Skyrim - Music & Ambience - Rainy Night [10 Hours]

You wake up feeling well rested

It’s 2011. You wake up. It’s a Saturday. You turn your screen back on and there it is, the Skyrim pause menu, just as you left it the night before. You take a moment to remember what you were doing, and then you continue your adventure. Life is good.

This game literally saved me from giving up on life and committing suicide a few years ago. I had no interest or love for my physical reality but escaping into the world of tamriel for 10 hours a day kept me inside and safe from doing something stupid. Hoarding and decorating my Lakeview manor gave me something to be proud of, even though I had nothing going for me outside of the monitor. After getting the help I needed a few years later I had another bash at Skyrim, this time heavily modded for an incredibly immersive experience. It just gets better with every quest I revisit and camping spot I discover. Skyrim was a keystone in my recovery and while I haven't played it for a month now as I'm working through AC:Valhalla, I regularly meditate and fall asleep to this emotional, spiritually invigorating music. Thank you Skyrim and the community, I love you all.

10years later and we still find peace in Skyrim

I just want to jump back into this world. To get lost again. Like I did when I was younger.

Roses are red, Skyrim is fun You're carrying too much to be able to run

"May your roads lead you to warm sands."

My son and I were estranged for a few years after the divorce from his mother. When we re-connected, we told each other about a great game we'd discovered... Skyrim. Our love of the game helped us re-build our relationship, not just as father and son, or Dadda and Mip, but as friends. He has passed since, but I fancy I can feel him tapping my shoulders every now and then to warn me of an enemy I'm not aware of. Playing helps me endure my grief and depression. I'm home.

imagine falling asleep to this and you suddenly wake up in a wagon.

for those who are falling asleep to this music, goodnight homie. mwah. may the gods always bless you with a goodnight kiss.

Who else in 2024 right now?

Neatly 12yrs on and people are still finding comfort in skyrim and it's music

“Video games cause violence” Us good ole Skyrim gamers comin back every night to listen to this:

Halfway through the video you should’ve put “There you are! I’ve been looking for you. Got a letter I’m supposed to deliver... looks like that’s it... got to go!”

Im playing skyrim for the first time ever, and I found myself wishing I could live in the quiet moments forever, nothing but a gorgeous view and thundering storms

12 years later and I still haven’t finished it. I was way too much of an ‘exploration’ player and it just got shifted to one side over time but it’s one of those games you never forget due to its sheer beauty - this music track included.

listening to this makes me homesick from a place that doesn't exist!

Newsflash: local man actually cures depression with rain sounds and video games music.

May the Nine bless you for not having ads.

One of the first things my now husband and I did when we met (during college summer) was take turns playing through Skyrim - one day each, alternating. We have been listening to this channel, this video in particular for years. Now, we have a 2yr old who falls asleep to this every night with us. You have no idea the impact you've had on my life, my husbands life, and now our sons life. Thank you.
