  • HAPPY 11/11! Skyrim is now officially 12 years old, and sheesh, has the time flown. I just remember trying to play the game on my old laptop at the time, but safe to say, it didn't run that well. Fast forward a year or so and there I was, playing it like no tomorrow, absolutely hooked. I am so happy I finished the game before I found mods later in 2014, because after that... safe to say, it would've been hard. :D Share your fond memories about Skyrim in the comments, I'd love to read them! Also, your opinion on these new Skyrim mods :)

      I like when mods make a location more interesting. While I've not been a big marsh person, I'm warming up to it and the mushroom and Windstad mods would certainly help. And, the Argonian mod is definitely a nice touch. Berserkyr, would make a really interesting story. Perhaps the character didn't feel comfortable with the companions, but still felt 'different'. Or maybe they were rejected by the companions...Idk, a lot of rp with that, I think. :)

      That would be
      🥇Magpie
      🥈Bersekyr
      About Morthal, its surroudings, the marsh. I created a mod back in 2014 and, among many things, it adds a house in the swamp, close to Movarth's Lair. That being said...that place freaks me out a little bit. I usually don't spend much time in there. The same for Fallow Mire in Dragon Age Inquisition. You can take some dope shots in there with that amazing moon but...whatever I've got to do there, I make it fast!

    Oh yeah! I'm glad you featured Magpie Manor, do you watch Fabrith Darkstars' videos? She exclusively focuses on Player Homes, both in Skyrim and Fallout 4, she covered this release a few days ago, and I was blown away both by the video and in-game. Perfect for an Imperial transplant from Cyrodil such as myself, everything I would want in or on the fringes of the great city! The location isn't very popular so it probably won't conflict with any other home mods. It's in a decent area, along a river, and just slightly off of the road, so passersby won't interrupt my studies or solace. The only drawback is the file size, I had to download it two times because it takes a while and during that time the file got corrupted/interrupted and wouldn't install. I might try the 'evil' looking Serana mod just to change it up a bit, been using Seranaholic (v6 I think) for a while, but then what do I do for Valerica? Decisions, decisions... Great video as usual!

    • @BardsCollegeGraduate
      @BardsCollegeGraduate  Před 6 měsíci

    For me it was January 2014, when my wife bought me the PS3 version of the beast for my birthday. I didn't know anything about Tamriel or the Elders Scrolls back then. I fell instantly in love with this new lore. Few months later, I heard about mods and I watched CZcams videos on modding with ever growing envy.
    in December 2016, I finally decided to invest in a pc, so I could play Skyrim with a ton of mods. I bought every pc components I needed to built one in my living room, and I called it "The Skyrim machine".
    Nine years after my discovery of that famous jewel of a game, I still have the "skyrim machine". It's been upgraded since of course, but I still play Skyrim on it, Anniversary Edition though.
    I must say that the modding community and their mods nowadays are astonishingly amazing. Thanks to the community I really own my game, meaning I can make it any way I want it to be. To me, and I'm pretty sure, to a whole bunch of folks out there, Skyrim is and always will be unforgettable. Truly the best video game and the best community ever.

    I downloaded Magpie Manor around 2 weeks ago and I must say, visually it is probably the best player home mod I've ever seen.
    Although the style fits way more into the Witcher than into Skyrim, this house is such a beauty.
    The only thing that kept me from keeping it is that my FPS dropped heavy when being there and idk why. My PC handles a 700+ modlist but being there made my PC go brrrrr.

    • @BardsCollegeGraduate
      @BardsCollegeGraduate  Před 6 měsíci +1

    You know, this version of Serana at 10:50 is remarkably kinda scarry. She reminds me a lot of a curious thing. You guys know about the "sleeping paralisys demon" effect, that appears to be different according to country and culture, that people tend to see the same form deppending on region? In brazil the most commonly reported vision of this "demon" is the "Pisadeira" which is a tall pale woman with long cruly black hair and red eyes, appears to be sexy and beautiful but uppon close look is too scarry with distorted features, long nails and a cruel face, and she steps on the chest of the ones she haunts, hence her name that means somethign like "female steper" or "the woman who steps (on you)".
    I knwo it is silly but I had to tell it lol

    Winstad town is a blessed mod. I always wanted to improve the holds by adding a couple of towns for each one (a country with most holds with only one town beside the capital always felt empty to me), but Hjaalmarch was the land that get least attention from the "new town" modders.
    Winstad town not only is very good looking and simple, but it seems to integrate well with the Hearthfire manor, and is located in a place not so close to other towns (both vanilla and added by mods), giving it some use as a rest/trade-point, and in a place where a town could be build, on the coast and near the road that lead to Dawnstar.

