I had to sub. Thanks for the amazing video. Can you please let me me know where you got these mods, what mods you recommend as mandatory and what VR headset and system you are using for this experience. I have a beast of a gaming PC. Thanks for your time.
Since watching.. I have a 5950x with a 2080ti build in play... 32gb ddr4 3600 ram... Rift S...
Perhaps overpowered on the CPU and underpowered on the GPU?
But hopefully i'll be able to hang with this experience... I got many hrs in PSVR skyrim, but it was an awful experience compared to what is shown and now possible with proper controls and power behind it.
Nice work lol.
Sex in skyrim vr
if you want even more realistic try these mods
Cathedral - 3D Mountian Flowers
Cathedral - 3D Pine Grass - High Poly Green Grass Update
Cathedral - Rocky Shores
3D Snowberries
Real 3D Walls
Skyrim 3D Windmill
Gokstad Ship and Player Home v1_3b
If you want an old school rpg like UO or RS try oathbreakers. It runs on quest 2 and pc, its pretty good and has some solid combat mechanics
Great self control. You did a great job of keeping this G rated.

Yes i appreciate this aswell

Totally agree that Skyrim is the best. Why? Just like every Bethesda game: mod authors. Other companies should take note. Share the tools and get out of the way.
exactly, even if developers were perfect and heared the community they woudn't be able to attend all demand, its better to leave the work to the modders
That is an interesting discussion. Is it good game or is a good base for making your dream game.
@@koltaire5938 Both. It's gotta be good enough to capture modders' imaginations, or nothing will happen.
@@stephenriggs8177 Exactly -
They make games with worlds that feel lived in enough to be worth adding to, with good enough lore to give you ideas. The flaws are only worth fixing because the core is good, otherwise what's the point? Why polish a turd?
@@NamelessKing1597 Maybe... its a golden turd? Idk.
A lot of people still don't understand that Skyrim VR, needs to be modded. Even many famous VR channels fail to emphasize this; it's crazy! Most native VR games feel vastly incomplete by comparison to what a well modded Skyrim VR, offers:)
I totally agree! I don't know why Bethesda or Zenimax hasn't noted all the work the modding community has put in and either hire some of those who created the mods or adopted the work in their own games. Like why not make a VR MMORPG? or make a VR Version of Elderscrolls Online?
@@dominickisidore5180 I think there's a really easy answer to that.
Wearing a chunky box strapped to your face for hours at a time, hundreds or thousands of hours is not a great experience for most people. And I don't think the number of players with headsets willing to play the game would justify the creation of it.
PSVR players crying rn
Yes, especially with 18+ mods
@@solareclipse9379 18+? 180 minimum maybe
Skyrim is my go to VR game.
Because VR is so powerful.
The shift in perspective is so complete that it's difficult to believe even when you are experiencing it at first.
The night sky in Skyrim is so beautiful.
This is a powerful testimonial, makes me want to impulse buy a VR headset! I just can't justify the purchase of a VR headset until there are more games as good as Skyrim VR
I have enough disposable income for a VR headset, but it's literally not worth it yet in my opinion. I think I will purchase next-gen Valve or HTC VR or Sony's PSVR2 if it works on PC. On my buddy's Oculus, I played Beatsaber, Superhot, Blade & Sorcery, and Gorn. They were fun for about 10 minutes. Flight Simulator is a great experience, but not my idea of fun.
For me the only VR games worth playing are Skyrim VR and Fallout 4 VR and they require a lot of mods and configuration to enjoy properly. VR is still in its infancy, glorified gimmick, but Skyrim VR gives a taste of the future
@@EhurtAfy Yeh It's crazy that a ten year old game is better than anything else. But then that's because people have been building mods for it for ten years. There's heaps of other great things to play though. Fallout is alright but I got tired of how ugly everything is after a while.
VR would have to become more popular than flat screen gaming for there to be more games like Skyrim, way more popular considering how many people have put so much work into Skyrim. There's nothing else like it in flat screen gaming either. But there are people making mods that convert a lot of flat screen favorites to VR games.
