- Once more, into the breach. Yes, we've played Skyrim a million times, but today I am telling you about the most impressive mod pack I've ever experienced in my entire time playing this game. From new combat to even a paraglider, this is the Nolvus experience.

I'm 47 years old and playing Skyrim for the first time. I'm absolutely loving it. Can't believe I waited so long to play it.😁
I'm 48 and have been playing since the beginning, welcome to the family 😊
Eh, I'm 42, tried it several times, and it never took.
We have such shit to play today, so I may give it another go.
It's honestly amazing what they were able to accomplish in 2011 with only 100 people. Despite the many flaws of Skyrim, it's still one of my favorite games that I go back to once in a while. Less so now due to new games and Bethesda stuffing it with Microtransactions, but I got like 5 different characters to play through currently so if I'm bored I know what I can do.
You lucky bastard... To experience it for the first time again..
@@nathannininger2498 Exactly what I was thinking. What I'd give to play Skyrim for the first time again...
Thanks a lot for this Nolvus featuring, i'm honored!
How has this comment gone unnoticed. Thank you for the Mod Pack, aside from a few crashes here and there your mod pack has been amazing!
This is incredible - would love for this to be done for the Skyrim VR version (if it's not already compatible and, of course, you are up for the challenge/are interested).
I can get only an average of 60 fps and less than that in cities with Nolvus with my 4070, it's gonna be near impossible to run this looking this good on vr unless maybe FSR 3 frame gen is used
Downloaded your modpack a couple of days ago, what you've put together is incredible!
I started my first skyrim run early December 2023. Now Jan 2 im clocking in at 102 hrs. Such a fun, amazing and atmospheric game, and yes I've been playing it Vanilla!
If you have never played it then I would say vanilla is absolutely the way. You might be late to the party but I would assume you will replay just like the rest of us!
I installed Nolvus while waiting for Starfield to release. I am blown away by how good it is. I ended up playing more Skyrim than Starfield. It is a must try if you're able to run it
Yup unfortunately I cannot run it. My pc is melting just by me looking at vids of it lol
@Ecthelion3918 They have a few different mod packs to install and give pc requirements for each. I think the balls to the wall version calls for a 4090, but they have performance packs that just change game play and do lighter tweaks to visuals
Same I can't go back to starfield now. lol
i personally used it to find new mods for my list you don't need all the mods on there@@Ecthelion3918
Not a nolvus guy but i second this notion lol
The cycle that never ends.
Install it, mod it, play it and uninstall it. It just works 😂
I've never uninstalled skyrim, I've only ever taken a break (longest was 6 months) and play for another 500hrs in a single save file then take a break again
This exactly, I tried again, remembered why I stopped playing, and just uninstalled it to replay Dragon's Dogma again, which aged like fine wine might I add. I can't wait for DD2, it's going to be spectacular.
Never uninstalled it maybe once , I’ll be in the middle of a play through and already have an urge to restart it after finding out more mods. Definitely a cycle
you forgot install it mod it until it crash, unplayable, uninstall, cleaning mod reinstall again lol
i put 10,000 in this game within the last decade and i have taken a year off from playing it and it still beacons me like no other, currently i'm playing FO4, but i will admit i still love skyrim way more.
Not to get too personal, but Skyrim is my comfort game. I’m recovering from a surgery atm and can’t go into work, so I’ve been laying down playing Skyrim and it’s been amazing. I’ve got some mods installed on my PS5, and on my PC I’m playing a modpack with over 1,000. The game is just something special.
I hope Bethesda can pull it off again with TES6
Yea same, last year I had several spinal fusions from a very very bad fall and couldn’t move for about 5 months, Skyrim on steam deck got me through that
Wait, Skyrim has mods on PS5!? Are they robust are very minimal? I don’t PC game, but I got to kinda see what it was like playing Fallout 4 w mods on Xbox & loved it. Doubt I’d have played through it without the mods though
@@coreyveggies9894 Bethesda recently renamed them to “creations,” but yes. I’ve got a few mods that improve the lighting, mesh of objects and some that just improve gameplay and such. Maybe like 25 total. Just click on the creations tab and make sure you aren’t looking at the paid mods!
Enjoy your Skyrim and get better 😄💪
😂😂😂😂😂😂 ☠️ 🔫
What always draws me back to Skyrim is Whiterun and it’s massive beautiful fields. It feels like Rohan from LOTR. And of course solitude feels like Gondor. My main home in Skyrim is Whiterun & my character is married to Lydia lol 😂. The Dawnguard heavy armor is a bonus for me!
