Looks amazing, but I really don't like all the acrobatic stuff, like when he does a handstand and then strikes with the sword... super immersion breaking and quite frankly unnecesary! Can i deactivate those movesets somehow?
You can change literally anything, you just need to know how to use Mo2@@REALdavidmiscarriage
@@REALdavidmiscarriage when you first install it, there are options you can turn off like the Fantasy move list thing. Its probably where that animation came from. I made sure not to install it and I don't do any of that fancy JARPG stuff.
I laughed hard on SIXTEEN TIMES THE DEETAIL hahahah epic
Wait. Can you repeat which mods were used to make the vampire system so good?
Or can I add other mods to the list when I run this modpack?
I 'am 56 years old and a Skyrim Fan from day 1. After a recent accident I found myself paralyzed from the chest down. With so much time on my hands I found myself searching youtube for Skyrim videos and found this one!!! I installed Nolvus Monday and can't put the controller down.
THANK YOU from the bottom of my Heart! What a Masterpiece!! The views are absolutely amazing!!
I’m so sorry for your troubles and health. I’m glad you found something that brought you joy thank you for sharing little rays of hope like this remind me how important these games can be to us in helping get through a day. I hope you are well I hope you get better I hope you fare well in your adventure.
That’s awesome you’ve found an outlet to escape into. Welcome to nolvus brother
I am 54 and I too have had health problems in which sky rim and other games have helped me cope. I really can't get out and do much at this point due to a serious health problem I am having, but I can play these type of games and let my imagination run wild. I like this mod and the stalker gamma mod. There is a pretty neat mod pack for fallout 4 I am thinking of installing that makes the game more stalker like.
@@markp2085 you should try keyboard and mouse, its a lot easier to control than a controller because the controller uses a tiny joystick. With the mouse you have complete range of motion and its extremely freeing. Hope you give it a try!
@@radscorpion8I never play with a controller. They handicap you way too much. The only time I use coltrollers - joysticks etc are for games like elite dangerous and star citizen. I also have a racing cockpit. I can not drive in real life but am a 200 mph terror in VR.
I downloaded this the other day and as a Skyrim veteran, this is the best modpack you will ever play. Everything feels brand new yet familiar and not having to slog through the modding process to make the game enjoyable was a huge bonus. Everything runs smoothly and invested in a new SSD and extra ram just to play this. 10/10
hopefully my vid showed you some features you didn't know about too!
Can i ask what specks your system is?
@@Cnaoens820 they're in the vids description :)
How many frames are you getting??
What's your setup
@@amirhb7531 pc specs are in the description, solid 60 to 120 with paid DLSS mod from PureDarks patreon. Some dips to 40s in really intense areas but never for very long
Marvelous editing skills.. The choices of music and audio editing are just perfect. You have a really good talent at presenting the mods. Everything is working in perfect harmony. I wish id saw your videos sooner, but I guess better late than never, im definitely here to stay. You really make us want to play it. Amazing work.
Been playing Skyrim on and off since it's release day back in 2011, but having dived into the modding scene a while back I used to have to dedicate almost an entire week to getting it installed and set up just-so. Been getting the itch to play it again and this can't believe the trove I stumbled across with this video!! Thank you so much for making this and getting word of the modpack out there :D
This mod pack is not only legendary, but nolvus's installer is brilliant and automated with a+ instructions. Everything is laid out clearly and explained so well. The quality is top notch. Wow is all I have to say
Best part is too is that you don't have to worry about your modded game playthru whenever bethesda patches the game..just started my nolvus up today after skyrim updated and not a single problem
Installer is great for the premium users. Otherwise you have to download 2059 mods manualy which is fucking ass as fuck
I havent played or modded skyrim for many many years but seeing these developments i would really love to jump back in.
I also see videos about skyrim ultima. Is that kind of like nolvus?
Would you reccomend nolvus over ultima personally?
Like truly automated? Just got into Skyrim again a few days ago and decided to get one of the popular "collections" on nexus, but it still took me 4 hours of sitting at my pc downloading mods. Really don't want to go through that again
@@T0NI_ if you have premium nexus acct its pretty much does it all on its own
My guy...This video is a masterpiece. Every choice in footage to show, music, your descriptions, segues. It's all top tier quality, fantastic job and I'm 1000% going to give nolvus a shot now. Be proud of this video, amazing work.
