Most perks were just some unseen stat changes, something you wouldn’t care much about, and they were just so basic. But within the Skyrim perk system lay its greatest weakness. Skyrim’s perks idea was a nice touch, being able to see your skill progression within the stars, and the different enhancements you could unlock by working on your preferred build, also known as the stealth archer. In no particular order, please see them below. A few required other mods to be installed first, many patches for compatibility, and a lot of manual work, but overall, they made Skyrim a more interesting place to visit. They are not necessarily the BEST mods, or my favourite, rather they are a selection of mods that add either a ton of content, quality of life changes or something unique. However, I have decided on a few mods I believe everyone would get a kick out of. I could be here for days showcasing mods I believe will make the game bigger, better, and more enjoyable, and to try and choose a few from my list was almost impossible to manage. I’m someone that goes mod shopping before even starting my game, always hunting for something new, something I don’t even need, and I’m not sure that I even want, just for the sake of having more shit to play around with.Īfter finally learning how to use so many different modding tools, instead of just winging it with a simple patch, I’ve now managed to give myself an almost unrecognisable game from vanilla Skyrim. Yes, please.I spent about 3 days of down time reorganising my mod load order, which includes hours of tutorial videos, messages from online friends and a lot of trial and error, to make my 300+ mods play nicely together. New locations, spells, armor, and an epic quest to take down the Dark Brotherhood. After ending the College of Winterhold quest line, you’ll be contacted by the Psijic order and sent on a difficult chain of quests in order to prove yourself worthy of becoming a member. If you were intrigued by the Psijic order of the vanilla Skyrim and wanted to know more about them, this mod is for you. The spooky atmosphere is second to none and it can get really difficult as you approach the quest’s end.
A cursed place that the citizens report hearing strange noises out of. Well, this mod aims to fix that by adding a quest that will take you deep into the Silverfall mine. Skyrim is a lot of things but scary isn’t one of them. If you don’t own the game yet, you can buy it on Amazon for PlayStation 4, or Xbox One, or PC.