I need the civil war and magic to have a massive overhaul
Buy the house in Whiterun, adopt a couple homeless kids, marry an orc, and I'm a happy camper.
MATTY BLINK TWICE IF TODD HOWARD IS HOLDING YOUR FAMILY HOSTAGE
Lol good one
😂
Or...perhaps Skyrim is just THAT good... well waddayaknow...
Nolvus is actually genuinelly just that good, this mod pack specifically is freaking amazing.
@@The.Dark.Dominion. no,skyrim is an empty dull husk,its the fact it can be extremly modded that makes it good
Skyrim moddings came so far in such a short amount of time. I remember SkySA being released and that was seen as revolutionary. Now we have MCO which is more advanced and we can download entire mod packs with one click. Only issues I have with NOVLUS is the balancing issues with the stances and most of the new armor sets. Weapons like swords (especially great swords) feel way more stronger than the other weapons in their respective one/two handed classes because of the sheer speed which you can swing in certain stances. Greats swords just feel ridiculously OP compared to other two handed weapons because of Stance 2 animation set.
Thank you for covering this, I’ve been modding for years and stumbled upon nolvus and it seems like really balanced out skyrim. I’ve been hooked since couple months ago.
I'm really interested In this. What is the companion system like? Companions are like my favorite part of rpgs. Maybe romance but nothing brutal. Just want to be immersed
@@NetworkError455 Try Serana dialog Add on
There's also Requiem modlists, if you want something more challenging like Wildlander, Arkay's commandments, Do Not Go Gentle, etc... really good lists.
I can also recommend Septimus! Currently in the process of installing Gate To Sovngarde because it works with shaders rather than ENB (better optimization for lower end PCs), and because it is fully compatible with the latest Skyrim AE update.
@@metasamsara Wasn't Septimus removed from Wabbajack?
@@celticfrost86 idk i didn't keep up lately with modlists I just resubbed to nexus premium today ^^ haven't modded skyrim in a few months.
I actually just started a new oblivion play through. With about 400 mods. They have a big modpack called rebirth plus. It is definitely worth checking out.
I'm replaying on VR with some QOL mods. It feels like playing it for the very first time again.
Yesssiiiirr
me too, Skyrim in VR is amazing (well as long as you take the time to mod it first). When I first got to Whiterun I just went into the Bannered Mare, pulled up a bench in real life, and sat on my seat in VR to match and just took in the atmosphere, it was incredible.
I just did yet another play of Skyrim myself. I tried a mod pack, but I didn't like it so I made my own mod list. I ended up with over 700 mods, but I was SUPER happy with how it all worked. I found myself playing in third person as well, and it was AMAZING! The improved combat, animations, and visuals were just great. I'm sure at some point in 2024 I'll be loading up Skyrim again! :P
It's always better to simply put in the time to figure out the exact mods you want. After the initial setup it is an easy matter of maintenance with occasional updates or adding another mod here and there.
I have always been fundamentally opposed to mod packs, especially considering how incredibly easy it is to mod.
In my experience, most people that use mod packs are just scared of modding. In the beginning of the video Matty mentions having issues with 50-100 mods and from my perspective I cannot even imagine what someone would be doing to have issues with so few mods.
I have an entry level computer and I can easily run over 500 mods, many of which are very large. I have NEVER had an issue with save files or CTDs. In the very rare occasion of a conflict, I can typically resolve it in a couple of minutes.
The problem with this is that you'll have to play through the entire game to know if the modlist works without issues. If you're unlucky, the game crashes or some other issue occurs mid-playthrough. When using a mod collection like Nolvus or any other collection from Nexus, you'll know it's been well tested and confirmed to work on a playthrough (at least for the well known, high rated collections).
@@StationaryEarth Nobody wants to waste time to learn and do this crap, is it that hard to understand? Why on anybody on earth would be against a simple, harmless thing like mod packs is beyond me...
@@rolf1819 It is profoundly difficult to understand why anyone would be upset by the thought of having to learn something that is so simple to do.
Are you like that with everything in your life?
If modding is crap anyway, why waste your time even with a mod pack? Also, if you have so little time to spare that you can't take 45 minutes to learn the fundamentals of modding you probably shouldn't be playing games to begin with. Mod managers basically do everything for you.