Part 2 in the making! comments like these that give me the power , thanks bro!
@@RelentlessZen you’re more than welcome, I’ll be ready for it!
Agreed!
I'm so excited to try this out! Starting the modding process is always a chore and I end up doing something wrong, but this will make it super easy! Thanks for bringing this modpack to light!
Install was super simple, the guide on the site is really easy to follow. I just launched, got to the starting room for Alternate Start and this weekend can’t get here fast enough! 12 years of console later and this is my first time playing with mods. What an awesome way to celebrate the anniversary! 🎉🎉
Thanks for the awesome upload!!! 🙏🏾
You playing this with a controller? or did it force you to play on mouse and keyboard
Huge props for this video, it looks absolutely fantastic and the breakdown is so nice to follow. Also masterwork on the camera work for the footage.
Great video! Excellent editing, as with all of your vids. The information was laid out well, and without a dull moment; this video didn't feel like it was anywhere near half an hour long.
I did a Nolvus playthrough earlier this year, after learning about it from your trailer, and I was very impressed. That said, my playthrough was mostly vanilla. I think, once I'm done with Phantom Liberty, I'll do another Nolvus playthrough and engage more deeply with the modded content. Thanks for the information and inspiration!
You delved into that in a way I've never seen in a review before. Very open to playing in other ways you might gravitate yourself and explaining them thoroughly. Just blown away by the Nolvus collection and a similar awe at this new review level I hope becomes more standard.
Part two is cooking as we speak! Thank you so much for the kind words these reviews take a ton of research and grind to get out there. I work full time and it's rough to balance content and my job. its people like you that keep me going!
This mage gameplay looks like everything I could possibly want to. Spell weaving with combat stances and even some close ranged combat. Absolutely stunning. Unfortunately, my pc is weak, but with the upgrade this mod pack will be the first thing I will install. Ty for the mod demonstration!
A weak pc is fine you can install nolvus redux
@@nickrffpatellis852 you need like 400gb free space
@@nickrffpatellis852 even if you have a 1660 ti?
@@dirge44 i have a 1660 super and it ran at 30-40 and during heavy affects dropped to 23-27 so yea definitely playable
how much ram do u have?@@NemosPlay
Best review ive seen, ive been playing nolvus for about a week now and you taught me a lot about it... didnt realise it had so much depth. Liked and subscribed, looking forward to your other videos. Top quality.
I'll be making a Part 2 covering the stuff I didn't get round to! including Starting the game for the first time and getting things setup the way you want before venturing into Skyrim for 111th time!
@@RelentlessZen That would be a good video to do, seeing as I've downloaded Nolvus and play it after work. My main thing, is the UI; I don't like what Nolvus has but the one you are using in this video is marvelous. But knowing what it is, and how to install it in this already massive modlist seems daunting. I am also unfamiliar with MO2. But maybe once I get home today I can ask around the discord and see if anything has been brought up about it. I know another youtuber named nukt does amazing videos of a customized version of Nolvus. Looks incredible. But great video, can't wait for part 2.
@@SkeletonManBones you can find me in the Nolvus discord, im happy to help. the UI is called Untarnished and required another mod called Dear Diary.
@@RelentlessZenOh that is what that one is?? Yeah someone did mention that, and I do want to do that but, what goes through my mind is. Do I take out the current UI mod, download those two and slap them into MO2? I am just not familiar with any of that. Seeing as I haven't modded manually or with any sort of tools in a long time lol. More familiar with Vortex.
@@SkeletonManBones what i did was just download both dear diary and untarnished , first you install dear diary, then untarnished, activate them by ticking the boxes on the left panel and away you go.
This looks absolutely phenomenal. Great video editing btw and a modlist that might just make me want to play Skyrim AGAIN.
This was an amazing video man!!! That cut to the dragon alongside the paraglide made me shiver in excitement like I was about to play Skyrim for the first time again. *chef's kiss*
This looks incredible. So glad this came across my suggested feed. Thanks for making this. Can't wait to try this!
