Skyrim - Music & Ambience 

It almost feels like I lived a second life in this game

"I was born too late to explore the seas, and born too early to explore the universe, but I was born on time to explore Skyrim"

Skyrim is like an old friend you haven't seen in years, but when you actually meet him, it's as if nothing ever changed...

I always abused fast travel when I was younger but now I’ve realised that taking time travelling the roads and experiencing all the sights, sounds, ambience and encounters on the journey is really what makes the game shine.

“We didn’t know that we were making memories, we just knew that we were having fun.”

There was nothing more magical than that first time when you set out to explore the world after Helgen.

Played the game like 12 years ago.. I was 17 yrs old.. And now am goin 30 in july.. laying next to my wife whom asked me to play calm music And i came here, she fell asleep in seconds She isnt a gamer, she doesnt even know much about video games or ever heard of skyrim But listening to this took me 10 years back.. when i was just a kid with no responsibilities I read alot of the lovely comments here And am so proud being part of this community.. Greetings from Iraq.🎉❤

"A Nord's last thoughts should be of home."

Damn, I wish I could experience this game for the first time again

“I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them.” - Andy Bernard

bro the distant hammering of someone on the forge and the dog barking hits different

It's odd, but I still have yet to find an open world video game that makes me so at peace like Skyrim did. It was such an incredibly immersive experience.

Every time I listen to music from this game , I get homesick for a place I’ve never been

I'd pay an absurd amount of money to replay this game for the first time one more time

I’ve never played Skyrim but I’m going to for the first time tomorrow. Wish me luck boys :)

This very mix here helped me get through therapy for PTSD from domestic violence. My therapist asked to establish a safe place to mentally retreat to while I was processing the memory, but the one I made up in my head wasn't working. Then I had an idea. I used to use the Skyrim OST for studying because I had such positive feelings associated with my time playing the game, so why not use it here? It worked extremely well. Thanks Everness, thanks Todd Howard and thanks to everyone who was involved with making this game.

Personally, this music will forever remind me of a time where life was simpler, exciting and when the future still held tons of potential that made you wonder what would happen next.

My dad used to play this game all the time for years before he passed away. Every time I hear the ambience in the first 10 mintues, it reminds of of all the late nights where I would be going to bed and he would still be up playing, looking for alchemy ingredients, or the early mornings where I would wake up at 5 am to him being being screamed at by a dragon. I'm missing those days now. Brings tears to my eyes.

Jeremy Soule is a legend. What a composer.

Everytime I see and listen to this I sit in deep thought about how I'll never be able to feel as whole as I did on a late dark night of exploration through this absolute masterpiece. Skyrim was more than just a video game, it really felt like it ment something to me and others. Unfortunately now with age that feeling is gone, although time is fleeting, memories last forever 😢

Do you guys ever hear this music and think "yes I'm glad I was born to experience this"?

I will never get over how beautiful this soundtrack is. It sounds like home.

This may sound cheesy but what gets me about this is that the music wasn’t just a theme to a game. It was a theme associated with a particular point in my life. This music not only transports me back into a world that captivated my imagination but it also takes me back to younger days when me and my wife first met, still young enough to essentially have 0 responsibilities and how we would just close the curtains, buy some munch from the local shop and just take it in turns watching each other explore Tamriel for hours and days on end. Makes me smile every time. 😊

Well no childhood memories for me from this. I was 46 yrs old when Skyrim released LOL.. and all this music still sticks with me now 11 yrs later and retired. I can't even imagine having this experience as a child or young man.. that must have been amazing.. but I am just happy to have had this at any age.

Anyone remember just walking through a forest in Skyrim and hearing that ambient music ❤❤❤❤

*"Be Safe Out There, Traveler"*

I still remember when I first emerged from the Helgen caves. The music change, the noise, the light. Running down that road to Riverwood was, dare I say, life changing? I had never, in all my years experienced such a gaming moment and likely never again will. This game will forever be one of my favourites.

