My "feel good" RUclips content creator! My stress always goes down when I watch your videos. Thanks for showing mods that are new to me. Keep up the awesome work!
Animation modders are the real MVPs of the modding community, I swear. The things they've done really help make some of the videos I've been doing way more lively. Also love the idea of the Immersive Death Cycle mod. I've been tempted to try it out when I get back to Skyrim, since I'm not sure if it's compatible with Enderal. Thanks so much for these showcases! Your game looks gorgeous.
Schlitzohr's stuff really is fantastic - I love Dunpar Wall and Reich Corigate the most. The way he blends the buildings with the environment to evoke a certain atmosphere really illustrates his talent.
Very true - I couldn't articulate the fact that they're that well blended in the terrain! That's probably why they are just as great they are, feeling very organic.
I recently found your channel and have been watching all your videos! They are so... ''comforting''? I don't know the best expression to use, but it gives off a very 'feel good vibe'. Your sweet voice and narration make everything even more welcoming to watch. Excellent job!
All these immersion mods certainly make Skyrim feel more alive! Thanks for introducing them! Also, in the beginning of Extended Encounters mod, what a violent way to move a person from a chair to a drawer.
I love your videos. You are always so positive and up beat and it makes your videos so enjoyable. Plus; some of the mod previews are ones that I have not considered using previously UNTIL I see how they truly work in-game. Thank you for the recommendations to make my Skyrim more enjoyable!
My favorite Skyrim mod RUclipsr posted a new video and it was absolutely fantastic as always! 💖 Thank you so much, Bards College Graduate! Now I have gestures for my NPCs! FINALLY! ✨IMMERSION✨
I've been playing skyrim since high school (8 years now? christ) and you've quickly become my favorite skyrim mod channel. Sometimes I feel that there's only so much more I can get out of this game, but you always have a good selection of mods that make the experience feel a little bit more fresh again.
Mod 1 - Vampire raids used to be part of the vanilla Dawnguard DLC. they were taken out, because they'd often result in side-quest givers getting killed, sometimes locking people out of thane-hood in some holds. Naturally, people complained. Mod 2 - I personally run travelers of Skyrim, it adds in adventurers, mercenaries and merchants traveling around the game space, both in Skyrim and Solstheim. I pair it with immersive patrols, which adds in patrols from the varying factions. mod 3 - that's a cool little addition. mods 4 and 5 - it never made sense that they'd leave so many forts and such to rot. especially with their strategic importance mid war.
As a Nord once said "Skyrim is for the mods" I couldn't agree more. I think I use several of these mods myself. I am surprised Immersive Citizens wasn't mentioned. Seeing Jenassa out her usually spot or the one time I caught her out the city being a bodyguard.
I love your videos, and as I'm always wandering Skyrim to relax, fishing, hunting, walking with my dog.... your suggestions are very handy. Thanks a lot.
You genuinely make some of the best Skyrim mod videos out there! I always appreciate how you do the "themed" mod lists. I really do love mods that add to that almighty ✨️i m m e r s i o n✨️, and this mod list was an absolute banger! Keep up the great work!!
She's back!! It's good to see you again!! I loved all of these mods. I already knew about the Death Cycle thing but the others are entirely new to me aside from animated ships. I do believe I will be downloading all of these, some of these have caught an itch I've been having for a while now where it feels like nothing really happens as time passes which is unfortunate I love the new towns. I will be spending a lot of time there and it'll really help keep things fresh and easier to keep to roleplaying as no one can feasibly stay awake for 7 months straight so having more inns to sleep in will really help. I love how unique they all are It was great to see you again bard!! I look forward to next week. Have a great week!!
Hii Anska, hope you've been faring well! I'm glad you liked the featured mods, they really help the feeling of time passing in the world and that's as immersive as we can go! :D Hope you enjoy them and especially the towns, they're super cool and nice to stop by before doing some quest or restock before going into a dungeon :)
Wow, these mods look amazing. I only recently started modding Skyrim, since before November, I only ever had Nintendo consoles and handhelds. Now that I've gotten an Xbox and recently acquired Skyrim, I figured it was time to give modding a try. I'm glad I knew what it would be like going into it or I would have given up pretty quickly. It can be a real fight as a new modder, sometimes I win and everything works well, sometimes I lose and it's a mess. You always have such good selections of mods in your videos and you are such a great narrator, yor voice is extremely soothing.
