Walk Everywhere Probably the single easiest way to make Skyrim more immersive is to stop using fast travel. You dont have to stop using it completely, just make a point of limiting it. Force yourself to use the carriages instead to travel large distances and walk everywhere else, or limit it to transporting loot back and forth from the dungeons. Make a point of walking more, and mean walking, not running everywhere. (You can set the bAlwaysRunByDefault setting to 0 in the SkyrimPrefs.ini file to tell the game to make walking your default action instead of running. Just remember to back up your file before changing it.) Half the pleasure of playing the game is drinking in the landscape, watching the grass sway in the breeze, watching shadows creep across the rocky ground as the sun makes its way across the sky, staring into the setting sun as it descends on Skyrims rugged landscape, admiring the silver shimmer of the stars and the majestic rise of Tamriels twin moons. Take the time to listen to the sound of babbling brooks, bird calls and the haunting melody of the soundtrack. Believe it or not, an old platitude lifted from real life applies equally well to your sojourn in Tamriel: you might not be able to smell the flowers, but you can certainly take the time to stop and admire them. (And harvest them, too, of course!) While youre out wandering around, dont forget to take some screenshots.