I've already planned 5 days from next year's vacation leave to replay Skyrim. After 10 years it's time I speak to Lydia again

Skyrim wasn't just a game it was an experience that will forever be with us

"Some may call this junk", "Me I call it treasure".!

This game defined a generation. I remember playing it non stop in 2011, it truly felt like a second life.

I've listened to this soundtrack for thousands of hours. Playing the game was just a fraction of it. I listened every day while I read, study, or walk. The soundtrack is warmth

"Did you see those new guards from Hammerfell? They have curved swords.....currrrved...swwwwords."

I play this while Doordashing and it feels like I'm on an epic side quest with every delivery

Jeremy Soule is one of those rare souls who can make music sound like a conversation, an atmosphere, a place, time and feeling all at once.

Crazy to me that when skyrim came out i was a junior in high school. Now I'm pushing 30 still occasionally playing this masterpiece. Listening to the music makes me tear up thinking back to the first time I loaded it up. I'm excited to what they have to offer next even if it's still years away...

studying exams while this plays, makes me feel like I'm in the mage's college studying ancient tomes

We all played skyrim for at least 500 hours. We heard these songs for at least 1000 times, but still we come back to this video to hear it even when we're not playing :')

The atmosphere in this game is just on another level. Starfield cannot compete.

One of the greatest games of all time. I remember growing up watching my dad play this game for hours. We connected over the shared experience of finding new places, completing quests, and talking about what or where we would go next. God I miss those days. This game will always have a special place in my heart. Love ya dad.

"May the gods watch over your battles, friend".

You’ve been a good friend to me. That means something.

ни одну другую игру я не проходила столько, сколько проходила Скайрим. и ведь каждый раз всё равно хочется перепройти еще раз. такая родная музыка, с первых секунд погружаюсь в тот мир, я действительно дома.

It's funny but I know that everyone who has watched this video feels exactly the same thing as me. As if we all have the same memories together, the same longing for this virtual world. I consider you all my friends, even though I've never met you.

Quite literally one of the best games ever made, a true masterpiece.

