TES Construction Set

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 4:46 am

The Elder Scrolls on the PC, I believe, is a lot funner to enjoy than the versions for the consoles. Simply because of the Construction Set and the ability to create your own places, quests, and things to do. But, playing games on the PC anymore requires you to have top notch hardware.

But, surely, that idea cannot just be limited to PC only.

What are your thoughts on a console version of the Construction Set? Maybe a separate CD to buy (like Shivering Isles), or down-loadable content. That way, the game would sorta' stay fresh and inventive for the players. As well as give people the leeway of making challenges themselves.

Now, I've worked with the TES construction set and you can tell it's made specifically for a computer. There are just tons of click-able options that would be hard to mirror to a console. So, maybe instead of completely redesigning a console version, just make it compatible with the console. (IE: Your 360 would read from your computer like normal and take the Construction Set information and apply it to the game.)

Thoughts?

Sorry, but this will never happen. Ever.

The construction set was developed for the developers to make the game world. It's their tool, and they develop the game on the PC. It just happens that they also gave away their tool for free, but they have no reason to spend development costs to make a tool they will never use.
