Skyrim's Most Immersive Modlist just got an Update... │ Gate To Sovngarde V64

[@JaySerpa]

Wow, this is awesome! 10/10!! ❤ I'll link this in the gallery of the collection, I think it's an amazing introduction to the list and will help newcomers. Thank you so much for the showcase and I'm so happy you enjoyed the list!

[@swiizzles]

@@JaySerpa That truly means a lot to me, so thank you :)

[@laerllik]

At first I thought Jay was just praising his own modlist lmao

[@JaySerpa]

@@laerllik Great modlist! Signed: Totally not its author! :D

[@vergilsgamingchair8772]

You sir, are a certified N'wah. Thank you for the modlist.

[@marley3811]

Damn I had no clue about this list (and I'm quite up to date with mods etc, at least so I thought)... was gonna start a fresh playthrough with Nolvus v6 but perhaps I have to give this a try. Thanks for showcasing it mate!

[@swiizzles]

No problem, hope you enjoy it :)

[@igavinwood]

I had no idea that 'Gate to Sovengard' had been updated with such a massive number of changes. Thanks for showcasing it. Just shows what can be achieved when you consider that JaySerpa started out with no knowledge of modding.

[@AdamTheGuitarist]

Jay has done the best job possible. Previously I have been stuck in modding hell trying to get as close to this as possible but never getting there. Nowadays I just use this collection because it's philosophy is exactly what I think Skyrim could have been had it been made with today's technology but morrowinds mindset. I especially agree with the exclusion of Lotd

[@Sleeprocket1]

Whats wrong with Lotd ?

[@AdamTheGuitarist]

@@Sleeprocket1 unimmersive, takes over whole game, turns it into colectathon. If you like that its okay, but it does not meet the philosophy of GTS

[@reallybigjohnson]

Much more thought was put into this modlist than any other modlist I tried. The others just seem to mash mods in willy nilly without any theme. When I first played GTS I wondered why he didn't use covered carriages but then I saw random carriages were literally on the roads and it made sense. I see couriers giving messages to my followers and other NPCs instead of just me. I have gotten so used to no using the compass that honestly right now I don't want ot use it even if I unlock it and clarivoyance is finally usefull and part of my normal gameplay. Best modlist hands down.

[@anderporascu5026]

Early on, people wanted to make Skyrim, Game of Thrones like being the arcing theme and climate echoed that. For me, making it a realistic medieval sim as well as true to it's roots was my mod list.

[@willem6360]

That's what puts me off for installing Nolvus

[@sillonar]

I hope I'm not the only one but you remind me a lot of Brodual. I've gotten the itch to play Skyrim again just watching his video. I haven't had the urge to play in around 2 years, let alone watch videos on mods/modlists. But the nicely detailed yet spoiler-free description what this modlist offers is really refreshing. I'll be keeping my eyes out for more of your videos, this was truly refreshing. :)

[@BeowuIfs]

Definitely. I think he just talks slower and is less expressive, but the style of the video reminds me of him.

[@TobbenNintendo]

Holy hell this looks absolutely stunning, and it is Skyrim season. This is some great motivation to get myself a new PC as my current setup is 10 years old and in need of an upgrade.

[@lelouche25]

4:50 forsworn strolling casually through imperial camp: Morning Imperial soldier: Morning.... fuck it I ain't on duty yet not my problem.

[@Bryce-t5h]

[@ahapxir]

thanks for making a modlist video that isn’t AI slop and also clearly has personal feedback and useful information. there’s some bad content on youtube just having chatgpt regurgitate nexus mods descriptions

[@Nerf_Craft]

This looks amazing! I just finished my first Skyrim playthrough about a week ago, and I'm eager to start modding. I will definitely be trying this collection either for my next playthrough, or the one after. I can't wait to give this a shot!

[@GabiMartin97]

Right now i'm downloading it. Watching videos to keep building hype... It looks fantastic

[@thatonemayor]

God, I knew GTS was good but this video blew it out of proportion. This was a very well-put together video and you've earned a new sub.

