      Thats true. I understand the engine had it own limitations in 2011, to have a larger world in creation engine they had to go through loading screens, like they did for cities (whiterun, riften etc.). But for present times, it looks weird, when we know what the lore says.@@davyman2000

      ​@@ankush_dogra_jk Fun fact, there's a mod called Open Cities Skyrim, which as the name suggests makes every city in Skyrim be part of the open world. It's a very liberating feeling to go through the open gates of a big city in Skyrim, and have no invisible walls separating the city from the Skyrim open world whenever you decide to parkour your way on top of a city's walls.

      It's the only city for which the scale kinda makes sense. It was completely razed, I guess most people either died or left after having lost everything. It could have been repopulated a bit because the College is still there so it would attract new people, but in the game the only ones left are old survivors who resent it, not newcomers... So it's safe to say it's just abandoned and dying.

      Can't rebuild if no one wants to live there. Winterhold still has the College Stigma and it's harsh environment preventing it from getting people to move in. And I'm guessing it's harder to build in snowy environments with the few people they have.

    I love these videos because they put the land of Skyrim into proper scale. Going from Markarth all the way to Windhelm for instance, even on horseback, would take about two weeks. Through projects like this, we get to see the true scale of Skyrim, as well as its beauty that could not be shown in the game, from the sprawling cities of Solitude, Whiterun, and Windhelm, to the ancient city of the Dwarves, Markarth, carved into the side of a mountain, to the sea side ruins of what was once a great city, Winterhold.

    I really, really like this Winterhold. Ruins easily cover twice, thrice the surface of the town, yet town itself have quite homely look to it, and then there is College of Winterhold, as big as city itself, looming over it like grand monolith, with this physics-ignoring bridge to top if off. It seriously fits, and makes atmosphere of the place so much paltable.

I was so much into the lore, trying to pick my favourites teachers (faralda for destruction magic), plus the magic classes in the big room. I loved the ambient of this city that has so many secrets and a nostalgic vibe considering the history of The Great Collapse. I always wanted to see a true Winterhold and I am still craving to look at one version prior to The Great Collapse. However you managed to nail every details of this city at the perfection, with the ruins, Azura (my favourite daedra with Arena Lelith her priest) . Thank you so much really.

    Did just get a team of coders together and lawyers and put some good mods in and just finish the game with all buildings fully built inside. Just finish the game like this. It’s absolutely amazing. We are all drooling to play it like this. I’m sure there are plenty of fans that are skilled enough to help finish this project for free just for the chance to play it like this. Thank you from all of us in advance. Your work on this is truly breathtaking.

    I remembered playing a mage in Skyrim and feeling a little bit disappointed with Winterhold since I thought it should be bigger. This is what it should have been. Magnificent.

    It looks spectacular. If it was like that in game, it would also make it feel like the jarls were true leaders. Now a big bandit camp chief has as many subjects as the jarl of Winterhold.
    That being said, there could be more variety in the city layout considering how the citizens create their livelihoods. Back in those times, towns were also full of domesticated animals, like goats, poultry, and such. The inner courtyards of households were for them (surrounded by outbuildings and fences). I reckon around the jarl's longhouse and between it and the college, would be the fancier houses for the wealthier people, a side office for the Companions, bigger business buildings, and towards the outer edges of the city the households would become simpler, with agriculture and animal husbandry increasing. Particularly noisy and smelly trades ought to also find themselves a distance away from the jarl's house. The college would probably support a good bunch of people so that their trade wouldn't be obvious from their house, like was the case with most of the houses in your video. But it would still be just a fraction of the city population.
    A couple of big market squares should also be found. I feel like the folks would have also built a new temple as well, already, even if not as grand as there probably was before the collapse.

    I have run out of words for how incredibly, amazingly wonderful your videos and talent are. This Winterhold definitely makes it seem more like the old capital of Skyrim and it's heartbreaking. I really like the way you show daytime and night time. And the College of Winterhold certainly has a villainous type of vibe, which is perfect for how it's viewed by its own townspeople. All the destroyed buildings just kind of increase the feeling of loss. It's good to see it at this size too because the way that game shows it there's no reason for having a jarl for just a couple of people. Winterhold seriously wouldn't be sustainable. There's nowhere to plant food and with such a few people few Traders would head that way. Scope of your Winterhold makes it much more viable. And I loved the way you did the worn bridge to the college. They definitely better fix that before they're completely cut off from the mainland LOL.

    0:06 - Despite this being a tree-line and the right-frontal view of the Collage of Winterhold, something seems amiss, something seems... bigger. You can tell the scale of things has increased drastically. The engine also makes this location majestic to behold.
    0:22 - A lonely lookout amidst rubble and rock, overseeing winterhold. You get a feeling of solace, as if you are remembering what was - a bigger kingdom, one rife with culture and life. Despite its rather bleak appearance, it speaks more volumes than the Guide to the Empire books.
    0:27 - 0:38 - leading on from last comment. You begin to see what was... you also begin to be unable to fathom what could have done such wrathful damage. Or rather, how this damage occurred.
    0:39 - just... beautiful, serene, complete. Just how I image in in my head. Nothing more, just pure, unadulterated beauty.
    0:47 - 1:02 - Again, beauty. Except this time. You get a sense of community, a warm feeling despite the cold atmosphere present. It feels like the people there have something to old Winterhold citizens didn't - hope. Hope that they could recover from travesty.
    Cinematics and general - This is true beauty. Taking what was previously a dingy, depressing town-like "city" and bringing it back from the brink of total and complete loss. Bringing a sense of pride, recovery, and comradery to the people and the city itself. This is a location I would love to visit and complete *every* side quest present there.
    Graphics and appearance - Thanks to unreal engine 5 and some work done by yourself, this place not only looks real, but real-life type real. It looks like something I would actually lay my eyes on. Well done.
    Conclusion - I want it, and I want it now.