I started playing this last week, and it’s hard to believe I’m taking moments to just admire how absolutely gorgeous things are for a game that released more than a decade ago.
Absolutely insane modding community and pack organizer.
There are some graphical bugs, and some quests are buggy, but I recommend going into the game with an adventure mindset-accept that things may not work and you’re just there to explore a world, and you’ll have a blast
I was on the fence about getting Nolvus but this video single-handedly convinced me to dive in! As others have mentioned, the work you clearly put into this video is insane but the actual cinematography in this video is absolutely incredible and pushes what already looks like a gorgeous and feature-packed mod into one that looks like a movie. Huge kudos and I look forward to seeing more content from you!
Hey hows your expirience so far with Nolvus?
@@hotdogman7442 Have you tried it and if so is it as good as it seems?
I don't comment often but this was quality stuff! Thank for putting this beautiful video together! It definitely got my behind to quickly download this pack and play it to my hearts content as well as share this with others so they may enjoy it as well!
Thank you for taking the time! Part 2 is now also available if you haven't already seen it!
PLEASE make a part 2!!!! this video is what got me to play skyrim again thanks so much
Great video. And it's nice to see a showcase like this also guiding players too. I love Nolvus but the problem with any large mod list is that you often aren't aware of all the extra elements added so you can end up missing out on so much. This showcase helps you find and even configure some of these more hidden additions. Also, thanks for showcasing Vlad! 😁
What an awesome review video. I wish I had the patience to tackle something with sooooo many new controls, combos, stances, systems, etc. I always just get lost in the sauce and overwhelmed with these, but god do they look gorgeous and fun once you get it all down. If these huge packs had full controller integration with selection popup wheels for all the things I could probably commit, but they just have so many mods that require controls! Had fun watching!
There's a neat mod called wheeler people use for controller. There's a section in the discord for controller support too.
Accidentally ran into your channel. And have to say, your videos are insanely good. For sure one of best skyrim youtubers out there in terms of content presentation. Keep it up
Bro ty for covering this looks awesome! im just about to do my first pc build moving over from playstation. Ive played Skyrim for years ive got a feeling with these mods it's going to be like a completely new experience for me considering how little Sony let you mod Skyrim. I love that these are all included in Nolvus Ascension and looks to be easy to get it installed. Can't wait to play ty again mate!
This is one of those modlists that I could cry its so genuinely thoughtful and well made. Im so ready for my pc to finish downloading this!
Its amazing,,, is your game working? I cried , knowing my skyrim is now perfect,, yes i did
Wow... this is an amazing complete review! I love your cinematics and music choices! :)
Suprised this fell under my radar for so long. This appears to be a superior skyrim exprience .. and ofc i am currently downloading things to give it a try.
Nice editing, nice explaining .. and nice teasing :)
this video was amazing. thank you for showing me something that made me fall in love with skyrim again.
What modding has done to this game is simply unbelievable!
Great video, more people need to know about nolvus or wabbajack because there are soooo many great mods out and most of us can’t or don’t want to figure out how to mod the game, find conflicts etc.
I would love to see more mod list reviews from you!
Xactly. I'm guilty. A couple years back I was trying to get a mod list to work and I gave up. It's like you have to take a class to get things to work >
@@spyritwind2540 don’t remind me. I remembered when I first played Skyrim and played the main story, the dlc with the tentacle things and some faction quests. Then I stumbled upon mods for Skyrim and I completely wrecked my save with random mods trying to get them to work mid playthrough. I put so much time in xedit and all the other programs. But there was always a mod that conflicted in some way with another until I stopped playing Skyrim for a while then started again with modding. But it’s like an addiction. You search through the mods and there is ALWAYS a mod that’s also nice. Never played the big mods like bruma because I ruined my Skyrim either conflicting mods or bad balance. And modpacks are simply amazing how much work they put in. In my opinion they are making unique games FOR FREE (if you have the hardware). Funny thing is I’m bored because I’m overclocking my pc for nolvus and waiting for the stresstests at the moment, that’s why I’m writing so much. I wish everyone who reads this till the end the very best
I have been playing this for the last few days. It only crashed once on me and froze once after that. Then nothing since then. Id say about 16hours of gameplay after those two occurs with no problems. I have been modding this game for years and never look forward to the days of modding and tweaking to get my own personal list to work right with 1000 mods. I threw all that out and downloaded this and now I can finally play the game and have fun instead of modding it. Thanks for everyone involved in putting this mod list together and making it work. It is amazing!