[@chanceinman]

This is a great video. You present information well but in a soothing manner.

[@killer191297]

"preventing you from using them as meat shields". Nah, they'll still be meat shields, just a bit more expensive ones.

[@nikirose7673]

I love the look of this list so much, it's like 98% of my ideal build. Trying to use Vortex makes my head hurt though : (

[@jointjunkieslangards]

Going to need to try this collection in my next playthrough!

[@Han-bw5zn]

Maybe I'll give it a shot in a couple of months, cant right now, I'm too in love with Lorerim. Gates to sovengard and nolvus are on the waiting list.

[@jhood2323]

Lorerim is ass. BuggieBoss couldn’t make a stable modlist if his life depended on it. I’ve thoroughly tested every modlist on wabba and his is by far the most unstable, terribly balanced crash heavy modlist yet.

[@vannysanten]

@@jhood2323 Huh, I've had no issues with stability, but I did only start a few days ago. Why do you think it's unbalanced? And what's your favorite modlist?

[@smaller_cathedrals]

​@@jhood2323I can't confirm any instability, though I have to agree that it's rather unbalanced and consequently no fun to play.

[@smaller_cathedrals]

Definitely give Nolvus a try! I currently have both Lorerim and Nolvus installed. They couldn't be more different from each other, so comparing them is pointless. But at the end of the day, I enjoy Nolvus a whole lot more and rarely load up Lorerim at all.

[@criogen6502]

​@@jhood2323 this is simply not true. If you have regular crashes, you didn't do installation according to instructions. Regarding balance, Lorerim is based on Requiem. The game is hard at the beggining, but very rewarding over time. I played Lorerim for many hours and crashes are very rare.

[@gameboyish]

You had me at jay serpa

[@DaboooogA]

These uber-modlists for Skyrim are so tempting but there are so many to choose from now!

[@mikevegas87]

Very well put together! Cheers!

[@PetiHuber]

This feels like a new game. I gotta try this. I need to return to Skyrim.

[@chrisanders713]

Wow! Now this is a great looking mod list. It put's most others I have seen to shame! I can't believe he got it to look this good with Community Shaders.

[@gavvy8434]

This modlist is so good but definitely pretty jarring in comparison to how I usually mod my game. A lock on and dodge system was something I thought might improve the combat. Which is very hard in this collection.

[@gis31noonan]

does the Dodge system have to be unlocked like the compass?

[@Bushman06]

With vannilla combat you dont need a dodge system you can side step or backpeddle attacks granted you have precision

[@Oliver-uh5ze]

The only thing keeping me from trying out this collection is Vortex. Never had a good experience with it. I hope installation through MO2 gets supported at some point.

[@kamixakadio2441]

What a great modlist, can't wait to try it (cries in 1050ti)

[@TheLilbigBlack]

This is perfect. Id just personally install ADXP and MCO to modernize the combat a bit.

[@samuraibebop6606]

thank you!

[@MegaArrasyid]

just question good sir, so you have any problem adding MCO to this modlist? I want to try this modlist with syn combat set up

[@bwloawesome]

Lots of folks making these modlist reviews but most of them are leaving out a key piece of information that would help users figure out how relevant these videos are: Post your build that you are playing this on and at what resolution.

[@jasonthacker2912]

Would love to see a showcase of 3rd person combat with the latest update

[@skittles.abuser]

Solid video :D

[@4Redwall]

I wish this modlist was on Wabbajack :(

[@anonymoususer8924]

Why not just use nexus as intended? It's literally a one click install.

[@Han-bw5zn]

@@anonymoususer8924 I dont exactly know how nexus collections work but I'd rather not use vortex,, if I can use mo2 with nexus collection I'd probably try. As an ex-vortex user, fuck vortex. I used it for years and I didnt know how bad it was until I tried mo2.

[@pierpaolobolognini]

​@@anonymoususer8924I have another wabbajack list installed and I fear that a nexus collection will alter the main game folder...

[@cassusgames]

@@anonymoususer8924Having access to multiple modlists is superior with Wabbajack due to how it handles the stock game.

[@joshua7426]

​@anonymoususer8924 it's def not a 1 click install. There's alot of tweaking you have to do before it works. Also if ur not paying nexus monthly be prepared to click several 1000 menu buttons when downloading through vortex

[@PapaTanduo]

Awesome I am installing.. been torn between this and Nolvus but Nolvus while more robust is huge I don’t have the space 😊

[@Iammrspickley]

Planning to try this out...I really like dense forest areas and overgrown roads...things not to new-ish and sometimes a bit ruïne like....I couldn't get a clear impression on that part....

[@TheBigO72285]

I did bleak falls at level two and it was a struggle. I was only able to attempt it because I chose to be a khajiit and invested my perk point in unarmed. Went through with a bow and claws and it took forever.

[@dominospizzaemployee2761]

What ENB are you using in this vid? It looks great with the collection

[@swiizzles]

I use Cabbage ENB :)

[@Lerbrandt]

Does this modlist include or is compatible with Imperator, the revised Perk list? I consider that mod essential for a much deeper RPG system for your character progression.

[@alballeda2919]

Great video! Do you know the name of the mod that requires you to ask for directions and read signs in order to know locations? Or do I just need to turn off the compass? :P

[@swiizzles]

@@alballeda2919 Appreciate it! The mod is called "Skills of the Wild" :)

[@luisandrade2120]

Hey man,thanks for the video.the modlist looks and feels like its amazing, do u know if the modlist adds new armor or changes then? Like sentinel and other stuffs?

[@caioborgesdesousa482]

my ony problem with this modlist is the compass being locked by a perk in a campfire skill tree, like, bro, c'mon

[@creamrunner]

I believe there is a console command on the collection page on Nexus that enables the compass without the perk, just FYI

[@R_ayse]

During the installation... DO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO ANY ERRORS. Go do something else, let Vortex do its thing. Ignore ALL errors. Do not even LOOK at the screen! GO AWAY until it's finished.

[@420CAK]

I put a 10 hour black screen ambient music video on, minimized Vortex and went to work 🤣

[@SaySwift]

Is this mod compatible with Legacy of the Dragon born? Or does it already contain this?

[@cearlach32]

Well i guess im making a second modlist hope my pc can handle it

[@tephra_]

I thought I was done with Skyrim but this might change my mind...

[@geo6406]

This collection uses azurite weathers right? So did you uninstall it to use cabbage enb? Cause i think cabbage enb requires another weather mod

[@charleslomboy4209]

Can i run this mod on my acer nitro 5, 8gb ram, RTX 3050 4gb?

[@Captain_Pepe]

can i use the mod collection with graphic mods and ray tracing? :)

[@deanalief3655]

how is this running on i5 6500 , 8 gb ram, gtx1060, or ryzen 5, 8 GB ram, RTX2050? really wanted to try this but my rigs is really old.

[@RussianKitty]

Are you using an enb or the built in Community Shaders?

[@BCY85]

I see some haters here....why? Great modlist!

[@smaller_cathedrals]

I assume because of the fact that it's a Nexus collection. Which is simply a pain in the ass to get running properly. Especially when you consider that such fantastic lists like Lorerim or Nolvus are so easy to install with no hassle at all.

[@ale.xej.official]

what mod is that cape from u used in the beginning ?

[@robertbartosik9412]

Can you tell me step by step how you add Cabbage ENB to this modlist ? I'm modding noob :(

[@vvillsonas]

Are you using enb for the video, or is this the community shaders?

[@Biddabiddoo]

dude can u do a benchmark with this mod? i wanna know if my pc can handle it before i download

[@unclegoose3864]

I just wish there was an MO2 version. Vortex is doo doo.

[@waveyzen]

how does this mod compare to constellations - whats the main differences

[@RaveMasterSRB]

not a fan of lighting feels a bit off on sunny midday especially. Some textures like road and paths look really bad.

[@dlaroc]

It has a lot of cool mods, but theres few too many i dont like. The game not pausing in inventory menus, needing to upgrade camp perks just to see compass and map marker, pretty much all the survivor features. i think i like Eldergleam better

[@benmo5947]

So the map doesn't work properly for a reason?

[@KiKisancz21]

I’m super new at modding. Is this easy to install or if not is there a comprehensive tutorial? Thanks

[@anonymoususer8924]

If you get a premium subscription for like a one time $3 or something it's a one click install. If you follow the 3 step install process (easy) you'll be playing in an hour easily.

[@vvillsonas]

Dude, please, what enb is this? Edit: Cabbage, got it!

[@vvillsonas]

@swizzles with all requirements and recomendations?

[@champagnepapi10]

is this a one click installation? Im always struggling with modlist if they require off-site installations and such

[@swiizzles]

@@champagnepapi10 It is if you have Nexus Premium, otherwise you'd need to download each mod individually which would take a LONG time :)

[@champagnepapi10]

oooff…guess ill have to consider going premium then. Thanks 🙏

[@IIHydraII]

Would have been nice to know total file size etc. not a fan of how plain the paths/roads look.

[@kcounalan]

Shame that it uses Vortex and is not on Wabbajack ,,, would get a lot more exposure

[@benjamink2398]

Lmao your talking sounds normal at about 1.5x speed

[@randomgmodshit]

Most things in this pack are really good, but if you're thinking about downloading it know that the combat is awful, You have very little control, there is no way to attack and also be able to avoid an attack since you get slowed down so much. All combat is essentially just trading hits back and forth, its even hard to hit because of the crosshair. The compass and sneak detection are locked behind perks you have to get, I got to lvl 30 and I didn't get close to unlocking them. However it is a really good hardcore modpack and after I uninstalled blade and blunt it was actually a really fun modpack. This pack is not for everyone.

[@robhaney8568]

Good to hear a first-hand evaluation. The last thing I'd want is to turn it into is Kingdom Come: Deliverance combat. I was convinced it was a "hard mode" collection and wasn't considering it. Now that I know what mod to turn-off/uninstall ... I'm pretty much onboard with everything else I'm seeing. Thanks for the info! (only other issue is Vortex ... what a convoluted/glitchy mess!)

[@HES1142]

Dont judge pls. But Is there a way to enable nudity?

[@edwinmartinez1973]

Its this mod-list tweak-able?

[@andrewstenseth9854]

I’ve found it is so long as the mods you use don’t interfere with any of the mods in this list

[@Crumpstmper]

How many crashes did you get? It’s always frustrating modding and constantly crashing.

[@dizzydjt7455]

Drink skooma, it's worth it.

[@randomthings1293]

Love Jayserpa, but the most immersive modlist would be Halls of Sovngarde.

[@wile123456]

The ERB is not to my liking, colours too saturated but with the flat contrast it looks weird. Similar to starfield, pure blacks dont exist. I hate how so many ENB's go for the old film photo look, when it's not suitable for LCD monitors and a videogame

[@lordedmundblackadder9321]

3:30 I don’t see how it’s immersive to know the exact health, magicka, and stamina of every enemy you come across.

[@cendolbang99]

it's an RPG game, if you want simple immersive game go play dark souls

If you don't have Premium, you better stop there, cause this mod in other words is but a headache to install.

[@B0RYTH]

Worth to buy a premium for one time

[@finix7419]

I prefer to finally see a combat oriented modpack and not just animation and equipment overhaul but a truly balanced enemy overhaul from level 1 to level 81 so that early game isn't too difficult and late game isn't too easy and also bringing variety to enemies without turning skyrim into a different game. I can see it's a difficult task and why we have not seen a great combat oriented modpack yet. I know there is requiem that delevel the world but that also bring a ton of other unncessary changes to the game that in my opinion is a huge downgrade to vanilla skyrim.

[@ruy123ofserenity]

[@rave1704]

I dont understarnd why you (usually young gamers) keep using these disgusting combat animations, with each slash causing blood to spray all of over asif an explosion just occured.. It just looks so unimmersive and unrealistic asif you are playing a hack and slash game from the 90's... Its just makes me sick to watch... Skyrim's original combat animations are so much better than this
