Changes:

Improvements to Vanilla version:



*The Thalmor have more of a presence, with Elenwen confronting Tullius.

*The Captain doesn't say 'sentries, what do you see' when the dragon is literally in front of her. This and the other 'dragon spotting' dialogue plays earlier, so it's more realistic.

*Extends and restores the scene with Haming and Torolf - it's now a more emotional affair instead of a rushed side plot, with more dialogue from Hadvar, Haming, Torolf and Gunnar.

*The ability to escape with Ulfric, FULLY VOICED! Ulfric and Ralof will talk to each other and to you.

*More dialogue for the dragon attack, citizens now scream and panic realistically

*Elenwen & Tullius argument fixed - more dialogue.

Ralof now comments on Elenwen & Tullius' argument

*Ulfric and Ralof have a conversation in the tower by the Helgen Homestead. Ulfric is happy to see Ralof alive and Ralof explains you're a prisoner the Empire tried to kill.



3.1 Updates:

Restored 1 line for Ulfric. Fixed the Tullius & Elenwen argument, 'General Tullius stop!' line finally plays and 'thalmor bitch' plays later. Fixed volume of Hadvar's lines.

Ever thought Skyrim's opening scenes were boring and felt like they were missing something? Well, today's your lucky day, because this mod rejuvenates and overhauls 'Unbound' by restoring LOTS of cut, unused dialogue, including a more invigorating carriage scene, escaping the Keep with Ulfric and Elenwen confronting General Tullius.The changes affect Hadvar, Ralof, Lokir, General Tullius, Ulfric, Elenwen, the Imperial Captain, Gunnar, Haming, Torolf, the Torturer and Torturer's Assistant, Vilod and Ingrid.While some people simply have more or different dialogue, Hadvar and Lokir actually have COMPLETELY DIFFERENT VOICES!!!Of course, this isn't as much of a big deal for Lokir as it is Hadvar, as Hadvar will have this alternate voice throughout the ENTIRE GAME!!!*Ralof comments on the Stormcloak soldier that Alduin kills in the tower and calls him by his previously unknown name, 'Vilfrid'.Introducing a new voice actor for Hadvar, Patrick Mahoney, who does a fantastic job of creating a believable Nordic accent and making the character sympathetic to the player again, something Jason Marsden's Hadvar was incapable of. Patrick outperforms both Jason Marsden AND Jonas Fisch as Hadvar, with several tweaks and improvements to dialogue Patrick did himself, he's really made the character his own. Of course, we've also been able to remove the generic dialogue substitutes for Jason's Hadvar and bring back the race specific dialogue and Guardian Stones dialogue! He has voiced ALL Hadvar's dialogue and I strongly suggest you keep this mod active to hear the new voice throughout the entire game!We hope you'll enjoy his voice in your game! :)- ONLY works if you follow these steps:https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/4985120-opening-scene-overhaul-se/page-41#entry65042736- Compatible, as long as you follow that mod's instructions: "it is imperative that you leave Helgen Reborn UNCHECKED until you exit the cave with Hadvar/Ralof."- Compatible as of Version 2.3!- Should work without any problems, as this mod doesn't change the Civil war- Causes executioner cutscene to break, enable after escaping HelgenBethesda - For cutting the content so I could make the mod :PPatrick Mahoney (NEVERMOREPJM) - For doing a wonderful job voicing Hadvar!
