Don’t worry, it’s not as hard as it looks to install - just follow the instructions and you’ll be good to go! The Grim and Somber ENBs are a collection of ENB post-processing presets meant to give Skyrim a darker mood. But if you want to bring Skyrim's atmosphere closer to Dark Souls', you can do to Skyrim what every fantasy and sci-fi film director has done to their own works: add post-processing effects! (If you really want to crack down on the potion chugging, you may want to check out Potions Animated, which forces the player character through a drinking animation whenever they consume a potion.)ĭark Souls and Skyrim are all about atmosphere, and they both nail it - in their own respective ways. The mod is also highly configurable, and you’ll be able to pick and choose which menus you want exempt from the modified menu behavior (for example, you may not want the game to continue running while the system menu is open). This means that you won’t be able to open your inventory to pause combat, chug five healing potions, swap out your armor, eat a wheel of cheese, and then resume combat. SkyrimSouls - Unpaused Game Menu does exactly what it says: it stops in-game menus from pausing the game.

With “SkyrimSouls” in its title, there can be no mistake about which audience this mod was intended for - though of course, players looking for a more immersive Skyrim experience will appreciate the mod’s function all the same.
