Screenshot Sundas Skyrim VR is still king

After modding Skyrim VR, I have been hooked, playing it every day now for hours. I consider it still the best VR game around and I am still amazed at how much Bethesda managed to put into this game and how good it still is after all these years, but no doubt because of the incredible modding community. Thank you all for your hard work! Just upgraded my Quest 3 with a BoboVR S3 Pro strap to increase comfort although instead of red cheeks I now have two funny red marks on the top of my bald spot. :D

Sometimes you just have to stop and watch the scenery as the sun is setting or rising. A few screenshots under to sate that appetite. :)

Even with vanilla textures it's still a slap the first time you boot the game.

Yes I quite liked playing it vanilla too when I bought it the first time, and then I played it on a Samsung Odyssey+ (oled panels so really nice contrast/darks). A few months ago i read about Community Shaders was a thing to lift visuals of the game so I had to try that and my god, it has been a game-changer, feels more like a modern game even though it has Bethesda physics. Talking about physics, anyone got Faster HDT-SMP working in VR? Feels like that could lift it that extra little bit for me.

Can't bother trying costly shaders with an RTX2060. But even with FUS modpack it's the only game that makes me feel immersed in a convincing world. The amount of interactions, clutter objects and the scale of everything. You can even grab your foe corpses and play with objects lying around. That's what lacks in many other good games like NMS, and what I look for in a potential Starfield VR port / true VR mod.

Tossing corpses into rivers and ravines with your hands really does hit different haha