Why on earth were you are railing as though I was advocating for violence against mod packs or their compilers. Are you okay? Do you need some help? It is absolutely better to do it yourself.
Mod packs make the game into what someone else wants, not what the player would otherwise build if given the option on their own to choose individual mods. I just want the player to have the most personalized experience possible. I can't even imagine why someone would not want a completely tailored experience when it is at their very fingertips to achieve.
@@StationaryEarth bc people have a life dude, nobody cares about ur subjective feeling about the matter
The Vr aspect adds a whole other layer as well. Altermage/ Monk combo with the right mods has been so much fun. I've been addicted all over again.
Skyrim VR blew my mind!
I remember November 11th 2011 literally as if it was yesterday, I don't know the exact total spanning between various 360 releases an Xbox One release and various PC versions that I have had over the years. But it's safe to say that I've spent north of 3 or 4000 hours in Skyrim. Recently I had taken my longest hiatus, but I begun getting the itch again, mainly from listening to the soundtrack while working, Long story short though, you have 100% convinced me to invest the time into starting up another file using this modpack thanks bro❤❤❤😎😬
This video popped up at the right time. I've been thinking about playing Skyrim again. This mod pack makes me wanna play it even more
This may sound crazy for this channel, but I haven't played Skyrim since it was released originally. @MrMattyPlays you have me convinced that I should reinstall it and give this mod a go!
I just started another playthrough, this time on my Xbox X (previously played on my PS), using mods, i'm experiencing a brand new game. While not to This level, it's amazing the difference now. Different characters, maps, graphics, UI, all that. It's truly like a new game. Even voice acting for Lydia lol. And the character overhauls are.... nice. LOL
So are there Mods available for Skyrim in Series X? If so, what version do I need to buy to try those?
@@mattpenix8438 either special, legendary or anniversary edition. Between the series X or ps5 I recommend playing on the X. There’s way more mods to choose from
@@mattpenix8438 Yes there are. I had the special edition and upgraded to the Anniversary Edition.
This looks cool and all but the fear of uninstalling my current setup and getting something else to work is too real 😅
Nolvus uses a completely separate installation of Skyrim (assuming you have the Steam version), so you can have both installed at the same time
@mahominishiyama124 if what you say is true, then perhaps there's hope. Im not gunna pretend I know exactly what you said, but thanks for the info.
I was just thinking yesterday that I wanted to play some Skyrim again but I wanted something different for combat. This is perfect timing for me!
I’ve been using the eldergleam mod pack. It takes the animation and visual upgrades but stays true to vanilla Skyrim, allowing it to be very compatible with other mods you may want to manually install
I played the low-spec version of Nolvus 5 over the course of 5 months in 2023. It was basically my GOTY, the pack is so well put together.
new mod for skyrim that completely changes the way the camera/movement works is 'True Directional Movement', makes it feel like a modern game whilst not taking anything away from the vanilla experience
I’ll never escape Skyrim, it’s a masterpiece , I’ll keep buying it
And that's why we get shit piles like 76 and starfield
Was it really though? Bad wiriting bad combat horrible magic system. The only thing it had was atmosphere.
If that's a masterpiece than I'm convinced it's the only game you've ever played. It is boring generic slop with some of the worst combat known to man. This is why we got starfield next people like you call shit games like Skyrim a masterpiece
Have you bought it for your refrigerator yet?
I’ll keep buying trash* there fixed it.
Multiple 1-second stutters, traversal and combat, throughout the video. For eaxample, 0:56, 2:52, 4:27, 5:18, 5:22. Is it RUclips's issue, recording software problem or the game actually stutters that badly?
Nolvus is notorious for needing a beefy pc to run it. It's probably the most strain for any pc of any mod list. There's also almost 400 gb of mods lol.
Started Nolvus a few months ago. It's amazing. I don't have to play stealthy archer and I'm so happy. The graphics are truly amazing too.
I usually end up playing skyrim about once a year as well, I've been heavy into modding for years. As a programmer sometimes I just get the itch to spend a week putting together a 400-500 mod list and really diving into the weeds to figure it out and get "the perfect" setup.
Wasn't really feeling the modding time but after playing Elden Ring was in the mood for some Skyrim. Just tried this auto installer out and OMG. This is absolutely crazy, I don't recognize my skyrim, my son doesn't recognize my skyrim. My wife who has watched me play Skyrim for years thought I was still playing Elden Ring. Absolutely blown away by this, can't recommend it enough.
