Someone in video game thread asked about Skyrim mods so I'll post a few of my faves
Armours and clothing
>Anything by OperatorCactus / skyrimfuckeryDownloads in the sidebar, pics in the blog
https://skyrimfuckery.tumblr.com/>Book of UUNP with non-skimpy patchOriginal mod is full of coomerism, but it also has quite a few nice more covered ones for females (the mod is not fitted for vanilla body, you need UNP body to use it, or CBBE/other and a patch)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/7505https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/23719>Sleek Wolf ArmourMakes the wolf armour the companions wear a bit sleeker & removes boob plates from females
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/44812>aMidianBorn Book of SilenceTextures, there might be better more modern ones but I love the black elven armour, won't play without it

>wtf
>turns out in the base game her stats are gimped because lol bethesda code, but the unofficial patch I used fixes it and gives her 800 times more health and stats
Ended up killing her by gobbling down 30 health potions and jumping around to dodge her fireballs, took about 15 minutes but it was the best fight I've had in all of TES

Textures
I would first download a huge texture overhaul (like Pfushers, Noble or Skyland, comparison in vidrel by some nice lady), then start pathing in models and textures you like better, there are a lot of creators texturing every single minuscule thing in game with the power of pure autism, bless them.

>>225376Bloodmoon was the worst one. Barely adds anything in terms of plot unlike Tribunal, the new map is just a murder island where you can't walk 5 meters without being rushed by 10 wolves, 3 smurfs on boars and spriggans which you have to each murder thrice to make them extra obnoxious. Werewolf powers you get are useless, and getting lycanthropy is useless because you can get a ring that gives exactly the same effects without downsides
Saddest thing is that Bloodmoon was the point where Bethesda completely departed from the Morrowind atmosphere and started doing regular fantasy games with nothing mystic or strange in it. There was a single creature that wasn't original in Vvardenfell, the rat. From Bloodmoon on you now get wolves, bears, boars, caves full of zombies/draugrs, and plots where no one is creepily seductive and nobody betrays you

Very demented theory but I think Barenziah was inspired by Theodora I (T1) and Theodora the Armenian (T2), two byzantine empresses
>before becoming queen/empress Barenziah and T1 had a disreputable profession (thief/prostitute)
>they got married to an emperor (Justinian)/emperor's best general (Symmachus) who started life as a peasant
"Symmachus" ends like "Belisarius", who was emperor Justinian's best general and as famous as the emperor. IRL T1 and Belisarius didn't date, the writer just merged Belisarius and Justinian to make a better story
>their husbands had to face an important riot, had the possibility to flee, but ultimately decided to stay for the good of the country
The difference being Symmachus died in the riot, Justinian didn't
>they both had a slanderous biography made by a scribe who worked for them (The secret history/The real Barenziah), balanced by an official proper biography
>the names of the scribes sound the same (Procopius/Plitinius)
>just like T2, her husband died early and she ruled alone waiting for her child (Michael III/Helseth) to be of age, said child proving to be quite the plotter and fond of using assassins to murder those who wouldn't let him rule as he pleased (Theoktistos/the Nerevarine)
>just like T2, she named her daughter after her husband's mother

>>225831super late since i’ve not as terminally online anymore, but ata
>>225790 and I wanted to mention that I just finished modding a new SE session after days of work! I’ll hope I can post my faves soon, I just want to make sure to not recommend shit mods since I’m trying out a lot of new stuff. Anyway I was looking for that one blog (eskyrim) where shitloads of armor and clothing mods were compiled just to see that the guy who ran it made it locked behind a paywall. I was searching for alternatives and found the modbooru, which is nice but 90% coomer stuff and I’m pretty sure it’s missing some really good ones. does anyone know of other good armor mod blogs? I’m pretty out of touch
>>231263>>242181I used to play it a lot for a while. I got so much stuff that was hard to grind for but somehow I stopped playing idk. It’s true it’s a super generic mmo but I liked the huge amount of lore and stupid side quests as well as the fact that you can go nuts with styling and roleplaying ( if you ignore the main questline. ) I do not like that everyone is the literal chosen one, wish you could be just some generic peasant or something but well. almost everyone runs around there looking like some overstyled donutsteel character lol while I love to make themed characters who fit neat into the world. I also loved how the ingame economy had a weird life of its own. I actually considered playing it again this winter! It’s also a very pretty game if you use LUT and reshade smaa because the default antialiasing is abysmal, or at least it used to be.