I want to tell you not to wait. That you'll kick yourself for it. But I'm not a fan of any of the headsets out now. Lot of good technology compromised? The PSVR2 means dealing with Sony. I did not like being captive to their platform. Be nice to see HTC produce something good again. They have made a lot of missteps. But we'll see?
@@glenrisk5234 So I went ahead and ordered a Valve Index, apparently the base station equipment is likely to be compatible with future Valve headsets. Easy to upgrade and I like the ease-of-use with Steam. I could be waiting years for new headsets if I didn't decide soon. RTX 3090 + Valve Index should be a good experience 🤣
@@EhurtAfy I'd recommend quest pro for the lenses. Because it's pancake and the optics are really good. No warping on the outer edges and the sweet spot is basically the whole lens. Pair that with a 4090 and Skyrim might as well be a real world. You haven't seen next gen until you install 8k/12K textures in Skyrim and feel the world become real.
Is it possible to achieve this power?
Man, I've been modding Skyrim VR for half a year and it's a complete masterpiece, thanks to the community of modders
Absolutely agree! The difference between Skyrim VR vanilla and modded is really night and day.
This is the first time I’m seeing this after extensive pc modding hope they do fo4 too!
mod list please :)
You guys know of any video that would be the best guide to getting here?
@@danielbowersmusic this should work for you ua-cam.com/video/1qQ3QZ6eURE/v-deo.html
Scariest thing in Skyrim VR for me is Lydia, the way she just appears right behind me sometimes is stressful!
There is a mod for that. They keep the distance if you so wish :)
I don't like the huge spiders, the only video game monster that makes me really uncomfortable.
@@Jianju69 theres a mod for that as well, makes them into bears
Whatever problem you have... there's a mod for that
Ahah it's true that NPCs don't really have a concept of personnal space. Not a problem on a 2D screen, but surprisingly uncomfortable in VR.
Yeah, its pretty much impossible to describe the difference between a 2D screen and stepping into VR. It has to be experienced, its crazy that you can sometimes feel things cause it is tricking your brain into thinking that you are there.
Absolutely! Especially NPC's who are walking in your field of view all of a sudden.
@@PredCaliber I've always wanted to try it, but I get motion sickness pretty easily, and I'm afraid it would happen quickly with VR. I also get a "sketchy"/untrustworthy feeling from the companies that release VR headsets (especially Facebook).
@@guruthosamarthruin4459 There is a teleportation function as well where you can “teleport” a couple of meters every time which is the most comfortable method of playing for people who experience VR nausea. :) also The Oculus Quest 2 doesn’t require a META/Facebook account anymore.
i always emphasize the change in SCALE to people who haven't played VR and Skyrim is one of the stand-out examples of that. My mind was blown the first time just doing the character creation and being able to walk around the created avatar. blown away by the presence of an NPC standing next to me at scale. And this was all with vanilla Skyrim VR. Can't wait to try it with all of the new mods.
Sounds amazing, is it neeeded a high end pc to experience skyrim in vr?
"Tempting every time you are with an NPC to grab her.... *pause* ... and look into her eyes."
There is nothing closer to having a holodeck than stepping into Skyrim VR, the towns, the politics, the quest, there is so much there compared to a dungeon crawler. Also, the immersion, everything from fighting dragons to creeping through caves and tunnels. One of my best moments was walking in the woods and hearing a wolf growl behind me, and physically turning in time to draw my bow and shoot it in midair as it was attacking me. No flat screen experience will ever feel that real and you will never feel the thrill of beginning in a world that is alive around you.
The modders have done amazing work, it is a shame that Bethesda doesn't contract some of them out, to make an official modded release for consumers. There are a lot of people who will never experience it because they are afraid or do not know how to add mods.
Just coming out of the cave by the first set of stones with the lake to the left, and the night sky with aurora overhead reflecting on the lake. That is still my biggest WOW moment in VR.
I often just sit around in this game in scenic environments to relax.
Next step: go outside
@@joshuamiller8235 Joshua, I also remember the first time I saw there was more than one moon, "I was like, wow I am not in Kansas anymore," it made me really feel like I was in another world. I also just sat staring up for the next 5 to 10 minutes.
how can i add mod to a game?