I highly recommend the Wildlander modpack if you want something with more challenge. It is based on Requiem, which intimidates some but it’s really not bad once you get started. 0 crashes for me, incredibly stable and it looks so nice
I've been loving Wildlander, it was my first experience with Requiem. After I actually beat some endgame content I also want to try Arkay's Commandments or Lalaland cause I've heard they're good and introduce a new leveling/XP system.
A fellow wildlander enjoyer.
Imo, that modlist (or requiem in general) improved half of skyrims flaws, and made it much better, to play.
Wildlander is like how the game should have always been. Its crazy how good it is
Novus is outstanding and a worthy way to play Skyrim
Hopping back into Skyrim after almost 7 years of binging it on my old ps3 gives such an amazing feeling.
Nolvus collection is amazing. It requires quite a powerful machine to run it but if you have one and love Skyrim now is the time to give it a try. I love it, every corner of the map feels like a new location with this collection. Such a refreshing experience it gives to the old game. Feels like a new game.
... and just when I thought I left skyrim-
Well, time to play Skyrim affer I finish Enderal (incredible mod btw.)
"Why you need to play skyrim in 2024" - Because starfield is objectively a bad game...
Xbots coming for you
I think 90% of the game is inherently good. But it's just the 10% that is bad is the most impactful. The amount of loads is just too many and it really hurts the rest of the game. If starfield was more fluent then it would help everything else
@@ryanyoung752590 percent um no 90 percent bad 10 percent tiny ok
Even when the video doesn't mention starfield ppl still do.
"Stop! It's already dead!" 😅
I've been considering starting a new playthrough of Skyrim lately and this mod pack looks like a really good excuse to actually take the plunge again. I'm not sure how well my PV will handle it, but it definitely looks enough like a 'new experience' to be worth fiddling around with to make it happen. I wasn't sure what to think of the mod packs when they first came out, but stuff like this shows just how handy they can actually be!
That first clip of melee gameplay you showed in the beginning of this video made me never want to play Skyrim again, actually.
When Starfield begins to catch up to this level of mod investment, us patient, mature, steady people will not judge. We won't say anything but "hey, welcome back! Knew I'd see you again!" 😅 Lolol
I’ve not bought Starfield yet after buying Skyrim 4 times since 2011. but I hope you’re right and I’ll gladly buy it at that point or even half as far as Skyrim is at this point.
@@TheBbrstanggt
All things considered, I start to wonder if a game can win GOTY after it's initial release, with Skyrim being the perfect example of the implied possibilities.
Unfortunately a lot of big modders are giving up on the game already. I don’t think it will have nearly the support of Skyrim
@@oliverkick915 That just means new blood will become the "big modders" for Starfield. They've already got mods that do things like building your own space station before the creation kit's been released.
@@StygianIkazuchi
Bingo. Give it time
After Playing Starfield all I wanted to do was give Fallout and Skyrim a shot on PC, and in the last few weeks cause its been a couple of years since I played Skyrim on console. These new mods are something else. It like a new game. Enjoying way more than ever or I ever did on starfield.
I’m 64 years old and I’m playing Skyrim right now for this year. I play on ps3. I’ve been playing through as a vampire. I can’t go to a town without being attacked even at night. I’ve only found one person that I was able to bite his neck but I didn’t cure my vampirism before the blood I feed on wore off. So now I’m clearing out caves and forts.
Damn Im 50 years old and have been playing Skyrim for at least 5-7 years now, and Im still playing today as a testament to one of the best open world role playing games ever.
Hows tht fps doin i see the stutters in ur gameplay
He addresses it in the video. Why comment if you didn’t watch the whole thing
Is it just me or does every clip of the modpack shown look stuttery and janky as hell lol
He says in the video how his performance was hindered by all the mods, even with a beastly PC, he struggled lol.
So you need next level PC to run this smoothly
@@onewithstache3639 I’m guessing, all I have is an Xbox 😂
Yeah my own Skyrim collection was lost when my drive broke. Nolvus was an upgrade on what I had, virtually the same choices with one or two I didn't need to activate. Love it. Seasonal, LotD, combat upgrades, wide choice of apparel, loads of followers, some of the best quest mods, all the additional villages and towns, Anniversary friendly, survival optional (I hate it, but realize it is a must for others). The one thing I would change is the clothing choice, it's a bit skimpy sometimes and I do miss the classic, updated immersive armor mod, I may look into adding that back in, as I know it used to be part of the pack. Wabbajack's Lost Legacy and Elysium Remastered will be preferred by some and are very similar. All three are valid softcore choices for those of us who don't want to reload every minute of our precious time. Incidentally I love BG3 and even Starfield too. Had a blast with all three of these recently.
