Skyrim, But I'm Stranded on a Desert Island

I used Skyrim mods to create a permadeath wilderness survival challenge where I'm stranded on a desert island. Now I face the challenges of basic survival, including gathering my own food and facing predators, and somehow finding a way off the island, back to Skyrim. If I die, I have to start over again from the shipwreck. Can I survive and complete this challenge run?
We're starting at level 1, developing both combat and survival skills, and exploring the wilderness of this desert island in search of a way to escape. With survival mode on, we need to eat, sleep, and stay warm similar to an indie survival game. We need to find food and shelter on this island, or our stats will suffer and we'll die way more easily to enemies.
The core mod used is The Island, which can be found on Nexus mods at the link below. I encountered some visual and AI bugs when playing this mod, but it was still a very cool survival experience overall and I'm glad I played it. Hope you enjoy!

This looks absolutely AWESOME. I couldn't watch super far because I don't want to spoil too much for myself. I have to give this modlist a try - By far my favorite channel rn
Yo thanks Joov, that's super kind of you! It's a really cool mod, and I think there's another one called Chanterelle that's similar. I'm partway through your lootbox video btw, that's a fantastic playthrough concept lol.
MAH BOI JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOV
@@FormerlyBlue Chanterelle is very fun, I started my "wild elf" character there and haven't left yet. Almost level 20 now.
Jooooovvv
When will you be releasing it sir?
Depending on at which point in the Formerly Blue Cinematic Universe this takes place, Gjeoffriehy's reign of terror has probably spread to the other holds. Staying on the island was the right choice.
lol I love that.
I’d bet gjeoffriehy is not just spending his time as a landlord anymore. he might trying to buy or rule over all of Skyrim one day, then the whole world next.
Gjeoffriehy actually caused the apocalypse.
You should make another video like this it's pretty good 👍
I love how your character takes the time to light a fire using tinder and striking sparks off of a rock when you have a spell that lets you shoot flames out of your hand
Lmao
I love The Island. I've started some of my favorite play throughs here.
Fun fact, both the cabin you stayed at and the cabin with the sawmill also has an entire farming plot that used shovels to activate so you can make your own farm than just using the planting plots. There is also a few hidden quests you can find here, not just finding the crew. I see you had the option to make Amakai's Amulet, so I imagine you found some of them.
Can't wait to see what those two plots are about, and you dying to falmer again.
Spoilers!!
@@jamelecracka9524who reads the comments before watching the video. That's your own fault lol
As a veteran Skyrim player, your videos are the exact mods and challenges I'd play if I still could. Unfortunately, I had to make some changes and playing Skyrim no longer fits in my life. I miss it sometimes, but your videos are a healthy way for me to feel like I can still play. I appreciate it 💜
That's great, I'm glad I can help you out!
i feel you
i was introduced to skyrim by my cousin when it first came out and i was like 4 yet now i can’t play because im too busy working 😞
hey im sure you could figure it out somehow if you really wanted to. even an hour or two a week is enough if you really care for it…
@@Boreragnorak185it's not that simple... Really, it's not.
Between Dad life and work there really aren't enough hours in the day...
The quality of these videos are super top notch! Loving every single bit of them!
Happy to hear it!
As someone currently stranded on an island, this was very helpful, thank you.
fighting the urge to play modded skyrim after so many years its getting harder and harder
Go from The Island to Chanterelle to Shattered Skyrim for the ultimate long-term survival experience.
I never knew there's mod like this, it's so amazingly immersive
The way you can craft simple axe with branch? Man that looks so fun to play
Also the video itself, the way you narrating really sound like you were actually there, experiencing all of it by yourself
Really love this episode, please keep it up!
He really was there experiencing all of it wtf
Maybe not actually there but gaming is as close as it gets
Literally just finished your apocalyptic series and refreshed to find this, I can tell this will be a good watch, keep up the amazing content!!
Thanks so much!
I would definitely play this on an Argonian character. - Not just for water breathing but also resistances that are useful in Survival with Realistic Needs.
Also, having three planters there for 10 potatoes was nicely calculated.
First you plant one, and harvest it.
Then you plant that one, and harvest two
Then you plant a third and keep one.
Then you just harvest three potatoes three growth cycles and have exactly 10.
The Dwemers must have had amazing woodworker's for the wooden dock to be still standing and not be a pile of rotten planks...
omg i'm about to watch someone showcasing the mod THE ISLAND ??? it's one of my favourite mod, combined with Heartcraft, you can litteraly colonize the island.
Hearth Craft, or a different mod?
I haven't played Skyrim in forever. Was testing some mods out with Live Another Life and seems good for a real playthrough. I was thinking of starting on the Island but I also saw Chantrelle has somewhat of a similar theme. Not sure which one to try
Amazing content man, keep it up! Excited to see more of this series and anything else you come up with as well!
Stay on the island. There's ALOT more to this place. Chanterelle is also wonderful as well.
These videos make me want to play Skyrim again. Good job with the great content mate.
I love the concept of this video, it was so well done too! Can't wait to try this mod out for myself and just live as a peaceful island mage.
I absolutely love these videos, the narrating and editing are so much fun. Please continue! ❤🎉
Will do!
Loved this video and the voice over was amazing you kept the interest up and made it exiting to watch
keep up the good work
Thanks a bunch!
This vid, and your Shattered Skyrim vids, have earned my Sub. I'd like to see a melee run in Shattered, though its obviously a great undertaking!
Interesting mod combination you found! I'll have to try it out sometime.
This was such a great video! I love hard-core ironman style challenges, especially in Skyrim. 12/10.
Loved the video, Maybe next one can be life as a whiterun guard?
lol magic user casually blasts sleeved to death, an hour later “man… how will I ever light this fire! I’ll be here all night!” Hahaha
I love your narration and editing. What a cool and beautiful mod set!
Subbed! You deserved way more than 25k subs!
Thanks! Glad you're here!
Loving your videos! Always eager for the next upload
I want more of this island survival and I am certain you can make some really cool things on this island
I played through the Island on a character several times over thanks to tinkering with my load order and I explored it pretty thoroughly, honestly the place is perfect for a survival/camping game setup since it's a perfect place to practice. Add in the 'Dynamic Magicka and Stamina' mod and the custom perks for camping and Frostfall and you can get a decent amount of headway on your survival skills before getting to Skyrim.
On a side note, there's a few things I could mention for future reference:
There's a woodcutters axe next to the Ruined house up the hill from the docks as well as some stumps you can interact with that can then be used to make chopping blocks by the hunters cabins.
If you take too long to explore the island the explorers bodies will despawn, found that one out the hard way.
Find a shovel and you can set up farmland by certain hunters cabins and if you get firewood and pots you can light the fireplaces for cooking and warmth.
Just my pointers that I didn't see covered in this video, I hope you continue this as there's more to uncover on the Island.
Damn, this actually looks pretty fun. I love me a good survival game. I might do this for my yearly playthrough around winter
Yo dude I love your channel. Please make more videos like this, they really entertain me!
i hope you do a part 2, because there are a few quests left that are very interesting, and i found a single jarrin root for some reason, so that could help for something.
Brilliant video - as always!
Another incredible video, these only keep on getting better and better lol. The ideas are so abstract and unique that for me atleast it helps seperate you from the other Skyrim TH-camrs.
also, officially a patreon member now. It feels good.
Ayy thanks so much! Welcome to the crew!
@@FormerlyBlue Least I can do to support the channel.
I always look forward to your uploads. :) I just passed a really hard test I’ve been studying months for and already feeling great and then I see this video and I thought the day couldn’t get any better but it did. :) 🎉🎉🎉
That's awesome, congrats!
To summarize,.the island is an older mod ment to be played with alt life. campfire, frostfall, hunter born, and exsmithing are all recommend for full enjoyment of this one.
I've played through this mod. It's a nice change of pace from your garden variety Skyrim.
This was fun to watch! And the Stardew Valley music at the end was a nice touch.
These scenarios are always so cool
I found this dude on accident at like 5k or maybe a little less subs and just WOW the amount he's grown is amazing and truly deserved! Keep it up dude loving the content a lot!!!
Thanks, glad you're enjoying :)
This is really interesting and unique take on the usual bethesda challenge videos. A bunch of cool mods I wouldn't have the patience to play but I love to see showcased in this format.
Glad you enjoyed! I'll be doing more like it in the future!
Love your content, please keep it up !
This model of video is really working, God bless you man, I hope you can make good money out of it and live like a true gamer
I seriously love the twist of just deciding to stay on the island at the end.
This is great stuff. Thnx man :)
You know I had to tune in for the up and coming king of Skyrim content. ( Love the vids man) commented on the last vid too.
Thanks so much, idk about king of Skyrim content but thanks for the support!
I really really enjoy your videos. Thank you and keep up❤
Will do; thanks!
This is a very cool concept! Never heard of The Island mod before, will for sure be checking it out
Hey Jacoby, fan of your content! It's a pretty neat mod!
Thanks brother! Keep up the good work!
Oh im doing this tomorrow! Just what I have been looking for. Thank you!
Enjoy!
@@FormerlyBlue thanks! I use Skyrim Unbound Reborn, should I disable that to run The Island?
Love the ending!!!
Now this is a very very interesting video this seems like a fun challenge
Now we need to see you clear out the falmer and turn this island into your own and finish those quests
Definitely gonna try this mod after I watch!
Would love to see you take on the life of either a fisherman or miner!
That was cool, sir. Thank you.✌🏼
I love this alternate start mod, especially when you have things like Campfire and can make your own equipment, given enough time and hunting some resources.
Oh no, I’m torn… I want to keep watching but the more I watch the more I want to play this for myself and don’t want to spoil it!
Nice, I might play this when I get my new VR headset for the ultimate experience
I would definitely choose to stay on the island…😄
I’ll be looking for this mod. Thanks for the vid!
Never been a big fan of permadeath, but seriously love the idea of this one.
I discovered your channel through your videos "Skyrim - but badly translated" which I found so entertaining and funny. Especially because of you and the way you're playing. You took the game and the NPCs serious no matter what nonsense they talked which made it even funnier.
And here I see that this is the way you are and it is a pleasure to watch your videos because the viewers can see that you are having fun as well.
Stay as you are and good luck for the future and your channel - may it "live long and prosper".
PS: This mod is fantastic and I will definitely play it in the near future (the same as your "Skyrim Farm Simulator which you filled with life too).
Thanks for the kind words! Glad you're enjoying :)
i love this random floating tree at 5:31 , it reminds me of my own save...
Lol yeah, the island is a weird place!
* blasts skeever with fire magic *
" I bAreLy kNow HoW tO mAkE a CaMpFiRe "
lol you really can't use fire magic to start a campfire until you have higher Destruction skill tho!
“Can’t make fire” next frame left hand toasting animals with magic lol
this premise is neat! i kinda want to try it for myself, but i know i'd be awful at it 😅
This literally the plot of Castaway....
..... in Skyrim.
I like it!
I feel like using magic which is basically unlimited ruins the spirit of a survival challenge, just using scrolls is much more acceptable because they're limited and you have to work to get them
Even so this was a cool video and seems like a fun set of mods
I love your videos! 💖
Glad you like them!
I love that you said pestle right the first time and then wrong the second time.
If I have just one complain about this video is the lack of numbers to represent the days. It was great that you included them in your farmer one.
Fair, that would've been a nice inclusion. It's hard to find a good place on the screen to put labels like that though without them overlapping with other stuff too much.
There's an addon for the Island that takes you to Chanterelle afterward, another HUGE survival map. Two worldspaces the size of Skyrim.
Suggestion: Maybe find a way to make it in one run, i do think that having different timelines makes the video kind of confusing to watch. And also you are going to be discovering things as you progress, so always is a new experience for you and the audience. Keep the good job! Loving the vids!❤
Just Finished Watching All Your Videos, They Are Awesome!
Also, can you do more of the Geoffrey series?
Glad you're enjoying the videos :) I wouldn't dare to speak for the wild card that is Gjeoffriehy...
A wonderful little Story! Thanks for the Entertainment!
My new favorite skyrimtuber
That means a lot!
I loved the video! amazing work :D but in 4:29, why he didnt light up the campfire with his fire spell? :D
would love to see more exploration of the island!! also, moving to skyrim would probably be a bad plan given the high rents and constant apocalypses
LOL I love it! Yeah Skyrim's a pretty rough place just judging by my channel...
Wake up honey Formerly Blue just posted a new video
This is so cool!
Great Video !
Love the video and the mod! However, I find it a bit weird that you have to light the fire "by striking a stone" while you are literally a walking flamethrower.
Great video!
Thanks!
I love it!! Part 2??
love your content!
Glad to hear it!
Would love a 100 day survival challenge with some more survival mods in some longer form content
I'd like to think that in the end. He maybe travels to skyrim, does some treade with spare hides and stuff, buying better equipment and stuff he can't get on the island, but otherwise makes a life for himself there. Would like to see him explore the underground area more though.
Wohoo! new wasblue vid!
If there is one challenge I think would be the hardest skyrim challenge yet, is the Hall of the Dragonborn mod, a massive quest where you gotta fill a entire museum with skyrims many quests and items.
YEAAAHHH.... Can you say Mark and Recall. XD I would add a mark location on that island so I could go back any time I wanted.
Im not sure about Skyrim trolls specifically but in the mythology of others trolls usually cant be hot by sunlight so maybe thats why it froze up by cave entrance
I've just recently discovered your channel and my god you're entertaining! Keep it up! Btw would you be interested in making a video covering all the graphic mods you use? You're game looks amazing!
Thanks! Probably not, as that's not my niche and there are a bunch of other youtubers who do a better job showcasing graphics. Also I'm probably going to get a new computer in the near future and overhaul my graphics setup anyway.
They've taken an almost Metroidvania approach with the design of this mod, I like it
LONGER VIDS I LOVE EM
nice stuff, but i would definitly opted to play an argonian here
disease resistance plus waterbreathing sound slike just what you would want for a survival play
i personally think the mod Chanterelle would have made for a more quality mod. This was a great video!
Dwemer are dwarves. Mays cap are from way south of skyrim.. Tamriel.
Man its been a long time since i played. Is Skyrim still sold? I never did play it, but with mods like this, looks like a lot of fun!
stay the hell away from spriggans! They are a real danger unless you are well equipped and a fair level
Another Chill Video we watch to escape the real World
Hi Blue! Love the videos, they really entertain my dumb bethesda lovin a$$!
Yay new sub 🎉
Awesome, welcome aboard!