*_What It's Like To Be In Skyrim Cities During The Day_* *Whiterun:* Fresh air. Cobbled roads worn by the feet of old friends. Dogs barking and children laughing. The murmur of the marketplace. Puffy white clouds skating across the sky, overhead the thick stone walls that keep us safe. Clanking and grating sounds from Eorlund up at Jorrvaskr's Skyforge. Flowers & shrubbery brushing against the warm wooden walls of homes & shops. Idle chattering of the guards. The Companions yelling and laughing as they train to fight for us. This is home. - *Solitude:* Deep breaths. The clanging of palace bells. The bargaining shouts of merchants. Footsteps, both hurried and relaxed, tap-tap-tapping across the streets. Wooden doors open and shut from houses and shops as the citizens get ready for the day. Children burst out of their homes, giggling uncontrollably. The sound of lutes from the Bards College. The sea splashing in the distance, quiet but audible. Salty scents wafting through the docks. Tall, gorgeous towers and elegant architecture stretching high into the pale blue sky above, reminding us that we are more than we appear. This is home. - *Windhelm:* Snow crunching under boots of the wealthy and bare feet of the poor. The somber hum of the tavern, drums booming inside. Angry shouts of Nords & Dunmer. Rickety wooden doors creaking from inside the Gray Quarter. Looming boats bobbing in the frigid sea outside. Soft laughter from the old married couples of wealthy families. Argonians growling to themselves among the thumps and clanks of the docks. Blue flags whipping in the icy wind, over our heads as we silently live our lives. This is home. - *Markarth:* Tall grass blowing in the wind. Unlucky beggars muttering about the gods. Boots thunking on the uneven stone steps. The exhausted clunking of pickaxes down at the mines. Water burbling underneath the creaky wooden bridges. Guards scoffing at the citizens. The near-silence of the tavern, interrupted by the occasional bar fight. Golden Dwemer-designed doors scraping against the stone walls. The air is clean, but tinged with smoke and fear. Steam and metal clicking noises echoing from inside the palace. Guard dogs snarl out by the stables. Children walk close to their parents, proof that we must fight back against the rules binding us. This is home. - *Riften:* The smell of wood burning hanging in the air. Autumn leaves crunching underfoot. Unnerving noises echoing from the sewers. The hesitant clinking of septims in the marketplace. The scent of salt and fish wafting in from the fishery. Rugs being hung outside and beaten, filling the air around them with dust. Sly voices intertwining with defensive ones arguing over prices. Mead bottles, empty and full, roll across the bumpy cobblestones. The blacksmith grunting as he wipes the sweat from his brow. Fabrics swishing over the streets as wealthy crime families stride along them, untouched by their conscience. Water in the sewers below churning, much like the suspicion within us that we try to fight. This is home. - *Falkreath:* Dirt roads scuffing against worn shoes. The feel of cold gravestones. Sunshine inappropriately warming the buildings. Bleak sighing from both guards and citizens. Dogs barking being hastily hushed. Tiny purple flowers are quiescent, nestled in the browning grass. Wind moaning through the streets, buffeting the wooden signs hanging on houses. Long, torn purple banners flapping dejectedly, mirroring our struggle to stay positive. This is home. - *Winterhold:* Wind shrieking above the small buildings below. Guards plodding up and down the snowy street, refusing to go near the College. Watchful eyes of magic users burning into the backs of citizens. Shop owners smiling despite their monetary struggles. The sea roaring beyond, forever scarring the people. Inviting music floats out from the tavern, providing solace in this desolate place. Light spirals up from the College, an attempt to feel pride in our city once again. This is home. - *Morthal:* Croaks of creatures in the marshes travelling in the wind. Cool air drifting in from the waters. Spots of snow spraying into the air as merchants and citizens walk by. Hushed rumours passing from person to person. Weak sunlight breaking the dark pine trees. Quiet warnings to children about behaving, or the vampires will come. Footsteps quickening as they pass the wizard's home. Guards sympathetically trying to reassure the uneasy citizens about the Jarl, even though we want to take charge of our troubles alone. This is home. - *Dawnstar:* Miners whistling as they lug materials around. Wooden carts rolling and bumping along, full of ore and tools. Tired gazes following each other. Children laughing in the face of hardship. The tavern crooning with music and warmth long into the night. Grey clouds diluting the sun as the day wears on. Boats and fishing lines wobbling in the water. Mutterings of rival miners making their way across town. Insecure faith in the gods wavering, as we try to cope with our nightmares. This is home.

To anybody who's reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind. May clarity replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill your life. 🙏

I played this in my teens… now my kids fall asleep to its soundtrack while I lay next to them and reminisce

Skyrim is more of a home and state of mind then just "video game".I am playing Skyrim on and off for almost 9 years and i am probably not the only one.

My math teacher plays skyrim ambience whenever we take tests and quizzes. despite me being horrible at math, the only reason i liked the class was because of her, and her amazing taste in video games. i was so happy when she first started playing it in september. i seriously need to thank her before the year ends.

You can never forget something amazing as you first play through Skyrim. Hearing the music, the funny jokes, discovering new places, interacting with characters and investing in their stories, collecting every shiny item you came around, going into a tavern to see your favorite ally and follower, and finally modding the hell out of it to make it as real as possible or as jiggly as possible if anyone catches my drift. You can never forget the feeling, NEVER

Always journey on foot, never use fast travel, so worth it.

It's all fun and games until- *A* *NEW* *HAND* *TOUCHES* *THE* *BEACON*

What i would give to experience Skyrim for the first time again

This game was ahead of it's time. It still great to play even in 2024. So much atmosphere. Great music, visuals, voice acting, and a huge land.