This is the best mod suggestion video I've seen for a while. I'm getting back into the game and have put in a lot of QOL and graphic enhancements, but tend to stay away from gameplay changes. The stuff you picked is perfect for slight tweaks to make it feel more immersive while remaining very vanilla in feel.
Hey there! Good to see you! (I think I have been talking like a Skyrim NPC. Or Dragon Age's) I think I have most of Schlitzohr's mods. The problem is that they are all esp files, so, they will take quite a few spots in load order. If I'm not mistaken he will release a All in One when he finishes his project, until the, I usually keep Oakwood active. Previously it was Oakwood, Stone Hills and maybe Amber Guard and Granite Hill, too. You see, I had seen what Skyrim looks like with all his mods plus Ryn's, Jk's, Vaelkas (Dawn of Skyrim) , Archinatic (The Great Cities) and JP Steel2 (Cities of the North). And Northern Road if are williing to go through a hell o patching. Girl, this game can be a masterpiece Plus Ultra! Like All Might would say! 😄 Well, if I manage to give in some not so essential mods, I think I will try again. I have handpicked 1.400 mods for my latest modlist, so far. I'm trying to keep all stable so that i can enjoy playing again! You know, playing for fun!
A great selection of location and immersion mods and I 'll be adding as many as I can. Skyrim's fast becoming an alternate reality to experience rather than just a game all thanks to the modding community!
I had a weird encounter a couple days ago that I've never come across before. I was just between Riverwood and Whiterun on the wiggly road that over looks the Whiterun valley, when I encountered two NPC's. One male who said nothing and one female. She had a Scottish accent and started off demanding money as she, as she described herself, was a wizard and she would smite me if I didn't pay her. But my character went into an amusing dialogue with her and she finally backed down. But as I've not added anything new, I'm not sure why or even how it happened. _That being said, I'm always finding new stuff I've never seen before in the game._ Maybe in another 10 years time, I'd have found every location and know where every passageway, lever, secret door and hidden chest is. _But somehow... I doubt it!_
Subscribed! I recently tracked some mods in Nexus and intended to download it next playthrough. You showcase those mods in this video. I can say that somehow I could ask your testimonies about mods I just bookmarked. lol
Another star in the sky of mod recommendations for Skyrim. Thanks again. Interesting mods, a pleasant way of speaking and easy-to-understand pronunciation make the "Bards College Graduate" videos a pleasure even for non-native speakers.
Those are all great mods. For me, I'd be careful about adding towns, because a big part of the fun for me is the open, wild places. I understand that for some people it might be boring to walk around in the wilderness, but I like being in the middle of nowhere. Even so, the town mods look very good. Have you ever played Oblivion? The town guards in Oblivion sometimes make an interesting gesture. I won't mention it in case you someday play the game. That's another excellent video, thank you.
Thank you Dave! I've played Oblivion - but not to completion and not enough to even catch up on your meaning, seems like I need to go back to it as I'm now intrigued! xD
@@BardsCollegeGraduate I'll give you a hint. Don't interact with the guard. Stand back so that the guard thinks he's alone, then wait. They only make the gesture occasionally, so you might have to try a few or several times. :)
Another charming video. I already have most all of these mods but it's comforting seeing them get recognition. I think I like them more when you describe them as earnestly you do.
Thank you, you're so sweet! Yeah, none of these mods are exactly brand new, but I hope at least a couple of people found them for the first time through this list xD
@@BardsCollegeGraduate Absolutely! I didnt know any of these mods before watching your showcase. Mod showcases that are about immersiveness get rarely recommended to me. And most other showcases about graphical enhancements dont interest me too much.
As much as I can appreciate the mods and am glad they exist, I don't think the dialogue animation mod is necessarily natural looking, since people RL don't often make gestures like that in regular conversation. Great vid tho!
@@BardsCollegeGraduate Yeah absolutely :) And I can appreciate how the added animation can feel better in a game, and ironically boost immersion since games work differently than RL. And no worries, your vids are gems!
