About this mod Machine translation
Name: Skyrim Unbound (Alternate Start)
Author: chinagreenelvis
Chinese: Achifeixiang
Version: 5.15
Original address:
As soon as it was released, it became the most popular opening MOD on the N network. ,Compared with the old Alternate Start, its advantages are fast and highly customizable.
Skyrim Unbound is an amazing mod with a pretty wide range of options. It allows players to skip the beginning of the plot, choose whether to be a dragonborn, and have complete control over the dragon's refresh. The first few stages of the main storyline have been skipped, and you no longer need to obtain dragon stones, or kill the ben dragon Mirmenir. If you wish to become a Dragonborn and complete the main storyline, all you need to do is absorb the dragon soul of a dragon and then go see Greybeard.
You can buy Breeze Pavilion from the beginning, but it costs twice as much as the original version. When you buy Breeze Pavilion, you become the armed guard of Whiterun, and Lydia will become your steward.
It is recommended to open a new file to use, but the author said that if you have not learned Dragon Roar or absorbed Dragon Soul in the previous save, you can also use it directly.
Other features:
Choose your starting weapons, equipment, spells, classes, and zodiac signs.
Choose your starting location, any garrison, city, town, inn and more.
Adjusted the spawning of dragons, random dragons, dragon soul absorption and dragon roar.
Non-dragonborn characters can be forced to avoid entering the main line.
As soon as you start the game, you can complete the Civil War mission to the end.
Becoming a Dragonborn no longer requires completing the Civil War quest.
Non-dragonborn characters can use the option to become dragonborn at any time in the game.
Removed any NPC dialogue about Dragonborn and Holyland Town unless the main story begins.
You can start the game as a vampire or a werewolf. (MCM-only)
Choose a time to start the game. (MCM-only)
You can choose your side between the Empire, Stormcloaks, Bandits, and Forsworn.

use:
After the opening credits, you will be prompted to open MCM.
After adjusting your options in MCM, there will be a Start Your Adventure button on the first page. Click it and you will jump to the face pinching screen.
Personally felt advantages:
Things similar to Live Another Life (starting customization, easy to adjust mod configuration) will not be repeated.
Just skip the process of getting the Dragon Stone and go straight up the mountain to find Gray Beard.
Can determine the dragon's refresh mechanism.
You can learn Dragon Roar from the beginning.
Unless you actively enter the main storyline, you will no longer hear dialogue related to Holy Land Town and Dragonborn from NPCs. In other words, you can be an ordinary person.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
