Realistic Water Two, drawing and expanding on the work of some earlier water mods, adds better ripples, larger splashes, re-textured foam and faster water flow in streams, bobbing chunks of ice, and even murky, stagnant-looking water in dungeons.
For all your extremely realistic screenshot-taking needs. Skyrim's NPCs already looked dated when the game was first released, and they certainly haven't aged well. The SSE might improve the looks of the world, but it doesn't touch its citizens, so this mod from Scaria should be on your list. It gives everyone in the game including your avatar a facelift with more detailed textures that won't kneecap your framerate, without making characters look out of place.
We can all agree Bethesda's RPGs aren't often stunners in the hair department. So many hair mods get carried away turning characters into models, though. Vanilla Hair Replacer aims for more lore-friendly changes for Skyrim's default hair choices so NPCs look a less scraggly but still like they hail from Skyrim.
Be sure to check the "recommended mods" section of the page to get your characters looking exactly like the ones in the screenshots. While Skyrim Special Edition adds plenty of enhanced visuals, it doesn't do a thing to improve the original game's low-poly meshes.
This mod edits hundreds of 3D models placed in thousands of different locations for items like furniture, clutter, architectural elements, and landscape objects to make them look nicer and more realistic. Hear me out. Aside from NPC's faces, what are you going to have your nose up against in Skyrim most often? Well yeah, enemies, but also doors! Modder "Hype1" has created lots of new door meshes with glorious 4k textures so you'll never be stuck picking the lock on a low-res door again.
While you're at it, Book Covers is a mod that will make books as beautiful as they deserve to be. Skyrim is an even more beautiful place thanks to the visual mods and new locations on this list, but you'll want to populate it with interesting people too. These mods add some of our favorite companion characters, and some cool creatures for them to fight too. This companion mod is a particularly sweet one, based on popular octogenarian YouTuber Shirley Curry, otherwise known as the "Skyrim Grandma".
Created by fans and voiced by Curry herself, the Shirley companion shares Curry's likeness. Tamriel's Shirley has her own lore-appropriate backstory too. After you've completed her recruitment quest, Shirley will join you, fighting alongside you as a barbarian warrior—Curry's preferred combat style. Curry has already started playing with the mod herself, which you can catch the beginning of in her new video series. Maybe you don't think a blue Khajiit who follows you around commenting on everything and being sarcastic about Lydia is what Skyrim needs, but trust us on this.
Inigo has tons of dialogue, some tied to his own questline and more that crops up at appropriate times depending on the location you're at. He can be told where to go and what to do by whistling, and will follow you even if you've got an existing companion, chatting away with them thanks to skilfully repurposed voice lines.
A sequel to a much-loved Oblivion mod which Terry Pratchett contributed to , Vilja in Skyrim adds the great-granddaughter of the original Vilja as a follower. She's an alchemist with her own questline to follow and a unique system to give her orders—essentially spells bound to hotkeys that can be used to co-ordinate attacks. Like Inigo she doesn't count toward your follower limit, and if introduced to each other Inigo and Vilja will even chat among themselves.
Will we ever tire of crossovers between our favorite big RPGs? No, we definitely will not. This follower mod adds a custom-made Yennefer that re-purposes her lines of dialogue from The Witcher 3.
She dual wields magic, of course. Sadly, she isn't eligible for marriage. The same modder has also made a Ciri follower mod and contributed to mods for Geralt and Triss followers all based on their Wild Hunt selves. This extremely popular mod for Oldrim is one you'll want to grab the Special Edition version of too. It lets you micromanage a lot of details about your companions like their gear, how to fight, and which of your many houses to live in.
This mod makes having a horse much less of a headache. You can have conversations from horseback. You can loot and gather herbs while mounted. Your followers can even buy and ride their own horses instead of sprinting helplessly behind you. Despite the Special Edition's visual overhaul, its dragons are still a bit ho-hum. This mod, contributed to by a large collection of modders, adds 28 new and unique dragons with different models and textures, and capable of over a dozen new breath attacks and abilities.