Schlitzor's new towns are amazing, and i'm happy you give them more spotlight. I never play without at least 3 of them... is one of my 2 main modders in terms of new town resources. Since i care a lot about not only new town being lore-friendly, but also well located, the ones i prefer are Vernim Wood (but i would like if it was higher on the street, on the entrance of the Rift forest on the above plateau, that is in fact called Vernim Wood, and that gave the old settlement the name), Dunpar Wall, Neugrad (that you showcase) but even more Granite Hill and Oakwood (that are perfect in lore and placement, so perfect that initially a vanilla Granite Hill was meant to exist near where Schitzor create his own, but was never done due to devs and release schedules). Amber Guard is amazing as a town, but that placement feels odd to me: too close to Khartwasten to be a necessary settlement, to close to a Forsworn Fort (Broken tower redoubt, if i remeber well) to logically be a thriving village
I was waiting for a good place to feature them - these towns are awesome! :D Oakwood I didn't like that much for some reason and thus didn't showcase it but the rest are great. And you have some great points about Amber Guard, the placement is a bit off.
Oh your characters look so amazing!! The face, the hair, the horns, the townsfolk clothes, the guard armors, even nazeem got a glow up, do you happen do have any video showcasing these mods? To overhaul npc's looks, clothes/armors and such. Or maybe a list of mods, I can't be the only one that got mesmerized by them
Happy to hear you think so! :D Clothes are from Divine Wardrobe, this video's NPC section for the overhauls: ruclips.net/video/wDf-BziSkfk/видео.html and the modlist if you want to check that out as well: www.patreon.com/posts/mod-list-over-83418928
Will you cover peaceful living? It turns most babdits into downtrodden and won't attack you. You can also hear less heard bandit dialogues, perfect for bandit dialogue line expansion. Its pretty good. Its immersive because it'll show you the effects of the civil war. Its also just nice to not be fighting all the time. There's already plenty to fight.
Your energy is surely traveling through the screen making me smile with you as you showcase all these cool mods, thank you for making us relaxed and informed of sll the new mods : )
I just came across your channel a few days ago and I've been binge watching your videos since then! You've quickly become one of my favourite Skyrim mod reviewers on RUclips! Your Skyrim looks beautiful ❤ Your videos are so well made and you have a lovely voice for narration 🥰 I feel such a sense of inner peace while watching and I've really needed that lately ❤ Thank you for the amazing content! Keep up the good work 😊👌
Oh thanks Ryna.... just got the game tweaked after weeks and was about to have a new play through and you drop this video where I HVE TO HAVE Extended Encounters and Radiance!!.... already have a lot of the other ones and they are fantastic... so I trust the ones I am getting will be essential too.... Thanks
I'm so glad I discovered your channel, your videos always brighten my day a little :P Also personally I can't go without Interesting NPCs in my Skyrim!
I'm glad you found your way here! Interesting NPCs is amazing- I need to download it again, I remember I loved it when I first got it years and years ago! It could've been a good addition on this video too, maybe xD
Hi there, good to have another video from you. Both content & narrative are top notch, as usual. I have recently come across 2 mods that add new, quality content to the game and would make great subject for one of your next videos. Land of Vominheim & Hammet's Dungeon Pack 1 are the names, in case you haven't already spotted them. Keep up the good work!
when the video started and i heard your voice i thought you were singing 🤔 your voice is just so soothing. By the way can you pls tell me what mods you are using that your game looks so realistic the lighting, the weather, the texture and world design and the looks of npc and your character looks so realistic.
Always good to see one of your videos, and again I found some gems. Animation mods are a bit of a blind spot to me, even though I do have OAR as a requirement mod already. So those last two mods were a great recommendation.
As usual, another excellent showcase and another bunch of mods I need to check out. :) Btw, what is adding the different dresses, like Ysolda's at 12:24, or the blue one at 14:13?
