I'm going to start him once I get my new computer and all the mods I have lined up for him ready to go. That way, I can play around with cranking my settings to the max and really pushing things visually. Shipping and set up (software/mod wise) should take about 2-3 weeks--maybe a month.
I'd really like to shoot this story with an ENB installed, and I'm trying to decide if I want to go with a really drastic environmental change. (ie Project Reality Winter Edition and go with a whole Game of Thronesish thing or Skyrim Flora Overhaul Summer Edition and go with a medieval Europe thing.)
Here's an example of each:
If I do go for a change, I'm leaning toward the winter edition. I think that'll be more interesting with Frostfall. It's easy to uninstall if I don't like it. :)
In addition, I'm still deciding at what level I want to start his story. Do I want to go with a Gram Myth-Maker kind of thing and start him at the top only to break him down? Or do I want to go with something like making him a shipwreck victim and building him from the bottom up?
I rather like the idea of starting him at about level 10-20. It's hard for me to imagine him becoming suddenly incompetent, especially if he was already in the service of a lord and operating as a knight. I think the shipwreck will be where I do my actual start, but I'll table those screenshots for later exposure during the story. I don't want to do a prologue this time. We're jumping right into the middle of things!
I know where most of this story will take place, and I even know the opening scene as well as some of our key characters. At this time, I have roughly in mind what's going to happen to him as well as a few key quests, but how we actually get from point A to point Z is still a bit of a mystery.
And on top of all that, I've entertained thoughts of writing this as an epic poem or in a very different, perhaps episodic, style. Seems I have a couple of weeks to really decide. What do you think?
