Elder Scrolls fans heartbroken by quiet cancellation

Personally, I’ve enjoyedStarfieldsince launch but I understand that many didn’t, instead feeling that it was a tad too undercooked.

Well, that’s all starting to change.

Bethesdahas rolled out a series of updates forStarfield, adding highly requested features including bounty hunting quests, customisable ship interiors, and city maps.

The addition of drivable vehicles is on the way, as is the launch of theShattered Spacestory expansion which will dive into the mysterious House Va’ruun.

It’s one of several story expansions planned for the game.

Following the launch of the Creation Kit, we’ve also seen many incredible fan-made projects surface.

One set of modders is in the midst of creating aStar Wars inspired total conversion mod.

A similar project was in the works but centred aroundThe Elder Scrollsbut what sounded too good to be true has alas proved to be just that.

This would’ve included the respective quests and items from those games too.

When you consider how long it’s taken Bethesda, an experienced studio, to createThe Elder Scrolls VI- which remains deep in development - you do have to wonder how a group of fan modders might go about tackling a project like this.

Well, they won’t be.

After attempting to recruit volunteers, the modders have instead pulled the plug on the project.

In aninterviewwith VG247, New-Star-340 said, “After sharing the initial concept with the community, it became clear that the support we were hoping for just wasn’t there. Many fans voiced concerns and indicated that they were not interested in seeing this project come to fruition.”

I’m not sure the lack of interest part is strictly true. I think we’d all love to traverse a full Tamriel. It’s simply that the project didn’t seem all that plausible.

Given how new Creation Kit still is though, I have no doubt that we’ll see other conversion mods made on a more manageable scale come to fruition.