You make me want to clock out and install this game right now, sir!
11 years later, skyrim is still the best gaming experience. Who would have thought that 11 years ago.
that's how you can tell, Skyrim was the world game champion of the decade (at least for me, I'm building up my new computer for each release ahah)
Sex with NPC's has just gotten a new meaning
Yeah that was pretty funny... talking about real people like they're npcs
You're right, VR is not just a gimmick, it really is a new type of human experience. On par with swimming underwater, flying, driving, drugs, space travel, etc. I used to think VR was just another fun peripheral like motion controllers or camera sensors, but it really does so much more. It is the most intuitive way to interact with three-dimensianal environments and media. I often feel like, "this the way games were meant to be played."
« Drugs » 😂
3:44 “Anything you can imagine to do in the real world with NPCs (or with… people I should say….)”
😂😂😂
Just waiting for the first criminal defence: “Your Honour, I thought I was in VR and they were NPCs!”
To be fair, most people are in fact npcs.
« NPCs have rights too, you are declared guilty! »
This is by far your best SkyrimVR Video yet. Congrats, I was really engaged.
Thanks a lot! Great to hear! 😀
There is one thing still missing. The most important thing that skyrim needs, to have really everything we always want it to have: a coop multiplayer. That would be a dream come true
Now it needs reactions to improper touching and personnal space invasion of NPCs :p The slap/punch in the face mod.
Totally agree. Kind of breaks the immersion just being able to grab anyone and play with them like a compliant ragdoll. Not that plenty of players wouldn't prefer it that way 😅
@@EarlyMist lol
@@EarlyMist Yeah, kinda hard to keep belief suspended when you get the entire town against you for accidentally stealing a plate but are able to just yank women npcs around like nothing matters
@@mannymadeanewaccount haha. Too true
Property damage vs physical or sexual assault works with a different Jury in Skyrim

Modders are the best thing about the ES community
Absolutely agreed!
Pred you're at 65k dude ....wtf. ive been here so long i had no idea you started growing so much.
im glad!
Thanks a lot! Really glad about that as well! :) let’s hope 100k somewhere end of next year!
This is sick. I honestly didnt think this would happen so early in VR development.
Looking forward to your future VR Mod updates! ✨💖✨
This is a great video! I loved skyrim back in the day when i played it on xbox, these days i have a VR headset and decently powerful PC, you've convinced me to try this out with all the mods. Thank you! :)
Would love a video of you modding Skyrim VR and playtesting to make sure the mod list is stable ))
Well I have 60+ hours or so now in my modlist :) play it almost every day if time and weather allows it! (Summer heat at the moment is really preventing me to play it hours. Else I can literally play Skyrim VR for hours. )
I share the same concern with stability. I used packs of supposedly vetted mods and my game always became unstable with crashing and save corruption. It was frustrating to keep having to restart or rollback saves in an effort to avoid whatever corrupted the game saves and started all of the crashing.
The engine is pretty old now and it would be awesome to see a refreshed version.
There is truly no other experience like it in VR currently
I have to agree, I started Skyrim VR a couple years ago and I can never go back to regular Skyrim, the experience is something you can't go back from.
Incredible video, now I really want to play this.
Skyrim vr is truly the best vr experience out rn. Play it more than any other game. Simply amazing
Absolutely!! Love it every day still!
Wow, I played Skyrim with mods a couple of years ago. Such a big change in 2022. This is amazing! I'm going back.
I have a quest and also now a pico neo link 3, the advantage of the pico is it uses a display port connection for PCVR instead of usb/wifi/video compression so it's a full pcvr experience without compromise also comes with effectively an elite strap and the battery is at the back for balance, if your in to PC gaming I'd recommend it over a Q2
first time i've seen an example that didn't include partial hands and crappy graphics, now this looks amazing just like you were there. BTW he seems in love with the one female would have been nice to see a dungeon and a monster or two for example. then again she had ah nice big firm eyes so i can't blame him.