Ryn's Western Watchtower is another option for the tower that has it rebuilt after the attack, it is done much faster than the Environs one though as it's not in stages. Environs is great, and its parts also have many patches to keep them compatible. Schilitzor's towns are great, I'd also suggest looking at some of the towns added by that mod with Legendary Cities - TES Arena, I find Amol, Granite Hall, and Blackmoor fit best when using the previously mentioned mods, as the rest are too close to something added. There's another town mod called Brirgate which I find has a nice synergy with Skyrim Realistic Conquering due to a nearby spot, and it fits well enough alongside Meridia's Order if you use that. It's a nice little town on 1 road. I also found Whiterun Cheese Factory not too long ago, a cute little mod that is compatible with most if not all Whiterun exterior overhauls, adds a single building, a cute cheese place run by a couple Khajiits. I love charming little mods like that and hope anyone reading will like it and Brirgate, they're mods I think should be seen by more people.
I see! I love everything Ryn creates, I need to check that one out, as well as Legendary Cities, sounds epic! And no way, Whiterun Cheese Factory sounds absolutely adorable!!! :D
I've used Dunpar Wall, Granite Hill, and Amber Guard, for several play throughs, and those are mainstays in my game. I've used Reich Corigate a couple times, but I'm not in that part of the world often enough to justify it taking a mod slot. More To Say is good as well,. I'm going to look into the travelling merchants mod and the ruined house mod, I'll miss the extra gold you can get from checking on the chest under the floor, but with the merchants running around, I'm certain it will even out!

The narrator really should consider voice acting, I LOVE her voice.
The voice of an angel
Well thank you! xD I'm flattered!
Someone out here in a Skyrim quest mod?
Its that Aussie accent.
@@reallybigjohnson this is definitely not Aussie
My "feel good" RUclips content creator! My stress always goes down when I watch your videos. Thanks for showing mods that are new to me. Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks for including Wandering Merchants, appreciate the kind words and glad you like the mod. :)
Thank you for the mod! :D The merchants are great!!
Rain storm you are the creator ?! Well done ! I love that mod!
@@ElPinshiHimura Thank you so much! Glad ya love it, and appreciate the kind words.
I am gonna download your mod tonight dude :D Are they selling unique stuff?
@@Psikotrexex Not unique stuff, nope, they've got standard general goods. Hope you like the mod. :)
I get happy knowing people are still making mod showcases, Well done.
We are!! As long as there are new mods, we'll be here, making videos :P haha! Thank you!
I don't want to live in a world where there are no mod showcases! jk
😾
Animation modders are the real MVPs of the modding community, I swear. The things they've done really help make some of the videos I've been doing way more lively.
Also love the idea of the Immersive Death Cycle mod. I've been tempted to try it out when I get back to Skyrim, since I'm not sure if it's compatible with Enderal.
Thanks so much for these showcases! Your game looks gorgeous.
I agree- animation mods have been popping off lately! :D So good!! Thanks for watching :)
Bard, you should turn yourself into a voiced follower in the Nexus!
I hope that can happen someday xD
Someone better
Voice not to different to Sofia funny follower and would definitely suit voice acting 👍
Yes! The moment I stumbled upon her channel my first thought was "wow, she would fit right in with that accent" 😅
Lol I honestly thought she already voiced an NPC mod
Great recommendations as always. Skyrim has never looked more alive.
The towns!😩 This entire video was a masterpiece. I cannot wait to download these mods, all the towns are so beautiful
0:45 "Khajiit will suplex you into a fucking chest of drawers"
hehehe
Schlitzohr's stuff really is fantastic - I love Dunpar Wall and Reich Corigate the most. The way he blends the buildings with the environment to evoke a certain atmosphere really illustrates his talent.
Very true - I couldn't articulate the fact that they're that well blended in the terrain! That's probably why they are just as great they are, feeling very organic.
thank you for recommending extended encounters! love immersion that doesn’t edit vanilla records. also, the way you pronounce mirmulnir is EVERYTHING
Hahaha thank you! :D figured it's easier to say in the Finn accent than to try to pronounce it in an American way xD
I recently found your channel and have been watching all your videos!
They are so... ''comforting''? I don't know the best expression to use, but it gives off a very 'feel good vibe'. Your sweet voice and narration make everything even more welcoming to watch. Excellent job!
Aww, thank you so much! I really aim for that relaxing vibe, so that makes me happy. Welcome Mathieu!
All these immersion mods certainly make Skyrim feel more alive! Thanks for introducing them!
Also, in the beginning of Extended Encounters mod, what a violent way to move a person from a chair to a drawer.
xDD thank you so much!
