with mods this time!

Okay, fair disclosure, I used some mods my first playthrough but nothing like, crazy: RaceMenu, SkyUI, some lore-friendly armours.
I got a few (27, lol) hours in with my Two Handed Nord lady, but none of it really clicked. I just kinda played cause why not, my friends were VCing and it was just something to do.
The reason I wanna play again is because the game theoretically should have everything I like and I'm kind of annoyed. Snow aesthetic, which is huge for me, dragons, references to Beowulf...etc.
I was hoping there would be some mods that might change that!

I am also taking tips to make, hopefully, the next 27 hours more fun than the last.
Also build/character suggestions. Just no stealth archer, please. I'm probably gonna go two-handed with restoration again, but if you think there's something better go ahead.

I also have Oblivion, which I played for maybe two hours. >_>

If it's not for you, it's not for you. If circular dungeons with 1 boss and 1 major loot chest don't really trip your trigger, you won't miss much from Skyrim.

No amount of mods will make Skyrim fun, unless you're really into going through the same three dungeons with slightly different layouts for 100+ hours.

You should play AC Valhalla instead. So far I have a level 3 settlement with a wolf and a fox running around and I just got a skill that lets me dual wield two handed weapons and it looks so stupid lmao

I just got my mod list finally completed with around 400~ mods.

Its honestly a thing of beauty. Put so much work and manual edits into it. Loving it now though, and havent noticed any big bugs.

Try Enderal, it's a full game replacement lol

The story is derivative to the extreme, but it's a fun playthrough if you're like 'Skyrim was kind of okay, but I want something different'. Music's great too.

I like how every insanely popular game hits that point where it becomes cool to hate. You'd think people who liked it would be the ones leftover. Who is so petty that they still go into topics to hate a 10 year old game lol. You been doin that for 10 years? If it's still being talked about 10 years later, how do you not realize you lost that one? I'm not even the biggest fan. I only lasted 80 hours on the regular games, then only got to 160 on VR because of the limited library. There's not many PSVR games you don't beat in the first couple hours.

That's cool. But you had 10 years to tell people that already >_>. It makes more sense to talk about it 10 years later if you actually like it, because you might have a new perspective with age or found something new you missed. Watch me end up being caught doing this same shit in a couple days tho >_>. Trying to think of something I still hate on....Final Fantasy VIII, there it is. I do retry that every couple years tho. I really want to like it. I just can't. Even got the HD version recently. So now I own a game I hate twice.

Is it really that hard to understand tho? It's still on a scale that barely any other game has ever done. And as much as people want to say it's the same caves again and again. It's really not. It's just unreasonable to expect each dungeon to have a completely different aesthetic. And in my 150 hour file, none of them were copy and pasted. I feel like you really have to reach to be able to not appreciate aspects of the game. It's nowhere near perfect, but it's not really been replicated in the 10 year since. Many have tried, but they never quite got it. There's a reason people keep going back to it. And before anyone gets into it, I don't use mods, so I'm not talking about a "mods saved it" aspect either.

Not necessarily hard to understand, just that I personally found it extremely boring and would never play it.

So did San Andreas. Do you hate that too?

People say that like it's inherently a bad thing. Not even that it's true. But there's plenty of games that are way more shallow and a ton of fun. It actually kind of has to suck to be so uptight you can't enjoy something just because its accessible to more people >_>. Not everything has to be Diablo 2 or XCOM or whatever, I dunno, I don't really think on those terms cause it's anti-fun.
