QUOTE(Callidus Thorn @ Apr 6 2016, 05:20 AM) 75 mods? When I had Oblivion on my old laptop I only had at most a dozen, you must have rebuilt half the game by now. You have to understand the nature of Skyrim mods. Some of them do really pervasive things like re-texturing the chickens. Oblivion had a lot of composite mods, like Apachii store with large numbers of outfits, Skyrim has typically one outfit per mod. I suspect a lot of Buffy's are wearables.

Well, I'll just have to read and see. And hope it doesn't make me consider buying Skyrim I run around 75 mods for Skyrim. Buffy is all about bow + magic + horse + exploration + dungeon crawling. So our 'needs' are different from what some may seek. For Buffy and I, unmodded Oblvion is a little better than unmodded Skyrim. But I prefer modded Skyrim to Oblivion with or without mods. 75 mods? When I had Oblivion on my old laptop I only had at most a dozen, you must have rebuilt half the game by now. Only 75? That is nothing. I just checked, and I have 178 active .esps. That does not count all the straight texture replacers that don't have .esp files to activate. Nor all the other mods that are not active at the moment because my most recent character was not using them.

QUOTE(Acadian @ Apr 6 2016, 12:43 PM) Good points on Skymods. My count includes all the DLC, unofficial patching and several 'support utilities'.
My Skymod list is shorter than my Oblivion list, but covers many of the same areas.
The critical Skymods (for me) focus on changing the leveling to allow more control and tweaking magic to primarily improve 'hand micromanagement' for mages - especially bow-using mages, and to restore a few spell effects from the older games.
Don't forget Buffy's gorgeous looks, which could never be achieved without some mod magic make-up, lol. The only reason I'll even consider opening Skyrim at all is because SubRosa taught me which mods to use to make Misa pretty; I wouldn't have brought her to the place otherwise, those vanilla characters were F'UGLY !!!!

*clicks Acadian's link* I gotta say, I'm definitely in the nausea camp for that one And I have a question for all you modders: Is there a cut-off point where the game is so heavily modded that it stops being the game? This post has been edited by Callidus Thorn: Apr 6 2016, 08:39 PM

Speaking of gorgeous nature - We are three days into our two weeks of annual Dogwood blooming here in ETN; so out come the Dogwood pictures! First off, the house I bought for my son - we didn't know at the time, but learned 2-3 weeks ago that it is on a Dogwood trail! Getting the house off an internet auction instead of through a realtor - no one told us anything about the house at all, good or bad; so I was very surprised when I came home one day to see the purple "Dogwood Trail" markings in the middle of the road leading to my son's house! We have a white Dogwood in our driveway that is half hidden by a massive ivy covered stately tree of some kind; it looks similar to this one: (ours is a little lopsided too, trying to reach the sun from around the big ivy covered brute, lol). Anyway, I've been going out daily and walking around just around our new neighborhood here to see all the beautiful Dogwoods blooming the last three days - Awesome! The lady across the street has one this color: and another neighbor has this gorgeous color in her yard: A typical Dogwood trail: https://bbwebb.files.wordpress.com/2010/04/...ton-kentuck.jpgI LOVE Dogwood Season! And the Bradford Pears are blooming too, so ETN is looking spectacular right now! This post has been edited by mALX: Apr 6 2016, 08:46 PM