It’s hard to believe that Skyrim came out in 2011 and his still Skyrim fans out there to this day
Btw, if you want better perfomance, make sure you use the upscaler from that one modder guy. While i do use the ARRRR version of his mod (because hell no way am i paying for version for more compatibility), it comes with enb compat. But anyway, it boosts your perfomance by a lot. Theres also another one that pops in borderless etc.
Which upscaler?
@@lordspamify the one widely spread on nexus. It's the thing that adds dlss, fsr etc
For me the most immersive combination is alternate start, hunter and loot moods, rich merchants and survival.
skyrim has devolved for me into an endless cycle of starting a new game, going to whiterun and starting a new game again but with different equipment, going to whiterun, and starting over again
One addendum: If you’re on PC
The best platform of course
“Why I can’t play Skyrim in 2024” Cause after playing dragon’s dogma I find it more fun than Skyrim & am looking forward to Dragon’s Dogma 2
The compass disappearing is probably because you pressed x mistakenly. That toggles that portion of the ui. You can do the same with the other parts too.
Only played Skyrim for 15 or so hours last year and loved it but got distracted by other things.
Just redownloaded it yesterday with Nolvus.
They've made a less taxing "Redux" version of the mod or various performance settings to choose from.
I only played 15 minutes of the intro but so far it looks great.
Playing Skyrim again definitely works to rinse away the weird taste of nothing Starfield would give us
Not sure if it’s possible, but I would love to see something like this on Xbox. If not a mod installer type manager, at least bundles or mod lists that are tested, work, and ready to go. Even with some RUclipsrs doing mod lists, it’s a heavy lift and doesn’t always work.
Would not be possible, Nolvus Skyrim takes up waaaay too much space…it’s literally 2000+ mods
The Modswell RUclips channel and r/SkyrimModsXbox have a bunch of tested modlists.
So funny that you put this out, just started a new playthrough yesterday 🤣
Big gamer here. I hated skyrim when I was 15. I was too young to get it. Tried it again on PC when I bought my PC for college and loved it and played 140 hours of the game. Was a vampire lord, fell in love with Serena, had all the houses, built my own house with an armoury. Loved it. Truly best game ever, despite the combat being the worst in any game possible. So I want to play it again on my xbox seres x or PS5 as my PC has broken and today I have taken it finally to bits to sell for spares and repairs. Sad day. But will I be able to play it again after all the fond memories. I know it will feel a grind to go to the grey beards again and get my beloved Serena back. How do I make this game feel as fresh as day one?
Was thinking about diving back in and this was the push I needed lol
It's worth it.
The problem with Nolvus is the installation. You either pay for Nexus mod Premium to have automatic downloads or you will have to manually click yes on each mod it installs.
Yeah Premium is basically required
Came back to this vid to say thank you Matty for putting me on this mod pack, it’s pretty incredible wow
I run forgotten dungeons, more bandit camps, populated Skyrim, OBIS, madmen of the reach and Skyrim at War for content
Npc wise I have the most popular mod with improved AI and quest packs and tavern idles. I’m a realist so I do advanced follower overhaul to caravan about as well.
But I think the coolest mod this year is the advanced ai framework. It’s got two content modules that start active competition between factions. Currently restricted to the reach, but includes capturing resource nodes and spawn points for reinforcement, like mines and camp. Like Skyrim at war, you’re gonna want get the corpse clearing mod…it’s pretty sick. And just friggin interesting to watch and participate in too. I even hit a few points to balance things out when it looked like one of the factions was starting to steam roll.
Massive potential there.
Bethesda broke all my mods… I’m good
That looks cool Matty but damn that framerate is horrific. What are you running for PC hardware?
He said he was running it on a 3080. I just wonder what settings he applied and if he optimised his Nvidia settings for Skyrim because I use a 3070 on ultra with performance LODs and I get a steady 30fps outside except in The Rift.
@@JackCooper243 Hmm interesting. It looks like he could also be running out of vram, especially if he's using a 10GB model although it's hard to say.
I may have to benchmark it on some of my hardware and pinpoint what it could be.
@@TerraWare The max graphics settings version basically requires 32GB of RAM, but the installer does have performance options and suggestions on increasing performance.
