What distinguishes Enderal from Skyrim? 

One could say that we try to combine the concept of open world gaming with a complex and profound storyline. Furthermore, we try to merge the strengths of various open world games into one RPG. Enderal is a mixture of The Elder Scrolls and Gothic, added up with a multi-faceted and complex story. Enderal comes with a big world filled with, ruins and ancient fortresses and lots of interesting landmarks to explore. We will also add new features such as experience points, special classes and talents and set-items.