Her eyes are certainly plump
I dread to think the kinds of things that get done to female NPCs in SkyrimVR
Thank you so much for this video. I always had the impression that Skyrym VR is the best VR-game out there.
Hope this catches on and becomes main stream.
how much fps do you get on the outside areas? are you using ASW or not? are you using any supersampling(oculus app, steam render resolution, skyrim vr performance settings)? Loved your mod list, I am going to buy an 3080 to run it myself, but just wanna check this details first, thanks for the content
I firmly believe that VR / AR will be the future of most kinds of media consumption, at least for individuals or smaller groups, but it isn't going to reach that point until it's basically plug-and-play, it's a lot more comfortable and intuitive, and the cost of entry comes way down.
IOW, everybody I've personally introduced to or have been a part of their introduction to VR has been blown away and wanted that experience, but even for me if I take a break it's almost like I have to back up several steps to figure out the current state of things, re-set settings I've forgotten, etc.
It's a commitment in time and energy that most people aren't going to take on, and most probably just don't have the tech savvy for. It's why Meta is pushing their experience in the direction they are.
When getting into and running a top-tier VR experience is even close to as easy and intuitive as running a top-tier pancake experience, you're going to see VR explode.
Until then it's just too big of a hurdle for true wide-spread adoption.
As someone who's owned an Index for a year and a half, there are some days where I want to put a headset on and be immersed in a world like I'm there, and there are some days where I want to sit my butt in a chair and play something on my monitor or TV. I can't see into the future or know what my opinion will be in ten years, but I also don't see myself ever hitting a point where I never want to be lazy and physically relax playing a video game, even if it truly becomes plug-and-play.
PSVR 2 will make that happen. It's going to be so good and just plug and play. Even has automatic IPD detection and adjustment.
@@lanceolson5988 **unless we get to a point where VR is so comfortable and light you can just wear it all day and utilize AR monitors to play the 2D games via AR.
@@nebgons4794 Very true, and the reason why I said that I can't see into the future or know what my opinion will be in ten years.
@@lanceolson5988 There will be room for both, and it will all become more more seamless.
Oh God I'm falling in love with skyrim all over again...
For me, it's the closest to feeling like you're in sao with a rich world and creatures. I hadn't played vr in a long time. But seeing alduin fly across the sky as big as he is never gets old. My jaw drops. Upgraded from a rift cv1 to quest 2.
The major things I disliked about Skyrim VR is the wonky furniture sizes and oversized food and stuff. Also, the game engine's graphics, even modded, felt like I was in the old 32 bit SLE world. Things like TAA/SMAA, Ambient Occlusion, was so low res looking it made my eyes hurt. VR is definitely one of those things that you need a great amount of visual fidelity and clarity, if not, you could be motion sick all day even when you've already got your VR legs trained and do fine in other titles.
The graphics- especially with the mode community working on it- is perfect. The next step is improving the AI so that the worlds become more complex and the character interactions are more realistic.
As a dedicated VR developer, Love the VR Love! Project AHO almost made me forget my real life...
Awesome video 😎👍, which VR headset are you playing on...
I have to say that seeing him giving little slaps in npcs back and shoulders like a drunk buddy is absolutely funny
This makes me really feel like....I can't wait for ES6 and a few years after it comes out. New VR tech in like 6-7 years from now with all the new graphics power we'll have... Super excited.
Exactly.
Tbh, the wait for ES6 is worthwhile for this reason. It means the VR experience for it is going to be insane.
Awesome video ! I would like to play Skyrim VR , which VR set is reccomended ?
You are so right, I love Skyrim VR to.
I have like 200+ mods installed which doesn't impact performance. I am still looking for more mods to improve immersion. Skyrim VR should be modded 100% by everyone.
Absolutely! Difference between vanilla Skyrim VR and modded is night and day.
What mod makes everything look shiny and reflective, like high quality texture mapping ? Like in the video ?
@@greyghost1379 Afaik it's ENB mod, my guess is "Scenery ENB VR".
