My review is only positive because the modding community fixed the game and because it's not nearly as bad as Fallout 4 VR.

I questioned myself if i should recommend this VR remake. I recommend Skyrim, but i am disappointed in VR remake, because they didn't put much effort in making it full VR scope game. Big thanks to modders i can fully enjoy it!

this game is great... however with Skyrim script extender, HIGGS and Mod organiser 2 on nexus mods makes the experience a lot better, like the base game is good but you don't get the full experience that the game should be played at, but the game is 10/10 and a wholesome experience to play in VR

i shout but nothing comes out all i hear are guards telling me im the dragonborn and to shout but nothing comes out my screams are not heard

Refunded, do not buy this game, do not give them your time. This is a meager attempt at VR that was then abandoned by Bethesda, mods fix it but I rather have less headache and play the base game.

get HIGGS, PLANK, and VRIK otherwise unplayable

great game, amazing atmosphere, but its unplayable without mods.

pros: mods
cons: everything else

I recommend this game only because of mods, but at this point that's basically Bethesda Game Rule #1 - Skyrim is the last mainline product they put out that even remotely holds up without mods. And without mods, this game is just a boring and buggy port of vanilla skyrim, but that's still better than the unplayable mess that is Fallout 4 VR.

But with the right mods - namely VRIK, HIGGS, PLANCK, and some basic graphics upgrades - this honestly becomes one of the best VR experiences out there. The modding community is amazing for Skyrim, and a lot of the SE mods are still compatible out of the box in VR, or have patches.

As old as this game is, there's still something special and wondrous about wandering around a Falmer cave or a Dwemer ruin in VR. Skyrim itself is still a magnificent relic, and seeing it up close and personal is a genuinely immersive experience. Give it a shot, it's worth the stress of getting the mods to work, I promise.
