This mod has POTENTIAL. Would be cool if the Dovahkiin would actually take you on the Main Quest with him! ... welll, seeing how crucial parts of his journey take place in locations noone can follow him, that might prove a bit difficult. Still, maybe there would be somewhat lore-friendly ways of allowing you to follow him to Sovngarde...
Maybe it is beyond your available time or energy, but I would love to see that!
This could actually be done as a completely separate mod. For one, it's a little unfair to ask a modder who signed up for something small, to go -that- far with it. Also, what if the mod literally went with the idea that anyone can be the dovakiin, even your followers? So the mod would set a follower to be the dovakiin, and you would essentially only be able to do the main quest with that follower with you.
Still, that is a big undertaking, getting the main quest to treat a follower as the main character. It would have many game breaking bugs during its development time.
No thats completely understandable, I was brainstorming ideas incase anyone thought to try suck a project, I didn't mean to sound like one of those "Wilx someones PLLLLZZZZZ makes thisssxxxxx!!!!!!1111!" posts
Much better! I think I will be downloading this soon and giving it a try. You wouldn't mind more suggestions or donations to the project would you? Like if I figured out a way to as one person said, have him travel around Skyrim, and when he meets you, initiate dialog to try to recruit you. I think it would be funny, though I have NO idea if it would be possible to have him be the actor in the main quests. It probably would not without redoing almost every quest in the main quest. Still, that would be an ambitious project.
No, it just adds a new follower named Dovahkiin. This was meant for people who use alternate start mods(so they don't start the main quest as the Dragonborn)
I don't suppose you could change it so the Dovahkiin seeks you out and says something like 'Come with me' or whatever the text is for initially hiring a companion, so it's like the proper experience with that one guy asking random people to follow him/her.
I agree. Matching the Dragonborn as shown in the trailers would be better. Let us upgrade him to dragonplate if we want.
Still though, I say keep working on this. I'd love to bring this guy into my play through, since I am not playing the main quest and I used Skyrim Unbound.
Why don't you guys just equip him with the stuff from the trailer? Personally I think the dragonplate suits him a lot more and should be kept, seeing as he is a dragon slayer.

Oh and why do you have to Torture him by putting next to Heimskr, go put the poor guy at the Inn for Sanity's sake.
