It should be said that skyrim isn't based entirely on "vikings" The Eastern side is Norway and Denmark. The west is England and Scotland. With solitude being England and the reach Scotland. Elder scrolls nords are anglo saxon and norse and highlander and dane all at once. Either way it's a really cool mod list. But I'd love the variety added by the other cultural elements nords have in the elder scrolls lore!
I just want to note the Battleaxe, Greatsword and Sword moveset you showcased is actually the Elder Souls Moveset not the Nordic Moveset. If you don't delete the Elder Souls movesets in the MCO mod they tend to overwrite the mco animations you try to install.
I don't think people understand how difficult and impressive it is to capture the images and shots you do in these videos. Breathtaking stuff really. The absolute BEST!
To vary the Farmhouses more, I suggest using "Unigue Towns - Base Object Swapper" and choosing the Northern Farmhouse options for Winterhold, Dawnstar and Morthal, skipping Falkreath. Then installing "Northern Vanilla Farmhouses", and adding "Unique Northern Vanilla Farmhouses". This will give you similar looks as COTN Dawnstar/Morthal without all of the patches, and make the other villages and Inns unique to their region.
I like this method too, because although the interiors are good, I really like COTN for the exteriors. So getting just the exteriors with basically zero patching is gold
A tip for both realism and immersion in your weapon descriptions You do not want a sword to be hard all the way through the harder metal is the edge which is needed to retain it's sharpness, however the steel used on the spine or center of the blade traditionally is usually a softer steel so that it can flex when it makes contact with a hard object like armor or a shield.
@@mordvargr1523 its part of the NordwatUA armor overhaul it's called Berserkir and can be bought from Stormcloak smiths or looted off random Stormcloak bodies
Adding the "Fat Thor Films Production" at the start of your videos really is completely appropriate. These are more like mini-movies than mere mod videos. My brain hurts thinking about the level of effort that goes into each one.
Wow, thank you HeavyBurns .The armour, the buildings, and the landscapes were all stunning but the crowning glory was the ENB, as beautiful a cold bright day in Norway. Good lighting makes such an underrated contribution to immersion as it lifts textures to new heights and shadows make intriguing architecture even more dramatic.
10:09 Another unique Norse weapon you could have included here before pressing on is “The Undead” sword mod, which adds the unique sword “The Undead”; inspired by the sword “Draugr” from “The Northman” you can find it at the bottom of a well that leads to a mini-cairn/barrow, to the north of Windhelm near the coastline. You’ll know you’re close when you find a cave nearby. I think it’s “The Chill” but I could be mistaken.
Nooooo not the horned ''viking'' helms !!!! They did not have damn horns !! (joking though its a fantasy setting it has been forgiven) Love the absolutely fantastic editing as usual ,you my dude make mod showcasing so beautiful and cinematic every time i loovee it !!!!!
i mean historically they didn't have horns on their helmets but it would have been pretty sick and that why it is always welcomed by me unless its specifically a historically accurate thing then yes keep it accurate but fantasy why not.
This video was less about making Skyrim "viking-themed" and more about making it what people think a "viking-fantasy" looks like. Especially if the "Vikings" tv show is your main frame of reference. The armour sets especially were just pure power fantasy and nothing like stuff that would have actually been worn. At least the revised town-guard sets had some tonal consistency. I just don't understand how a fantasy-Roman gladiator, or armour sets that remind you of other games, makes it feel like a "viking experience."
Another mod I love for this aesthetic is called "Away, come away". It has a short quest that gets you an armor set and a 2h sword, and I believe it adds a nordic body / face paint. I'm surprised it still seems to be somewhat of a hidden gem (At least, noone i know knew it, and the numbers on its page are modest).
JP makes some of the best Viking styled mods from all the northern cities and roads along with the enbs. Even his bear mod is pretty crazy I love the northern bears so much larger and bear sounding. Plus the northern farm houses mod really makes Skyrim feel more cohesive absolutely 100% one of the best mods this year.
After seeing this video I spent about 4 hours re building my LO to fit this as close as possible on Xbox. 150 mods, as many northern roads patches as I could get. Here’s hoping it’s as epic as this video appears 🤘 Amazing job on this. Appreciate it!
Yo, amazing video HeavyBurns. I also love the nordic theme in my load order. For Whiterun, I'd like to toss in my own viking themed recommendation. Try using Spaghetti's Whiterun + GG's Impoverished Whiterun + Whiterun Defensive Stockade Walls. Can also work with Capital Whiterun, but the defensive stockades and mud streets really sell the look imo (without having to deal with Fortified Whiterun or any of the other big overhauls). JK's Redbag's Dragonsreach is my personal favorite, and then of course Glorious Doors of Skyrim. With Skyland Whiterun and Designs of the Nords for textures (mostly for the banners).
To be honest, if you want your Skyrim world to look more like Scandinavia, I recommend the Folkvangr grass overhaul or the Verdant grass overhaul instead of the one in this video. This grass is too lush, uniform and green, making the environment look more like some milder climate further south in Europe. Most grass here in Scandinavia is much less uniform, and tends to be dotted more with random bushes and wildflowers, and often the grass is patchy due to parts of it being destroyed by groundfrost in the winter. The grass we have here isn't very pretty to look at.
i was going to say something about that! seeing the autumn-colored patchy scrub disappear to make room for a random green grassy field made my heart hurt a little; i live in the Arctic and the vanilla Skyrim tundras are incredibly accurate to how the biome looks in real life (and they make me miss summer..). i have seen pictures of Scandinavian tundra and they look very similar to where i am, as well! just a hint more green there in places (from the colors of moss, lichen, and very short green plants), and i think that's beautiful too. 😊 ((also.. i wish there was a mod that added ravens and all the funny noises they make, rather than crows.. here at least, we're too north for crows. have to go 7 hours south to start seeing any!))
@@matts9871 Very late reply, but I recommend Mihail's Crows & Ravens mod, which adds both. We have both crows and ravens in Scandinavia in the real world, though sadly only crows in the part of Norway I live in.
For armours I would suggest you look into all of the armour replacers by NordWarUA, the guy behind Sons of Skyrim. Many are there as standalones on his own Nexus page (most are on another site) so for replacesr you will have to rely on mods by the list of people he has given permission to for uploads.
You can edit northern road metadata in loot from default to worldspace edit, so the northern road will placed at the bottom of load order to became actually work, i get this trick from syn gaming skyrim
@@junijuan8179 I bet u won't tell me anything that I did not try, solution above did nothing for me and many people, I tried sooo many things but I just gave up on this mod, maybe in the future someone will provide like a tutorial or something
@@kananana9903 well, i'm just try to help, so far it works for me, but yeah sometime to many patch is troublesome luckily they already have northern road patch huh in nexus
Love this video man. For the longest of time I was trying to find a proper modlist such as this and it really helps out. Hope you would another video akin to this but for a full fantasy/Dark fantasy overhaul.
@HeavyBurns I really enjoy Redbag's collection of mods for a "norse feel". Redbag's Falkreath and Rorikstead really add that viking feel. There are also other mod authors who have used Redbags assets to make their own versions of Pinewatch, and Half-Moon Mill to have a 900sAD feeling to Skyrim.
@@RedBagMods Any plans for other areas in the future? I think a Dawnstar could use your designs. I think a whaling town and ship building town. With drydocks and fish processing area. It would give them the economy that bethesda forgot.
@@RedBagMods They could also have a raiding based economy based of of the worship of Stuhn, depicted as the whale in the old nord ruins,and the god who taught the nords the benifit of taking war prisoners. He was later watered down by Alessia when she combined the nordic and altmeri pantheons into the nine devines. The idea of a Stormcloak aligned port, worshiping the old god of ransom, raiding the imperial supply chain on the sea of ghosts bound for solitude just sounds so epic. It'd be less of a redesign and more like a complete injection of true nordic lore that Skyrim needs.
Skyrim 2023, who would have thought 12 yrs on there are probably more people playing Skyrim than ever before. Skyrim is the poster boy for modding, the game would otherwise just be a nostalgic booty call without modding. Skyrim has an ingredient that invokes excitement every time a player feels the urge for a playthrough. Me, ive never played the story, but have played other overhauls, also as a hunter, assassin and more. I'm getting that itch after seeing this vid...damm you.
10:10 *Skyrim Belongs to the Nords* may also be a good choice but I'm not sure how compatible it would be, it just ADDS more Nords, existing npcs are untouched.
Slow the fuck down. You had me at embrace its Scandinavian roots. Then you began showing visual after visual. Meanwhile Im over here breathing heavy, hands shaking, trying to calm myself down so I dont smash my left mouse button. Holy hell this is beautiful. I will not see the light of day for the next 3 years because of this masterpiece. Salivating... damn
Absolutely impressive overhaul transformation into a gorgeous looking Viking game... but... wait... what about the characters, the dialogues, the story, the quests, the lore? I really wish there was a list of mods changing all that as well. Anyway... what to say... Skyrim will never die!!!
PLEASE do a video on your favorite hud mod combinations, I’m a huge fan of your content and my hud is a piece of crap in a visual and functional aspect. I really like your hud and ui in this video and would love to use it my self.
I love these types of game changes! The realistic medieval game change was one of my favorites and this one is just as good. I would love a Samurai inspired game change, been wanting to make a Samurai character for awhile but couldn't find enough mods to make it work. Especially for the World.
I heartily thank you for this great video. As compensation for creating such a fantastic list of mods to make Skyrim feel truly nordic I would be glad to grant you the title of honorary nord
Wind ruler armor can be patched with HDT-SMP as to add physics to hair and armor. This is already done for Skyrim special edition but does anyone know of any Legendary edition patch?
These mods are so cool! Thank you for showing them off! I am curious if you’ll do a modding video on Whiterun? It’s my favorite city and there’s so many mods to choose from.
I would also recomend alongside Bears of the North to also get Wolves of Skyrim. Much greater improvement and fitting for this showcase, compared to Vanilla Wolves
I wish we could have some type of sailing mod to go with all of these Viking mods. It would be amazing to be able to sail the rivers and seas of Skyrim.
First off, I want to say thank you for making this. Skyrim looks fantastic after the mods, and I'll definitely be using this as a guide for my own. There is one error you made I wanted to mention though, the Blackwater Blade doesn't have Viking runestones near the hilt XD sorry, those are Daedric runes. :p Just wanted to point that out.
Yep, as a Norwegian, I can verify that most of the stuff Redbag has made looks extremely Norwegian. Like, his overhaul of Falkreath genuinely is like walking through the Norwegian folk museum. Cities of the North are nice and unique, but they're very clearly fantasy with little basis in any real-world cultures.
Are we players able to find a mod to alter all the books? Storyline featuring the Sagas would be so sick; or the story static & is dependent on the vanilla books found within the realm?

The Eastern side is Norway and Denmark. The west is England and Scotland. With solitude being England and the reach Scotland. Elder scrolls nords are anglo saxon and norse and highlander and dane all at once.
Either way it's a really cool mod list. But I'd love the variety added by the other cultural elements nords have in the elder scrolls lore!

Hi Burns You Should Make A Turning Skyrim Into A Hunting Simulator Video Also Thnks For The Great Content Man!!
Any suggestions of an ENB till this is released?
is true directional movement compatible with the combat mods shown in the video. also animations for females would that break the character ?

@@BlueTeamNorsemen just update the game

I was hoping you’d make another viking makeover! :D Well done editing as always too, Burns! 🛡🪓⚔️
Wow this is the earliest ive been to one of heavy burns amazing high quality vids
The whiterun armor from the mod, "sons of skyrim", gives me Rohan vibes and I'm all for it.
