After having more computer troubles to the point that I’m considering calling a priest to exorcise my bloody machine I thought it would be nice to sit down and try some Daggerfall, and wouldn’t you know it a friend of mine just made a huge mod for the game so why not talk about it here!?
It’s called ‘Cheb’s Necromancy’ and by the name I’d like you to take an educated guess as to what it adds to the game. What’s most interesting however is that Daggerfall is a unique case in that it and Arena before it are the only games in the Elder Scrolls main series that don’t have the Conjuration school of magic in them, meaning you can’t use magic to summon minions to help you. As such, not only does this mod add Necromantic minions such as skeletons or zombies into the game but it also adds a fully functional system to have minions summonable and follow you, a huge breakthrough in Daggerfall mods! I could certainly see this system expand to encompass more things like Daedra summoning and such so if you’re interested at all in Daggerfall and want to maybe try a full Necromancer playthrough (he even added a Necromancer starting class!) then check out the mod right here.
That’s all for now, and as always. It’s not just a game, It’s a Life.
