. I played it for a couple of hours, making my way out of the starting dungeon. Save and wait for the english version.Trust me on this, unlike Oblivion, you don't die of boredom underground.

    Afaik, such save won't be compatible. English version will be a standalone mod, so you will have to download Nehrim again to play it in English.

    That's what I've read on SureAI forum.

    Also players who don`t speak german would be lost in the starting dungeon.