I love your videos. You are always so positive and up beat and it makes your videos so enjoyable. Plus; some of the mod previews are ones that I have not considered using previously UNTIL I see how they truly work in-game. Thank you for the recommendations to make my Skyrim more enjoyable!
My favorite Skyrim mod RUclipsr posted a new video and it was absolutely fantastic as always! 💖
Thank you so much, Bards College Graduate! Now I have gestures for my NPCs! FINALLY! ✨IMMERSION✨
✨IMMERSION✨indeedd!!!! Thank you so much januarygrey
I laughed so hard when you said you can show Nazeem who the real boss of the Cloud District is! Awesome video, my fellow Bard!
hehehe! Thank you!!
Great video!! The production value is off the charts!! Keep grinding my friend ;)
Thank you my friend 💚🙏
Nothing pleases me more than watching your beautiful game while listening to your enthralling voice
Thank you :D
That hidden bath seems like a nice little hide-away to sneak into after a day of travelling.
Right- sooo cozy! And probably smells amazing xD
Literally every single one of these mods are top notch. I'm very pleasantly surprised
Happy to hear that!
I did not know about most of these. I am going to try them out once I get my mod list re-built!
Have fun!!
I've been playing skyrim since high school (8 years now? christ) and you've quickly become my favorite skyrim mod channel. Sometimes I feel that there's only so much more I can get out of this game, but you always have a good selection of mods that make the experience feel a little bit more fresh again.
Thank you so much, friend! :D 💚 yup, Skyrim has been played through and through but these mods can really make it feel fresher! It's the best :)
Oh dang, a lot of immediate downloads here (some I already have)
Edit: Also a mod nobody ever talks about is Faction Warfare. You should check it out.
Mod 1 - Vampire raids used to be part of the vanilla Dawnguard DLC. they were taken out, because they'd often result in side-quest givers getting killed, sometimes locking people out of thane-hood in some holds. Naturally, people complained.
Mod 2 - I personally run travelers of Skyrim, it adds in adventurers, mercenaries and merchants traveling around the game space, both in Skyrim and Solstheim. I pair it with immersive patrols, which adds in patrols from the varying factions.

The cinematic shot at 3:56 was BREATH TAKING HOLY SMOKES!! I literally replayed it 5 times lmao, Great Work!!!
Ahhhh that makes me so happy!!!! :D I thought it turned out great too! xD Thank you so much!
I check Nexus just about every day and still there are mods in your videos I somehow missed. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much! No worries, I miss a lot of good ones, too :D
0:44 "Watch Out! WATCH OUT! " BOOM. Suplex at the start of the video is definitely a sureshot way of getting the audience fired up 😤
Lmaoooo xD That was so crazy, even happened in the old Olava's house!
Every video I get one or two mods that inch me closer to that 'perfect modlist' goal. Thanks!
I'm so glad! Thanks for watching!
I love your videos, and as I'm always wandering Skyrim to relax, fishing, hunting, walking with my dog.... your suggestions are very handy. Thanks a lot.
Skyrim is the ultimate cozy game! Thanks for watching

Let's gooo! taking notes so I can spend my whole weekend just modding
Hahha yess I love that plan for the weekend! :D
Great showcase, Ryna! :D I especially like the mods to liven up the roads and populate the world with more travelers and events to witness.
Hey, thank you so much! :)
Gotta love those small mods that somehow make the world feel way more alive
Agreed 🩷

I see!! Now you made me want to do a survival playthrough now as well :D
Love how she likes and replys to everyone great vid.
Of course! Thank you!
Really impressive list! I'm preparing my Skyrim for an immersive VR experience and I'll probably be adding all of these. Thanks!
Oooh that'll be amazing!! Have fun!
A great selection of location and immersion mods and I 'll be adding as many as I can.

They get placed in a ruined state throughout Skyrim really neat.

I was waiting for a good place to feature them - these towns are awesome! :D Oakwood I didn't like that much for some reason and thus didn't showcase it but the rest are great. And you have some great points about Amber Guard, the placement is a bit off.
