I remember personally asking Enai for his take on a werewolf mod and at the time he didn't seem to understand why a werewolf mod would even be needed because he hadn't really tried being a werewolf before in his own playthroughs... (This happened in the Nexus mod comment section below one of his other mods) I started explaining it to him before somebody else hopped in and finished explaining the problems with lycanthropy in the base game of Skyrim. I remember reading the mod author decide then and there to make a vanilla plus style mod for that (although I don't think he had come up with the name "growl - werebeast of Skyrim" yet) Enai if you're reading this!!! THANK YOU!!!
I feel like the vanilla werewolf footsteps are good enough because it makes more sense for an Apex predator to be a bit more sneaky than a werewolves size would let them on to be. Harder to catch your prey when they can hear you coming.
I had a chance to test it out and can confirm that it does indeed work and seems to be fully compatible with all the other mods I featured in the video.
I've had a Flexispot standing deck for a couple years now and I couldn't be happier with it! I always like seeing sponsors that I actually use and endorse.
Big fan of JPSTEEL’s new Berserkyr quest mod that deals with werebears too. Not as relevant maybe since this is about werewolf specific mods, but the Berserkyr patch collection also makes it possible to run werewolf overhaul mods alongside the overhaul of werebears introduced by Berserkyr, allowing you to basically have separated but consistent overhauls for both Werebears and Werewolves. Not to mention that Berserkyr is just a really cool mod. Opportunity to become a werebear, introduces some ideas based on real Viking history, new armor, special new ingredient. Perfect alternative to the Companions faction quests, too. I run it alongside Growl and the Old Ways: Nordic Religion. After using the dedicated patch collection to make it all run more smoothly together, you get the Imperial pantheon inside cities where it belongs, but the ancient Nordic pantheon in the wilderness. Then you can stumble along these tribal, almost Skaal-like werebear folk and can even join their practices if you want to.
Wow I had no idea there was a new iteration of Moonlight Tales and that it can actually be used alongside Growl. I’ve always been forced to pick between the two in the past
@@happy_btwthe mod listed in this video, “Moonlight Tales Mini - Highly Compatible” is basically moonlight tales, Will some things taken out, but filled in with others. You can use growl and basically any other werewolf mod with it.
Will be checking out all of these mods for my werewolf play-through *except* the one for their footsteps. I think a creature that primarily comes out at night should have quiet footsteps and size isn’t a factor in this regard. Tigers and other big cats can be remarkably stealthy. Why not Werewolves, eh?
@IvanGerasimov-gn4teyea but that’s what an apex predator is is it not? For example in real life the one doing the killing and not dying in return is the one who’s not seen so it makes it feel more like a werewolf
Werewolves arent the same as actual irl apex predators. Nothing in skyrim can outrun a werewolf (not even close), and 99% cant even kill it. It has zero reason to be sneaky
Low chance but id love to know what armor you're using. specifically the one with the bear head on the shoulder. Been looking for something like it forever!! 2:01 if you want a time the armor is shown!
I remember the original moonlight tales as a kid and how much I loved it. Now as an adult with a fully rigged PC, I think it’s time I return back to Skyrim
You'll likely never read this, but Doctor Nostalgia is the single greatest mod content for Skyrim or any game on the site right now. The incredibly editing, storytelling, tone, cinematic shots and of course the mod choices just blow everyone else out of the water. I eagerly await every video of yours at this point
You said that the werewolf transformation doesn't scale well at higher lvls which may be true. But you can use the dragon aspect shout and then transform into a werewolf. I call this super Saiyan werewolf. You will get insane buffs as a result. Unfortunately you won't get the buffs with the vampire lord form but you get better looking visuals.
I use Rudy ENB for Cathedral Weathers, Zangdar's Edit. As far as graphics mods, I use quite a lot of them. If you're interested, my entire modlist can be found on my Patreon
I just wish they would have added quest with the companions, or even another character or a pack or something similar where you all go hunting together. Or if they would have made it where every month there is a full moon and no matter what time, or where you are in the game you and all other wolves turn. Being able to eat raw meat and corpses while in human form would have also been cool. Changing the appearance of the character in human form.
I don't know if we're allowed to request video ideas here, but what if you made a video all about modded outfits? Either because of what they do, how they look, or both. I think there are a lot of really cool modded armors that deserve some recognition.
I had originally planned on including it but it didn't make it to the final cut, you can find it here: www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/83806