Ahh, the one thing I'll never change or mod. The beautiful soundtrack.

This feels so surreal. I remember the days when I was a teen, playing Skyrim every day after school. For me this game is more than just a game, it's a story and a living world that helped me to grow up and find confidence in myself, create a dream. Traveling across Tamriel, listening to this music, I remember how incredible it felt and how I wanted to do something alike in the real world. Nowadays, I'm a journalist and a writer. I travel a lot and often go to beautiful places such as snowy mountains and green woods. Every time I do that, I think of Skyrim. I think of this music. And I feel happiness (maybe with a bit of sadness). This one says thank you to everyone from the TES community and to the creator of this mix. May the Moons guide you, friend.

My mom, who is in her 50's, loves playing this game. It's helped her escape reality for a while. She's really good at it, too.

Coming to the end of the woods and seeing whiterun was magical

1:04:26 is for me THE skyrim theme. It just makes me think of this magical world full of adventure

these mixes are literally what got me through my entire 5-year doctoral program. now finishing up the last touches on my dissertation with this playing in the background :)

"Sky above voice within" Rest in peace Christopher Plummer

It has been said in the comments already, but this music is indeed the epitome of "Welcome Home, dear friend."

You can literally do anything while listening to this and it will become the most epic thing in the world. Right now I'm epically washing the dishes

I was here to study, now I'm crying. Memories and memories are coming back from the time where I was thinking about this game at school all day long, waiting to be home to finally dive back in my adventure. I'm so grateful I lived the experience of this game and will forever be

This is exceptionally beautiful and I cannot thank the world enough it exists. Thank you.

this gives me memories of hearing the opening "dun.. dundun" and rushing into the living room with my siblings to sit in front of the tv and watch my dad play, later one I picked up the game and instantly fell in love. i actually started playing through again a couple months ago and I still love it just as much, its so relaxing

48:30 If you are over 25 and own a computer this game is a must-have 🌳

When you play Skyrim long enough to know where every place is...

This game was the reason why i united with a few friends, sadly one passed away not too long ago. A year later one of his best friends gave me an xbox, it had a note and said "here's a present, bitch." We would always joke around about that. Turned on the xbox and he had his house he was working on, just as i remember. If i were only to see him again... Miss you Alex.

The Skyrim community genuinely feels like one of the most wholesome communities in gaming. I love y’all and Skyrim.

Its a rainy, cloudy day here where I live and I'm on campus, studying and doing homework before my next class starts. I really wish I was at home tho playing skyrim. Definitely playing after I go to the gym today.

This takes me back man..... 9 years ago. A different place, a different time. I was a kid still fumbling my way through growing up. Now I'm a man and all i want to do i go back, just one more time.

only started playing the game for the first time like a moth ago. Now i realise how lucky i am to be able to play this for the first time and still have those cherished vibes with me before they slowly disappear. By far the best game ive played.

2019: Nice playlist 2020: Nice playlist 2021: Nice playlist 2022: Nice playlist 2023: Nice playlist

this is actually the perfect studying music

You've been recommened nostalgia. Do not question it. Do not fight it. Enjoy it, traveler.

can't think of a reason why I stopped playing this masterpiece

This music is so relaxing, there are times I would log into Skyrim just to ride my horse, listen to the music, and chill looking at the atmosphere.

It was always heartening to feel love for this game and to see the love others had for it too

Nearly a decade later and Secunda still plays in my head daily.

"My favorite drinking buddy lets get some mead"

I have been playing tabletop RPG's since 1985. When the Skyrim was releases, I felt like I was able to finally see the places I have only could imagine in my mind so far. I honestly spent first hours just staring the at the beautifull landscapes, ruins, cities, people, you name it. I use to think "that castle could be been the one in that Runescape campaing, or in the MERP..." Amazing times. Now I am 44 years old, but whenever I hear Skyrim soundtrack, I am 15 again...

