Multiple cities over seeing specific areas - Winterhold in the North, Falkreath in the South, Riften in the East and Markarth in the West, and more - each conveying the cultural particularities of the slice of Skyrim they occupy, made the game’s setting feel like a fully-fledged fantasy nation rather than just a map to explore.Īnd while the main storyline wasn't the most dynamic, the myriad of side quests - from full-fat secondary stories of the Thieves' Guild, Dark Brotherhood and The Companions, to simple tasks - gave the expanse of Skyrim real character and depth. While the Witcher 3 felt like you were dropped in a county, Skyrim conveyed the feeling of moving across an entire country on a large continent. Suffice to say, with plenty of visual mods the game looks miles apart from its original form, yet still unmistakably Skyrim.
I’ve embedded the video below for your viewing pleasure. Now, YouTube channel Digital Dreams has taken this support and really run with it, giving Skyrim Special Edition a 4K makeover, a big boost in graphics and ray tracing, as well as hundreds of other mods. Steam Workshop support later made it trivially easy to access and use multiple mods in the game without breaking it. Skyrim’s predecessor Oblivion has mod support on the PC, and Skyrim came with it pretty much from the get-go. Mods for an Elder Scrolls game are nothing new. Plus: The Skryim mod that makes the game unplayable just got killed.I'm OK with The Elder Scrolls 6 release date being years away.Everything we know so far about The Elder Scrolls 6.And a new video showing off what happens to Skyrim when one sticks 500 mods and ray tracing on it reminds me just why it’s such a special game, and triggers quiet excitement for The Elder Scrolls 6. But Skyrim’s support for mods and all manner of tweaks have extended the game’s life massively. While prolific, in both its vanilla and 2016 Special Edition forms, Skyrim now looks rather long in the tooth, with a game engine that very much belies its age.
