The Elder Scrolls Skyrim is the fifth part of the legendary RPG series, which was released in 2011. As with any other game in this series, global mods on Skyrim were no exception to the rule. In this article you will learn about the largest additions for the fifth part of the game.
Game history
Each part of The Elder Scrolls acquired a lot of mods, add-ons. Some of them were cosmetic in nature - they changed the graphics for the better, improved textures and so on. The other part was aimed at changing the optimization. The third is various content. In the latter case, the modifications took on even an absurd character. For example, some add-ons added cars to the game instead of horses and so on. Both amateur and professional add-ons for Skyrim have been released to this day, to this day, although more than 5 years have passed since the release of the game. But what can I say, even for Morrowind and Oblivion add-ons are still released.
The global mods on Skyrim are quite diverse. The most popular of them will be discussed later. Let's start with the largest package of modifications to improve the graphics and atmosphere of the game.
Retexturization
Most mods are packs of textures or effects that enhance the appearance of the game. Like, for example, Skyrim HD 2k. This modification is a complete processing of all textures in the game. Thanks to the program, you can enjoy high-resolution textures. This add-on eliminates the problem of blurring textures. This problem occurs when a low-resolution game is launched on a large monitor or TV. With this mod, it became possible to play in resolutions up to 4k. In this situation, Skyrim starts to look completely new.
Holds
Following high-resolution textures, it is recommended that urban recycling be established. Modification does not affect textures, but it works very well with effects in game cities. If we recall the original, then we can note quite gray and monotonous settlements. It seems that the creators paid little attention to the elaboration of cities, putting all their efforts into the dungeons and open spaces with dragons.
Each city now looks different: the creators built each settlement from scratch. New buildings with detailed textures, roads, residents. In addition, you will definitely notice the redesigned effects. Now the game looks beautiful at dawn and sunset, during fog and in snowfall with rain. Everything is as in life.
Reality Climates of Tamriel
Since we touched on the topic of weather conditions, we cannot but mention the Reality Climates of Tamriel. The global assembly of Skyrim mods means improving all the weather effects in the game. The bewitching sky at dawn and sunset, the oppressive atmosphere during night rain and thunderstorms, calming midday snowfall and so on.
Enhanced lights
The final touch in transforming the look of the game will be Enhanced Lights. Global mods on Skyrim can be installed endlessly. However, you need to monitor optimization and ensure that all add-ons do not interfere with each other's work. Therefore, we dwell on the above selection. Enhanced Lights changes all the lighting in the game. More realistic reflections, glare on the water, light through windows and so on. Together with high-resolution textures, altered weather effects, this add-on gives an incredible result: in the appearance of the game you will not find anything in common with the original.
Gameplay Change
Mods for game content and process is the most famous part of Skyrim. The Global Satellite Enhancement mods are also on this list.
Ultimate Follower Overhaul is an assembly for improving satellite behavior and control. Everyone who played the original can complain about the weak artificial intelligence of the satellites. Your friends are constantly disappearing at the most inopportune moment.
Now this problem is resolved. In addition to the fact that the developers tried to bring the behavior of the satellites closer to real, they created a new system for monitoring and managing computer partners. For example, each satellite has now been awarded its own horse and moves around the world of Skyrim with you on horseback. A complete list of changes is unlikely to fit on one A4 page. All described add-ons with a full description and installation instructions can be found on the Skyrim Nexus website. There you will find global mods on Skyrim, which are not presented in this article. Perhaps you can find a better combination in terms of improving your favorite game and performance.
Wyrmstooth
Finally, we can give an example of a good plot addition to the game. Wyrmstooth offers the player a new island with a new storyline. The passage will take only a couple of hours, but the gameplay is slightly diversified, because the plot additions did not work out for the game for a very long time. The global Skyrim 5 mod Wyrmstooth is a small island with new characters and a simple storyline. Each character received voice acting, which is not often found in amateur additions. A great reason to return to the old game, which will soon become a classic.
