The first thing everyone planning a new character in Skyrim needs is the Alternate Start mod, and thankfully that’s been available for the Special Edition just after launch. Skyrim: Special Edition alternate start mod At launch, Skyrim Special Edition already had a fair few mods, but it was missing important ones that have become as close to standard as a mod can get. Looking at my mod list, I’ve had no problem with finding just about every kind of upgrade and addition I could think of, from small things like footprints to significant overhauls that fiddle with every texture.
It’s impressive, though not surprising, how vast the list of Special Edition mods has become in such a short time. But I’ve been at it again, obsessively going through Skyrim Nexus and Skyrim Special Edition Nexus, tweaking load orders and hunting down mods conflicts. I won’t even try to calculate it in hours or days because I’d undoubtedly go mad and wonder what I’d done with my life. Is it worth another look? It just might be.įar too much of my time has been spent cramming mods into Elder Scrolls games.
