Greywolf1: First of all: These are NOT FREE STANDALONE total conversions: They still require the respective base games.
samhill345: Read the GOG pages before posting saving the embarrassment of being proven wrong.
'Skyrim Special Edition needs to be owned on GOG but it does not have to be installed to run the mod'
'Oblivion needs to be owned on GOG but does not need to be installed to run the mod'
Both have file sizes much larger then the maker's downloads.
Thanks for confirming my point. Both Nehrim and Enderal require a legal ownership of their respective base games. That these base games don't have to be installed in addition to their total conversions is correct, but it doesn't make the total conversions playable for everyone (or what does "free standalone" mean?).
You could have such an installation from the beginning, when Nehrim and Enderal were released: Just install the base game. download the total conversion from the SureAI site and run the installation procedure (it's what I did at the time). Moreover, the GOG offer is not available for all legal owners of the base game, but for the GOG owners only. Understandable, but the SureAI offer is available for all owners.
Finally that the file sizes are larger than the SureAI downloads is understandable: The total conversions need files from the base games to run, too.
Can we agree that Nehrim and Enderal are total conversions of their base games, free for all legal owners of the base games, that GOG offers standalone installations for the GOG owners of the base games, and that Nehrim and Enderal are available on the homepage of the developers, sureai.net, too?
