📋 About This Mod
It\'s that simple. This savegame takes you a few seconds before you are prompted to choose your race and name. Instructions 1. Find your savegame folder. It\'s usually in a directory similar to \"... My Games\\Skyrim\\Saves\" 2. Extract the downloaded file inside the \'Saves\' folder. 3. It\'s wise to move/delete any other file that was in the folder to start a new save count.
This save game file for Skyrim places you at the character creation screen, skipping the lengthy intro sequence. It's a simple utility for players who want to start a new game without replaying the cart ride and Helgen escape. With 1,849 endorsements and 61,623 downloads, it's a popular convenience mod.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust (1,849 endorsements, 61k downloads) — this is the go-to for skipping the intro
- Saves you 10+ minutes every new playthrough — essential for altaholics
- No mod manager needed, just drop the file in your saves folder
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2012 — may not work with the latest Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition updates
- Only works for the original Skyrim (Legendary Edition) — not for SSE or AE
- You'll still need to create your character and go through the Helgen escape after the save loads, so it's not a full skip
For Skyrim players who've seen the intro a hundred times and just want to get to character creation. Perfect for roleplayers who make new characters often. Skip if you're on Special Edition or Anniversary Edition — this won't work for you.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the .ess file in Documents/My Games/Skyrim/Saves (or Documents/My Games/Skyrim Special Edition/Saves if you're on SSE, but note this mod is for original Skyrim only).
- Load the save from the main menu, then immediately create your character — the game will start you at the character creation screen.
- If you're using mods that alter the intro or require a specific start, this save might conflict — test with a clean load order first.