This feels like going home after a long time and finding that nothing has changed and its exactly as you remember it.

And here's the full updated list of the locations, as well as memory serves. Corrections welcome if you notice any! 0:02 - Probably a few steps north of Evergreen Grove. 1:35 - Next to Ustengrav. Only place in the marsh with this view to Solitude. 2:42 - A mysterious location in the Rift, with a view over to the Throat. Best guess would be next to Heartwood Mill. 4:10 - Wow this is obscure. Based on vegetation, I'd say around Embershard Mine, close to Riverwood. 5:05 - Windhelm docks. I hear they don't treat the Argonians right. 7:00 - Peak's Shade Tower, 100%. On the road east from Falkreath. 8:30 - I'd say this is the orc stronghold in the southwest of the Reach, Dushhikh Yal, or something. 10:12 - A pretty bridge in the Rift, next to Broken Helm Hollow. Rumor has it there's some awfully good lumber trades going around there. 11:30 - Sitting atop the Warmaiden's, Adrianne's shop in Whiterun. 13:50 - A good view over the main thoroughfare of Riverwood. Embry, in the distance, is on the lookout for a fresh drink. 14:40 - Riften marketplace. Did you know you can drop Madesi's ring and not have to put Brand-shei out of business? 16:15 - Winterhold and its eponymous college. I hope you've mastered the expert destruction spells. 18:10 - A peaceful stroll in Falkreath. I can hear Siddgeir munching on succulent meat in the longhouse on the left. 20:00 - Vokun hovering about in High Gate Ruins, ready to fireball your face. And all Anska wanted was a simple scroll. 22:00 - Blackreach, quite close to the entrance from Alftand. 22:50 - The bridge to Windhelm. Do you have any idea how dull horses are? 24:25 - And then we head into Windhelm. Hjerim, a potential home (needs a bit of cleanup), on the left. 25:30 - The stairs up to Hillgrund's Tomb, on the road from Whiterun to Ivarstead. Spotted some good game along the way. 27:00 - And this should be High Gate Ruins from the outside. Took me ages to remember. 29:00 - The plains outside Whiterun. 32:30 - Okay you got me. Best guess, near Riverwood, some way east. Hell if I know. 35:10 - Somewhere on the hills near Cragslane Cavern. I think that's the Bonestrewn Crest over in the distance. 36:20 - The Ritual Stone. The necromancer up there s just asking for it. 39:00 - Is this the entrance to Ragnvald? 40:45 - Could be the waterfalls just south of Robber's Gorge. 42:40 - Angarvunde. There's an unfortunate prize waiting for a greedy heart. 44:40 - The view over to Dragonbridge from the south. 46:15 - I'll hazard this is inside Gloombound Mine. Great place for mining ebony, if the orcs don't get you first. 47:19 - Fort Amol Prison. Typically overrun with conjurers and the like - which, in turn, are overrun by you. 48:35 - The main road of Riverwood. With all decent folk off to bed, only the chicken patrols. 50:38 - Solitude, with a view over to the Blue Palace and the Bards College up ahead. 51:44 - Solitude again, high on the ramparts of Castle Dour. A different, bird's eye view of the Blue Palace in the distance. 53:16 - Can't figure out the landmarks; my best guess would be somewhere between Riverwood and Falkreath. 55:02 - On the north glaciers near Hob's Fall Cave. A lone spire of Alftand puncturing through the ice over there. 56:12 - Shroud Hearth Barrow. The bridge to the left of the wall is broken; a shout can carry you across for treasure. 57:53 - I believe this is also Shroud Hearth Barrow, near the entrance where the ghostly Wyndelius recommends you leave this place. Hey, it's just a fabrication. 59:15 - A nightly view over Dragonsreach in Whiterun. 1:01:08 - Reach Imperial Camp, just south of Bthardamz, a vast dwemer ruin. 1:03:28 - The great Shrine of Azura. Your coming was foretold. 1:04:30 - Mara's Eye Pond. The mudcrabs on the islet are fierce guardians to a macabre secret beneath. 1:06:50 - A Dragon Mound, likely north of the pass towards Falkreath, near Half-moon Mill. 1:08:03 - A relaxing bath in the geysers around the Atronach Stone. 1:10:15 - Sleeping Giant Inn, Riverwood. Delphine sweeping away, and nope, Orgnar ain't got potatos in his ears. 1:11:42 - The Bannered Mare, Whiterun. Mikael keeping the folk entertained, as befits a bard of his talent. 1:14:04 - Jorrvaskr, Whiterun. Aela and Farkas engaged in a staring contest across the table. 1:15:30 - Mistveil Keep, Riften. The Jarl's throne sits empty (probably best so), while Wylandriah rummages about, probably having misplaced something. 1:16:06 - Standing upon the walls of Jorrvaskr, overlooking the Wind District. 