Cool, wonder if their's mod where after you reach certain Werewolf level or do all Werewolf missions main and side you can unlock and Werewolf or Wolf inspired weaponry,clothing and most of all armor who can wear in both human and Werewolf forms.
For the Silver Hand armours, I prefer the mod "Unplayable Faction Armours". Makes the unplayable factions, such as the Silver Hand much more unique looking.
I'm not sure which one you're referring to, but both of these were used in the video: www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/35382 www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/13236
Werewolf Narrative Expansion has been hidden and seems to be down for good, does anyone know anything that does similar? Also Predators - A Werewolf and Vampire Role Playing Tool works well for trying to blend in, eventually cause Silver Hand or Dawnguard/Vigilants to cities to patrol. It's really fun and add some stuff for werewolves.
wow i was about just to replace Sacrosanct with Better Vampires +BVL and just keep growl untouched, but the werewolf encounters alone has me sold on also getting Moonlight Tales, especially since I can be lazy and keep Growl up. I'm loving the idea of playing a vampire and encountering and fighting more packs of werewolves at night. Ah fuck, I'm about to Make my character look like Kate Beckinsale aren't i? Gonna have to go full Underworld now
Hey, do you think you can do one for peachy? Where you can be both? Where will tesla's vampire and convince your companionstop inside work either werewolf or vampires , another mother or nurses increase the present
Werewolf mods are fairly sparse especially compared to vampires. There aren’t enough to warrant a part 2, at least not now. I also had to cut a few I had originally intended on including due to them having incompatibilities with one or more of the other mods I showcased.
When it comes to Tamriel's therianthropy disease, is it possible to become a Werebear by being attacked by Wild/Feral Werebears and normal Bears through one of these mods?
As of Dec 11, 2023, Werewolf Narrative Expansion was set to hidden due to "This mod is currently not supported by the author(s) and/or has issue(s) they are unable to fix yet." Would be neat if it returns.
You should have included this mod (i forgot its name 💀) were it changes the werewolves model to make them less demonic and more wolf like (there is also now female werewolves) its fully compable with this other mod called werewolves variants which well as the name says makes variants
I remember playing as a werewolf with moonlight tales it was so fun but so annoying! 😂 For example when I just got to Windhelm for the first time and then BAM! a dragon attacks. I try to fight him and then BAM! I transform into werewolf. City guards start attacking me instead of helping me, the dragon tries to roast me from the sky and I can do absolutely nothing with it.😂 And that was only the beginning. I fled to the abandoned shack, killed a sabercat there. Because the sabercat I could hit, unlike the dragon. I also used some needs mod, so my pc needed to eat and sleep. So I waited for the transformation to end, then I ate and slept for the rest of the day. In the evening I went to try and enter Windhelm again. And as soon as I reached the famous bridge, it was all there again. The f**king dragon, the transformation, the guards...😢😢😢 I felt so helpless I wanted to cry. I decided to hide under the bridge in a small niche, where the dragon could not reach me and wait till the guards kill that thing. It was a good plan. What could possibly go wrong? Then to my horror I felt something is squeezing me out of my hideout. It was my horse, which I completely forgot about! It spawned right behind me for some reason and took the niche completely. I regretted having a horse at that moment. The dragon was happy, me - less so. I fled again to the abandoned shack which I should have called my home at this point.😂 Waited, ate, slept. Went to Windhelm again. I know I'm stubborn. But this time I was lucky. The f**king dragon attacked me near Kynesgrove. It happened at dusk so the cursed full moon was not out yet and I could use my spells. For the first time in that playthrough I was as happy to fight and kill a dragon as the true dragonborn should be!😂 The villagers were happy too. They were praising me for saving them and then BAM! I transformed. 😅 I had to flee again to avoid killing them. If you are into that kind of experience, try forced transformations from Moonlight tales.
Only thing I don't like is the loud footsteps sound effects. I remember meeting wolves in real life. It was snowing and they were literally walking arms' length from where I stood. And I have sensitive hearing. To the point where I can hear bats and electronics running and such. I couldn't hear them.
There were a few that I unlisted because I wasn't happy with the way they turned out. If you're looking for the zombie one you can still watch it with this link: ruclips.net/video/NDNSZs6iNW8/видео.html
No first person werewolf mod? Doesn't seem like the ultimate collection if you can't embody a werewolf through their eyes. Still a pretty cool collection though.
moonlight tales is kind of lore breaking. Companion's version of the beast blood is more stable and they are in full control, full moons don't affect them.

