Amazing Skyrim Mods That Have Been Forgotten

[@TheCorpsehatch]

I still use Apocalypse - Magic of Skyrim. It's a permanent mod in my load order even when not playing as a mage.

[@HappyBeezerStudios]

Same. It's just such a smooth integration. Truly makes the magic much more versatile and interesting.

[@captainstroudly6393]

It’s in every load order and I always forget it’s there lol

[@RENEGADEJon19]

I love Apocalypse

[@carterneis8469]

Do you get experience for using the spells? I have had issues with that and spell mods. I also sometimes have issues with spells not doing Sun damage with ordinator.

I just played "The Forgotten City" for the first time last week, as it was one of the mods supported by the "Legacy of the Dragonborn" mod. I spent over 12 hours trying to figure out how to get out of that place! Very well written! Falskaar is next on my list to discover.

[@slicksilver9441]

Never heard of falskaar.....forgotten city is good 100%

[@renn6699]

Falskaar is pretty mid.

[@pcdeltalink036]

@@slicksilver9441 I only played through it one time. It's an old mod at this point. One of the earliest "Go to a different map" type of mods and, (imo) it's age is fairly apparent at this point. I wasn't super impressed with it. An ok experience that first time but not one I will ever likely install again.

[@S1gnalC0]

Man the Forgotten City is my favorite mod ever, the first time i played it , it was amazing!

[@alexoxy5061]

Go play the actual game that released a couple of years ago :) It's very good

​@Killer B , I first played it on XBox One back in 2017; loved it so much that even after I upgraded to PC, the mod has a permanent place in my load order.

[@S1gnalC0]

@javoZ32 ik right! Its so good, anytime i play with mods , its on . I love it alot

[@TattleDelta]

I remember the Author facing some flak over presenting non lore friendly elements as lore friendly. Great that they made it into a standalone game.

[@AlternateInfinite]

I had no clue about the dev of forgotten city or the massive success of his mod, wow! Thats really impressive.

[@MarrockV]

I remember playing Clockwork when it was new... didn't really think of it as a horror mod but I did like it a lot, especially that item sorting system it had built in.

[@kylehankins5988]

To be honest I wouldn’t call apocalypse a forgotten mod, I think it’s still one of the most well known.

[@RandomUser2235]

Arcanum is a really cool magic mod that I think deserves that spot instead of Apocalypse because it’s still a top all time mod on Xbox, unlike Arcanum which I have never heard anyone mention as of recently

[@readyforlol]

Same with forgotten city tbh. Idk why the video is titled like that.

[@LolCat361]

That one handed skill going up at the beginning got me

[@BrazenBard]

Not sure if The Forgotten City qualifies as a "forgotten" mod - it got rereleased as a standalone game recently, even!

[@tobybll]

Its so nice, the creator itself told me about his relase on steam because I wrote a huge fking review of his Skyrim mod and how it was the best thing I ever played. He later wrote me on Nexus that he will release his own game on steam, such a cool guy with such an awesome idea

I actually did forget about the make your home mod. Completely forgot about the inspiration for the hearthfire dlc houses. Most of these mods are still around and updated for SE. Nice video.

[@tomascernak6112]

You forgot "moonpath to elsweyr" One of first game extending mods with beautiful graphics, voice dubbing, "new" game mechanics and interesting storytelling. And made before Creation Kit release. So it was brutal hexediting and dissaembling of skyrim source files. Phenomenal feat for their time and still "must play" mod till today.

[@fraustpunk]

That might have been the first mod...

[@tomascernak6112]

@@fraustpunk Story mod for sure, improvement mod i do not think so, there were plenty bug fixes and graphics improvement/change mods. But they were small compared to MtE.

[@JoeyKane7]

I love Beyond Reach. Probably my favorite quest mod of all time for console!

[@ProfessionalScofflaw]

It be better if it was finished.

[@TattleDelta]

I play Beyond Reach if I feel like punishing myself for being too happy. The dialogue also annoys me. Every single person, even the lowest of the low beggar, speaks as if super highly educated. I disabled borders and took a tour of the map and less than half of the mod is even close to resembling being finished. What is there is well polished however.

[@RoleCrow]

If you enjoyed the Forgotten City and want to support the authors, but think that since you already played the Mod you don´t need to play the standalone game, i would advise you to try it out, i played the Mod before the game and the standalone ads so much more to the narrative and changes so much of the world that it feels like a way better new experience!

[@HappyBeezerStudios]

Even the other way around. For everyone who has played the standalone game should take a look into the mod as well.

[@FracturedShadow]

Your video quality is incrediby good. I was checking how many subs you have as i subbed and realized you only have 17k right now, I was expecting at least 1m based purely on how well your video quality is. Keep making videos man, i love watching them.

I wish they brought back the pumping iron mod where your character starts out normal but through work and battle becomes bigger and more muscular. Also there was a mod where you had a wolf pup and it slowly grows as it adventures with you.

