Tamriel Rebuilt (opens in new tab) is an formidable mod venture that goals so as to add the total mainland of Morrowind to The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind, which was set on the massive island of Vvardenfell. It has been in growth for a whopping 20 years now. The final we heard from the crew was through an up to date growth roadmap in late 2021, however at present the builders launched a brand new replace (opens in new tab) that provides two main new areas to the sport world: Dominions of Mud, and Embers of Empire.
Dominions of Mud is centered on the Home Hlaalhu commerce port of Andothren, which sits southwest of Vvardenfell on the Inside Sea. The sparsely populated however harmful borderlands to the west of Andothren are contested by Hlaalu and their rival, Home Redoran. The area can be dwelling to the peaks and valleys of the Velothi Mountains, as soon as a stronghold of the long-lost Dwemer, whereas Clan Ishanuran continues its nomadic methods within the Armun Ashlands to the south, an space devastated by the eruption of Purple Mountain.
Embers of Empire is an entire overhaul of the western shore of the Telvanni peninsula, and contains the final remaining symbols of Imperial energy in what’s the most hostile area of Morrowind: The settlements of Firewatch and Helnim, and the outpost of Nivalis on the island of Althoa, one of many few surviving navy forts within the area.
Between them, Dominions of Mud and Embers of Empire add two new Ashlander clans and a joinable vampire clan known as the Orlukh, greater than 200 new or reworked quests, and supply a land mass triple the scale of the Morrowind growth Bloodmoon. There are additionally “many a whole bunch of bugfixes and consistency enhancements to our older content material, together with main enhancements to exteriors, interiors, and belongings, in addition to a number of new quests in our older areas.”
This map lays out the placement and scale of the brand new additions:
It is a actually spectacular addition and the brand new cities look improbable, however work on the Tamriel Rebuilt mod is way from over: The variety of quests within the mod is now roughly equal to that of Morrowind and its expansions, however the growth crew stated that solely about half of the mainland is at the moment playable. In keeping with the up to date roadmap (opens in new tab) launched in 2021, Dominions of Mud and Embers of Empire might be adopted by Thirr Valley, a Hlaalu-dominated area to the southeast of the Dominion of Mud, the Sundered Scar area east of Previous Ebonheart, after which the desert highland space of Shipal-Shin simply south of Thirr Valley.
So sure, all very formidable, however after 20 years of labor—and lots to indicate for it—I do not doubt that it’ll occur. The Tamriel Rebuilt mod, set up directions, and different supporting information can all be had at tamriel-rebuilt.org (opens in new tab).
