Until now. Frostfall is one of the most popular mods out there as it adds the concept of making campfires and managing exposure to extreme cold. Walking over to Winterhold won't be that easy now, as you'll have to fight off hypothermia and avoid cold rivers that can seriously damage your character's health.
Hypothermia is one thing, but what about other kinds of needs? Skyrim introduced cooking as an aspect of the game, but Bethesda failed to make it an integral part of gameplay due to how little food items actually heal the player. Not to worry, however, because there's a mod to fix this too. The Realistic Needs mod introduces thirst, sleep and hunger as three basic needs you'll have to manage during your adventures.
Your character will need to think about hydration, as well as making food. If not, they'll deal with the effects of starvation. Sleeping and actually making use of bedrolls and inns is also a challenging and welcome addition to the game. Now that the whole survival aspect of Skyrim has been covered, let's talk about enemies, because that's the part of the game that will really bump of the difficulty.
Starting off with very small and basic tweaks is the Requiem mod , which is focused on making combat more realistic for each type of enemy. While Requiem doesn't bump up the difficulty of enemies directly, it changes the way you need to tackle combat and fight off certain threats. Rather than just running at things with a sword in hand, players will have to make use of other skills and gameplay features to survive the encounter.
With combat brought to a more strategic level, it's time to actually make some of the enemies you encounter a bit more consistent with the Dragonborn's leveling process. Although Skyrim introduces a light scaling of its enemies, the High Level Enemies mod makes this aspect of the game even better. New and daunting enemies will be introduced as soon as you reach level 10, so you'll be be faced with challenge fairly early on in the game.
This doesn't just include the old, well-known critters everyone's familiar with, but new beastly variants as well. Even if the health pool and level of enemies is tweaked, there's still the problem of having these incredibly predictable AIs running around doing the same thing you've always seen them do.
That's why a mod like Smilodon is an absolute necessity because it makes Skyrim's AIs much smarter. Thanks to the mod hostile NPCs will play in a much smarter way, which will turn combat into a real challenge even for seasoned players.
You'll have to watch out for attacks of opportunity, as well as intelligent blocks from enemies with shields. She has a unique appearance that makes her differ from many of the other characters in the game. Basically, a really cool follower to keep around.
This expands the way followers work and takes the experience to a completely different plane of existence. Vilja is a cool bard that resembles Daenerys Targaryen a bit, but has her complete opposite personality. Her backstory is as cool as they get, too, enriching the experience while holding pretty lore-friendly.
She even has a small story progression system that makes her an even more appealing companion to keep around. And he can even level up alongside you to make it all feel even more realistic, yet not OP.
She is voiced by a professional voice actor and provides you with an experience that no other follower in the game is capable of giving. Smart, good-looking, and with a killer eye for hunting prey — whether it be a beast or a human. The list is almost endless.

Skyrim, frankly, wasn't really that fantastic looking to begin with, so there have naturally been a lot—a lot —of visual improvement mods over the years. Here's how to squeeze improved visuals out of the aging RPG.
A compilation of existing changes to NPC appearances, the Total Character Makeover makes everyone in Skyrim look better without making them better-looking, if you catch our drift. No nudity, no anime hair, no glamazon makeup, just a suite of new textures and tweaks to everything from beards to vampire fangs.
You may have noticed some things in Skyrim that should be sources of light don't actually cast any, while in other places things are brightly lit for no real reason. Enhanced Lights and FX fixes that, making light shine where it should. There are options for just how dark you want interiors to be, and enabling those will mean torches and spells like candlelight are vital.
It also makes some nice tweaks to the appearance of smoke. Does what it says: replaces Skyrim's textures: sky, water, architecture, clothing, clutter, reflections, and so on, of the cities, towns, dungeons, and landscapes. There's a full version if your PC can handle it, but there's also a lite version that should make things look nicer without killing your performance. This comprehensive mod adds hundreds of new weather systems, a huge library of new cloud systems, a new sun, improved lighting for both fans of a fantasy look and realistic visuals, and even audio improvements.
With all of these systems combining, each day in Skyrim will feel different from the last. A pretty hefty collection of high-quality replacements for Skyrim textures, covering everything from equipment, landscapes, dungeons, and architecture.
While they look much nicer, the textures are the same resolution as Bethesda's high-res DLC pack so it shouldn't slow you down. Make sure you read the notes on the mod's page. There are hotfixes required to get everything working.
This mod edits a number of 3D models in the game, and with over meshes placed in over 15, locations in the world, it's a welcome difference. You'll notice better looking architectural elements, furniture, objects in the landscape, and all sorts of other models that didn't get much attention from Bethesda.
Get immersed in new audio: tons of it. Hundreds of new sounds effects are included to make dungeons and sewers spookier, enhance the wilderness and wildlife, and make cities and villages more lively and real. This mod is a treat for your ears, and has customizable modules for each type of area.
Enhances your graphics with FXAA and other post effects, such as sharpen and bloom, creating crisper visuals and more vibrant colors.
Conveniently, you can adjust these settings while you play by alt-tabbing out and moving the sliders on the mod's desktop utility. This mod comes in three different versions, depending on how drastically you want to change your game. All versions promise more luxurious trees and bark, taller grass, and prettier plant life. The heavier versions completely replace the trees altogether and give you lusher greens for a summery feel.
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.
It's the next best thing to getting wet. If you're looking to get closer to reality with crisp visuals, this ENB configuration is one to try.
