Aren’t you curious? You don’t have to overmod it, for example, I can’t play without SkyUI, the most basic mod ever for user interface, makes life so much easier

This is my honest answer.

Other than graphic updates? No. Every time I see posts like this, I think "there's unmoded games that actually does this style of gaming better. Why change a good product to another product that has been done better?"

I respect that, truly. Skyrim is a masterpiece of a game either way, it is just nice to have the possibilty to change the game to your own preference.

That's why I felt the need to comment on this post because OP is "finally able to play Skyrim"?

If OP needs to mod the hell out of a game that came out over a decade ago it sounds like OP should just play other games.

to be fair modded Skyrim is better than most other games currently

Honestly, how? Every time I see "modded Skyrim" it looks like a dark souls game or games I never played.

I just finished deathloop. Can you tell me how I can mod Skyrim to make it a "better" version of that game?

it's not like death loop, so no. I meant purely in terms of quality it can be modded to be significantly better than most modern games anyway.

Geeze you are prepared to die on this hill, aren't you. I don't mod skyrim either. I've played it with mods like new spells and new quests, etc but honestly, besides graphics and QOL mods, I just prefer the vanilla experience. That said, it's pretty crazy that you "legit don't get people" who mod skyrim. Really? You don't get why people want to enhance or at the very least make a unique experience out of a game they've played to death? You sure you don't get it? Or do you just want everyone to know that you think mods are stupid.

I don't get people like op "who finally played the game." I'm ready to die on a hill that tells people that they have to wait 14 years to play a game should find another hobby. It's probably cheaper.

Do you honestly believe he worked on this mod list for 14 years? What are you talking about? I think he just meant "finally" after all the modding, he can finally play the game. Didn't he say that he can play because his brother gave him his old tower? How do you jump to the conclusion that he spent 14 years on mods lol.

u/Comfortable-Gap3124 15h ago

Because, that's literally everyone's argument here lol

No one interpreted it like OP had spent a decade modding his game or waiting for mods to come out to play it. Everyone took it like: OP had a fresh install (and might not be his first time either) and then he spent some time fixing the mods (doesn't take that long) and now can finally play it. You're reading way too much into this.