http://wiki.tesnexus.com/index.php/Creating_an_armour_for_Skyrim._Part_1In another topic, would you nonas indulge in my autism and share your favorite armor mod for Skyrim?
No. 254129
>>252029That pic is diabolical, my thoughts exactly on these updates. I recently watched a documentary made by the former team that worked on Skyrim, I thought it was insightful because even though it's such a buggy game they really seemed to pour their love into it and I'm convinced whoever is told to update the game now are just a skeleton crew to keep reminding us Skyim exists and they don't care about it at all. The consequence being that they introduce even more bugs because they didn't create it (see: one of the updates corrupted two textures somehow that makes you crash upon viewing them, meaning potentially any file in the game is botched and we just haven't discovered it yet).
About the armor, I don't know anything about making 3D assets but the part where you set up the objects for them in the CK is relatively easy. You can just copy and paste an existing armor to be your template and reroute the meshes to be your custom ones. It can also be done in xEdit if you don't want to touch the CK.

I adore Halloween, so about a year ago, I made a special Halloween-themed character. I customized the fuck out of her, she's a witch in the "Wizard of Oz" sense. I'd downloaded some Halloween decor mods, a custom spell that lets you throw exploding, laughing pumpkins, a shack out in the swamps that sells Halloween goodies and armor, and my vampire boyfriendo follower. Our gimmick was we could only roam around during nighttime. I forgot to play her this year, but there's still time left before the year is out. Picrel is boyfriendo in the swamp shack.

>>259960Aww, thank you. Honestly, the best way to come up with good roleplaying is download a silly mod and see where it takes you. Picrel is one of my other characters. I downloaded a flower crown mod and everything just spiraled out of control.

I got my sister hooked on Skyrim for the first time ever this month and it's so cute to see her get obsessed with it.

>>263703Oh man I remember having sexual fantasies about Martin Septim because of his voice. Sean Bean has one of the sexiest voices ever.
I used to love Oblivion but after playing so much Skyrim I have trouble going back to it. Mostly because it's harder, and because of the ugly people like you said. It definitely has more of an 'rpg' feel if that makes sense, and Skyrim is more of an action game. I really want to play and beat it again someday though.

Not sure which thread to use.
I recently started playing Morrowind. I have about 10 hours on record. It's ridiculously hard lol but I'm getting better at it.
I also started replaying Skyrim. I've spent 6000+ hours playing this game already (yes, I know) but most of that was probably in the first 5-6 years the game was released. I recently started playing it on my switch which I kind of hate because of the small screen but the only other way I can play is on my laptop which will only last playing Skryim for about an hour.
I honestly hate how much fun I'm having. I feel like the most basic bitch ever to still have fun playing vanilla skyrim after 6000+ hours of gameplay. That being said for years I tried to play it and and I'd immediately get bored so I don't why the spark was just relit for me recently. I can tell they've added/changed a lot of things over the years, like making the game somewhat harder. I'm definitely leveling up a lot slower than I did the first time I played this game.
Also on all my previous playthroughs I'd play a mage type character and use all my perks for magic skills. I've been trying to rely more on weapons and potions instead of just magic even though it's tempting to just use spells for everything.

>>296401Morrowind is amazing. Have you got horribly lost yet while trying to look for a family tomb for a quest? Or had a vast line of cliff racers attacking you one by one? That's all the bad stuff I can think of. I love Morrowind, I semi-recently started it and have around 75 hours in it. I'm not finished it, but I'm close. What house are you going to join?

