    I think a great addition to this playthrough would be the Skyrim Unleveled Mod. It makes it so that the world doesn't level up with your character, and instead enemies are fixed at a certain level. It makes it feel that you are a part of the world, instead of the world revolving around you

    I enjoyed this, though I think your definition of a normal person and mine are slightly different (Jaree-Ra).
    You helped Faendal with the false letter to Camilla supposedly from Sven. Before you mentioned feeling evil, I wondered how he felt when you hired him, then married Camilla. Serves him right for his lying letter, but you'd better watch your back. And Faendal was one of the three people attending your wedding. You felt bad for what you did. I felt bad for laughing.

    The farm is critical for survival mode. Maybe you can use a mod to make tomato plants growable, and you could grow tomato, potato, leek and cabbage for vegetable soup.
    Also for potions, scaly pholita, creep cluster and blisterwort makes for a powerful fortify illusion/carry potion.
    All 3 ingredients are growable and really help with leveling.
    Combine that with a rich merchant mod and you get some serious ca$h

    Trying to live a "normal life" in Skyrim? You can try. But as everyone finds out, there's no such thing as "normal" in a world like this.
    The call for heroism is strong in Tamriel. The random encounters, bandits, giants, dragons... they aren't going to just leave you alone.
    Even if you stay in one place, they'll keep coming after you. Because being a chosen of Akatosh, one does not shirk responsibility.

    Came here from this video being on my recommended; I don't often click on most of them because they don't interest me, but this one intrigued me as it's something I have dreamt of doing but never really did in Skyrim. And the video is incredible! Succinct, fun, and your voice is very soothing and gentle; pretty much everything I look for in longer-form videos when I'm not looking for intense and loud stuff (and especially after today! I had a tooth extraction and loud videos have been causing some pain, so finding this video has been a godsend lol).
    You've definitely earned a subscription from me, and here's to hoping more of your videos gain traction so that you can have a wider audience because these videos are incredibly well-done! I've already seen your Starfield video also on my recommended, so it seems like it's going to happen, and I'm totally excited to see where your channel goes from here.
    Off-Topic slightly, but is it cool if I ask what mods you're running besides Survival Mode (or in this case it looks like sunhelm possibly?), if you're cool with sharing? I know some creators aren't and that's totally cool if you aren't either; if not the entire modlist then at least the mod that allows you to build farms and such? I'd love to add it to my own load order :O

    did a challenge similar just just did allot more restrictions and was on legendary survival...super hard and very rewarding. just cant fight anyone though. basically had to farm deer/elk, rabbits and any thing that was a beast to level up my bow. then to level up my shields literally had to let crabs beat me up while i ate cooked food to heal up. also to add i was only able to start crafting and actually learning how to make potions i had to find recipes. reading books about things too that would allow me to level certain skills. some odd reason adding restrictions made the game allot more fun for reruns of Skyrim.

      You know, the Usual, 3 Manisons run by a Personal Huscarl producing Alchemy Goods and some Weekend Homes in the other Cities.
      Always look at Alchemists and Vendors for Canisroot and Imp Stool mainly - makes Paralyzing Poisons allowing you to make a fine $$$ or have a very easy Win in a Fight.
      Health Pots grant no real Yield in Money selling them not in usage compared to a poisoned Bow.
      Paralyzing Poison sells for Way more - about 20 Times. And that Boost does apply to the gain in Alchemy Skill as well as Value determins the Gain.
      That same applys to Smithing as well - Helmets are overall the easiest when also boosting Enchantments weightwise, but Torso Armor is the best as you should Upgrade them as well - that is where the real Gain comes From in Terms of Skillprogress - as the Destruction Boost is pretty easy to obtain and yields good results.

    Awesome video! I really liked it! But, I cant deny that I feel like in the moment you started the Lighthouse quest you pretty much stopped living a "normal life" and just started playing regular skyrim lol. Even went down the sneaky archer build.
    Regular common folk live in one city...and stay there...sometimes their whole lifes.
    Without ever having the need to raise a sword or even owning a full plate armor. They dont "take quests"
    I would love for you to revisit this challenge and do just that. Live a normal life in one of the holds. Buy food. Pay for the inn. Work on the mine, cut wood, farm and repeat for lets say 30 days in game time to see what happens. The challenge would be to see if there will be enough food to buy/eat? What happens if the hold is attacked by a dragon or vampires? Etc.
    Keep it up!!

      The normal was more the fact I wasn’t Dragonborn, and if I died that was it. But i didn’t really explain that well haha. Hope you enjoyed though! My newer videos might be more what you like with building

    Playing Skyrim as a non-dragonborn bard with some survival mods was one of my most favorite gaming experiences. Had a mod that turned off character names until you met them which made things pretty immersive too. Didn't care about the main story at all, just spent a lot of time doing side quests for people on my little journey that ultimately ended 50 hours in with a nice home and an adopted daughter I found in the thieves guild after I killed everyone there.
    There's something quite nice about playing as someone who isn't "Le chosen one" again. Not starting with a massive intro but instead just in a tavern. A lowly adventurer.

      @ValePlaysGames  Před 8 měsíci +1

      Glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching! You should give it a go, it’s quite safe until you start quests haha. If you’re just doing normal things you should be fine

    I started a survival mode playthrough a while back as a Nord, a former legion soldier who was born in Skyrim, who lived for a long time in Cyrodiil, and then returned to Skyrim. I played basically as a regular dude who was just taking jobs that people would pay for. Eventually my guy finds out he is DB of course, and it leads to adventures. But the "regular guy" roleplay can be pretty fun. I made bookoo money chopping wood in Riverwood.

    These videos of yours are pretty fun. I'm totally subscribing. You should do one doing what I always try to do: play Skyrim like it's Mount and Blade. I used to use one of the multiple companion mods and a Skyrim civil war mod...then I'd outfit companions as legion or hold guards, one of the mods even let you have guards/legion follow you if you're a thane.
    It's really fun to do Fort captures with dozens of men at your back. It's even more fun to have them when assaulting or defending a city. Once, we lost at Falkreath and so the game reset to spawning hold guards instead of the weaker stormcloak npcs during a battle -- it was fun watching my men get slaughtered soon before being cut down myself. Needless to say, the civil war mod is compatible with the mod that starts up the Thalmor war again, under the same mechanics. It might be interesting to see not just how far you get, but also how far your companions make it in the war if you turn their essential status off before each battle.

    • @ValePlaysGames

      Do you know any good civil war mods? I’ve looked into conquest of Skyrim but it still seems early in development

    • @jjhh320
      @jjhh320 Před 6 měsíci

      @@ValePlaysGames Idk too much about which mods are still good today, as I only played before the Anniversary Edition update, but at the time I was using the one called Open Civil War by simtam. I think it's still kept up to date on Nexus.
      For the multiple companions, I was using UFO (ultimate follower overhaul) by fLokii but it might be buggy and not updated, so you could also try MFF (multiple follower framework) by Dromundas, which seems to be getting regular updates but I've never used it.
      Lastly, to get a war against the Thalmor, there's The Second Great War by Reath.

    Honestly loved this video, and couldn’t believe it was your 1st like other people are saying. Not a complaint, but a suggestion; I would literally love to see more Skyrim videos but wayyy longer if you were down. I would watch a full 1-2 hour video of Skyrim by you tbh

    • @ValePlaysGames