The dragons come in different ranks as well, to ensure you have a challenge no matter what your level. With Strigoi installed, whenever vampires spawn there's a chance to meet some of its new varieties of bloodsucker. These powered-up undead might turn into bats, throw you around, or just generally be a lot tougher than regular vampires. Why is it always spiders in RPGs? Well, it doesn't have to be. Insects Begone replaces all the spiders and chaurus insects with bears and skeevers instead.
It also removes decorative spiderwebs and other spider-related decor. If you can't deal with all the giant spiders plaguing Skyrim, this mod will squash them. If being the Dragonborn isn't enough, these mods give you new abilities to tinker with.
Some are mundane skills like additional crafting abilities, others are new shouts and spells to play with. Arcanum is a huge addition to Skyrim's magic system. It lets you summon tornados and meteors among many other feats. It doesn't just throw all these new skills at you as soon as it's installed, though. Arcanum is great for starting a new playthrough of Skyrim with because unlocking spells is a more lore-friendly journey of custom quests, crafting, and adventuring.
CGO strikes a great balance for those wanting a bit more out of Skyrim's combat without turning it into too much of a fast-paced action game. It adds the ability to dodge roll, which surprisingly looks pretty decent in first-person.
There's also the ability to switch between one- and two-handed grips to change how attacks land. Oh, and you can attack in midair, along with lots of other smaller tweaks. Modder "DServant" also created the Archery Gameplay Overhaul which takes a similarly even-handed approach to improving bow use. Wildcat is a much heavier combat overhaul, and an extremely popular one. It makes combat more deadly with increased damage and stamina use, but that's not all.
From new cobblestone pathways to borderline tasty-looking dirt, practically every inch of the Skyrim gets a faux-HD lick of paint with this one. PC players get the best results, but even the console versions will get a noteworthy upgrade here.
Once installed, this sprawling community-made dungeon will show up somewhere around Skyrim, promising new items, perks, armor, and even a mount to those who can solve its puzzles -- most of which feature completely custom designs otherwise unknown to the game.
Keep its location a secret from yourself and stumbling upon it on your travels might remind you of that scaling sense of adventure Skyrim offered on that first or even third playthrough. Why bother with the duties of a dragon-slaying prophet when you can turn to a life of piracy, chugging rum, swinging your cutlass, and singing along the seas? Steal the treasures of Cyrus, learn what dreadful fate befell him and his crew, and live to carry on his legacy.

Ever thought that your follower options were too limited? They can't mount horses, their AI is a bit limited, dismissing them means they automatically go back to where you found them. Talking to any follower will give you the Tweak Options dialogue, which is the primary interface to customize the exact changes you want your follower to undertake, There is also a new command power that gives you additional control to how your follower behaves in combat.
Though these interfaces you can tell followers to attack or hold back, come over to your location, and even tell then to transform into their Beast forms. You can set it so that followers will catch up to yo you prepare for an attack, and you can up their carrying capacity to units, amongst a slew of other options.
This is a simple mod that makes it so that the mining animation does not slow down your gathering spree. There is even an option to make the game not require your character to have a pickaxe on hand in order to mine.
This is a mod that fully changes the textures, clothings, equipment, etc of your character and your followers. It even adds two optional new followers to the base game of Skyrim Special Edition. Note that the creator of this mod suggests that you do not run any other sort of face or body mods with this in order to ensure compatibility, though it is compatible with a list of several other highly recommended mods, including the Skyrim Unofficial Patch mod.
This mod also improves the facial features of unique npcs and gives the player many more user presets to choose from when creating their character. Apocalypse adds new spells to Skyrim Special Edition that are unique, balanced, and even lore friendly. The new spells are integrated seamlessly into the Skyrim experience, and can be looted along with the base game spells of the same level in the same manner. The mod is supposed to be compatible with other spell mods, including mods that affect the way spells scale with your character's level.
