I wanna say thank you for the content for you provide in finding/using these mods and presenting them to us. As a person that has played since release of skyrim over the course of starting with console and eventually switching to PC, this game always surprises me. The mods you seek out for us has also sparked more life/interest in my play throughs and I can't say thank you enough for that. I'm very happy to have discovered your channel.
I also recommend immersive laundry. Which adds several setpieces of clothing being hung dry or wash basins around Skyrim. All are also related to their respective locations, fur armor in bandit camps, or citizen clothing in towns.
Can't say for graphics, but I can at least say it looks like NordicUI and CGO - Combat Gameplay Overhaul (which requires Nemesis, a platform for new animations, like the FNIS of old)
All of the paper map mods available right now are great. Caro Tuts' map is on another level, though. I hope she eventually makes maps for all the other areas as well.
I can say the carriage stops of skyrim is highly compatible with almost any mod out there, and I put that mod in category 1 under master files, you'll have no problems whatsoever.
Hey man great video. Have you tried the mod called "Real Estate"? It lets you buy a majority of the properties in skyrim se. For example, Maven blackbriar's house and brewery. Or nazeem's farm house. You can also buy shops, blacksmith workshops, etc. Then you can collect rent from them. Then there's immersive recruitment. You can hire NPC's to populate your empty houses and have various jobs like bard, wizard, etc. There's also immersive laundry which I find pretty good.
Love seeing a quality kiwi channel in the mix, kia kaha! Edit: Paper maps for the win! Literally the first thing I modded, after the mental movement speeds. Stuff immersion-breaking, world-shrinking, imagination-stunting, low-poly fugly 3d maps. Admire the 3d in the game-space dummy!
Thanks for your content - it helped me get into modding skyrim relatively recently. I am currently using a mod collection called Constellations, which contains over 1100 mods, and is lots of fun. It includes a lot of rebablancing, and the option for perma-death. It's worth a look, even if only for inspiration for other immersive mods.
Thanks for suggesting carriages stops. Nice lightweight alternative to the usual carriage mods! Battle aftermath looks great. Unfortunately, people report fps drops.
Honed Metal was just what I was looking for the other day when I was doing a Skooma Addict to Bard run. I had to craft my own sword and was like "Ugh why isn't there a mod that makes this feel more immersive? I'm fresh drug addict and non-heroic type. I should be able to pay to craft what I need!" also thought about it with literally any Inn Patron with Live another Life that unless one is going to train in blacksmithing getting a weapon should be more than just buying it. Really suits it all perfectly!
Yep. I use it for characters where it doesn’t make sense that they would be blacksmiths . Like my current pure mage who is only allowed to wear robes and use staffs or daggers for weapons. Some other things I like are NFF for followers, you can tell your followers to sell stuff for you. And Imperial Mail let’s your mail items to different locations. It all good for role playing.
I absolutely love your videos, man! Every time I see a new one I click immediately 🤓 Is there a mod that you have installed for the glossy wet look when it rains? I’ve tried installing much for that but none of them look the way that yours do unfortunately :(
How do you make a collision for small trees when you walk around them? I know about this in ENB for Grass. So are these small trees a replacer for grass?
Almost every immersive mod stars with immersive in the title. Good mods but it can get annoying seeing the same name in the title repeat multiple times.
What is far more annoying to me is this abused term "true RPG." This term has as almost as many meanings as there are players. Unless we define what we mean by "true RPG" it means nothing. Paper maps and fallen trees do not make a game a "true RPG" in my book.
what are your PC specs out of curiosity? Also Im very bad at modding Skyrim or any game in fact, but I would like to make mine be exactly like yours. Best modding of skyrim Ive seen yet. Do you have a tutorial of some kind to make a copy past version of your Skyrim?
