I've often thought how much work it would take to fully voice every single NPC in a game as large as Skyrim. Obviously, it's something that is fairly out of the realm of possibility for most developers, even the mighty Bethesda. But a group of intrepid modders have gone ahead and done their best to fill in the gaps. As spotted by Kotaku, here's the Skyrim Interesting NPCs mod.The mod promises quite a bit:
Yes, that means that whoever you've got following you around will be dropping lines about wherever you happen to be hanging out at any particular moment. There have also been a slew of new bard songs added, if that's your particular cup of tea. I suppose even the most adventurous of, uh, adventurers need to sit down and listen to some music over a pint of mead every so often.
- More than 90 Voiced NPCs and over 100 in total
- Nearly 20,000 lines and over 300,000 words of Player and NPC Dialogue
- 8 Full and 6 Miscellaneous Quests
- Over 20 Followers with Location Based Commentary
- 8 Marriage NPCs
Now, the Interesting NPCs mod is a work in progress, but you can check it out over at Nexus Mods.
