This is a small detail, but as a geologist, I really admire that volcanic rocks like basalt seem to dominate the terrain - perfectly suited to a mountainous island!
Strange how this one only seems to have appeared now. At any rate, it is always good to see more from Roscrea, especially since it seems like the ones amongst the "original" Beyond Skyrim projects that is closest to release.
People may have disliked the placeholder AI voices in the Argonia showcase, but I think this video proves that it's better than not having the lines voiced at all
@@CherryBotV2 Complaining about AI and trying to oppose it is like trying to stop the tide from rising. An absolute waste of energy. It's going to happen, regardless of what you or I or anyone else wants. Modders using it to get higher quality mods released is fine with me, especially when the alternative is often paying someone far more than they're worth to read a script.
This looks really good! Though imo dagnar should really not be protected/essential, there should be a failure state for the quest if he dies in the dungeon, would add some stakes to the quest
probably intended for final release, but I think they wanted the showcase to go a certain way to properly show it off I imagine some heavy balancing work is in order too
At the very least, I'm more forgiving that these are taking a while to make. Not only are they free mods being made by volunteers, it's been well-recorded that Bethesda didn't even start on TES 6 until 2018.
Yeah, presumably it was unlisted. When you make a video unlisted, it retains the date of when it was uploaded, but isn't visible until you make it public.
I think that there should be a race expansion pack as well.. because there are more than what were allowed to play as.. I wish you guys would take this into account as well. Or at least have them be random encounters...
I am hugely looking forward to this mod. I always felt that Skyrim was particularly less Nordic than I imagined it would be, and this area definitely doubles down on the viking era nordic vibes. Also, poor Dagnar. I get it, no one wants to kill the nice old man, but letting him rot away in sadness and disappointment is crueler. Especially for someone who believes that an eternity surrounded by the honored ancestors awaits them. Making you kill him is still sorta wrong, but taking away his axe in the end? That's just cruel. You don't have to kill him, but you shouldn't deny him his right to try again at an honorable end.
Pretty darn. One is team of professionals being paid to make a game. The other is a group of passionate fans with their own lives volunteering to make a mod. Not to mention these mods of this scope never see the light of day. The exception of course being Fallout London, Enderal, and hopefully soon, Skyblivion. Every time I see another project announced I hear Omni-Man say "What's 17 more years?"
@@alexshriner86 good points, but at least the volunteers have been updating us, as for the professionals, their project has so far been more of a prophecy to speculate than an actual game to look forward to. And even if the full project doesn't 100% finish, I'd still wager we'll at least get one or two expansions
Weird how we are now just seeing this video

„What would you do with a time machine?“
Travel forward in time to when all the beyond Skyrim projects are finished.
Roscrea might just be my favourite of the bunch. Similar to Skyrim, but still enough difference to feel unique.
Why am I just seeing this video now?
Exactly
It was probably only just unlisted, but uploaded 3 days ago
@@stointhedwarf9838 I think you're right. I was catching up with what I missed yesterday and only now saw this video public.
I asked myself the same question lol
You tell me...
I think Im most excited for Roscrea and Morrowind
I am most excited for Argonia and Morrowind, although I am excited to play any Beyond Skyrim part of course!
I really want cryodil because i feel like once one big project is done, it will allow more time for the rest of them.

It's crazy that people are complaining about placeholder voices in unfinished projects
It’s crazy people are complaining at all about a free high quality product
@@Balloon-t5x people have a right to criticize, especially considering the whole, you know, actors strike due to AI threatening their jobs?
@@CherryBotV2 its placeholder ai the actors still get their jobs

I love the Roscrean ruin tile set! And the new bronze armor for some of the draugr.
4 days ago??? how did i not see this?
i feel bad for the wife just being left out of the loop 😭good luck on the project guys

100%

Maybe not failure, just add a note to his body informing you that he's okay dying honourably in battle.
Wow the music is beautiful, peaceful
I don't know about you guys but I'm more interested in these expansions than TES 6
I honestly dread TES 6 more than being excited for it. I’m far more excited for Beyond Skyrim (Argonia and Atmora in particular)
At the very least, I'm more forgiving that these are taking a while to make. Not only are they free mods being made by volunteers, it's been well-recorded that Bethesda didn't even start on TES 6 until 2018.
hmmm maybe yes
just seeing this video wierdly. cant wait for 2025 release
Believe in your work guys👍
0:49 is an ancestor glade, which is very interesting
Nice work GJ!
it looks awesome
I looked on their channel everyday since the first 2024 mod con vid
THIS WAS NOT HERE YEStERDAY

Very Nice!

will all the projects be on steam like endereal??
How am I seeing this video only now? Lol
I waiting for the nord that will say nords of Skyrim are no true nords and only milkdrinkers😂😂😂

Sounds like the reporter in family guy
Hobobob
No 60 fps?
I don't know about you guys but I'm more interested in these expansions than TES 6
If I think about the latest releases of bethesda, I am more interested in Beyond Skyrim too
At least TES 6 is guaranteed to come out in the near(ish) future.
@alexshriner86 , you may be right, but is it, though?
