Pardon me, I’ll be back later. I’m off to play a bit on my most recent survival playthrough of Skyrim… I love having to ride my horse places that don’t have carriage access which is 95% of them. You could do five playthrus using fast travel and you wouldn’t know the world a quarter as well as after one survival playthrough.
Playing survival but being willing to use console commands just a tiny bit to make it less painful, that’s the sweet spot for me. I give myself some coins. I’m the dragonborn, it isn’t a stretch to think I might have also started out life with a little money. I mean my parents clearly had a heroic bloodline, they should have been successful. And when I’m building homesteads I console command most of the supplies. It’s rich privilege. It’s real. But I can still freeze to death or starve like anyone else navigating Skyrim.

I hated the survival mode. It didn’t really add much to anything, imo, and could have been built better.
I played morrowind without understanding how fast travel worked in that game for a long while. I get the immersion thing.
