There's a couple overhaul mods that flesh out the war system to actually have impact, and put back some of the cut content that was actually worth restoring and generally just improve gameplay and add content, some other smaller ones that just focus on characters story and quest lines being cleaned up. Theres also quite a few mods that change the story in customizable ways to make it less shit, personally I used the MEHEM and EGM mods with the citadel as the epilogue and it was very comfy. Its been a minute since I played it but I would recommend modding and playing the LE for 1-2 then switching to the original for 3 since some of the older mods I liked hadn't been ported. I did have to create an exact copy of my save with story flags copied from LE with the save editor to back port into 3 so fair warning (though there could have been a better way and I didn't know).Oyster Sauce wrote: ↑ March 27th, 2024, 12:41First I've heard of this.

Is there an area on the site with an organized list of games and MODHQ recommended mod lists? Would be nice to see things categorized as such. I trust the general recommendations of players here over random "top bestest mods eva for..." sites which pollute them with garbage and cheats. One of the biggest obstacles for me is getting everything setup as I usually spend days organizing, tweaking and setting up to play only to lose interest once I am done and move on to something else.
If there were a place I could go to see a list of recommendations (maybe even put into paks, or categorized by style of play), it would greatly speed up the process and I would likely make it over the hurdle and into play.

The reason why I am here. Thank you MODHQ.Metalhead33 wrote: ↑ March 26th, 2024, 20:45- Baldur's Gate 3: No Alphabets, or at the very least, Ser Aylin, is a must have. The game is so pozzed in its vanilla state that it makes me vomit.

Probably any of the mods related to war effort, as by default it's retarded.Oyster Sauce wrote: ↑ March 27th, 2024, 12:41First I've heard of this.

Planescape: Torment with Ultimate WeiDU Fixpack.
Haven't seen how popular it has been over the years and have also not tried to run the Non-EE-version without the fixpack. Got to Crust at least last time it was installed.
Don't know if it can therefore be considered saved.

Arguably none honestly. There's no games that didn't at least require a very solid and enjoyable foundation first. Mods can improve a game sure but I don't think there's ever been a truly awful game that is unplayable without mods. Even Skyrim needed the foundations of an enjoyable game for people to care enough to mod it so heavily in the first place. Then you also get into the argument of how far can you stretch modding to the point where you can't even really say you've modified the specific game to be good. It's more like you've used such a heavy load order to turn it into a different game entirely.

They all swear by Dork Messiah. I suppose Kingdom Dumb Deliverance also has its fans.
Oblivion was really messed up at release, it seemed ok, but not something I would have played till the end without major modding. Skyrim, I couldn't even enjoy due to the design directions and waiting till mods came out to make it worthy of playing.Vergil wrote: ↑ March 27th, 2024, 18:42Arguably none honestly.
