Replaying Skyrim after a long time. What are some essential mods to slap on? I wouldn't mind a few lewd ones.
>>
>>331180420
It's not THAT bad vanilla
>>
There's really no mod that actually makes this game enjoyable. Believe me, I've tried.
>>
>>331181069
why does everyone gush about Skyrim mods then?
>>
Immersive Weapons and Immersive Armor
>>
>>331181165
basically this, people have been trying to take this crap and make it in to a good RPG from day 1 but even the newest wayfarer mod or whatever they're calling it now can't fix the fact that the core gameplay is just complete shit
>>
Argonian mods

>>331181196
An incredibly modded install of Skyrim will make you think Bethesda did a lazy job on so many fronts
>>
>install hundreds of mods
>buggy, CTDs constantly, slideshow fps

>install the essential mods
>feels too vanilla, still a shit game

Nothing will help. Mods are a joke that have gone on too long.
>>
>>331181069

I like the game, but I honestly can't even imagine playing it vanilla.
>>
>>331181257
I not too sure what you would consider the core gameplay but every time I've tried to get back in to the game I could make it past the combat, mobs, magic system, lycrthropy and cave spelunking. Mods can fix those things, but the main quests, and especially the ones that rail road you through the dragonborn shit is what really turns me away. The other thing is the fact that skyrim itself feels so fucking small, I don' t need more than one or two characters to experience the whole fucking thing.

I just end up going back to playing dworf fort adventure mode.
>>
>>331181862

I don't think a game you can play for a hundred hours and still find new places and quests in it can be called "fucking small".
>>
>>331180420
Besides SkyUI, Legendary patch, and body mods because you want lewds?
That completely depends on what you didn't like about vanilla.
>>
>>331180420
better vampires
>>
>>331182048
I guess it was just the whole rail roading main story quests and how you'd always run into the talking dog, or the the thiefs guild guy asking you to join his secret club. Those mods that let you skip those quests specifically were great but most of the quests just seem to play out like that, so I'd visit a town and have to end up ignoring 50% of the NPC's because I already know where they'd lead me. I just end up looking for caves or ruins I never finished before, which is probably how most of /v/ play the game out on a new run. Those really lengthy dwemer ruins were always fun.
>>
>>331181709
I think it was because I played it originally on the ps3 and fell in love with it then. I definitely agree it's improved tenfold by mods. I think it may just be my nostalgia goggles that made me say that.

90% of faggots these days just mod skyrim to look pretty and don't even try to mod it to have good gameplay or combat.
And no, sticking in one of the three main combat overhauls isn't good enough.

Not to mention most people don't have the patience, foresight or perception to on the fly balance the game, which naturally it needs as you progress.
>>
>>331181430
>An incredibly modded install of Skyrim will make you think Bethesda did a lazy job on so many fronts
So does the vanilla game.
>>
>>331184009
A modded game even more so

All those tiny tidbits really do add up
>>
>>331180420
>tfw logged way too many hours on making characters and playing them until about level 20 at the very most repeatedly
>>
nothing can fix the lack of interacting factions, memorable characters, meaningful choices, or role playing capabilities as a whole

therefore nothing can get you what you want. Sorry anon, i've tried

Here, that's the very basics, there's more but I changed my hard drives and don't have time to fix everything now. No lewd shit, this is how Skyrim is meant to be played, one of the greatest RPG ever made.

If you're retarded, don't use ASIS and WTF, you won't be able to run the patchers. Use mod organizer. You also have to change your .ini files.
>>
>>331184385
You have SO many mods that are outdated/superseded

If that's an old install, fair enough, If not - don't go around recommending that strictly, or atleast advise the viewer to take it with a grain of salt.

Still you're the only one in the thread to really recommend mods so i can't truly criticize your picks.

Opinions here on Perkus Maximus + Frostfall?

Going for immersion with fun combat.
>>
>>331184586
Maybe there are new versions, I don't know, haven't played Skyrim in a year. But I've been modding it since day one, just like every TES since Morrowind, and I posted this to show the OP what are some good mods. People don't realise what can be done in Skyrim, they assume it's just some futa shit and horse cocks. You can turn your game into a better Thief if you're into sneak for exemple.

I didn't say use THESE mods and nothing else, but this gives him an idea of what mods to look for.

Basically tons of armors/weapons, spells that make dragon's dogma look pathetic, new gameplay, 4k-8k textures on everything, new AI, everything is improved.
>>
>>331184821
Perkus Maximus is amazing if you run the patcher properly and don't fuck up, otherwise use Skyrim Redone, it's by the same guy. Frostfall is fun and you can also add hypotermia for even more hardcore.
>>
Interesting NPCs.

Do you HAVE to use multiple ships in this game? I'd rather play as a single ship.

Here is my mod list. It contains all the necessary, immersive, LORE FRIENDLY, graphical, overhaul, etc, mods. No loli mods or anything.

All these Mods are available on the Nexus website. Just search the mods and category you want.
>>
>>331180420
go to tesgeneral com and look through the guides, it has all the basics, after that whenever you think "I wonder if there is a mod that does ..." check the nexus there almost certainly is one

>What are some essential mods to slap on?

just use mod profiles and go crazy with it. make one profile that has all your 8k fotoreel textures and enb for screenshot porn, make one that drastically changes the skills/spells/etc, make one for all your dickgirl rape mods, and so on.

modding is idiot proof nowadays and you essentially just maintain a 'library' of mods and use profiles to pick and choose which ones you wanna turn on. you dont wanna enable like 3 mods that change combat at the same time for obvious reasons.

there are some though that a re 'universal' like the unofficial patches that you want enabled no matter what.
>>
Requiem
Worlds Dawn
Morrowloot Ultimate
Unique Uniques
Archery Gameplay Overhaul

all work together with patches

Fairly specific, but is there a mod that fixes weapon tail clipping for beast races? I've looked around a lot and couldn't find one

Perkus Maximus used to be buggy as shit, dunno what it's like now. After all these years I still use SPERG.

Frostfall got tedious after a while, especially if you just want to go anywhere that rains or snows, but it's a very neat mod.

You can mod it all you want, but in the end you'll just be improving the framework on which all the irredeemably bad content is based.

There is only a point to that if you're looking for a fuck around simulator.

The most fun I had with this game is actually a mod that comes with it.

This, you can install graphic mods, "enchanced" combat mods etc. But none will actually chance the core of the game. The only reason Skyrim is still on my PC is because of porn mods.
>>
any adult mods where the npcs can rape each other? i wanna come across some bandits gang raping some elf scum
>>
>>331180420
Frostfall, Realistic needs and diseades, Real Combat and Alternate start because fuck Bethesda and their bullshit. Hunt, camp, fight.
Also fap to porn of your choice and ignore lewd shit.
>>
>>331185004

Seconding this, some VAs are subpar but it adds so much to the experience.

CBBE mod

>>331181069
Unless you're a mage.

>>331194539
Works for altmer with their mana regen skill. But I'm sure it must be pretty painful otherwise.

>You can mod it all you want, but in the end you'll just be improving the framework on which all the irredeemably bad content is based.

That's very true, and it's also why I find the lack of good quest mods so frustrating. Gameplay improvements don't mean much when I'm still going through the same dungeons/quests I've already done several times over, and that often weren't that interesting the first time I played them.
>>
>>331194625
That doesn't fix the problem of Destruction spells being too weak.
