Skyrim NPCs Just Got an Upgrade – Goodbye Awkward Door Opens!

What’s Wrong with Skyrim NPCs and Doors?

So, here’s the deal: have you ever cringed a little when you see the folks in Skyrim fumbling with doors like they don’t know whether they’re coming or going? It’s like watching your uncle try to figure out the TV remote during Thanksgiving dinner – awkward and a little painful! NPCs in Skyrim have this silly quirk where they can’t open doors fully when crossing load screens. Instead, they just crack them open a bit, giving you a sneak peek into a shadowy abyss before they poof into thin air like some overdramatic magician!

For the longest time, I didn’t even notice how goofy this looked until a brilliant modder decided to shine a light on it. Seriously, watching these NPCs fade out makes them look like they’ve been caught mid-magic trick, glowing like they just got zapped by a lightning bolt!

A Mod to the Rescue!

Enter the No Load Door NPC Fade mod. This genius addition is like giving Skyrim NPCs a makeover before their big exit! Instead of fading away like sad pizza left out too long, they can now depart in style, without the awkward disappearing act. Just a tiny one-kilobyte download, and boom – it’s like giving your gameplay a serious facelift! Trust me, once you try it, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it.

What’s even cooler is that this mod joins the ranks of other whimsical mods by the elusive wSkeever (seriously, what does the “w” stand for?). From handy tools to improve your lockpicking game to modding quests that let you take over a shop from some of the most annoying merchants in Skyrim, this guy has crafted a hilarious buffet of content. And who wouldn’t want their Skyrim travels to include some weeping angels from Doctor Who? Spooky times ahead, folks!

So, if you’ve ever felt the cringe of watching NPCs play peek-a-boo with the doors, grab that mod and let your adventures be less about awkward animations and more about epic quests. Happy modding, Dragonborns!