(-After 20 hours more playtime no crashes. Fantastic!)
Fantastic video, man! You got my sub. I finally started down Nolvus journey today. I haven't had the desire to play Skyrim in years but this had really renewed my interest.
Welcome aboard! I['ve got Part 3 almost cooked! showing things I added and recommended settings and some crazy builds!
This was an awesome video, and I will definitely be downloading this. Looking forward to part 2!
Great video! I'm gonna start a new character in Nolvus now that i understand the Unbound mod and a few other things a bit better. If you do a part two I would definitely love to see a bit on the reputation system mod!
I don't normally consider lists like this. Normally a lot I don't like in them, but this... this is amazing. I think you just have got me to try a....8....9...er...100, oh who's counting anyway, play through. The Druid and Mage stuff looks fantastic and I always wanted to play more of a proper druid style character in a TES game.
Nolvus look absolutely brilliant. Thank you Relentless Zen for taking the time to make this video. Once I have a powerful enough Gpu and an ssd, this will be the 1st thing to be downloaded.
Watched your video last night and decided to try Nolvus, installation was actually pretty fast and somehow worked first try! I also added the DLSS upscaler that works with ENBs and it looks and runs fantastic, 0 crashes so far after 10hrs.
I started watching you for Warframe content, which is insane. This is one level above. Wanted to see where the modding now is with Skyrim. After I've spent hundreds ( above 2k somewhere ) of hours modding this game, I am thinking of giving it an another go thanks to this straight fire video. Thank you.
I am in awe of your video, sir. Congratulations on it.
From the video quality to the editing and scene captures, everything is on point! I've been considering buying the anniversary edition just to dive into Skyrim again.
Although I thought Starfield would be enough to keep me away, it's clear that there's still so much to explore in Skyrim, and this is no BS coming from me.
You, sir, have truly inspired me! All credits for my return video go to you!
Furthermore, one thing that truly seals the deal is the soundtrack. Oh my goodness, what an amazing job you did editing it into the video. Please, sir, could you tell me where you sourced this music from?
Cheers!
Thanks for the kind words! Music is licensed to me via Epidemic sound
Absolutely immaculate presentation on this video. Fantastic work!
There is no doubt this is best collection/mod pack period. You explained everything perfectly
This helped me find Nolvus! I really hope you consider in the future doing a video that is like a noob guide for the basic systems that are consistent in all Nolvus playthroughts. In this video you show off some mods specifically which gives you the "this is cool" feeling. But When you drop into Nolvus, THERE IS ALOT. A UI Guide, a Basic Combat/Rules guide, things like that. I've been enjoying discovering it, but It would be a cool video to see and I think youre the guy to do it
Yes, would be great to have a ,, 50 beginner tips for Novlus video.. Because its so massive lol
I’m really not a fan of Nolvus at all, but I just want to say that I’m taken aback at how high quality this video is. The narration, camerawork, and scripting are genuinely great, and I’d love to see more Skyrim content from you in the future.
working on part 2 atm, then I might review Wildlander
Is there any problem with it?
@@caliburn1123 problem with Nolvus? no its a very well polished List for those who can run it on their pc.
@@caliburn1123 it just doesn’t appeal to me on a personal level, that’s all.
@@RelentlessZen Thanks for the info!!
The last time I was installing Skyrim, the MCM and the sky UI didn't work with the aniversary edition so I kinda backed out of playing it😅
(Edit)
Just another question do I need to have some mods like sky UI, MCM before or does it come with the pack?
This video is very informative and has great pacing! Awesome job, subbed! 👌
This mod collection is so beautiful I recommend it at most. Can't stop playing Skyrim is a completely new game. Many thanks to the developers
So the thing about skyrim is
Don't forget that it's also
Skyrim is definitely one of the
Mayhaps, however
😅
I don't its is the thing
Sorry for the late comment ;) AMAZING review, the best i've seen. I'm gratefull for all the work done. Nice to have you on this community!
