Play Skyrim

>>717499786 (OP)
the fuck is that slop.
99% of skyrim mods make things worse

>>717499786 (OP)
abolish all mods
the only valid way of playing vidya is the original dev version, vanilla
any mods whatsoever, even bugfixes, alter the work of the devs, and thus invalidate the game as a work of art

>>717499786 (OP)
how come every “turning Skyrim into a modern game” video just makes it a souls clone with even more jank?

Good to see modders moving away from Elden Ring, now we can get some good'n'old kMMOmaxxing.

This doesn't look as good as you think.

>post a shitty mod
>bait these exact responses
fuck you guys are retarded

Still better than base SKyrim

>>717500856
Worked better than I thought it would

>>717501745
Where are you even finding these, or are you making them yourself?

>>717501745
>that depth of field
LOL

>>717501786
Took them from the TES general. Leave it to those anons to unironically mod their games like this

>>717500141
Almost true but you should mod games to improve things you don't like while maintaining the artists vision. I lightly mod Skyrim to look better, change around some perks and increase lethality of combat and that's it.

You mf's probably don't add season to your chicken since it goes against the originals vision

why is every retards idea of modding skyrim just turning it into dark souls + anime

>>717500141
>noooooooooooo stop enjoying Tamriel Rebuilt, don't you know that wasn't Todd's vision in 2002 reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
"No"

>>717502386
Most combat/animation mods are "based" on (or lifted straight from) other games, and Dark Souls has animations for tons of martial weapons.
People even use Cyberpunk 2077's animations for Skyrim and Fallout games.

>>717500856
i always post like i'm outraged by shitty mods to see if anyone replies defending them, but i've actually never even played skyrim since it came out when i was 4, it's some unc shit fr

After 2000 hours i have just accepted vanilla combat and perks for what they are. Dealing with bugs, edgecases and conflicting designs isnt worth it. Dark souls combat looks cool in cherry picked scenes, but it doesn't work well in a lot of dungeons.

Link a modpack with all that animation and QoL shit, that I can simply throw erin race into without hard crashing and then I'll play skyrim again. Tried doing it myself but, going through installations of long dependency chains only for hair physics or something obscure to crash my game either on launch or as soon as I enter combat is not fun. I also couldn't get animation and combat stuff to not look janky/not smooth.
So letting someone else do all the work so I don't get burnt out before even getting to play would be nice.

Neither does vanilla skyrim combat

>>717505826
Think its lorerim so you gotta go via wabbajak

>>717505826

There is a non-zero chance that the modlist will break if you put a new race on top of it.
And most modlists still have a chance to crash anyway because of stupid shit like esl-flagged plugins causing issues if you load a save file during gameplay.

>>717505826
spent a good few days making a list around erin race, realized i play in first person anyways and scrapped it
last thing i did was replace some followers with it which worked but with visual bugs

>>717502021
Exactly, this "Better Maps" mod is a perfect example, it's a straight up 8k upgrade over the original game's map.

How was I supposed to see the note? I picked up the skeleton hand but the note is easily missable.
In third person you would never find it.

I own a 4090, this game is beautiful and I'm having way more fun than OG.
Sorry you were priced out

>immediately projects his money insecurities onto others
Figures

>>717511307
Funny how no one mention anything about money,but the sub triple digit IQ brainlet can't fathom any other reason why people dislike this slop.

>>717501891
It does wonders to hide garbage LOD and grass pop-ins.

Anyone got recommendations for a racism build? In this case playing as a dark elf? What choices would make sense for role playing while still facilitating completion of the game instead of just holocausting NPCs indiscriminately?

>>717499786 (OP)
No matter how hard you try, you will NEVER make Skyrim's combat good. It was, at best, only somewhat satisfying to do executions on NPCs and kill them from far away with arrows and spells. But that was about it.

But the real issue with Skyrim is not the combat, but the NPCs and writing. Complete dogshit. Utterly unacceptable in the RPG genre, where terrible gameplay is universal and you just play for the story and characters.

>>717499786 (OP)
these modders are the "people" who claim that vanilla skyrim's combat sucks

>>717501745
hideous.
everything is a blurry mess

>>717515541
Racism against everyone or mainly against Nords for their hate of Dunmer? If the latter join the Legion and behead Ulfric so your brothers from the Grey Quarter get more rights. Also probably go to Solstheim as early as possible, get all unique weapons/armors/spells from there and use them to fight in Skyrim.

it looks garbage anyway.
funny that so many people shit on morrowind combat but I find it to be the most enjoyable out of all elder scrolls games

>>717499786 (OP)
So what enemy AI mods are you using to make the enemies an actual threat?

Playing mostly vanilla skyrim. I just roam. Started out trying hand to hand but stealth knifer is a lot of fun.

>>717516163
I was actually thinking towards other elves because i assume the elves hate each other but I'll definitely give the round ears whatfor
