Some people have mentioned that this video has a similar premise to a video posted by ConstantDino on Fallout New Vegas recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-RlRtptZ3U

I hadn't seen that video when I made this originally, and the premise is a bit different (attempting to delete as much of the game as possible rather than just removing non-essential textures to play around) but having seen it now I highly recommend you all give it a watch if you haven't already! That video goes WAY deeper into the actual file structure of the game beyond just the texture files I was playing around with here.

Finally: Skyrim Demastered

Skyrim textureless geoguessr when?

This is like if you were a kid and played with legos for everything but the realistic dragon figure you borrowed from your older brothers room

This is what Jyggalag's realm looks like

So as weird as this sounds, this makes me feel a lot more confident as someone making a game. I mean, possibly THE most known video game of all time... Looks like this underneath.

you took away the sky from skyrim. Now its just rim

Everything looks like it would be squeaky

I love how everything is just so... Shiny.

Welcome to Skyrim but Alduin already ate most of the world

There's something beautiful about this, like a landscape blanketed in untouched snow. Effervescent

Totally Accurate Skyrim Simulator

It's like a Skyrim-themed SuperHot mod. Lol.

Ngl, this gives me the same vibes as when you get new minis to paint. It's so *clean"

"Dusk and dawn, I think, are really where it's at"

[Azura liked that.]

this is how i saw for like a couple of minutes before i fainted because of dehydration once. It was an experience for sure

Helgen? More like Hel-gone.