    A lot of these are Really lovely! I especially like the Carriages and Winstad expanded - when I first started playing with Hearthfire I was a little disappointed at how little it actually added, so this definitely helps. The textures are also really easy on the eye. I've been following the creator doing the beast races (and it looks like they're going to be doing more mer than just the Orsimer!) since you showcased Project ja-Kha'jay and have never been disappointed by the skill and detail that goes into their work. One thing that I really wish was more utilized in player homes is an aspect that Legacy of the Dragonborn's safehouse has, where if you add food to specific containers the food appears somewhere nearby, like apples filling a bowl or a horker loaf appearing on a dinner plate. I had SUCH a kick out of that trying to figure out what all the foods were, and it was also a thing for other clutter - having a cabinet fill up with silver (or anything, really) as I added items just tickled something in my brain.

    I love these kinds of cozy homes, back in the days I loved Valkyrja Estate, it perfectly suited my needs, but this mod's not available anymore... I recently searched for equivalent homes, but unfortunately most of them are too smalll or don't have high resolution textures, so the details are always a bit "blurry".
    Last one I tried was "Maple Manor SSE", love the half-timbering style (makes me think of my country :p ), but maybe too much things inside, kinda lacks of space, and there's no racks for armors/weapons/special items.

    Good evening Bard!! It feels good to be back and I set to work on bingeing your past videos I missed. Cabbage ENB looks amazing but I gotta say I am curious to see how it'd run on my little PC. I built it over 10 years ago now for £600 (684 Euro) and so far the only thing I've had to upgrade is the memory with a new 1TB SSD. It still runs new AAA titles almost flawlessly with all the original parts but seeing your specs there made me do a double take. If a PC like yours is having trouble running ENBs then I kinda wanna see how well mine can run ENBs
    The Berserkyr mod seems like it'd be a good Companions Quest Patch seeing how shallow it was. I'm always on the lookout for mods that improve the Companions and College quests in good ways as usually it's just... eh... Definitely some good potential for this mod though
    JK's Solitude Outskirts looks amazing!! I have to admit you've changed me into a JK Fangirl and I'm not even a girl. Hannah would be mortified if I turned out to just suddenly be one though. Children of the hist is an interesting take seeing as I am a fan of Shavee and Scouts
    Dynamic Torch Idles would be great for immersion investment. Be a good addition for those Fairy Crop Circles and the Windstad mods. It'd be nice to have some company up there as I usually buy the land, build on it and never return ever again
    Wayrest Sellsword Set seems so interesting. Also don't think I didn't notice what you did with the music there. Great use of it, well done
    The Parralax mod seems cool. Sometimes it's nice to have a touch up of forgotten buildings that are different structures to the cities. But it'd be good to patch some of those holes finally. Honestly I'm not sure how the people of Skyrim ever stay warm
    The Mushroom grass seems cool. Certainly an interesting take and it'd be a good way to make Mushroom foraging harder. It reminds me of a Parasitic Mushroom I studied. Interesting topic really
    I personally use the Serana Re-Imagined SE mod by Froztee. There is even one for Valerica there also. It's a nice mesh of Lore friendly and beauty Without the usual tastelessness of at least 75% of the Skyrim mods being Skimpy. Also I personally hated the glowing sun eyes they gave Vampires so I also got a mod that reverts them to the Blood red they used to be. So much better. Argonians and Khajiit also got a unique variant of eyes for vampirism which vanished also with the addition of the awful Sun Eyes
    Magpie Manor actually seems really grand and pretty!! It's rare I take a shining to custom made Player Homes but this one looks amazing. A little too focused on cramming everything in perhaps but it'd look super nice to retire in and start my shop there. But for now I'm still content with my Falkreath house. Something about the Lake view and the trees and the small stone hill next to it