I've been loving your videos lately BCG!❤
I'm so glad! 🙏🙏
I have never modded on PC Skyrim, but this will definitely be the video to get me into it (though I should learn how to first)
Love to hear that! There can be some learning curve, but after the beginning it'll be smooth riding :D Good luck!!
Oh your characters look so amazing!! The face, the hair, the horns, the townsfolk clothes, the guard armors, even nazeem got a glow up, do you happen do have any video showcasing these mods? To overhaul npc's looks, clothes/armors and such. Or maybe a list of mods, I can't be the only one that got mesmerized by them
Happy to hear you think so! :D Clothes are from Divine Wardrobe, this video's NPC section for the overhauls: ruclips.net/video/wDf-BziSkfk/видео.html and the modlist if you want to check that out as well: www.patreon.com/posts/mod-list-over-83418928
@@BardsCollegeGraduate oh, thanks for the answer!! You're always so considerate, the modlist is extremely helpful too c:
Of course! Have fun
Your contents bring life to skyrim and i love your voice, thanks and keep going❤
You're so kind! thank you muchos :)
Will you cover peaceful living? It turns most babdits into downtrodden and won't attack you. You can also hear less heard bandit dialogues, perfect for bandit dialogue line expansion.
Its pretty good. Its immersive because it'll show you the effects of the civil war. Its also just nice to not be fighting all the time. There's already plenty to fight.
Your energy is surely traveling through the screen making me smile with you as you showcase all these cool mods, thank you for making us relaxed and informed of sll the new mods : )
I just came across your channel a few days ago and I've been binge watching your videos since then!
You've quickly become one of my favourite Skyrim mod reviewers on RUclips!
Your Skyrim looks beautiful ❤ Your videos are so well made and you have a lovely voice for narration 🥰
I feel such a sense of inner peace while watching and I've really needed that lately ❤ Thank you for the amazing content! Keep up the good work 😊👌
Aww thank you so much for all the overflowing compliments! Glad you stumbled upon here, welcome!! :D
I'm glad I did too 😁 thank you 😊
On kyllä rentouttavia nämä sinun videot. Hienon näköstä sun Skyrim.
Kiitos! 💚🙏
Oh thanks Ryna.... just got the game tweaked after weeks and was about to have a new play through and you drop this video where I HVE TO HAVE Extended Encounters and Radiance!!.... already have a lot of the other ones and they are fantastic... so I trust the ones I am getting will be essential too....
Thanks
I'm so glad I discovered your channel, your videos always brighten my day a little :P
Also personally I can't go without Interesting NPCs in my Skyrim!
I'm glad you found your way here! Interesting NPCs is amazing- I need to download it again, I remember I loved it when I first got it years and years ago! It could've been a good addition on this video too, maybe xD
Just discovered this channel, absolutely love it,
Welcome to the channel HulkVahkiin!! Thank you :)
Your skyrim is breath taking!
Thank you, cutie!!
Hi there, good to have another video from you. Both content & narrative are top notch, as usual. I have recently come across 2 mods that add new, quality content to the game and would make great subject for one of your next videos. Land of Vominheim & Hammet's Dungeon Pack 1 are the names, in case you haven't already spotted them. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much! I'll check them out for sure; recs are always appreciated
when the video started and i heard your voice i thought you were singing 🤔 your voice is just so soothing. By the way can you pls tell me what mods you are using that your game looks so realistic the lighting, the weather, the texture and world design and the looks of npc and your character looks so realistic.
Thank you! :D I have mod list here: www.patreon.com/posts/mod-list-over-83418928
i was stoned when i saw khajit doing that suplex at 0:45
lmaooo
Amazing mod for immersive experiences , jumping to Skyrim right away thank you
Have fun!! :D
Always good to see one of your videos, and again I found some gems. Animation mods are a bit of a blind spot to me, even though I do have OAR as a requirement mod already. So those last two mods were a great recommendation.
Great to hear that! I'm sure you'll love these animation mods, they're so goooooodddd!!
I just love your mods! I know many of these mods already but your content makes my stress go away!
I'm glad you liked the video! :D
As usual, another excellent showcase and another bunch of mods I need to check out. :) Btw, what is adding the different dresses, like Ysolda's at 12:24, or the blue one at 14:13?
