Skyrim Retro Graphics Mod Looks Amazing

http://www.gamersnexus.net/news-pc/685-play-skyrim-in-retro-graphics-minecraft-mode

It looks very interesting :), if I had Skyrim for the PC I'd download it and try it out.

I hate mods. They completely alter the way the game is supposed to be played. Its like altering a movie or book to fit your needs. Its not the way developers intended the game to be played.Miketheman83

You play a game however you want to play it :o

You have no clue of what you are talking about and shouldn't have a say in the matter.

Bethesda relies on the modding community and says that they want mods on consoles. Mods are part of the Elder Scrolls experience :?

They're the one big advantage that PC has over consoles for Elder Scrolls games.

It's like staring into the sun with a magnifying glass.

Looks kinda cool, but it's a little hard to make out what some of that stuff is.

I mean, WTF is this? :?

To the untrained eye, it may look like a rock, but that's only because it is.

I think it's a rock :P

Well, the mod isn't complete yet, but it looks amazing so far. I like the idea.

Lol.

You probably wouldn't even need to spend much over $700 on a i5 2500k build, with a high-end graphics to run Skyrim on ultra in 1080p @ 60fps.

My friend has a dual core CPU with a 256mb graphics card and 8gb of ram. He runs Skyrim on medium settings with 2x AA on 30fps. If a computer like that can do that, then a $700-$1000 computer can run Skyrim maxed with a very high fps.

What's wrong with expanding your experience? Play the game how it's meant to be played, and then have some fun.

It's not like you can't just install/uninstall mods as you wish.

:shock: That's odd.

Maybe it's due to the performance lag or memory problems it's been having on different systems?

I know a few people who run Skyrim maxed at 60fps running on 460's. It's Bethesda though, this sort of stuff is unpredictable with them :P

What's funny is that Bethesda meant for Skyrim to be heavily modded. That's why they give so much support to mods through their Construction Kit.

Ew, >.>mrmusicman247

Mixed reactions, lol. I personally like the look of the trees, the wood, the rocks, and such. Sure I wouldn't play the entire game like that, but It'd be good fun trying it out.

I agree. Modding should be illegal. I'd go as far as to say that it's as morally problematic as piracy.

Bethesda even relies on the community to fix Skyrim's glitches, and a lot of the improvements from Oblivion to Skyrim was based off of Oblivion mods.

That is also a huge point. Play it how the developers intended it to be played... Oh, but look, they released the Construction Kit meant for modding. Whoa :shock:

4. I'm completely right.

Why would to mod a game to make it look **** I mean it's not a question of artstyle, but you're literally turning off all the effects and replacing textures with ones that look like ****