>>296411I hate getting stuck just looking for random shit. I dunno why but I never remember my stamina effecting me much, though I barely know how to combat in this game besides spam sword and spam spell. My spell of choice is Righteousness, yeah maybe I should upgrade but then I find I don't have the mana. I want to use fireball more but leveling that is so tedious
No. 307644
>>307579I'd say yes since even if someone skips over any visual and weather enhancement mods, there's several bug fix and quality of life mods that make the game better to play. And there's several dialogue/follower/quest mods that add a touch of polish or expand variety to what's already there.
iirc if you go the wabbajack route to more quickly mod the game, a modpack like nordic souls is one example of vanilla plus style that's more strict about trying to stay true to the base of the game with added variety and enhancements. Lostlegacy is a mod list example of allowing power levels and scaling to get wackier and is aimed to be more exaggerated high fantasy. It also includes legacy of the dragonborn for people who want an expansion and display for the collecting artifacts part of the game. Someone can also look at these lists and pick out only the essentials of what they personally want for a lighter mod list and download the mods themselves from nexus

I hate what scrotes do to serana. She’s my favorite Skyrim character, but her male fans are so damn creepy. Half the time, they’re not even attracted to Skyrim Serana, but the modded out version of her with a smooth face, fat tits, and some fuckass overrendered hairstyle, I’m sick of it, this is not my Serana!!! They don’t even like Serana as a character, they just like her clothes and the fact she’s one of the few followers with a personality. The fact she’s one of the only followers that you can’t marry, and who actively rejects the player, but when moids install the “marry serana” or any other sex mod, it feels so disrespectful, considering what she went through to become a daughter of coldharbour. Fuck moids, the only appropriate spouse for serana would be a woman with low libido, so they don’t make her uncomfortable with advancements

>til Barenziah was 16 years old when Tiber Septim raped and impregnated her
This makes me hate him even more. I already didn’t like him because he had an affair and forced her to abort their baby, but she was SIXTEEN!!!! Dunmer age way differently too, so in her race, her sexual maturity was probably the equivalent of a human 12 year old, it was written that she was the youngest dunmer to get pregnant. I’m on the Thalmors side now, I’d also outlaw the worship of a rapist.

>>357072I'm assuming you mean totally new unique followers that have a decent amount of dialogue? The main ones I've used so far are Kaidan 2 paired with a face replacement (but I don't remember which one I picked)
>Rebuilt and expanded, this romantic follower features over 1200 lines of dialogue, custom home, and mini quests. and Xelzaz (scholarly argonian mage)
>Xelzaz is a Custom Fully Voiced Argonian Lawman of House Telvanni with ~7250 lines. He is on his way to Rivenspire in High Rock, having traveled all the way from Port Telvannis in Morrowind. Xelzaz has just arrived in Skyrim and is looking for a traveling companion. In return he will keep you company, cook you warm meals and brew powerful potions.and a bit of Nebarra (sarcastic high elf) because he has dialogue with Xelzaz
>Nebarra is a Lore-Friendly, Story-Aware, Custom-Voiced Follower with over 1,600+ lines of dialogue and his own Personal Quest. An Aldmeri Veteran of the Great War, Nebarra has traveled to Skyrim and become a Mercenary-for-Hire. Surly, opinionated, and morally gray, Nebarra lends biting humor, battle stories, and his sword-arm to your adventures. I don't know if my opinion can be trusted on quality of mod voice acting since honestly I don't really weigh that kind of thing much when it comes to Skyrim, but these 3 were decent enough imo, Xelzaz in particular.

>>390169samefag but bountiful blessings on the one who bishified Cicero, this is amazing. I can't believe there's more of us. I thought I was the only one who liked Cicero. I always thought his devotion to the Night Mother but also conceding respect for the Dragonborn as the Listener was fantastic. I never kill him and I think the (probably overwhelmingly male side of) Skyrim fandom's hate of him is weird.

just downloaded the skyrim artbook. honestly really interesting to see how the concepts were developed. some of the illustrations for the nordic ruins made me feel a bit sad though, because seeing them in-game would have been so fucking amazing. a lot of concepts didn't make it through bc of time/budget, but recognizing places or items just from the rough sketches is some super cool stuff. really makes me appreciate the game and realize how much love and effort is needed for developing a game