Thank you so much Monk! They're all from Divine Wardrobes, a mod that distributes outfits to NPCs- a fantastic one, highly recommended! :D
omg you have such a cute voice 😭
also, great content !! super glad i found your channel. ((':
Aww, thank you so much!!
ur voice brings me peace
"Be sure to try their special Amber Mead. But don't take too much at once cause it will run right through you like the Darkwater River"
It's always a good day when Bard's College upload a video 🤠
always a good day when I get a urbonx comment 👀🙏
i been looking all around nexus for that guard armor replacer tht looks amazing ;-;, and i been loving your videos my game feels more alive
Sons of Skyrim! Thank you so much 💚
Another good one that I enjoys is Immersive World Encounters. Have to give radiance a try it looks pretty good
Everytime you begin to pronounce a word i think you are about to begin singing a bardic song
Hahaha! :D I might, you'll never know!
I started tracking a handful of those to my next save, thank you!
It's my pleasure!
What is the mod that gives priests that robe at 12:42?
Me watching a video about making Skyrim feel more alive while simultaneously playing a whole load order built around Shattered feels... unreal.
Hahaha the duality of man
Awesome video! I took a break from skyrim since 2022, can't wait to check out all these new mod :))
Thank you so much- and welcome back to Skyrim modding! :D The last years have been incredible for mods, you're in for a treat
this make me want to play skyrim again. just to install this modlist, also your skyrim looks like a current gen game, wow.
Skyrim is always there, waiting to get modded and played 🤠 thank you!!
Will we ever be able to stop modding and start playing Skyrim again?
Thanks for the awesome video, Graduate. And... s**t... here we go again. 🤣🤣🤣
Probably not xDD Thank you for watching!
The Khajit suplexing the home invader before the guard can intervene.
Hehehe
Ryn's Western Watchtower is another option for the tower that has it rebuilt after the attack, it is done much faster than the Environs one though as it's not in stages. Environs is great, and its parts also have many patches to keep them compatible.
Schilitzor's towns are great, I'd also suggest looking at some of the towns added by that mod with Legendary Cities - TES Arena, I find Amol, Granite Hall, and Blackmoor fit best when using the previously mentioned mods, as the rest are too close to something added. There's another town mod called Brirgate which I find has a nice synergy with Skyrim Realistic Conquering due to a nearby spot, and it fits well enough alongside Meridia's Order if you use that. It's a nice little town on 1 road.
I also found Whiterun Cheese Factory not too long ago, a cute little mod that is compatible with most if not all Whiterun exterior overhauls, adds a single building, a cute cheese place run by a couple Khajiits. I love charming little mods like that and hope anyone reading will like it and Brirgate, they're mods I think should be seen by more people.
I see! I love everything Ryn creates, I need to check that one out, as well as Legendary Cities, sounds epic! And no way, Whiterun Cheese Factory sounds absolutely adorable!!! :D
Thanks for the upload! I always look forward to it.
Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching :)
As usual, you showcase some interesting mods. Thank you.
Thank you so much Charles!
THAT SUPLEX THO GODAMN
really cool mods as always. I hope they work with my downgraded version
They should all work without any problems! :)
Now that's a fantastic list!
Thank you so much :)
Excellent work. Thanks!
It's my pleasure!
I've used Dunpar Wall, Granite Hill, and Amber Guard, for several play throughs, and those are mainstays in my game. I've used Reich Corigate a couple times, but I'm not in that part of the world often enough to justify it taking a mod slot.
More To Say is good as well,.
I'm going to look into the travelling merchants mod and the ruined house mod, I'll miss the extra gold you can get from checking on the chest under the floor, but with the merchants running around, I'm certain it will even out!
Great taste! I had another Granite Hill mod but now I'm tempted to try out Schlitzohr's version, too :D
Let’s go, it’s been too long Bard, glad to see you uploading a new video
Let's goooo 💪💪 been a bit busy lately but trying to prioritize RUclips as well!
Great video! Thank you!
Thanks friend!! :)
\o,o/ You know, I've been playing with a lot of companion mods like Koemia or Secunda and I think a BCG follower might be a great patreon thing.
It'd be so cool to work on a BCG follower mod - been highly requested too which is crazy xD - but we'll see, we'll see... :D