I love Nolvus!! It truly feels like i am playing a brand new game. I enjoy just walking around the wilderness
Thank's for the video! I will love to play this version
OMG this looks stunning! Awesome work as always, Zen!
Wow... had no idea about the staff attack combos. I've been playing with Nolvus for only a month now and there's still a ton of stuff I'm stumbling on by accident. It's absolutely insane and it's no longer Skyrim. It's a brand new triple A game.
Easily the best modpack review I've ever seen, I don't mean the mod, I mean the video, amazing editing, music & scenery, thanks man!
Edit: as I've watched more of the video... I mean seriously man, this editing... amazing
Going back here everyday waiting for the part 2 lol, can't forget to say: great video
147 hours of playtime on Steam but spent most time modding to exhaustion, over and over. Decided to reset (again) and give this a try. So far so good! Looking forward to this playthrough.
There a really helpful discord too should you need it
slyrim updated :)))
Just dropping by to say the editing in this spotlight is great, I love that you're mentioning individual mods rather than just go "oh yeah there's like 5 magic mods overhauling mage gameplay". I sunk many hours into custom modded lists, as well as in Qwest and Elysium. I am excited to try this one next.
im so happy this came up on my feed ive wanted to play skyrim again. getting it started now! gread video b
This was a beautifully put together mod showcase 👏
Skyrim is basically my home town. I had to leave it one day, but I always go back for vacation visits, and it's my comfort zone.
I'm the same way, its my game when im sick too, no discord vc or lobbies, play at your own pace, your own way. soothing!
This is nuts, I JUST downloaded your Druid preset yesterday, and then I see this.
You're quite the giver, Mr. Zen!
Part 2 and a bunch of new presets on their way too!
I justvstarted playing Nolvus after not playing skyrim modded for like 5 or more years... And iam loving Nolvus man, so much content and depth to the game now, and excellent and very impressive video man, this should be the trailer vid, well lile the intro vid on his mod page, so well put together and highlights some great footage!
It was a whole thing to get this set up but man its great thank you man
An excellent review, most excellent indeed!
I've been on the fence about playing Skyrim again as I hate spending days on various mods and then losing interest 5 minutes into finally settling on a playthru... so this is a most welcome surprise!
Yeah this is the way! Spend time playing and experiencing new things rather than modding and burning yourself out.
Commenting on this video twice, because this is hands down the best review of the mod and vektor should link it to the page. With over 2000 mods, it’s overwhelming to figure out what the mod actually does (especially if you haven’t played Skyrim in years). This is a brilliant introduction for a new player.
It's done, it has been linked right away after released in the player guide web site page
How many gb is it?
345 gb - 392 gb, depending on which version you choose. @@natel7382
I haven't played Skyrim in over 8 years, until I saw this video 2 days ago. I just built a new PC a few months ago and this video showed up in my feed. I'm all about this right now!!!
The production value and feel of a high-budget documentary! Well done.
I must say... your review is unmatched, bro.
Glad you think so! ❤
Looks like a blast... as soon as I can get myself to step away from Cyberpunk I will certainly give this a try. I've been itching for a Skyrim playthrough but it will be exciting to have so many completely new features to discover and experiment with
You just made me want to redownload and play tons of Skyrim again and since I haven't liked the turn-based combat in BG3, I gotta say it. I friggin loved this vid! Well deserved like!
hollly smokes... you really know how to use words and music to create a really enthralling and poetic video. talk about goosebumps lol this might be the first skyrim modpack i try when i get my 4070
First of all the video is magnificent: it feels brief yet so complete and got me hooked like it was a 5min one✨
I was just wondering, with all this incredible maneuvers and powers, can the enemies still be threatening? Are they gonna use it some themselves? Or they are simply going to deal more damage?
They use stances, dodge, parry and block you. Just like you
I am currently downloading this mod pack while typing this message! I am excited to play Skyrim again as if it's a brand new game! So excited!
Also - awesome video! Well done!
