Elder Scrolls Fan Project using Warcraft 3 Engine

  • Hello

     

    I'm working on an ambitious project, I like real time strategy games (rts), like Ages of Empires, Blizzard has created one of the best real time strategy games of all times with Starcraft a Sci-fi rts, Warcraft a medieval fantasy rts with some roleplaying aspects (you got heroes level up), humans and orcs fight for territory, the universe is similar to Elder Scrolls just in the surface (do not misunderstand me please), as I said, humans, dwarves, orcs, elves (different kinds of them), undead, demons, beasts, etc. I must make something clear I think World of Warcraft is terrible Blizzard just lost its way on that and is really sad, but whatever this blog post is not to talk about how Blizzard destroy games (as Diablo too :/!!) selling their dignity (and lore) to the market as if was a cheap h**cker... alright I hope I was clear about my point.


    So one think I consider about Blizzard is Warcraft rts games if you don not know there is a huge community of modders ("low end pc people mostly or just rts Warcraft fans") similar to Elder scrolls modders communities, just this about Warcraft is more "underground", the World Editor of the game gives a ton of possibilities, also with different tools you can create custom models, textures, sounds, etc., same as with TES games, but this game is about real time strategy with some roleplay aspects, so you can have even some cinematics add some dialogues, have some main protagonists or heroes.

    I think Warcraft 3 engine is perfect to tell a story, my TES Fan story, The Merchant series, I will create a full playable campaign, I already started with the development of units, the main protagonist have his skills and there is also another important character (a female dremora).


    Also I will create videos about it and make a full story through them, some videos will be for share about the game content such as units, skills, features, etc., there will be another serie of videos what will be about tell the story of The Merchant Series, those videos I will develop using video tool editing same way as I create fan art of screenshots, but this will be about videos so will be more interesting will have audio, text, etc.

    Sounds interesting. I want to see where where this goes. Warcraft 3 is one of my favorite strategy games of all time.


    Will you be using the vanilla game or Frozen Throne as a base?

        That's OK. Take all the time you need. Treat it like you're writing a story and don't rush it. It would be a shame to look forward to this mod just for it to be shit.
