The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR

I recommend Skyrim VR if you are willing to spend time modding it. My video used Mad God's Overhaul: the visuals, lighting and physical interactions looked excellent. Getting that setup working took me roughly two days and many crashes, though, and Space Warp artifacts bothered me. On my 4070 Ti, towns could bring performance dips and higher latency. For an easier, less demanding setup, I preferred FUS. This recommendation comes from my modded experience; the stock game alone wasn't what impressed me.

Feels weird to write a review for a game that's been out for 15 years. Back then, I never really got into Skyrim because it had many of the same spoon-feeding qualities that plague modern open-world games. I'm looking at you, damned quest compass, constantly showing me everything there is to discover and completely killing that feeling of exploration, discovery, and finding your own way. Recently, though, I gave Skyrim another shot in VR with the FUS RO DAH modlist, and somehow, it fixes almost all of the issues I had with the game. Instead of staring at a UI telling me where to go, I'm actually holding a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ map and compass in my hands and have to find my way around. The immersion is absolutely top-notch, and the visuals are surprisingly great. The VR integration in general is fantastic. You can grab and physically interact with things in ways that actually make the world feel tangible: shove levers with your hands, knock objects off tables with your sword, pick up potions and physically bring them to your mouth to drink them, or grab an enemy while attacking them. These little interactions add up to a much more immersive experience than simply playing the game thr…

Honestly the best game i've ever played period. Convinced me to learn game dev. Recommend Mad God Overhaul pack. Could get lost in skyrim forever

Its a Modding Nightmare, but if you slog your way through that and get it working right? Oh boy, You're in for a fun time. Ive only recently played Skyrim for the first time, and im happy im doing it in VR

The game is so wonky most of the time. I play on PSVR2 (with the official adapter) and I don't know what I did, but the bow bugged so bad, I had to do random movements to make the bow work. 10/10 feels like Skyrim, but now I can just immerse myself more.

Good Game