Pumping Iron is updated to SE for the AE release. I'm running it on 1.6.1170 at the moment.

Ehh, if you look at the full Eldar Scrolls history you will find out that the emperor has always been a Nord and Dragonborn from the start, the first emperor was actually Tiber Septim who is also the saint/god Talos that the elves want removed as being one. So saying that siding with the Stormcloaks as being a traitor after knowing the full history, siding with the Stormcloaks is actually protecting what has always been from someone that wants to usurp control through a coup in the process of removing the long placed safety from Oblivion that the Dragonborn emperors have been providing.

[@ItzFarmerJerry]

The forgotten city has been in my mod list for a while now. It’s probably one of if not my favorite mod!

[@tobybll]

The Forgotten City is my #1 fav. Quest mod in all of Skyrim. I played it so many times and it never gets boring!

[@jimclayson]

"Forgotten City" and "Clockwork" are couple of my all-time favorite mods... and "Falskar" was also pretty good and definitely impressive. It's been around five years since I played any of them. All of them are a bit dated, but entirely worth playing through at least once. I played through "Forgotten City" (really, really fun premise, once you get into it) and "Clockwork" (the jump scares and suspense near the start are WONDERFULLY implemented... only mod to ever legitimately give me goosebumps) three or four times each, and "Falskar" once. I've never played "The Lost Wonders of Mzark," but it looks interesting and I might have to give it a try sometime.

[@honinakecheta601]

I used to use Arthmoor’s mod Open Cities and in hindsight, that mod was probably why my game was so damn buggy back then

[@TattleDelta]

Yes, Arthmoor used many bad modding practices for that mod, and never updated or rewrote it. Fortunately there are more modern mods that do the same, and they don't fuck your game up when using them.

[@Tearshia]

@@TattleDelta I'm interested. Which modern mods do you recomend?

[@zebracorn4281]

I love the idea of the Rivershack Mod, even though after the Anniversary Edition there's a ton of new great player homes, I still just prefer the amount of storage and ability to grow tons of ingredients in my custom house just north of Whiterun. Even the bigger houses, while giving lots of storage are subpar cause they're usually behind too many load screens. So far my favorite house is the hearthfire one with the name I can't even attempt to pronounce or spell. My 2nd favorite is the Abandoned House in Marthkarth that I use as a home until I have enough money and materials to buy and build a proper home. Somehow the a free home you get from starting a Molag Bol task that you can do very early in the game, has more than enough storage and organization for me than nearly every player home or safe storage area in the game. Only draw back for the Abandoned Home is you don't get the Well Rested perk for sleeping in the bed, and its so far west, its a pain in the butt when traveling, even with fast travel.

[@MZeternally]

Keep it up bro. Channel gonna pop off, just be consistent with it. You got something good

[@walnzell9328]

The Lost City got a boost in popularity from it having a compatibility patch with Legacy of the Dragonborn.

[@DPS_GMs]

Great vid, definitely recommend both clockwork and forgotten city

and falskaar because of just how great the music was for it i could sit on top of the town roofs and just relax to the soundtrack knowing how much good ive done for the main questline

Apocalypse is a staple! But I have to say, I LOVE that you are making these videos! It is like having Bridal back again!

[@svenabel2987]

I recently played the Forgotten City and I was amazed. I probably got the fastest Ending and I didn't replay it yet. Still have no clue on where to find the shoes and gloves of the dwarven armor though. Apocalypse + Ordinator is an absolute blast (Ocato's Recital is still OP af), I usually don't start my playthroughs with a mage build but ever since I used those too mods I at least used more spells or even went for a complete mage build later in the game

[@briangronberg6507]

Forgotten City is extraordinary. I remember playing it on Halloween so you can imagine how I jumped out of my chair at “look behind you.” It took a few times but I finally got the best ending on my canon Last Dragonborn.

[@irystocrattakodachithatmooms]

I personally recommend Project AHO as it is one of the best story mods ever made. It has an introduction on par with the base game introduction. The voice acting is also top notch and lore friendly down to a Kajiit speaking in the third person. It also expands on the Dwemer in a more sci-fi manner unlike most other mods. I mean, come on, what isn't great about looking into a Dwemer space program and poking about in custom ruins?

[@electronix259]

The Riverside Shack was so amazing for its time, oh the memories

[@leonisadonis]

So what I heard from Clockwork is that it's a horror mod which after you complete can keep for yourself. For those who don't know that's how you get a cheap and really good home back in Oblivion. It was one of the coolest quests in the game and this mods from what I heard does the same which is really cool.

The camera angle, lighting, effects, and camera movement are all the same, and the quality of this shot in this video is noticeably worse because @falldamge just cropped the top and right part of the video (most likely to avoid the spell name and description that Brodual put at the top right part of the screen).
