Make Your Skyrim Look Amazing With These Mods in 2024 | PS4/5 

The mod authors did a great job for sure. Thank you for watching!

The mod authors did great with the very limited resources that they had. Thank you for watching!

Thank you

I’ll have to check him out, also I appreciate the subscription but this video is the only mods video I have planned for the channel because mods aren’t my speciality and my change is more focused on the Lore and Secrets in Elder Scrolls.

@@AurbisYT As long as it's elders scrolls, I'm happy. Thanks for the content so far. You gotta check out some of the IMPRESSIVE quest mods made for PS4 like "The Wondering Ones" and "The Lost Akaviri Part 4 7000 Fathoms"

Thank you for watching!

Wait how do you do it in ps5? I can't connect to creation

​@@The-last-Zoroastrianits not creation club it's mods it should be in the beginning

​@@The-last-Zoroastrianwhen you first enter the game

@@reptile100viper2 there isn't, only creation that says I can't connect to bethesda that's it

Thank you I appreciate it, the mod authors deserve all the credit though, they did a great job.

Ahh I see, that definitely sounds interesting for sure. Thank you for watching!

Yeah I completely understand, there is nothing like the vanilla feel of Skyrim. Thank you for watching!

You should see my pc modlist. I had a few rules. 1:it has to look like skyrim and remain lore accurate. 2: be as photo realistic as possible. Result. Fully parallaxed photorealistic textures, lighting and weather. It's how skyrim would look if it released in 2024. My mate popped over while i was playing and thought skyrim released yet another game version. He hasnt played since 2016 and couldnt believe how realistic my game looked while still being instantly recognizeable as skyrim.

I really hope you enjoy your playthrough :) thank you for watching!

I’m not actually sure what hair mods would be good. But they just need to be placed somewhere near the top, just make sure it’s under the Unoffical Patch

I appreciate you for watching the video!

Thank you for watching!

I think there is a mod for more rings on PS5

Yeah no worries, I am busy atm but once I have done what I need to I’ll put them in the description.

Ahh yeah how many trophies have you got so far?

@@AurbisYT I'm not sure, I haven't actually looked yet. I know three of them that I have to actively chase are the pick 50 pockets, be wanted in all holds and collect all deadric artifacts. That last one will need a new playthrough because it's a pain. And honestly I'm not going to Ork to hard for that because it can be glitchy as.

Yeah I managed to get all achievements a few years I remember it being kinda buggy. Well I hope it goes well for you!

@@AurbisYT Farcry 3 is the only game that I've received the platinum trophy. For Skyrim it's always been that Daedric artifacts stopping me. Hopefully this time.

I used to trophy/achievement hunt a lot. You will get it done for sure but i understand it can sometimes be a little annoying.

Thank you for watching!

You know you have access to a LOT more mods than PlayStation if your on Xbox right? You have access to mods that actually use custom textures and meshes such as smim, skyland, clevercharff, noble Skyrim ect.

@@user-zq1uc5cg7x yes I use many but often they bug together and some make the game pitch black at night. I like the ones listed here as they make the base game look great. I would like to try some. They should be also on Xbox i think. I always use the Unofficial patch, as my first, although it does not cover most recent anniversary expansion. Unless there is a new version 🤔.

Do you use the EFX Mod I think it’s called? It’s a popular lighting mod but i do know that mod makes the night time really dark.

@@AurbisYT I am currently travelling so not sure, I definitely use few lighting mods for few things and I disabled two lately. Some really make the game pitch black. I remember in one play through doing the Golden Glow estate quest and fighting my way against the mercenaries with a complete black screen because it was nighttime. 🤯. Love mods though. I am even considering buying a Gaming PC eventually because of so many mods to many games. But it is expensive.

I haven’t tried it so I’m not sure :)

I love Inigo but he is very OP. It makes the game too easy. I like Kaidan, again, quite OP, but he is always way (way!!!!!! ) too close in combat and always in my face so I usually leave him at home. But he is pretty good at using any staff I give him. Lucien is good but dare I say a bit annoying? I need to try more mods but some tend to glitch so much. Still so much to discover though. This is the Never Ending game! In 20 years time we will still be talking about mods etc!

Thank you for watching! The coffee mod sounds really interesting.

I have never used a companion mod, which one would you recommend?

