Who doesn’t know it: Skyrim in 4K, with ray tracing effects, new vegetation and more. Undoubtedly, the RPG from 2011 can still look very pretty today. A player on Reddit is pursuing a different modding approach. His sky rim hasn’t changed too much from the outside, but he’s made Skyrim rock hard – and plays as Ciri from the Witcher games.
By the way, it is still uncertain whether the child of the older blood will actually become the main character of the new Witcher:

Mixture of Elden Ring and Witcher
On Reddit, sekoepat posted a short clip from his modded Skyrim and compares it to Elden Ring because of the high difficulty:

Experienced dragon slayers may recognize the location, a northern ruin near the city of Whiterun. But apart from the environment, the original Skyrim is hardly recognizable: the combat system has apparently been massively changed, and sekoepat also uses new abilities such as the teleportation known from Ciri from Witcher 3.
If you look closely, you can also see that in Skyrim modded in this way it is not possible to simply inhale a range of healing potions. Because, as inspired by Witcher, healing by potion increases the character’s poisoning, and therefore cannot be used indefinitely.
The other way around, you can also play Witcher with mods more like Skyrim, for example from a first-person perspective:

Over 500 mods
One of the first questions that comes up in such a presentation is, of course, which mods are used here. The contributor finally heard the pleas from the comments and provided his complete mod list from 503 minor and major changes to the world of Skyrim.
Admittedly, by modding Skyrim you can extend its playing time almost indefinitely. Géraldine would still prefer to take the predecessor Oblivion with him to the lonely island – you can find out why in the video:

For Géraldine, nothing tops Oblivion – not even Skyrim!
The Elder Ring: Wild Hunt
Under the post, many Reddit users agree with the author’s assessment, and are amused by the crazy mix of Witcher and Elden Ring. However, some players are also impressed by how little the result of 500 mods is reminiscent of Skyrim.
Der User Duowithng jokingly points this outthat Ciri is even canon in Skyrim since she can travel to many different worlds after all. Others invent suitable names for it new
game, how about The Elder Rings: Sky Hunt