1:17:38 - Solitude Harbor, lollygagging outside the Red Wave, an infamous pirate vessel. 1:18:55 - A glorious view over Markarth and Understone Keep. 1:19:52 - The White River, just west of Riverwood. The salmon are jumping upstream, no doubt on their way to the Guardian Stones. 1:21:38 - A part of the external ruins outside Snow Veil Sanctum, on the forbidding wastes far north above Windhelm. 1:23:20 - This is in Alftand, the Animonculory section. All kinds of glittering treasure on the sides - if your fingers are nimble enough. 1:24:26 - I would believe this is Mzinchaleft, due to the warmer hues of the place. Southwest of Dawnstar, and filled with all manner of vagrants. 1:25:45 - On the beach outside Hela's Folly, northeast of Dawnstar. There's an argonian, Deekus, minding his business and the pickings of the wreck. 1:30:25 - The moons, Masser and Secunda. Seen from where, beats the crap out of me. Would presume high up north since the air is very clear. 1:32:37 - Brittleshin Pass! Damn this one took me forever. A great shortcut from the plains of Whiterun back to Lake Ilinata. 1:34:42 - Blackreach. The place is immense. There's also a chance for a Dragonborn to awaken a slumbering beast. 1:36:40 - Mixwater Mill. Tucked on the side of a sightly road south of Windhelm. 1:40:35 - Just outside of the Helgen Cave, on the road north towards the Guardian Stones. Bleak Falls Barrow looming in the distance. 1:43:00 - On the banks of the river looking up towards Lost Valley Redoubt. Some nasty rituals going on up there. 1:44:43 - Dragonsreach, in the great hall. Jarl Balgruuf in his ubiquitous, lordly pose upon the throne. 1:46:14 - Candlehearth Hall, upstairs. Arivanya sitting up front with a mug of ale, no doubt brooding over the unimaginable boredom of horses. 1:48:22 - The Winking Skeever, the prime tavern in Solitude. Despite the name, Corpulus keeps a clean inn. 1:49:35 - The Silver-Blood Inn. The enterprise is likely the only thing keeping the owners Kleppr and Frabbi together. 1:50:52 - A sight not meant for mortal eyes; this is Sovngarde, the Hall of Shor, guarded by Tsun the Mighty. 1:52:27 - Another shot from the Hall of Shor, where the heroes both old and new revel in the timeless stories of their adventures in life. 1:54:06 - The Hall of the Dead in Whiterun. Andurs, the local priest, has misplaced his amulet in the tomb. There's also a book, Death blow of Abernanit, in the leftmost room. 1:55:18 - I confess, this has me oddly stumped. My best guess is Dustman's Cairn, but if you know better, let me know. 1:56:50 - Anga's Mill, upriver west of Windhelm. What we're witnessing here is the camp of Ennodius Papius, an emaciated beggar. 1:59:20 - The courtyard of Castle Dour in Solitude. 2:01:32 - On the seven thousands steps -pilgrimage up to High Hrothgar. If you've made it this far, you know there's well more than "the occasional wolf or stray" on this path. 2:04:06 - A bleak place called the Abandoned Prison, down the road east from Whiterun and past the Valtheim Towers. 2:05:01 - In the Avanchnzel Animoncultory. This was once a functioning factory for Dwemer Centurions, now a trove of exquisite loot. Just be careful what you take. 2:06:32 - Reachwind Eyrie, southwest of Markarth. A largely useless but picturesque tower. 2:08:44 - A hunter's camp opposite Sunderstone Gorge north of Falkreath. One of my favorite places for a rest. 2:11:07 - Nightgate Inn, one of the rare warm beds on the way from Dawnstar to Windhelm. There's an orc downstairs of peculiar civility. 2:15:17 - Yngol Barrow, northeast of Windhelm. If you're looking to fight in style, there's a helmet like no other stashed here. 2:16:26 - Broken Oar Grotto. The gentlefolk over in this caved-in hideaway are up to no good. And they'll drag you down with them. 2:17:40 - Uncertain of this one, but guessing Fort Sungard, the gigantic fortress up on a hill between Markarth and Whiterun. 2:19:02 - The puzzle door of Korvanjund, where the Ebony Claw will prove invaluable. 2:20:23 - Merryfair Farm, just outside of Riften. As if they don't have it hard enough, some slippery eel took Dravin's bow. 2:21:58 - The Atronach Stone, south of Bonestrewn Crest. Wonderful environment for a relaxing bath - if you don't mind the swooping dragon. 2:24:21 - Serpent's Bluff Redoubt, on the east borders of the Reach. The forsworn might not look like much, but they have an eye for a view. 2:26:00 - I believe this is Eldersblood Peak, on the peak of the mountain directly south of Morthal. The visit is worth the vista alone. 2:28:05 - North of Morthal, some way east from the wreck of the Icerunner.