I really like the whole idea behind Immersive World Encounters but unfortunately, it just doesn't work with Immersive Patrols and Populated Skyrim :( Those two cover what IWE, Immersive Civil War, and Battle Aftermath try to do but at such a bigger scale that I can't help myself but keep them installed for every playthrough.
There is a mod series you could have included. Siberpunk on Nexus is creating a series called Environs that makes slight changes to marked and unmarked locations in the world that depend on your progression in certain quests. One example is their most recent mod called Kolskeggr that changes the state Kolskeggr Mine is in depending on your progress in the quest for it. Before you start the quest it shows Kolskeggr Mine burned down and in ruins, then once you get the quest and wipe out the Forsworn people will come back and start rebuilding, after some time it will be fully repaired. It's amazing and I love how it makes Skyrim feel more alive and how it makes it feel like your actions have meaning in the world.
Does anyone have an animation they recommend for sprinting with a spell equipped? I've tried YY Mystic knight, smooth magic casting, magic casting animation overhaul, and goetia animations and they all have some form of awkward waving/flapping of the left hand when sprinting. Any ideas?
Nice video, probably will use bunch of these mods XD, i wanted to asked you as you know a lot about modding, out of the sudden in my Quest tab, some quests have their letters replaced by squares instead of actual letters, but its not all of the quests, and its just that and a few enemies, do you know how to fix this? If you did it would be greatly appreciated
I never liked the 3D map, so the paper map is a winner for me. Coin, Dirt and Blood, Battle Aftermath, Carriages, actually most of the mods in this list equally good. I'd have to think about Trees; a lot of the fun is when it's difficult to get from one place to another. So, using that logic maybe I wouldn't want Carriages.
Wow, actual immersion-related mods rather than game-rending mechanics mods being touted as immersion mods. The fact this was the 6th result under "Skyrim Immersion Mods" is kinda frustrating, this should be #1!
Me: I've finally done it! I finally have installed enough mods to make Skyrim the most immersive, and perfect gaming experience possible. New mod: Nope. Me: Damn it!
I wont play without Honed Metal anymore. It allows more freedom in my builds because you no longer have to have smithing or enchanting.. Put those points in something else..
You should check out Experience by Z4x. EXCELLENT mod. It changes the leveling system so that your skills no longer affect your overall character level. Instead, skills level independently and receive caps based on your character level for balance. You level up your character by earning experience points from doing things like finding locations, clearing dungeons, questing, kills, etc. The experience rewards are also well scaled. As an example, clearing a dwemer ruin or a large nordic crypt is worth more experience points than clearing a simple cave so you get a fair reward for what you did. It's taking the vanilla game's fast, casual leveling system and making it feel like a better fit in an RPG without throwing out the intended streamlining. I think it makes a big difference as an RPG element.
Honed Metal is an essential mod for any Skyrim player. Otherwise, you're going to have to craft or use console commands for 90% of the weapon and armor mods out there.
Health bars, floating cameras behind you, and quest markers, yeah that really makes it 'immersive'. keep saying that word, dude. And I'm glad we can't just get crafting/enchanting done at the beginning. The game is way too easy as it is and finding a good challenging/leveling mod is tough to find.
0:23 mods like this, OBIS, Immersive wenches etc (basicaly mods that add new random NPCs and events) can and will cause CTD. so no, in my opinion mods like this should not be in any modlist, unless you want to deal with uninstalling mid game, cleaning save files and other shenanigans. cool concept, but no.
what combat animations/weather/storm mods do you have in this video? looks so cool! please share! @softgaming| #liked & subscribed , really enjoy all your skyrim videos man!
Hey cheers man! Im using MCO with the default Elder Souls animations in this video. For weather i use the NAT weather plugin with true storms and storm lightning