That's a fair point. I would love to see someone make a proper stealth mod for werewolves so they could be played more so as a stealthy predator
@@DoctorNostalgiaModsthere actually is one, though I haven’t tried it myself.
It’s called Werewolf Animation and Sneak Extension (OAR)
@@DoctorNostalgiaModsOAR works fine alongside the Nemesis.
I had a chance to test it out and can confirm that it does indeed work and seems to be fully compatible with all the other mods I featured in the video.
Which of the 4 files did you download? because the nemesis gives me an error@@DoctorNostalgiaMods

Tks for the collection doctor just in time for my werewolf run
Your themed mod showcases are fantastic
Thanks. Glad you’re enjoying them ;)
Keep making great mod videos lots of the mods you’ve shown us I personally use
Glad to hear it and there's more to come soon
@@DoctorNostalgiaMods good to know
That was one of the best openers ever! I liked just cuz that view. Nice.
May just have to start a new werewolf playthrough, thanks love the content!
You should, you won't regret it! and thanks for watching :)
I have been waiting for a video like this to come out for way too long. Thank you
Glad you found it helpful, thanks for watching!
Amazing as always man. I was looking forward for this one!!!!!!!!!
Dang I didn't know some of these existed, especially the Moonlight Tales that you can use with Growl. Awesome!
These mods are awesome! Great video too, it's nice to see elder scrolls werewolves get some spotlight
great to see another top quality video from you Doc, great list :)
Thanks JJerem. I just realized that I missed the perfect opportunity to feature your werewolf totem replacer :(
@@DoctorNostalgiaMods Aw no worries :) maybe another time ;) keep eyes peeled for something new using that skull mesh sometime soon ;)
Looking forward to it
You should try the "Skin-walkers" mod by chucacu. Best Werewolf skin by far IMO. Flies under the radar because the name is very searchable
Solid recommendation, that skin is absolutely terrifying
only mouth movement is needed and it would be the best skin replacer for sure
Low chance but id love to know what armor you're using. specifically the one with the bear head on the shoulder. Been looking for something like it forever!! 2:01 if you want a time the armor is shown!
Awesome! I'm still waiting for a mod that lets you sneak while in beast form.
You and me both!
There is one haha it's called werewolf animation and sneak extension (oar)
@@agrronz8981 woah, thanks!
You always make the best modlists Doc ! 👌
I remember the original moonlight tales as a kid and how much I loved it. Now as an adult with a fully rigged PC, I think it’s time I return back to Skyrim
Another NFF enjoyer. Underrated mod, respect.
Who in the hell chooses vampirism over lycanthropy
Magic users 😂 far and few my friend
All magic and most stealth builds?
Me
Whats that armor mod at 5:50??

What animation mod is 9:29
You said that the werewolf transformation doesn't scale well at higher lvls which may be true. But you can use the dragon aspect shout and then transform into a werewolf. I call this super Saiyan werewolf. You will get insane buffs as a result. Unfortunately you won't get the buffs with the vampire lord form but you get better looking visuals.
Yoooooo😂😂😂, I literally thought I was the only one does this or knows of this Lol
What enb or mods are you using to make your skyrim look like this??? I need these in my game so bad man

what armor mod is that when you showed that female orc
What Mods did you use to create the female orc at 5:50 ?
And is this reversed sword holding at 9:29 also part of the Silverhand Mod?
I don't know if we're allowed to request video ideas here, but what if you made a video all about modded outfits? Either because of what they do, how they look, or both. I think there are a lot of really cool modded armors that deserve some recognition.

I noticed your werewolf attack animations are different what mod is that? Also what mod you use to make the camera like this 10:35?

What is the armor you was using on your characters?
What armor are you using in the video?
Have you consider a part 2 expanding on more categories for werewolves with your point of view and knowledge?
Thank you for your content
What smoothcam are you using?
For the Silver Hand armours, I prefer the mod "Unplayable Faction Armours". Makes the unplayable factions, such as the Silver Hand much more unique looking.
Steel Plate Armor retexture looks awesome. Anyone know what it is called?

Fluffworks
Hey, do you think you can do one for peachy? Where you can be both? Where will tesla's vampire and convince your companionstop inside work either werewolf or vampires , another mother or nurses increase the present
try useing 'Dragon among beasts' this mod lets you use your dragon shouts in beast form.
With Growl, can I stay in my werewolf form if I want? I want to the option to run in the woods as a werewolf, and not need to kill if I don't have to.
are there just not as many werewolf related mods as vampire ones or are you gonna make another video?

anyone know how i can give my npc companion different skins? i have diverse and moonlight tales but my followers won't have a skin for themselves
Can you make another video like this for werewolves but aiming more at console player
i was wondering what body mod you were using... its just basic unp right? those breast shapes don't look like cbbe

Could you do a Witcher video?
I need to use all the mods of the list together to work?
If you don’t have a mod, if you get bit by one, will you still turn in to a werewolf
There is a mod that take off fall damage for werewolves?
whats the mod leaves bones after feeding ?
Only thing I don't like is the loud footsteps sound effects.

Imagine if u could use thum while in beast form
Btw can you become a werebear in vanilla?
Nope
I keep getting Growl found integrity issue when i transform

Would you do a khajiit overhaul
I’ve rarely ever played as khajiit so it might be a fun one to delve into for a video
what enb do you use?
I use a slightly modified version of Rudy ENB for Cathedral Weathers Zangdar's edit
Can there not be an armor that can be still worn in werewolf form ...I've been waiting for a mod but seems like it's blasphemy @ this point lol
Please make a combat mods video
I would have to say though, in my experience growl is too OP. Made my werewolf the most powerful being in the game at level 20.
Add wererats and wereboars and weredragons
Is Moonlight Tales Mini
On Xbox?
I'm only here because I want to know how I can become Lydia's forebearer and make her a werewolf (should she accept)