Nolvus is the best modpack ever created. You can even use the pack as a base to build off of. I’ve got 3147 mods in my nolvus list. There’s so much content in nolvus v5 off the rip.
I'm literally in the process of building a computer JUST to play this modpack. I'm extremely excited
I would play IF THEY DIDNT UPDATE A 8 YEAR OLD GAME AND BREAK ALL MY MODS
Nolvus uses the downgrade patcher to return the game to return it to pre-AE while keeping the AE content, and it copies your Skyrim files to a new location so updates can't mess up an existing Nolvus install.
I finally played through Skyrim about a month ago for the FIRST TIME. Was a great experience for the most part, outside of having to reload old saves all the time from missions bugging out. I can finally understand how its kept all its relevance for so long now though.
Last time I played Skyrim (SSE), I had EnB-mods installed, and played in ‘survival-mode’. Basically no fast-travel (except wagons), backpack with tent and living off the land. Getting a horse and use it for ‘fast-travel’. Matty likes 2Handed sword, while I like playing as an archer.
I’m 94 years old. I’ve been playing Skyrim since I was 19. I was never the same again.
This looks so goofy
Matty, can you share your entire load order? I HATE messing around with it, please help me avoid that and love the game more than ever :)
You don’t need a mod list that’s the entire point of collections. Just click a few buttons and you’re done.
Matty's pronunciation of "pugilist" making me chuckle almost as much as his previous pronunciation of "quadruped".
I downloading Nolvus a few month ago and i love it. I actually bought Starfield (Boring game) and i barely touch it. I have very few PC skills and even i got Nolvus downloaded and working great. I do have a high PC, so make sure your PC can handle it! I'm running it on a RTX 4090. But it defiantly turns it to a completely different game.
Yeah, I've been playing this for months. I couldn't enjoy Starfield because of it. It truly highlights how so many fun things can be packed into a single gaming experience.
I have to say, I am so glad this mudpack is getting the attention it deserves, I installed it a little over two weeks ago and have been playing it almost non stop. Mad respect to vektor9999 for putting together an extremely stable modernisation of Skyrim (and of course all the authors of all the individual mods).
How is it for crashes especially on big save files?
@@da_ocsta1452 It is extremely stable, have had only 2 or 3 crashes in the entire period which I suspect are not at all list related since even unmodded Skyrim has random crashes. The 1990's called me and asked for their game engine back :P
I appreciate this video giving the modded world of Bethesda games love. This is the sole reason I still play Fallout 3, NV, 4, Oblivion, Skyrim. It's absolutely insane if you think about it. You can literally implement new incredible game mechanics with thousands to choose from and customize your game, remove issues you have that hamper your experience. It's just amazing and I'm so thankful for Nolvus, Wabbajack and the whole modding community for all their work. One of my favorite things about gaming and I hope it pulls more people into the modding world.
What is your PC Spec's? So, I can get a rough idea on what PC parts to get in order to play the games you mentioned above with mods. Right now I'm CPU limited 4790k + 16GB RAM + 1080ti
If you want a completly new experience without hundreds of mods? Enderal Forgotten Stories. It blows asway Skyrim gameplay despite being based on Skyrim.
Okay juicehead
Your not usually click batey but this is like the third time you did this. You need to specify its for PC in the title. I was expecting to be excited just to not have access cuz I play on Xbox. Not everybody play PC. Your better then this. I've been watching since the Fallout 4 hype back in the day. Please specify in the future.
Bro mods on console are a new thing, and honestly will never be as good as PC mods, get over it
You mentioned your compass disappearing… this happened to me a few times and i had to reload to fix. then i found out there’s actually a button that makes it turn on/off. I believe it is the X key, could be wrong double check the controls list if you have this issue.
Also, can’t believe Matty didn’t even mention the winterhold overhaul!
It kinda looks awful though? Lol
There's objectively nothing awful looking about it. You just don't like it
@@MyNindo2000 It "objectively" has extremely choppy animation and crazy bad framerate drops. Vanilla Skyrim looks beautiful in comparison. BUT if Matty says it's fun I believe him.
@@TheDiamondSea Considering that vanilla doesn't have half as many animations, that's a false equivalence. Bad framerate drops. Get a stronger rig to improve it. Nolvus is making vast improvements across the board on the game as a whole, plus adding new things. It's working with a hell of a lot more than vanilla skyrim. In general, it's objectively better looking than vanilla and plays better due to what's possible with nolvus.