Just jump in nearest river laundry done
This isn't The Witcher
I can't tell if you are joking or not lol
@@professor_pigeon No, it's an actual mod
I really appreciate this list! Several of these I had not heard of and I'm going to check them out.
Would love to see what mods you have on your game. It looks exactly like the kind of graphic/gameplay overhauls I’d love
Can't say for graphics, but I can at least say it looks like NordicUI and CGO - Combat Gameplay Overhaul (which requires Nemesis, a platform for new animations, like the FNIS of old)
Definitely getting 4 of these mods. Thank you!
All of the paper map mods available right now are great. Caro Tuts' map is on another level, though. I hope she eventually makes maps for all the other areas as well.
Thank you for the mod list, they are amazing!! I already had 2 of them installed, and now I'm getting 3 new mods to my list.
I can say the carriage stops of skyrim is highly compatible with almost any mod out there, and I put that mod in category 1 under master files, you'll have no problems whatsoever.
Adding All! gz thank you so much for sharing!

and i thought i was doing something with 450 mods…
Gonna need the mod list bro! Your game looks exactly how I want mine to look
I 100% agree with the paper map. The 3D map looked cool back then because it was never seen before but now it just feels missplaced.
love that paper map!
Love your videos. 🙏🏻
Superpreem, you are my new fav' mod showcaser
Thanks for suggesting carriages stops. Nice lightweight alternative to the usual carriage mods!
Battle aftermath looks great. Unfortunately, people report fps drops.
Carriage stops has stayed in my load order ever since. So handy getting around the map.

Seems like stealing would be the immersive option or scavenging someone else's fight.

Hey mate nice video , can you maybe share your mod list ?
Immersive world encounters is quite a buggy mess when I read through the posts, how's your experience regarding that?
Warning the battle aftermath mod adds a ton of lag
I absolutely love your videos, man! Every time I see a new one I click immediately 🤓
Is there a mod that you have installed for the glossy wet look when it rains? I’ve tried installing much for that but none of them look the way that yours do unfortunately :(
Thanks man, I think that's just the ENB I'm using, Berserkyr ENB
@@SoftGamingOfficial You’re the best! Hope to see a weapon mod showcase soon 🤓
Yesterday I had finished modding, and I was ready to start... Oh well
We need a mod list your game looks better than anyone else’s i’ve seen
is there a complete mod list of the mods you use?
What combat melee animations do you use?
Another great video!. Can you tell me wich mod you use for the character aura effects? They look so good.
Aura effects?
I mean when the character has a active effect. In vanilla there is an ulgy glow effect in the character. But in your game it looks great
How do you make a collision for small trees when you walk around them? I know about this in ENB for Grass. So are these small trees a replacer for grass?
Yes those small trees are part of origin of forest which is technically grass
Do the battle aftermaths (from the battle aftermath mod) disappear after you finish civil war quest line?
Good question lol I'm not sure.
Almost every immersive mod stars with immersive in the title. Good mods but it can get annoying seeing the same name in the title repeat multiple times.
it's like an essential word in the community now, even non immersion mods start with immersive😂😂
That is an incredible nitpick for such free content my guy
@@javiercarrasco2977 yeah Skyrim is still alive to this day because of this amazing community
I'd say that two mods out of seven is hardly the majority. Try your math again.
What is far more annoying to me is this abused term "true RPG." This term has as almost as many meanings as there are players. Unless we define what we mean by "true RPG" it means nothing. Paper maps and fallen trees do not make a game a "true RPG" in my book.
7:19 what is interesting animation sit?? Looks fantastic
Immersive Outhouse Adventures... I feel like that is probably a thing
What’s the armor and combat mod you’re using
How do you get your game to run smooth
I think you said it before but what mountain textures are those at the end when you’re showing the battlefield aftermath?
I use majestic mountains lightside
what are your idles and dodge animations? i love the non-combat idle and the flip dodge
I use smooth moveset and TK dodge RE with Eskyrim animation replacers
what are your PC specs out of curiosity? Also Im very bad at modding Skyrim or any game in fact, but I would like to make mine be exactly like yours. Best modding of skyrim Ive seen yet. Do you have a tutorial of some kind to make a copy past version of your Skyrim?

Hi thanks, what language do you play Skyrim in?
You're most likely using a mod that is not English, for example the Russian or Korean version of the mod

Killing enemies reward xp, so technically no lvl cap.
cam mod pls
Just using the customizable camera mod. Very simple
are we able to get your modlist?
hey what attack animation do u have?
Actually dude you'd be wrong, the 3D map is very Immersive, because of magic. Now with star wars a 3D radar may would be Immersive.

Fuck me, is this skyrim?!
Im on my 900 playthrough, moded!!! And its not even close to this…
I find it so weird that people who enjoy immersion in RPG's still prefer 3rd person view.
Haha yea it's a bit of an oxymoron
Lets add in a mod that breaks the game's progression and call it immersive
