I Made Skyrim's Werewolves 100X More Enjoyable!

[@klavicus2276]

Nice showcase but I personally would much appreciate an overhaul of the werewolf tribe in solstheim. So many werewolf mods over the past 10 years and no one’s focuses on this tribe. You could expand it, make a hole themed cave and maybe even a small questline so that you would have a place and a community you feel connected to like vampires have their castle.

A werewolf sneak mod would be a nice addition. Getting on all fours and stalking your prey.

the lack of sneak is what keeps from doing a werewolf playthrough. Really hoping it can be made one day

[@douwe4254]

Make a combo build with a werewolf and you will kill anything before it really does any damage. You don't need stealth if you can shred.

[@YSleepish]

@@douwe4254 "you dont need stealth" thats not the point at all? itd be cool to have stealth as a werewolf wouldnt it?

[@douwe4254]

​@@YSleepish Sure. It might be cool. But that is where you go vampire. I do play modded werewolf runs, and generally speaking around level 40 I can beat the strongest opponents easy by going on a full focus wolf-build. There literally isn't any challenge left. If you add stealth to that, it would help with immersion and roleplay in a way, but I'd oneshot some dragons at that point. And where is the fun in that.

Just wanted to stick a little note in here, for anyone who already uses Satafinix's Phoenix Compendium AIO mod for sounds, Hypertrichosis is already included in that so you don't need it as a standalone mod.

[@NamelessKing1597]

I do, I love his sound mods, they make everything sound more epic and theatrical. And for people reading this in terms of Werewolves specifically it also includes the mod "Cursed" which changes Sinding's voice to match his beast form. My favorite of his is the one for falmer that gives them echolocation clicks.

[@MemoThePanda]

I really want to see a stealth werewolf, like a crotch button making the werewolf go down on all 4s and creep arrond

[@GloriousZote]

I second this, the entire "werewolves are needlessly aggressive" is getting old - especially considering the companions' strain allows them to control the werewolf form. I also really hate the moutbreathing that werewolves do, as well as the dumb pose, reminds me of the badgers from that badger badger badger song.

[@vormiam9242]

Great mod list! As much as I like moonlight tales, I prefer Lupin, even if it has less features. The perk tree that lets you either give into Hircine and become super beast-like, or resist him and become more human-like while still maintaining werewolf strength is just way cooler than the moonlight tales perk tree. It reminds me of Professor Hulk, combining the brain with the brawn.

[@sanddry738]

The different sound design for the werewolf is 👌. Love the crunch feral sounds

[@fortnitebot3561]

To finish this off I recommend wicked werewolves by rougeshot. This mod changes the skeleton of werewolves to make them look more “realistic”. Works great with all the other mods and doesn’t have any requirements. Next I’d recommend Growl by enaisiaion which overhauls and fixes a lot of werewolf issues making it more worthwhile to become one.

[@GrandmasterplaysYT]

[@joshuaseagondollar2495]

Personally I would recommend Growl over Moonlight Tales. Though a fantastic mod, Moonlight Tales hasn't been updated in 5 years, which means that there could be some issues that crop up due to the game being updated so many times in that time frame. Growl on the other hand is more recent and still has a lot of the same or similar features as MT, such as the lunar transformation and perk tree overhaul. It doesn't have the skins, but there are mods that work alongside it for that.

[@sethsuitor]

I really like Moonlight Tales, but there are some features of growl that I like a little better. Primarily gifting the beast Blood to your followers. As for Moonlight, I like the controllability you get from using the rings and stuff like that. Growl doesn't have enough of the control.

[@albinopanda2318]

These are all fantastic recommendations! Im an avid Morrowind gamer and what i feel is missing in the Skyrim werewolf is the ability to sneak. Some mods like the one that gives you night vision to stalk your prey is kind of defeated when youre sighted from a distance. And this immersion can go great with a mod that adds a feature of LOS aggro where NPCs wont aggro onto you when within vicinity even though youre behind walls etc (i forgot its name but i remember getting this a long time ago). And the ability to jump high, this is also a missed feature as we all know werewolves in fantasy can jump high (take Van Helsing as a good werewolf reference). I hope these ideas come to fruition one day!

[@AWonderingTraveIer]

Maximum gore also makes the combat satisfying sometimes you knock heads off with a swing or see intestines hanging out I think if your a werewolf gore is very important

ya know what would be a great idea for any of these overhauls? as you get closer to the full moon, any dialogue responses you are allowed are the less diplomatic ones. and the few days before & after a full moon, you are ONLY allowed to answer with the aggressive response. any other small things like this would just help the immersive role playing even more, even though it's a small touch

Usually people don't like using Moonlight Tales because of game breaking bugs and they think the mod adds too much stuff, i never encountered these bugs myself but a lot of people complain about them, if you are still considering using MTSE you should also check Lupine, it's expands the werewolf perk tree even further and is fully compatible with MTSE, they are a must in my load order since i usually roleplay as a Hircine champion.

Hey Heavy, first off just wanna say your content is on a level of its own and I fucking love it. I do have a question though; I don’t know the full in’s and outs of the process but I feel like since you already go through the trouble of building these fantastic mod lists for us, it would be pretty easy to upload the mod list to nexus so we can all download the stuff with one click. Is there a reason you don’t do that? To be clear I’m not saying you owe us anything or that I feel like you HAVE to do literally anything. What you give us is already great. I just feel like that’s the next logical step to really make these lists even easier to enjoy and more accessible to those Skyrim fans who are afraid of building their own mod lists piece by piece. Especially if we want to combine separate videos of yours into one play through. Just curious. Keep up the great work!

[@livinginfictions]

The reason people dont do stuff like this is because if they uploaded a mod list to nexus, then it would take attention and support away from the original mod creators.

[@TheBronsonb]

Another idea for anyone that does modding for skyrim and is interested, would have to be adding the ability to sneak as a werewolf and perform takedowns as a werewolf. add some new perks to enhance the damage or make your werewolf quieter. give werewolves the ability to climb on some surfaces like in the underworld franchise and also be stealthy if setting up ambushes, whether out in the wilds, climbing trees and the outer portions of buildings, or inside some of the larger buildings or castles and caves. After all the vampire lord gets in the form of enhanced abilities and movement via bat swarm, werewolves should get some kinda classic and useful ability, maybe just a super jump since they are physically stronger than most creatures, do in no small part to daedric powers and curses, and their physical transformation, though i do like what one of the mods in the video adds, the thermal or predator vision is a great ability. could also add a perk set for the player character for when not in werewolf form that enhances melee damg or makes the player have enhanced movement speed and a slightly better jump height, or an active power that grants predator vision to the player like a usable power for during either the day or night, but with a small time limit(30s maybe?). Anyways, just some ideas for any skyrim modders that might see this comment.......cool video and great mod selection HB....keep it up!

They all look cool. I wish that one day a mod will come out that lets a werewolf live a posh life like the vampires in the Dawnguard expansion. Different clothing and gear of course, but still high class like living and none of the usual tribal elements and styles. In Elder Scrolls Online there is a werewolf mansion / castle with a hedge maze and libraries. Would be neat if werewolves were able to wear specialized armor and gear. Also, it would be cool if a near end perk tree ability lets one turn into a bigger and more stronger version of the werewolf, much like the kind in Elder Scrolls Online. Bigger, beefier, and even a choice of tattoos or none. Perhaps even a character editor so that one may just customize the finished look of their werewolf forms by choosing fur patterns, any tattoos or tribal markings, and even edit the size and proportions.

[@midgetwaffles8635]

I would also like to mention a mod for my fellow Playstation players out there--- Bigger Werewolves. Yeah, it just makes the werewolf models bigger. While it may sound buggy, it's actually completely playable; you are still small enough to fit through doorways, but you're big enough to feel so much more monstrous and powerful than usual. It's awesome, and unlike other size-altering mods, I've never had any problems with it, and I've never had to disable it for any quest.

I love this modlist and agree with it but I have to ask, what do you think about the GROWL mod by EnaiSaion ?

Not having experience with GROWL (not gaming much at this point in my life) I assumed it would dethrone moonlight tales but that doesn't seem to be the case.

[@dogethegamershibe]

I think the issue is the lack of a skin system that allows you to change your skin without having to exit the game. There is also it’s looting system which can sometimes crash on giants and custom creatures when trying to loot them. Growl is definitely more up-to-date and fleshed out, though I think these things are what’s holding it back.

I’ll most of these fixes are awesome, I feel need to push back against your statement regarding werewolf footsteps. You may not be aware but many carnivorous mammals, including dogs and wolves, have padded toes that serve to muffle their footsteps. This allows them to sneak up on unsuspecting prey. As a derivative of wolves, werewolves should, in theory, have these pads as well, thus they too would have muffled footsteps to aid in ambushing prey. Giving them noisy footsteps would just make them less effective hunters.