Thank you! Don't forget to check out part 2!
@@RelentlessZen incredible video man you have impeccable taste in editing and overall presentation 👌
Thank you for this guide. cant wait to experience this
Thank you, @RelentlessZen, for sharing this to the algorithm. I am installing it rn and so hyped to set this up the first time and spend my whole Christmas vacation with Skyrim again. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
I can't wait for Nolvus Awakening
I know it's too late for this video, but if you ever do a new one- it would be really appreciated if you could show what if any beast race changes have been applied. Generally with most mod lists they get skipped almost entirely, and most of the best beast race mods are skipped, simply because modding beast races is more difficult as is making sure they are set up correctly.
Amazing job! I'm about to get back on Skyrim, this is just amazing!
I have been seeing these insane 2k+ mods but have been beyond overwhelmed thinking about manually doing it. Only to fuck up somewhere and not knowing where and the game won't even start. Then having to start allllllllll over again.
So, to see that this is finally possible, I just need to pay for Nexus premium as I don't have sanity to manually hit ok for that many mods. I can finally push my PC and skyrim to its limits!
it's well worth it, the game feels completely different. there's obviously a learning curve to having setup just the way you want it to be via the MCMs when i do Part 2 I'll cover what I do when starting a fresh playthrough including my MCM prep. hopefully that will help you if you ever get to trying Nolvus :)
@@RelentlessZen Would you be able to share your specs? I tried running it on my 32:9 monitor, but performance isn't great, also what settings you selected when installing would be helpful!

I unfortunately have to install the Redux version since I only have the RTX 3060 for my GPU but I can confidently say that it still looks a lot (about 90%) like the video showcased above. This saved me countless hours of reinstalling MODs and shaping the vanilla game the way I like it. NOLVUS MOD list pretty much included every MOD I would like already. Still so much to experiment and discover in this version of Skyrim world. Thanks a bunch!!!
I'm just finishing up part 2 vid! Lots more to show for you to try! Thanks so much for stopping by to share your thoughts! You can also add DLSS from PureDarks patreon to get an extra 20 FPS, if you need help join the Nolvus discord :)
May i ask, can i run this modpack with an RTX 3050 Vram 6 GB, i have AMD Ryzen 7640HS, i'm playing on Lenovo LOQ (Laptop). I have 8 GB ram (I don't have budget to upgrade it for now..)
This looks absolutely gorgeous. At this point, Bethesda should hire modders to make their games. Maybe then Starfield wouldn't feel like a 10 year old game.
Yep I know what mod list I want for my Christmas present ❤ much love.
i downloaded this mod today. new to PC and this is my first ever mod for a game. looks amazing and i cant wait to play. seems like there is a lot to learn, it really does look and im sure feel like a totally new game years later since my last playthrough
I just don't like how over the top and stylized the combat is.
I agree. The combat is far too cinematic and not gritty enough to suit the graphic/ texture enhancements. It plays more like a Korean mmo.
@@Cyb3rFckyea because some of the animations and armour sets look like they’re ripped straight from Black Desert Online lmao
When you download the modpack you have the option of downloading less extreme move sets. This guy did what I did and downloaded the action move set. It’s more anime than the other. Don’t diss unless you know what you’re talking about pls
@@blaabbb1 It's not a diss dog lol he was just giving genuine criticism. The guy making the video should've included that or at least mentioned it so people who are not a fan of that style know of the alternative, he was basing his comment on this videos showcase
@scottholmes6080 Well it is a mod pack so I am sure you could simply not install that particular mod.
combat looks like anime garbage, not lore friendly at all
This modlist is f*** amazing... never had the chance to play skyrim with more than 300 mods without any issues... played around 70 hours and the game crashed maybe 4 times.. no negative influence on quests or any other bugs. I joined his patreon this guy deserves support!
This is absolutely incredible! I can't put into words how hyped it makes me to see such complex and well thought through work done by Skyrim moders. It's autumn, so I am experiencing full-blown Skyrim nostalgia (which is what brought me here in the first place) and Nolvus' mod pack would be perfect to cure my seasonal Skyrim cravings!
