It’s a good week to be an *Elder Scrolls* fan, and not just because it’s so freaking cold outside that there’s a halfway-decent chance you’ll be able to spot the Northern Lights, reliving that magic hike from *Skyrim*.

One reason to be excited is that the fan project *Skywind*—a remake of *Morrowind* using *Skyrim’s* engine, duh—is making headway and looks outstanding. The first developer’s diary tells the tale of 70 brave volunteers who took on the task of a monolithic studio and in all honesty look to be turning out a better game than Bethesda would have. Let’s have a look, shall we:

The other bit of news is that *Elder Scrolls Online* will let players become “Emperors,” lords of the sword who’ve earned special stats by playing with a sort of inexhaustible reserve. Exactly how you do this gets complicated; [read here.](http://www.oxm.co.uk/68869/what-youll-get-for-becoming-emperor-in-the-elder-scrolls-online/?ref=killscreen.com) This is potentially cool and gives the game that added initiative so necessary in an MMO of being bigger and better than the rest, but I can imagine a lot of other players wanting to kick an Emperor’s ass.

That’s it for now. See you next time for more news and vikings and stuff.
