About this video

First released in 2018, Immersive World Encounters is back! I've been fighting uphill battles in the past 2 years to bring about this exciting new update featuring 20+ additional World Encounters and World Interactions as well as numerous side quests and memorable new characters.
   
The Announcement Trailer above shows you a glimpse of all the exciting new features. It's also meant to be a tribute to all of 28 voice artists whom I've had pleasure of working with in the past 3 years. It showcases some of the wonderful voice works from these voice artists.
 

Here's a Quick Rundown of New Features:

• 11 voice artists have been newly recruited to voice well over 1,000 lines of new dialogue. This allowed me to add more than 20 new random events as well as numerous side quests, unique NPCs and even custom-voiced Followers (more on that later).
• Have you ever wanted to be a sellsword? Tired of hiring mercenaries andwanna try being one instead? Well then the wait is over, for from now on whenever you visit the taverns of Skyrim, you'll have a chance to encounter a traveler NPC in need of a traveling companion, and willing to pay you for your sword-arm! The price for your service varies on multitudes of factors such as your overall level, speechcraft skills and more.
• The Raid of Five Cities is a new World Interaction event where a group of attackers might tryto attack one of the major cities. This is done in a way that doesn't force you into combat, however. The Guard Commander will ask you if you wish to join in their defense, but if you're just not feeling it you can tell him "nah" and the raiders will be taken care of off-screen.
• I ended up building a standalone follower framework so I can implement the said mercenary quest as well as 2 unique followers with 300 lines of dialogue. There's also one nameless Husky follower and you can absolutely give him a proper name!
• Brand new bards for you to encounter! Our team of voice actors have displayed their excellent singing abilities and these new bards are honestly my favorite addition in Final Version. In  collaboration with Mattness, the author of The Elder Songs - Fanmade Music Expansion, lute music tracks have been created for famous bard songs of Skyrim.
• Many bug fixes and improvements, namely the "Angry Husband" Interaction has been reworked so that it won't be triggered so repeatedly.
  

   
I've made several mods in the past 6 years, and I've spent more time working on Immersive World Encounters than any of my other projects. I genuinely believe I was able to make a really really special mod that can be a staple of your trip across Skyrim.  
Final Version is planned to be released in April, 2021. If you have thoughts on the new trailer feel free to share!
