Skyrim and Icewind Dale fans, here is something for you today. Modders have recreated the prologue from the classic 2D isometric RPG: Icewind Dale in Skyrim. As such, you will be able to explore this location in 3D. Not only that but the mod comes with a number of quests to complete.
Going into more details, The Elder Scrolls V: Kuldahar lets you explore the quiet fishing village of Easthaven and the scenic druidic settlement of Kuldahar located in the northernmost regions of the D&D world of Faerun.
As said, the mod comes complete with new areas to explore and a plethora of unique NPCs to talk to across multiple small quests. Players will also find over 15 new weapons/weapon varieties to use. Plus, there are some unique enchanted items to find. Oh, and there is also a functional class system lightly inspired by old DnD rulesets.
Do note that this is NOT a remake of the entire Icewind Dale game in Skyrim. So, don’t expect anything as complex as that. Instead, consider this a lite demo of what Icewind Dale could look like in Skyrim’s engine.
You can go ahead and download the mod from this link. At the end of the article, you can also find a trailer for it.
Speaking of Skyrim, here are some big fan expansions for it. The First one is Wyrmstooth. Wyrmstooth will add new quests and dungeons to the game. Then there is this mod that brings elements from The Witcher games into Skyrim. Dragon Hall Tavern is a huge 2GB mod that adds quests, new places, an arena, and more. Then there’s Land of Vominhem, Apotheosis and Legacy of the Dragonborn. Don’t forget to also check out this Castlevania-inspired mod. Modders have also recreated the classic PSX game, MediEvil in Skyrim. Shumer and the Priest Kings is another DLC fan expansion mod with over 200 locations, 180+ quests and 8,500 lines of voiced dialogue. Oh, and here is another one that adds the cool Nemesis system from Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor to it. Lastly, we have this mod that adds six new islands to explore.
And that’s not all. Skyrim has other mods that add lots of cool stuff.
For instance, this Call of Duty Mod adds 12 new fully functional weapons. Then we have this mod that brings epic battles with hundreds of infantry, tanks, and aircrafts. This is one of the best modern-day mods for Skyrim, so be sure to check it out. There’s also a cool mod that allows you to destroy a lot of objects. You can also download this mod that makes the NPCs smarter. With this mod, NPCs will now have a dynamic AI system, and they’ll seek for cover.

And then we have this cool World of Tanks Mod. Finally, these mods add Subsurface Scattering, Dynamic Cubemaps, Water Caustics and Parallax Mapping to the game.