"As you will my Thane, I'll protect you with my life" - A loyal woman called Lydia.

Oh my, 11 years on and this music still warms my heart in the dead of winter. I think I won't stop listening to and loving this music for the rest of my life. Skyrim played a massive role in my young adult life and I will always LOVE it and the other Elder Scrolls games. When I'm stressed with a work problem or a challenging relationship, etc., I throw on my Morrowind/Oblivion/Skyrim/ESO/(etc.) playlist and the stress gives way to peace.

Skyrim is one of those games that, no matter how much I play or how much content I watch or how much music I listen to, just refuses to lose its magic.

I'm at work listening to this on headphones. This just takes me to a different place. I can actually imagine standing in the tundra of Whitrun Hold, looking up at the Throat of the World.

I cannot stress enough how much this game means to me. It was a truly magical experience that made you feel as if you were actually living the life of your character. And the music just brings back soo many memories, almost brings a tear to my eye.

coming back to this.. right when i heard the music, I teared up.. just so beautiful

Skyrim gave me a wonderful escape during my days of intense anxiety and depression. I'm doing much better now and Skyrim is still one of the most immersive experiences of all time for me. Skyrim and all of its quirks give me a warm fuzzy feeling every time I go back

Coming back to the game in 2020 Guard: "Wait... I know you..." Me: "You have no idea how happy I am to see you and hear those words..."

If your crying over the adventures you've had in this beautiful place you're not alone and I hope one day you have a son or daughter that can have the same experience you did never give up

This soundtrack is my happy place. I could listen to it over and over.

My mum every morning: "You're finally awake!"

I'm crying, i remember playing skyrim for the first time when i was 14. It's insane how much this music brings back memories of when i was genuinely happy with my life. Skyrim isn't just a game, it's an adventure that i always some how, some way Find myself getting drawn back into. Skyrim is timeless and always will be my favorite adventure.

Man watching this makes my time on skyrim feel like a former life I lived.

Secunda still gives me a nostalgia overload. Beautiful.
