Yo should we like, make a Daggerrim?

First post ever but uh
Since Skyggerfall (which low-key sounds like an Elven slur), which is just Daggerfall in Skyrim's engine already exists, why not do the opposite and do Skyrim but in Daggerfall's engine (or we could just do what the DF remake is doing and use the Unity engine)

1.) Yes, this absolutely would take a lot of time, but this would more or less be a passion project so time wouldn't really matter (not like time is real, anyway)

2.) Try to use as little procedural generation as we can, and be as 1:1 as we can get.

I'm honestly wondering why we haven't done this yet, it would be really cool to see Skyrim in Daggerfall's style.

I'm not assuming that you're referring here to a group of modders you're part of that is willing to take on this project, so I'll just wonder how many dedicated Daggerfall Unity mod developers have actually played Skyrim to be even interested in this.

I'm not a part of any modding group, though I'd happily take up modding to make it happen.
My thought process was "If Daggerfall got the remake treatment by being put in Skyrim's engine, it only makes sense to give Skyrim the demake treatment and put it in Daggerfall's engine."

I'm not sure if Daggerfall Unity in its current state supports fully fledged map editing. AFAIK, most mods alter or add assets to the existing map of the Iliac bay. You would want a completely different map for a Skyrim demake.

Well, you know what they say.
