YMMV / Beyond Skyrim

  • Awesome Music: The Bruma soundtrack by Daniel Ran deserves serious props for its fidelity to the musical style of both Skyrim and Oblivion, while also pulling off its own themes beautifully. Especially of note is "Maker of Worlds", a wondrous piece with a hint of melancholy that invokes the themes of "Auriel's Ascension" that plays when you first enter Cyrodiil, and the sombre "Last of the Guard", a remix of "Peace of Akatosh", which plays as you explore the ruin of Cloud Ruler Temple. On the more original composition side, there are the soaring and subtly epic "Of Storms and Half-light" and the absolutely beautiful "Nox Atra". The production value is also truly impressive for a what is "merely" a soundtrack for a free mod, featuring both real instruments and even choir song on several tracks.
  • Friendly Fandoms: There is quite a bit of overlap in Beyond Skyrim's fanbase with the other large-scale Elder Scrolls modding projects, Tamriel Rebuilt, and the Fan Remakes Skyblivion and Skywind. This extends to the developer teams as well, which according to the developers themselves have at least some degree of overlap.