@@greyghost1379 Probably the ENB, one thing ENBs do is make things shiny in the rain (a bit too much for my taste, but you can change that yourself) and also the texture mods themself can make a big difference
The only reason I'm interested in getting a VR Headset is for this game. Just the thought of standing on a mountain and looking out towards the horizon is enough for me to start saving up. I remember I tried out VR about 2 or 3 times at various events and even with my big ass glasses the experience stuck with me. Just having that depth is something that people don't understand till they experience it. And that was with some demo games lol. So a full game would be something else.
you can buy subscription lenses for your VR headset :)
waiting for my Kat Walk C2+ ... cannot wait to play it with Skyrim VR 🤩
Thanks for the mod preview. I already own the non-VR versions for a few different platforms, but have been waiting for the VR version to go on sale. Today it did (through GreenManGaming), so I picked it up, finally. I imagine I'll be spending this weekend installing all the mods. lol
I own just about every psvr game and there are 2 games I always go back too.Skyrim and Borderlands 2.I would love to play Skyrim on A PC but this will do for now.
My man, if I could hug inigo in VR...
Yes you can :)
Fluffy Inigo VR cuddles
Dream come true
5:20 how many people thought he was gonna grab something else. 🤣
00:46 Look at the size of those peaks!!! Those mountains are huge too.
I have never played in VR but Skyrim would surely be the one to make me get into it.
I'd love to hear your recommendations on the hardware that is avaialble and good choices to buy.
Plus how to set up a gaming environment - are you sitting, standing, moving around? How much space do you need? Is there a HDMI cable connecting you to the PC or is it completely wireless?
Perhaps you could consider a new video along these lines?
Just get a quest 2 and get walking dead saints and sinners and resident evil 4. If you never played VR then those games will blow you mind. It will be like rediscovering gaming all over again.
Quest 2 if you don't have a powerful PC and want more freedom. If you'd like something more high-end, Valve Index is still your best choice, but you'd need a powerful PC.
I personally use Valve Index.
My rig is:
GPU - GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 3070 8GB GDDR6 GAMING OC
CPU - AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core 3.7GHz AM4
Motherboard - ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING
RAM - G.SKILL Aegis 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz CL 16
SSD - ADATA XPG GAMMIX S11 Pro 1TB 3500/3000MB/s
Power Supply - Corsair CV650 80 PLUS Bronze 650W
It's 2 years old and it runs everything I throw at it.
On both you can play either seated or standing (Playspace walking/movement is also an option for most games, but only a few utilize it for real).
The configuration for both (Quest 2 and Valve Index) is extremely easy and if you get stuck, there are many online tutorials that can help get everything up and running.
For Skyrim VR, Valve Index is what you'd want to get. Have in mind that the base VR port of the game is hard to control (the button mapping is awful), the graphics are dated and the tutorial aria is useless. If you want to play Skyrim VR, you better spend day or two scrolling nexus mods. For the controls, there are many prebuild configs that you can use and it's up to you to choose what suits you best.
If you choose to get into VR, I would recommend you start with the following games (Vavle Index point of view):
1. Beat Saber
2. Superhot VR
3. The lab (Valve's project)
4. Google Earth VR (it was impressive to me)
5. Accounting
6. Job simulator
You can also try some of the google's spotlight stories (those are short animations).
* The above mentioned are in no particular order and can be enjoyed at your own pace.
If you want to fix the motion sickness, my fix was to beat Boneworks. I played Boneworks for about a week and at first you are more than likely to feel sick with the continues movement. It's best if you play the game for one, two hours and take a break. Your hands would feel small in your peripheral vision after you take off your headset :D
After Boneworks, I no more have any issues with continues movement and that pays off when you play Skyrim, Half Life, Blade and Sorcery or any other game that supports continues movement.
And at the end, I would like to be completely honest with you when I say:
Those word's might be a bit harsh to someone that want's to get into VR, but It's what I would have liked to hear beforehand.
VR is a bit overrated at the moment as most games are more like tech demos. Fun but short, expensive and not that deep.