Sadly I do not possess a 11GB VRAM GPU, so I guess I will have to wait until I can afford to build a proper PC to experience this masterpiece :(
Fingers crossed that I'll be able to until autumn 2024 :)
the vram isn't the be all end all, plenty of people run Nolvus on less, I've even seen someone run Nolvus on a steamdeck !
@@RelentlessZen wow, first of all - what a quick response! And second - so you're telling me there is a cha... oh wait, 32gb ram is also something I do not have 😅 well at least it's something that can be fixed with a small upgrade. Thanks for the info! I might give it a try on my current PC after all 🙃
@@lifipp there's more than one version of Nolvus.
Redux Variant (Same as the Ultra gameplay wise but less heavy on vegetation and cities overhaul for better performance)
GPU : Minimum : GTX 1080 - Recommended : RTX 2070
VRAM : 8 Gb at 1080p (HIGHER GPU with MORE VRAM needed beyond 1080p)
RAM : 32 Gb
STORAGE (SSD Mandatory): 345 Gb
the most important part is the SSD
You can get by with less ram, but you really should have 32gb in this current day of gaming in general
Looks like a really cool mod list but I really don’t like the combat
Nexus premium. Gross.
Poor people, gross. in all seriousness though , feel free to sit there for 15 hours manually clicking each download because you can't fork out $4 for a Nexus account. it's not even a restriction put in place by the modpack, its literally just Nexus throttling downloads for free users. once again NOTHING to do with Nolvus. EVERY modpack from anywhere, Wabbajack, Nolvus, Vortex requires this.
Honestly if you can't afford $4 you probably don't have the PC to run this modlist.
@@RelentlessZen Sensitive youtuber. Gross. Just buy a better game. Nexus isn't going to sponsor you with 6 uploads a year no matter how hard you dick-ride.
@@RelentlessZen Nexus Premium is a scam. They're never going to sponsor you bro. Shill harder.
@@bahmuut4825 I never said I agree with Nexus mods business model. What I said was its nothing to do with Nolvus. the modpack requires mods from Nexus. Nexus restricts the downloads without premium.
No one is making you download and install Nolvus. Quite frankly someone with your mindset doesn't deserve it anyway.
Troll harder dumb ass.
This is the single best showcase of a mod I have seen, thus far. I almost want to watch it twice (and probably will once I get my new SSD)
This looks amazing, it's a brand new game. I will definitely try it out, I've been looking for the best mods to install to improve the graphics and gameplay, and I can't believe someone created this. Thank you for the video!
I've got part 2 almost done, to show even more of its features off!
@@RelentlessZen Sounds great!
Definitely earned that like comment and sub. Thanks for opening my eyes to this modpack! Getting back into skyrim for the first time in many years
It's such a fresh experience that brings a smile to your face when you notice all the differences, I started playing Skyrim at release on console and it's a whole new world now!
Do you know if the 400gb sdd space is actually entirely used? How large is your actual game files? I may need to buy a larger sdd but would love to confirm with someone that has it all installed first@@RelentlessZen
@@garretttaylor8985 entirely depends on which version and options you choose, if you are maxing everything you'll need over 400G
I'm watching this while downloading all 2700 mods. This is the perfect introduction to the mod, now I'm even more excited to play it!
Hell yeah! I'm editing Part 2 as I write this :)
"Part of the download gang"... Calling me out at the end lmao. This is the perfect series to watch though while waiting. You absolutely nailed it.
Amazing!Thanks for this!
Gotta say you or the editor if you have one did a really good job editing this video!
Just me! Thank you! If you haven't already check out part 2!
I just spent half of yesterday remodding skyrim for the 11th time, only to learn about Nolvus today. Have immediately scrapped my shoddy setup and working towards getting Nolvus set up.
Thank you for the in-depth video of this mod was wondering if it was worth it to cleanse my PC for it and with the help of your video made it definitely worth it.
J'ai vraiment envie de rejouer à Skyrim avec le mod Nolvus, c'est un travail d'une telle qualité qui est présentée grâce à cette vidéo. Merci !
This is what I've been needing!!! I've been trying so hard to play skyrim again and after downloading mod after mod after mod that needs this and that to work I've given up. I'm downloading this after work!