@@MyNindo2000 I'm only reacting to what I see on this video. If it looks good on your system, good for you.
I'm still waiting to get my VR controller fixed. Skyrim VR with mods is... f'ing life changing man!
I got all my skills on Legendary. I am having fun with it on Switch
I'm an Xbox player, so I can't get Nolvus, but the pack is an inspiration for me. I've only got less than 1/10 the amount of mods on Nolvus, and I still think I have a next-gen Skyrim on console.
I have been playing Skyrim on and off since release, and earlier today I had the quest to find a shield for the Jarl of Markarth, and for maybe the second time ever I had to go to a tower and a Hag that was captive that then helped me through the quest so she could get revenge on her sister. The last time I didn't help her (if I have done it before, It would have been many years ago) and just went solo. It was such an interesting quest being helped by a hag.....love this game, and no mods, I'm playing on the switch.
I got Skyrim day one, even got the collectors edition with all its goodies.
Played it religiously for years then had times I just didn't play but always went back for a play through of 5.
I downloaded Starfield day 1.
Played it for 30min or so and decided it wasn't for me.
Downloaded Skyrim again 😂
I've got a laptop that isn't powerful enough for this mod pack. Something quite similar tho is a collection called immersive and pure. Very easy install and I'm really enjoying it.
I searched for "skyrim review" and I'm pretty sure Matty has reviewed it every year since it cane out
Mantella mod is a good reason to get back into skyrim. You can legit roleplay and bend the world with your voice. Talking to characters and sowing descent etc. chat gpt makes this game a true rpg sandbox. I play vr and it works great
Absolutely! Nolvus Mod Pack has made me Replay Skyrim and it took a Perfect game from 12 years ago and made it modern again. 😎
I downloaded nolvus on New Year’s Eve. Got to play it in the first hour of the new year.
Looks better then what 6 will probably be like
I installed Nolvus the other day, and I was really sceptical about the Dark Souls / Elden Ringy / JARPG stuff - due to not being a fan. I'm really liking it, and it's insanely stable. 12 hours in, zero crashes, no issues with steam updating Skyrim and breaking it.
The only gripe I've got is that there's a couple of other mods I want with it, but I can't get them to work with it.
I love the sense of discovery. Having to interact with NPC's to learn their name or somehow getting lost in Bleka Falls barrow - a place I've been to about a million times
I get the hype for Nolvus (many of the mods used I have in my own list) but I like building my own modlist too much to even consider downloading it 🤣
Not everyone has a pc to mod Skyrim
You can mod on Playstation. No upgrades required.
@@aposterioriunum4782 only certain mods not all mods
Thanks Matty, I've been looking for a reason for another "1 last play" of Skyrim. Hopefully I'll finish it this time by being able to get the modding done so quick!
I had Skyrim on an old Playstation and haven't played it in years!! This video convinced me to dive back in, and just happens to be on sale on Steam right now for $10! Big W. Thank you
I recently started playing it again on my PC, I LOVE IT!!! Never gets old!!!
I am playing survival mode for the first time, and I love it. I'm I the only one who doesn't like playing with mods, though? Like they don't suck and I get it. They are just not for me, really. Anyway, between this BG3 and oblivion. I would say I'm not paying for a new game for months or a year. Lol😅
One thing I hope Elder Scrolls 6 does is vastly improve the combat from previous titles. Even though most of these modlists/packs go a bit over the top when it comes to combat animations (the somersaults), they do shed light on the fact that combat in ES needs a change. Hopefully Bethesda fully realizes this and embraces the risks it takes to change things up a bit.
Loving Starfield, Skyrim, and Fallout 4
And now we have the Fallout tv show and Fallout 4 next gen update coming this year
It’s a great time to be a Bethesda fan
I feel like many people are sleeping on how objectively amazing skyrim VR is nowadays, Nolvus is good and beautiful but if you have a decent PC the Skyrim VR minimalistic overhaul is like a absolutely dream.
I have a theory that the main character in Skyrim is The Dedric Prince of Smithing and Enchanting but hasn't ascended yet.
And that the reason that all the gods favor him is because they know that one day he will grow up to become one of them and would rather be on his good side once he ascends so they treat him good while he is still in mortal form.
My logic is that while he decent at other skills he can literally create god tier weapons that are strong enough to one shot lesser deities like Kaarstag and the Ebony Warrior.