Have in mind that most UA-cam VR channels make everything look fun and exciting, but in reality it's not that special. There are some cool places here and there, but most of the time it's nothing that you haven't seen before in other flat screen games.
Best advice is to measure your expectations, learn to roleplay and enjoy the experience. Have fun!
@@no7r3k That's a brilliant answer, thank you. I have very similar specs to yours but only got the upgraded GPU and CPU in the last week so looking at what more I can use the PC for :)
@@donkeysunited Valve index is old at this point, with a bad LCD display, low resolution, and it's pretty heavy. Yet the whole system is one of the most expensive.
I'd recommend the HP Reverb G2.
It has significantly better visuals - way higher resolution, better colours and contrast, black levels. The headset is much lighter and more comfortable, and it uses the same great audio as the Valve index.
It also doesn't require any base stations to set up for the controllers, as it uses inside out tracking like the Quest 2.
If you really want the index controllers, you can also use them with the G2 with a very easy set up, too. Though that will require the base stations of course.
It costs 300 less than the index as well. So I'd highly recommend this headset.
@@zackmac5917 Thanks for that. I also read that the Index is not a good choice for people who wear glasses (like me) as you can't bring the screen near to the eyes, which is supposed to be one of the biggest selling points of the Index.
Your recommendations for the graphics card sort of set such a high requirement which isn't all that necessary. I am about to upgrade my pc but currently I have a RX580 and it runs skyrim vr just fine! The biggest downside is that the start up time takes like 5 mins or sometimes more then again I only have 16gb of ram.
I have to make a little bit of a nuance that mostly Scenery ENB causes the big drop. Did you run other mods for Skyrim VR? Sure a vanilla Skyrim VR runs pretty well on all PC's I guess. :) But with that I would seriously recommend at least to use VRIK, HIGGS, PLANCK, and some NPC overhauls!
I still play PSVR Skyrim on PS4 Pro (uploaded a tour of my Manor recently), might be stock game and very basic graphic but its 60fps and razor sharp edges for PSVR that is impressive. Graphics aside from that the immersion is where it still shines.
I Just installed all the mods mentioned and more, and I've never played Skyrim before and after Elden Ring I want more immersion where I think this will be huge step up :) I finally got the horsepower too when it comes to my PC build to play any game on MAX 60 fps+++++. This will be awesome!
You are 100 percent right people have no idea how good this and VR in general really is.
I hid behind the buster sword ( mod ) when that bleak falls barrow spider was lunging at me.
I had configured the block settings so that raising the hilt by chest height would put me in a block state. With a car door for a sword in front me as a shield, I was able to survive with enough hp. Enough to jump in the air 10 feet high by raising my headset quickly ( mod ) and crashed said car door sword into the spider.
just one of many combat encounters in SkyrimVR. There's enough resources to play as any mythical character you can imagine.
That’s awesome! :) and respect for you deciding to go in melee in Bleaks falls Barrow with that huge spider! Since it’s one of the first big encounters , it Must have been insanely intense going into melee with it haha!
TES VI better be native VR and even more moddable
Nice video man! I have a question, where's the background music from? It's beautiful
I have been out of the skyrim VR mod scene for a year or two now and holy crap its come so far. Ive been in the flat skyrim modspace instead and that has come far as well. I love SKyrim!!
Hey Pred! You should check out an female NPC overhaul called Dibella's Blessing, I use both bijin and Dibella's Blessing together and use EasyNPC to select the ones I like from each mod, it is truly amazing.
Thanks a lot! That is a great tip! :) will check for sure!
Does easy npc work well now ?
I tried it months ago and had a lot of bugs.
I never got it to work, but I saw that there was a mod that utilizes your microphone so you can speak to NPCs (within the bounds of your dialogue options of course). I think it’s called Dragon Speak or something? There are so many immersive mods out there, thank you for your sharing the highlights in your vid and your mod list.
Absolutely, it’s called Dragonborn speaks naturally. It’s a very cool addition!
Thanks, really enjoyed this video
The only thing whats missing is a smoothing of the movements, the stuttering of all movements drives me crazy, in longterm, its a nogo for me. If that could be implemented that would be awesome.
You know, I never had an interest in playing this in VR until you said the word "mods..."
What about the UI? I dread doing inventory management, it is holding me back from giving this a go.
Regarding inventory and such : You can use SkyUI and a mouse cursor you can control with the VR controllers. Works as fast and good as on the PC :)
Just got me a Quest 2 yesterday and is saving up for a Christmas PC so I can spoil myself with Steams VR library lol. Skyrim VR is crazy!!
grabbing a VR set this year, I can't wait
These are great textures, really impressive. Skyrims original textures were so low quality, even for 2011.
We need to incorporate the many sex mods into Skyrim VR.
This looks amazing!! Can you tell me what VR headset is used and I am guessing a Decent PC is required not a console
What mod makes all the quality texture mapping , that makes everything shiny and have depth? Like the reflections on walls and trees.
Wanted to see some sword combat. Can you just straight punch the npcs?
Ultimate Graphics Mod Pack is awesome nice graphics, you should take Ultimate Graphics Mod Pack and make it VR ... :) Not tried the VR Skyrim AE yet so have you got a VR setup wabbajack yet, if not which would you recommend for VR that comes with what is in video. May have to give it a shot, You have a VR one setup on wabbajack because your Ultimate Graphics Mod Pack is awesome my friend.
Thanks a a lot! The link in the video description is actually the VR edition! :) (still beta however)
@@PredCaliber ok thanks will have to give it a try and see how it goes. thanks again for your work on modding skyrim all these years. peace my friend.
Rapid fire bound bow with maxed archery and sneak stats is amazing
omg the gaphics are amazing. btw what headset do u have ? I have Vive pro 2, I woneder how the graphics will look on it :)
I love modded Skyrim a lot, will have to try vr again if I ever get a headset upgrade , it’s rough on a vive, you can really see the screen door effect on this game sadly
Yes the older headsets really have the low res / screendoor effect. The Oculus Rift S for me personally was already really good and didn’t saw any real pixels anymore. It’s also relatively easy to drive since it’s resolution it’s a bit lower than a quest 2.
I think the only problem with the 'attention' is the affordability. I would LOVE to get this experience myself, but simply can't afford it...
Did you consider Oculus Quest 2 as VR driver? The headset is quite affordable (600 $) and it can run some games w/o GPU.
@@germinarih I do have the Quest 2 a few weeks now and it's really impressive what it can do with it's technical limitations, I really like this system.
But it's never gonna run Skyrim VR, not to mention with these mods, without an incredibly expensive high-end PC.
@@XiaoYuanHao it doesnt have to be extremely high end apart from the gpu, and even that you can manage with lets say an rtx 3060 depending on the mods you use
Love modded Skyrim VR (so far I use the modlist Auriel's Dream) and looking into your list. But does yours have an alternate start or is it just the same old chariot start?
I played Skyrim for the first ever time yesterday in VR. It’s on sale rn till the 30th for $15 btw. I was doing the first quest, admiring everything in the game. Gorgeous. Then I got to the rats. Never have I ever swung so wildly at a small critter that JUMPED at me. The spider? Scary, but I killed it off fast. Even dead it creeped me out. The scale of the game is INCREDIBLE. Now, what scared me the most and made me have a breather was the swinging trap. Slayed all the Draugr, went peacefully walking, THEN WHAM! Pressure plate pressed! I had to sit down 😂. The inscriptions that glows? Pulled me in. It was beautiful. Thankfully I had a companion from a mod with me, cause I was stuck on the puzzle door and it creeped me out. Idk why. The lore and wall engravings made me curious, but scared. Never knew you could view the items for puzzles. After I got finished with the first quest I decided “Alright, I’m gonna take a break” took off my headset, thought I played for an hour. I PLAYED FOR A WHOLE 3 HOURS!
I was skeptical with Skyrim VR cause idk what I was getting into. Reason I got it was because I enjoyed StarField, but I never played any other Bethesda game. Then I watched the Fallout series. God I love it. Made me want to play Fallout. Decided “What better way to play than VR?” Heard Fallout VR is troublesome, but still fun with mods, but Skyrim? So many praises. Skyrim has been following my life for years. My cousin and brother loves it. I just never got into it as a kid, also surprisingly never heard of anything plot wise, but heard so many great things. So I’m blank, but I do love medieval stuff, but I’m more of a outlaw cowboy type of guy. So I was skeptical if I should keep the game or not. After that first quest and the journey back, 100% keeping the game. LORDY when people say it’s one of the most immersive games. IT IS! With mods of course, WHICH IS ALSO AMAZING TO BE ABLE TO DOWNLOAD MODS FOR FLATSCREEN SKYRIM TO VR SKYRIM! No remaking it for VR! Even when I was just looking for an area in the town to sleep the night (couldn’t find it) I was sucked in. This video describes things amazingly, even at its surface. What an amazing game, and tbh I don’t think I’ll ever play it flatscreen now. Never had, possibly never will (unless I crave it and can’t access VR)
Planck is a bit creepy lmao
I think in VR a realistic damage mod would make the game way more satisfying and less scary.
honestly just make it like lade and sorcery but they have either magical or physical armor that gives them the difficulty like vanilla
@@colehealey2925 Exaclty! That'd make it beautiful!
I haven't tried it yet, but how do you mean such as mod would make it less scary?
@@Wintran hard to be scared by mobs when you can just decapitate them and move on lol. It'd help with the realism as well.
@@DecoyTroy Haha good point
Oh boy... combine loverslab with all these mods. I can only imagine...
If VR continues this path, The Matrix is going to be possible, and I can’t wait.
Ideally, you want your senses satisfied. The most important one is touch: irl, if you can't see anything, smell anything, hear anything, taste anything, but you can physically feel your environment (pain, heat/cold, texture, softness/hardness), it still grounds you into reality.
Well the best vr ever is the life we live now, perfect graphics, you feel everything and when you die you will be reborn..
@@harpapmac you seem to miss the point of vr ay
This is freakin insane
If Skyrim VR is this epic, then I can't wait to try ES6 in VR. Definitely going to need a monster PC to run it though.
Es6 is going to be terrible. They progressively get worse.
Which VR Headset do you use?
From the thumbnail it looks like the HTC Vive 👍🏼
Quest 2 :). The thumbnail is actually a stock picture haha
@@PredCaliber How does Quest 2 compare to Rift S? Which one is superior?
@@DerekMoore82 I have both, but for me personally the quest 2 with link cable and a Kiwi pro head strap over the Rift S.
The original headband of the quest 2 sucks, but with this pro headstrap the device Feels premium, easy to lift the headset to check things, and a knob to adjust the headset is very good. Also Quest 2 battery life is fantastic, very good visuals, and just a single usb-c cable that always works perfectly fine. Can’t really say the same about the rift S. For the rest the rift S is fine still, and also easier to render things.
Keep in mind the quest 2 also provides you with stand alone VR and has fully wireless options, where the rift S is PC VR only and requires a Display port and USB3
1 Minute in, starts grabbing dolled up, dead eyed npc women. That's skyrim modding allright😂
spell wheel is one of my favorite skyrim vr mods
What headset did you use?? The graphics look so good, was this because of a mod or the headset itself?
ive been wanting to try it, but not sure what equipment I need, (I have an oculus) not sure where to get the game or how to install mods. are there any tutorial vids on how to set up playing this and being able to experience all you guys are talking about with mods? Im not super computer game literate.
Do you think there’s any way my 1080 card can handle the mods you talked about in the video? I’d love to try em out
Imagine a dragon landing and you grab on it as it takes off and lift off with it fighting in the air
hey, this looks amazing, but my space is limited on my SSD. Can I set the wabbajack downloads location for the mod files to an HDD and install location to my SSD?
Or should both ideally be on an SSD?
Best to keep everything at the same (SSD) drive to avoid slowdowns and crashes.
I have a G2 on the way... will put this on my wishlist!
Is there a version of this, or any specific steps, to make it usable on an rx 6600 XT? My cpu is fine, r5 5700g, but gpu is rather lackluster