@@AurbisYT I've only been on Xbox for a year, so only had chance to try a few, but Inigo is the best so far by a mile! He feels like a real friend & is well loved for that reason! Remiel and Lucien who are Dwemer researchers but can be a little annoying, but also interesting. I tried Xelzaz for a bit when testing mods, and he seems great and to Inigo's level, but he's nearly a whopping 500mb. I was never into followers before, but now experimenting with mods haha. There is a new vanilla follower dialogue expansion series for Lydia, Mjoll, Erik etc, which is still being expanded up on and looks interesting. Works with Inigo, too, as he interacts with vanilla npcs 🙂 I'm not sure if mods like More To Say is available on Playstation, but if it is, I highly recommend that. I'm a sucker for more dialogue options that are vanilla-friendly!

Yeah the Riften mod is amazing. Thank you for watching!

I’m not entirely sure, I don’t think I had one in my load order other than the lighting mods

Yeah

The order of them shown in the video, first mod goes at the top, last mod goes at the bottom. :)

The order of them shown in the video is the order I loaded them :)

@@AurbisYT thank you so much!

I’m hoping Bethesda will go beyond our expectations with ES6 :)

​@@AurbisYTI think they definitely have too. After "breaking" Skyrim mods through various updates and the starfield situation they have to deliver with TES6.

Yeah I agree 100%

They get disabled

Yeah it disables them so you won’t be able to earn them with mods.

Yeah just load them in the order I shown in the video :)

Thanks buddy

Honestly I don’t blame you, I always tend to switch back to vanilla as I love how gritty it is. Thank you for watching.

I'm definitely like that with Morrowind and Oblivion, and don't mind vanilla Skyrim at all. Love the cohesive art style and 'cold' soft colour palette. You have to be so careful with choosing mods so they are as cohesive as possible, or you can end up with a real mish-mash of art styles (which can be fine, ofc, but I'm quite fussy with keeping Skyrim as Vanilla + as possible, and Lore-friendly!)

@@ladyfox6705 same. I can only do mods if they still feel really cannon. Which is why I tend to just use creation club. Tundra homestead is the only mod I choose besides the newest smattering of mods that came with anniversary edition. (Which bothered me, because I didnt know anniversary edition came with mods. It corrupted my save)

@@ava4689 Well AE is just all the CC content bundled up. I got AE on Playstation because we're so limited over there, but on Xbox I'm still on SE. The vanilla + mods I love especially include things like Skyland landscapes, From The Rift to the Reach for architecture (Markarth looks incredible!); I use Realistic Water 2 for my water; a variety of great tree, grass and flora overhauls; Bella's Beauty & The Beast for a vanilla-friendly NPC overhaul (Tragedian's Followers is also great to pair with that); ELFX or LUX for lighting; a simple weather mod like Obsidian 2021, Wander, Mythical Ages (though DAWN looks incredible!) and if you want there are tonnes of great weapon, armour and creature overhauls like Xavbio's, Divergence or Mihails. I'm not really into huge town overhauls, so tend to stick to something very small like the Spaghetti series. Then, the majority of my mods are immersion ones like a great follower mod like Inigo. Others like The Dragonborn Dreams; dialogue expansions like More To Say and Yappers of Tamriel; JaySerpa's Quest Expansion bundle; and the Adventurer's Sketchbook as I'm a sucker for immersion mods! These are all Vanilla + and would pair nicely with any Creation Club mods, plus your game will look beautiful. Vanilla with a fresh coat of paint 🙂

Can you add the natural lighting aesthetic mod without modifying the characters' faces?

Sure thing :)

Yeah there are no limits on PC. For my first playthrough on PC Im currently playing it lightly modded. But after this playthrough I am going to have a heavily modded one I think.

@@AurbisYT epic. Build your own list. Dont go with nolvus. Its a waste of all that space. Also. Try out the latest enb. Picta realis. If it's installed correctly.....friggin amazing.

@@evanoconnell9448 thank you I’ll keep that in mind

It’s all down to personal preference, I like to mix and match my playthroughs.

The good thing about mods, is it’s all about how you like it not how someone else does. If people like yourself don’t like how the mod list looks then that’s perfectly fine you are entitled to your own opinion. But in my opinion I like how my mod list looks and I think it looks amazing, I won’t have anyone tell me otherwise because it’s my opinion. You are free to have your own and I respect that.

@@AurbisYT True. However, mods are really meant to enhance the game or fix bugs, not change it into something else. Therefore, a mod that makes a broken game work better is good, but one that totally changes how the game is MEANT to look/work is not.

It’s all down to personal preference.
