After playing more than 10 times, you will find yourself falling into a kind of rhythm. Repeat the same steps to create the same characters and complete the same quest. Before you know it, you settled in a ditch and the game feels unattractive with every second you keep playing.
Sometimes, if you know everything there is, everything feels too easy. In that case, you will need to set limits on yourself. This is a restriction that we pledge to obey.
As you explore these limitations and pass through previous boundaries, suddenly, the world of Skarim explodes with life and colour once more.
In this list, we explore 10 ideas that will push and rekindle your passion for the world of Tamriel to your limits.

Be a pacifist
Violence is never the answer
Pacifist. How on earth does it work? Well, first of all, it might help you write a little backstory for your character. Perhaps you are a peaceful maiden or kind priest, specializing in restoration and following your God’s Word. Therefore, murder is prohibited… at least by your own hands.
While you’re healed from the backline, consider gathering a group of followers to do your dirty work for you, or perhaps leveling your collaboration and doing exactly the same with the residents ahead. Maybe you can lead your enemies to a deadly trap or even lead them to the reverse pick pocket.
Was it killed? Who says it? Your morality may only be growing so far. The magical world is at your freedom, it depends on how best you use it.

Do not use quick sub
Every action has a result
Skyrim’s Quicksave system has always been pretty overwhelming. It encourages you to save almost every time you do something.
Whether you’re jumping off a cliff, fighting tough enemies, or even more dangerous than stealing something from someone else’s pocket. It really eliminates any sense of risk you may have. Because you can quickly restart and try again.
So, what happens if your actions have real consequences? You may think twice before choosing that pocket so that you don’t get imprisoned. You will prepare more before a big fight and probably do your best to tilt the odds in your favor. All this adds a delicious sense of risk and reward to your new playthrough.

Companionless
In a vast world, alone
This is truly an independence trial. This challenge means you no longer request anyone’s services! And I mean everyone!
This means (even dogs) do not use conjurations to summon Atronochs or raise the dead. What a sad thing. This challenge will help you express your knowledge about the game. Soak in the vast wilderness, If necessary, become a hermit in a small hillside cave.
You are the unhappy person in a world that doesn’t bother you. But can you ignore the odds and make it work?

Penny-free poor
It’s not the septum of his name
Skyrim’s endgame players will know how incredibly easy it is to make money in this world. After selling seductive items and fully busted portions, you will soon find yourself having more money than you feel.
But have you ever wondered how often you’ll spend that money? Every time you buy from the store, you either buy a house or get away with the law. If you have unlimited cash, you don’t think about spending. but When you’re forced to go cashless, that’s another story.
This is to use the world for your benefit. You can’t level up a simple Smith from Delphine, or even ride a horse or cart from outside of Whiten. You’ll have to do everything for yourself! Ironman style. And if someone gives you money, do you remember? You throw it on the ground! This is the way.

Try a specific build run
D&D Character Sheet
This is a great central option I want a little challenge, but it doesn’t break my soul too much.
There are plenty of lists to give you lots of ideas to build. For example, you can try the oddity of wielding a St. Paladin build, a crazy necromancer, or a Wabajack wandering around wielding your confused staff.
You can actually jump into a story that revolves around the characters and change the rules based on their beliefs. This is really a role-playing option and honestly, this will help you add some tough touches while bringing your next playthrough to life.

Switch to legendary mode
Brave and no cheating
Now this is a bit obvious option, but it’s surprisingly easy to overlook. The legendary mode is tough! Seriously tough! The enemy’s health becomes quite crazy and suddenly it feels like your attacks do nothing. That’s a real wound!
Most of us enjoy spending most of our time in the mode of skilled professionals, this is a way to challenge ourselves, but an officially licensed ability. The fight takes more time and you need to make sure you maximize everything you’re doing. Use potions, spells, weaknesses from enchantments, and also monitor how quickly you level up.
Plus, you need to be aware of its cheeky repair exploits and the invisible breasts of Dawnstar’s classic underground. You are a legendary player, you don’t need to cheat to win…correctly?

Apply some mods
How far does this Rabbitur go?
This is here. Once you have downloaded the mod loader of your choice, you can decide how difficult it is.
MODs are endlessly customizable, but can be a bit overwhelming. It is recommended to choose a good 4-5 mod during the start to change the bits and pieces of the game. and No, it doesn’t mean Thomas The Tank Engine Dragon mod.
It can be something that changes and improves the AI of an NPC, or mods that add scary bosses, or perhaps even literally changes the actual combat of the game. This forces you to learn the rules from scratch while reducing the itching of Skyrim. If you delve into the world of MODS, you won’t be able to go back!

The evil overlord
Thunder crashes and clouds gather
Everything will kneel before you and cower, as you and you are the true lords of crime. In this playthrough, you will first become the leader of the Thieving Guild and the Dark Brotherhood.
But then everything changes. Instead of maintaining a profile, Your job is to win the largest possible prize for Skyrim. Kill, steal, destroy your path across the land, and stand nothing.
Is this easy? No, of course not. You will be the most wanted person in the land, but that should give you more reasons. Bonus points if you do this when you’re a vampire. Common folks hate vampires and simply transform in front of people and earn more prizes. It will torment them and bathe the world on an eternal night.

Don’t level up!
level? Who do you need?
There are a lot of games people have opposed, and create challenge runs to truly test your temperament. The soul level 1 run is a great example of that, and is actually a more tricky thing in Skyrim.
I’ve also thought about playing Skyrim as a level 1 character. me too. But of course, if you have enough skill and patience, that’s possible.
This certainly isn’t a challenge for the faint of heart. This not only means that you cannot use regular weapons or magic, but also risk leveling up your stats by causing damage, it is forbidden from other creeping and fascinating activities.
However, you can use your fist and staff as it doesn’t give you XP! Or, if you want a huge buff, you can become a werewolf or a vampire! Also, these forms do not give you experience. This means you can stay at pure level 1. You’ll want to use as many passive buffs from jewelry and standing stones as possible to help with light-like features. In the end, maybe you’ll conquer the world as just a level 1.

All of this may seem a bit extra, but once you get used to it, it can actually be quite difficult to get back to normal Skyrim! If you’re a fan of roleplay and diving as deep as possible to the media, there’s no better way to enjoy Skyrim. It may make you a little mad, but this challenge will sweetly conquer all this frigid land!
