The day has come! If you are German, or a big enough fan of awesome ES mods to not care about language issues, SureAI let us know that you'll be able to finally download Nehrim tomorrow:

How many years has it been?

EDIT: 4 years I see.

And it will be so, so, so awesome.
I mean, have you seen the final trailer?! Those voice actors aren't *almost* professional, they are professional. The cutscenes, the locations, the story, everything looks so great and creative and inspired. I really can't wait for that mod, and I'll play it on my English Oblivion installation and I won't care about the mix of languages

Oh, I just saw that your blog both has the trailer and the information about the professional voice actors in it Well, whatever, NEHRIM YAY

Ohh finally, after all this time of waiting :celebration:

Looks like my 6 years of German are finally going to pay off!


Also, Cube Experimental was awesome.

I can't wait for an English version!

Cube experimental was AWESOME! So this will be great too.

My german is a bit rusty. But good enough to understand spoken and written language! Yay!

Wow! :shocking:
That looks insane! I'm playing it somehow, even if I am forced to wait on the English version! Damn. I often wish my Dad had had a chance to teach me German before he passed...

Any chance of getting English subtitles while waiting for the English verison? Often, I actually prefer subtitled Anime vs dubbed unless it's extremely well done...

Would any bad things happen to your game if you play the German version on an English Oblivion install? (I have played a couple mods where some object names changed to German, but that's not too annoying, I suppose...)

i'm not gona lie, i wish i still knew german and was part of this team. its a professional looking piece of work

Sweet! Now I just have to wait for an english version And to finish my mod, so I can allow myself time to actually play the game XD

It's really hard to see Oblivion underneath all of that. Hard to believe it's just a mod. I would guess at first glance it's another game.

Hopefully they're planning an English translation, maybe even with voice acting

Looks amazing but unfortunately I won't be able to run it on my computer. Apparently you need a computer that can very comfortably handle Open Cities as all the cities are open. That said, that is what I heard, it may or may not be the case.

Open cities shouldn't affect FPS at all really. I'm sure Arthmoor will also tell you this

Anywho, I wish I was German

Wow. I took a couple of German courses... but not enough to follow speech Don't matter, I'm downloading this anyway!! Dig out the German dictionary and hit pause A LOT :laugh:

This is great news. I have been keeping an eye on this project.
One of the mods that caught my breath and make me truly want to play it, since long time ago.

That trailer is amazing! Congrats to the team for the release. I'd be happy with just english subtitles, so I would know the story, and keep the original voices they sound awesome! Looking very forward to play.

:foodndrink:

Personally, I'd prefer to play this mod with English subtitles. I really enjoy watching foreign movies/TV (especially cartoons) with subtitles for the same reason: It's really, really interesting to see how different cultures match up characters to voices. On top of which, I like experiencing works of fine art (and yes, Nehrim falls into that category for me) in as close a form as possible to the original artist's vision, where that does not render them simply incomprehensible.

On a more practical level, the quality of the voice acting in German seems incredibly high. It's hard to imagine getting together a comparable voice team in English at any kind of short notice; never mind getting them all to good recording equipment.

Well I'm off to learn German, Ill see you guys/gals later!

Thumbs up if your doing the same!...o wait, wrong forum lol. seriously tho, I'm in awe playing through Adash right now, and this one looks like it will captivate me just as much. Yes, it does looks that good.

I agree. I live in Norway, and here only children movies are dubbed, The rest is shown with subtitles, and it works well once you get used to it. So I much prefer a version with English subtitles than one far away on the horizon with English voice. I'd much rather see people with voicing talent help the original English mods.

A total conversion? Completed?

THIS IS MADNESS!

Also, that is hot. German or not, I am so downloading it.

Hell with different languages...I am still going to DL it and add it to my NEVER ENDING game!

:clap: finally i get to play oblivion the way it should have been....completely devoid of khajit and argonians. im hoping its a more serious, less cartoony setting than oblivion was set in also.

Really? they are paid for that?

As far as I can see the blog only says they're professional. So I assume normally they get paid for this sort of thing, but it's possible that they did it for free for this modding project. I don't know.

It's a total conversion, not an expansion. With this there isn't going to be a Cyrodiil so you won't be able to add this to a normal game. It's like a new game.

its a new game..........WITHOUT khajit and argonians. :celebration: :woot: :clap:
