If you're anything like me, saying 'no' to an undiscovered and un-looted dungeon simply isn't an option - in fact, I've scrubbed that negative word from my vocabulary and can now only agree to crawl into every deep cavern that an RPG throws my way.
The compulsive itch to platinum every game is the same urge that keeps me awake at night, wondering about the conundrum of whether The Witcher is better off with Ciri as an empress or not, or wanting to know which distant fantasy realm I can dive helm-first into next.
So when the opportunity comes knocking to discover two new locations in the dearly beloved Skyrim, you best believe that I'm dusting off my Thu'um translation books and ebony armour.
That's exactly the case with the new, free Skyrim quest expansion that opens two new locations to explore while having your morality tested by a narrative that speaks to you, the gamer, rather than just Dragonborn.
The best part of Skyrim is spent beneath the ground (until that Blackreach shine wears thin), with the best loot and combat opponents found under the surface.

Thanks to Nexus Mods, those tunnelling adventures never end, and now this latest free quest has offered up a selection of clever caves to clear.
'All of Those Undead Creatures' is a new narrative quest that takes you on a mission to fight against two types of undead foes: vampires and skeletons.
"In this mod, you will encounter a mysterious, otherworldly figure - something closer to a 'demon' than a man. He does not speak only to your character… and at times, it may feel like he is speaking directly to you," the description reads.

While somewhat short, lasting around an hour, the mod is rich with difficult enemies (especially those pesky vampires that make playing on Legendary almost impossible), and will take you from Dawnstar to Falkreath.
It also comes with a 'humorous, flavour-focused' final reward that will make your time worthwhile - after all, if you're this deep in Skyrim's post-credits gameplay, you won't need much in the way of armour or weapons.
The Skyrim mod universe continues to throw entertaining missions our way, which is one of the reasons why other RPG creators, such as The Lord of the Rings', claim that it's an unfinished title that was lucky it found such a devoted community.
Yet, there's a beauty to it, and even if dungeon-crawling isn't your go-to, maybe this thief-heavy expansion might be more your pace.
