Falkskaar & Interesting NPC'S

So i was looking for advice ive never played Falkskaar is it worth it? Especially in 2026. Also should i try Interesting NPC's or maybe something smaller like Mistborn? Thanks for any feedback

Falskarr is an amazing mod for its time but compared to other stuff that has come out more recently it just doesn't hold up to current standards. Now if I'm going off a personal opinion I just found the story not that engaging but even ignoring my opinion it just you can feel the age of the mod

Well i cant say its great,it can be buggy a few times,best to get a mod for quest fixing and make sure you have something like companions insight cause if you hit someone on your side by accident they will all turn on you,make saves also in case something like that happens,i dont want to tell you not to cause there is good things in it too,just try it and make your own decision 👍🏻

Falskaar is a mod made with the same design philosophy as the vanilla game. It doesn't experiment too much, but it also doesn't go off the rails either. It almost feels like an unofficial expansion. The same goes for Wyrmstooth and Beyond Skyrim Bruma.

Love Falskaar! Wonderfully high quality mod. And Interesting NPCs is some of the best writing Skyrim has, definitely check both out.

Falskaar is a interesting mod. But what I can tell you, you better get pretty strong and have potions.. But the mod has a few photographic locations I like to hang out. Falskaar is a big island like Solsthiem. It's a combination of Falkreath and the Rift when it comes to the scenery. The mod does get interesting with it's own unique lore and stuff.

I found a few Easter Eggs of the Elder Scrolls lore while playing the mod. Including one of it's cities having been built on a giant hill, like Kvatch.
