We're crafting spells now? | Skyrim Creations

[@mmoogl3547]

I thought it'd be something like the spellcrafting in Oblivion, where you actually get to create your own spells by combining different effects and changing how they appear. This is just a different way of obtaining mod spells.

[@Nephilim27]

There’s a mod for that actually. I use it and it’s actually pretty good and you merge spells to create new, more dangerous spells. It’s pretty good. Lmk I’ll add the link, YT likes to delete linked comments quick, for some reason.

[@sasspiria1872]

There's already great mods for free that do this too.

[@tjhedgescout3052]

@@Nephilim27 what is the mod?

[@pjoterem141]

for the spells missing from previous games, try Mysticism by SimonMagus

[@enragedbard]

Eh.... after playing Daggerfall I feel like they were justified in rolling Thaumaturgy and Mysticism into Alteration. What I didn't like was that they got rid of spell effects 😢 I do like the crafting aspect of this!

[@teresauplinger1601]

Absolutely love this...I missed doing this since Oblivion! Thanks for sharing this😉☺️👍❣️

[@sasspiria1872]

Dino's Spell Discovery or Spell Research or Spell forge do this much better with mod support and other systems that make it better. And for the new spells there's mysticism.

[@NoNo-s9h]

True and have they have so many patches

[@lastexile6924]

Im blessed to be on PC since there is far better spell crafting mods for free. Still its good that you covering this "creations" tho.

[@urbanexotic]

Really doesn't offer anything that free mods can't provide. There were already multiple spellcrafting mods and mods that restore old spells from Morrowind and Oblivion to the spell lists. As you pointed out, this adding 5 different altars to the CoW and requiring different blank tomes for the schools of spells doesn't make a lot of sense. Overaly, I've gotta disagree that this would be worth $5. It brings absolutely nothing new to the table.

[@dkirby9052]

Right away the thing I noticed about this creation are the ingredients necessary for these things. Some of them are just random, like torches? Why torches? Because you can light them? How does that work when crafting spells? And then there are ingredients that are just rare, like Flawless Diamonds I believe was one of them. As if something like that is just easy to find. Okay why bread? What in the actual hell does bread have to do with making spells? Please tell me how I am supposed to find some of these things. I would have to wait a long time just to craft a spell I really want because the ingredients are not easy to come by. Wait a minute, are you telling me that I can craft spells that are already in the vanilla game? Why wouldn't I just buy them? Why go through the all that trouble of finding ingredients when I could just buy the spell. Why is a creation about crafting spells offering you spells that already exist in the vanilla game? The appeal of spell crafting in the previous games was that you could combine spells you already knew to create new spells or more powerful versions of what you already have. I can appreciate adding in much needed spells like cure disease or water walking. Adding spell crafting back into the game is nice and I can see that you get some more powerful versions of spells you already know. Having 8 versions of a spell in your menu could be solved by just adding an option to delete spells you already know. Cure disease costs 225? WTF? Mod author, what are you doing? Why is that a master level spell? Yeah, this creations definitely needs some updates.

[@secretdoorgaming2024]

Oh that's so amazing to see these mod authors are absolutely brilliant I just wish my watermelon of a computer could run all these mods. I have 400 mods going and it's kind of rough a lot of stuttering and some flying people and animals. lol

[@kylewist7745]

Anything that brings additional "fortify health" and/or "fortify speed" buffs is a godsend for hardcore Legendary runs.

[@FranklinLongallnitelong22]

Interesting even for me who don't normally build straight up mages.

[@MorganRhysGibbons]

A bit tough to justify this when using Mysticism/Odin/etc. I guess it's cool that it's available? I'm not against the Bethesda team getting some money for their platform.

[@Leto85]

I love it that there now is an Illusion pacify spell so powerful that you can onehand cast that spell on a Guard of all things to calm him down. Normally that would required dual-casting Pacify. It does however still require a nearly fully perked Illusion tree though.

[@OrtaLupus]

It doesn't seem that interesting, it just adds higher lvl versions of spells we already have or increase this skill by X amount...

[@MLPDethDealr32]

More reasons i use a mod called Spell Research. it adds the ability to craft scrolls and thesis' from rolls for paper and studying effects from enchanted weapons and soul gem fragments.

[@J_Rossi]

This would almost be worth it to me for the Cure Disease and Cure Poison spells alone.

[@ironysteeth]

Uh, those are master spells, I don't think they're worth it at all

[@retroambassador2945]

There are several free mods that add those

[@Cuicas007]

[@stonedasfudge5947]

Bs aside, Restoration is EXTREMELY valid.

[@EcardEcardian]

I remeber making spells was a thing in Morrowind, Also enchantments. That it was lacking in the base games afterwards was odd to me.

[@Leto85]

07:35 A lockpicking spell sounds great, but there is already one available in another paid mod. Maybe that's why it hasn't been added to this mod as well.

[@NeonBlacklightTH]

If you're referring to Arcane Accessories then yeah I can get behind that, though only issue with that is that this paid mod has a summon bear spell of which Arcane Accessories has one itself already so that might not be the case? Maybe it's an issue of the mod dev not knowing how exactly to make the scripts and effects needed to work?

[@Leto85]

@@NeonBlacklightTH Thank you. That was indeed the paid mod I meant.

Me: another paid mod that creates spell tomes? Yes please!! Also me: Spellforge mod... got it. Thanks bud! Overall, this is a great showcase. Shame that this has a price tag.

[@ironysteeth]

Interesting you can get spells above current rank in school. Where before you needed to be same rank as spell for ot to start being in chests and merchant inventorys. I don't know if this makes it worth the mod slot if another magic type mod is already in the cue (apocalypse for example). Plus I love Winter hold mod so I don't know of this is worth the swap.

[@Leto85]

Yes! I was hoping you and The Gaming Dad would address this new paid mod. I was very thrilled when I saw what the store had in store for us.

[@NoNo-s9h]

[@anemone9895]

Dammit I need to play Skyrim again

[@chaserseven2886]

I wonder if we’ll see something like this in tes6

[@Leto85]

The spell that increases carry-weight can be 'improved' by perks and dual-casting. It will require a TON of magicka though: I've maxed out the related tree and still needed 700 magicka. I find that fair, since carry-weight is so very much sought after.

[@ronnygru2850]

[@JesseJamison-f6i]

I keep looking down at my watch looking at the date pacing around wondering when are you going to be able to do another fantastic quest mod. Have we reached the end of all of the quests?

[@JesseJamison-f6i]

At first this piqued my interest, but then again now that I think about it.. I tried one of the paid mods and it turned out to be a cave with really nothing there. So what makes us any different, this is just a new unique lore friendly way to collect spells, plain and simple. I mean yeah that's kind of cool that there's spells that you can't normally get that come with the mod.. but this isn't like a unique customization spell craft addition. So it's basically pointless. But thanks for covering it anyways.

[@jubimagi]

The start of the video seems to be cut off

[@chaserseven2886]

🤔hmmm tempting

[@smartfiredragon]

i see no point paying money for this when theres things like mysticism and apocalypse and the like out there for free giving new spells that change how the schools work

[@drshemp45]

They could've used the opportunity to add so many things missing from the previous games, and in some respect they did... fortify speed (athletics in older titles), cure disease (very useful so you don't need to visit altars or stock up on disease cure potions), feather (great for emergency fast travel), etc... but the fact that water walking is missing from alteration, and night eye from illusion, it just feels like an absolutely wasted opportunity... ugh... meanwhile memey spells like mudcrab conjuration are in there... and i'm rather blegh in feel about the low-tier cloak spells that also wound the caster.

[@drshemp45]

Addendum, video skipped skipped for some reason, and on a re-watch, i saw water-walking... good........ good for modder. They have redeemed themselves.

[@smillernexus]

Not worth it just to scribe the books yourself. Plenty of free mods out there that add new spells and there is even scroll crafting built into other mods. Something that costs real money needs to truly add something to the game, like customization. It might work out for playstation, though. Anyone stuck playing skyrim on that platform will take what they can get, lol.

[@_kmatt_]

I feel like calling this spell crafting is a bit disingenuous. You're just crafting the tome, not actually creating novel spells.

[@terryechoes3192]

Why would Skyblivion need to make a new lockpicking minigame? The Skyrim engine already has a lockpicking game. Isn't that the point of remaking Oblivion in Skyrim's engine?

[@Fishfiend2820]

Oblivion had a different lockpicking mini game, A developer for Skyblivion wanted to make it so they did its really that simple

[@Anchor-Supreme]

Extremely disappointed that pretty much all these spells are just upgrades to other spells or just feature effects only present in potions. Was hoping for some cool unique spells or better options for weaker schools like Illusion and Restoration.
