Same to me, I played 2500 hours with about 150 mods activated and never have seen the end of the game. Skyrim SE looks very nice but the UI is boring. I think nobody can like the game with the vanilla UI.

Thank you for that wonderful article!! I really enjoyed reading it.

 

I picked up my 1st copy of Skyrim 11/11 for the 360...and played well over 6K hrs, then in May of last year I finally got a PC that would run Skyrim.. and I've never looked back. I had a list of mod's I wanted, before I actually had my PC... A completely different approach, as I knew what I did not like and I had "tracked" the mods that would fix those things.

You say there is a version that works, is it the latest version posted in the Skyrim Nexus site or a special download? I miss it a lot, but don't want to go back to Skyrim and not play SSE.

Yes, Skyrim is the penultimate poster boy for modding computer games.... It's hard to believe how much better the original Skyrim looks and plays with the 70+ mods I use that all seem to work together without a problem! I'll be delighted when modding comes together for SE, though--should be able to do much more with it...! As you discovered, SKSE is a must!

But right now? I can't believe how much more striking my original Skyrim is than the SE version--even with the few mods available for it at the moment. My original Skyrim looks so much better, in fact, that it's like another game entirely! It's easy to forget how homely the base game is...

I've been at gaming & computers (no consoles here!) beginning with the Amiga in 1986--so that makes, let's see--30 years! Gaaa... I'm old!...:D And I haven't lost my passion for computer gaming yet! (It's great in retirement! