The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim Ultima looks like an entirely new game

I’m not one to put my personal opinion across in my articles but seeingThe Elder Scrolls: Skyrim Ultimahas blown me away.

Check out some funny wins & fails fromSkyrimbelow!

Nukt took to Youtube tosharea 12-minute look at the gameplay you can expect fromUltimawhich sees our Dragonborn learn Words of Power from the Greybeards, fight sneaky bandits with new and improved third-person combat and even switch appearance at ease through a modern UI upgrade.

It’s worth noting thatUltimastarted life via the popular modlist Nolvus, from creator Vektor. This is something Nukt is keen to make clear when it comes to sharing credit for the amazing work that’s been done here.

Gone are the originalSkyrimdays when we would have to jump onto our horse and spam jump until we reached the top of a mountain. Could we have gone around? Yes. Were we going to? No. Now thanks toUltima,you will be able to climb mountains Assassin’s Creed-style which makes parkour and traversal a whole lot easier.

No amount of updated modding is going to stop the occasional trap-related deaths in Draugr caves but every other aspect of the 12-year oldBethesdatitle has been improved and updated thanks to Nukt’sUltimamod.

“The combat is so satisfying it really makes you feel like the actual Dragonborn,” read one Youtube comment. “The mountain climbing is a game changer instead of just spamming jump lmao. The Draugr sounds were terrifying. Regardless I hope Bethesda is taking notes, this completely changed the game.”

Another agreed, saying: “Damn you can’t even tell it’sSkyrimanymore. Usually a lot of animation mods are pretty janky and clip pretty badly too. But with your configuration it’s so seamless like 90% of the time. Not to mention your UI and audio overall givesSkyrima very updated touch. This is one of the most impressively blended mod lists I’ve ever seen. And the graphics are beautiful.”
