Need a bit of help understanding Beyond Reach

[ALV]

I just finished it and got an ending where the region is under full scale war and I just gotta wonder....... did I F up? Did I make the wrong choices? Where and when? Are there different endings or what? Brain hurty

I heard someone say that this mod has a really depressing ending so I am guessing that this might be the only ending sorry and I haven't played this mod I just heard this from someone else and I am pretty sure this is the only ending because I heard say that.

No it's a dark mod. Afaik there is only one ending and I had the same experience. What annoyed me was forking out all that money for the player home only for it to be razed to the ground lol. But I guess that was the point of the story.

I guess the intent of the mod author was to highlight a not everything can be saved type story. There was alot of corruption going on in within the area after all.

I think whatever you do .. you cannot get a good ending in Beyond Reach.
The mod author said as much, though I'm not sure where I saw that. It is a pity that it turns out as such a tragedy. For all the work the mod author went through to make it and it doesn't make you want to replay it again.

That's really disappointing to hear, what's even sadder is that I don't think I can go back or can I?

You can load earlier saves ... like restarting the beyond Reach section of your play through or perhaps a new play through. That's more like replaying that part of the game.
However once the Beyond Reach has reached it's finale it's over.

Which is really sad, as the world he created would be great to play around in. Perhaps finding where to stop the story progress so you don't complete and end the story?

As far as I know, there's two endings where you just keep the Kingdom as it is (but let all the horrible stuff - especially with the children, continue), or you do the nuclear option of putting the kingdom to ruin.

Some things simply cannot be salvaged.


Unfortunately, the mod is essentially unfinished and probably will forever be so. Like, it ends, but it was way earlier than what was planned. Going out of bounds shows there's a lot of unfinished stuff. multiple town, fort and dungeon layouts scattered throughout the unplayable areas that clearly were meant to play a part and be able to be visited at some point, but are just left in a state of incomplete limbo. Some of the dungeons can even be entered and have a basic layout to them, but are clearly unfinished and can be quite a glitchy mess (had a dragon spawn in one, that could fly through terrain - scared the ♥♥♥♥ out of me).

Yes, it is a very dark story. I did get quite a bit of 'therapy' dealing with the pedos. But yeah, loosing everything else sucks and not having the mod finished sucks. It is such a huge project and the author has had to focus on other things for an income. It's a shame that Bethesda won't allow mods like this to go into the creation club content. These huge mods take so much work, and for those who put them on Nexus before the latest decision are just sol...arg.
