    Tbh, at this point I wouldn’t mind if it didn’t. The Skyblivion and Skywind projects are really close to finished, and the Beyond Skyrim team is still making progress.

    Plus, there’s OpenMW always getting more and more development. I hope in a few years it ends up good enough that people can port (and play) Skyrim in it, but that’s probably stupudly far out.

      And don’t forget about Wayward Realms, the indie spiritual successor to Daggerfall. If they can successfully pull off their ambitious vision, it could be one of the greatest RPGs of all time.

        Looking it up, I got the inverse of the usual roller coaster of excitement. Saw a few seconds of their trailer on Steam that was obviously made in Unreal Engine (which is bad for multiple reasons), then checked the Wikipedia to find that they’re working to move to their own engine

          Yeah, development has been rough. But I’m still cautiously optimistic. They expect to release early access later this year, so we’ll see.
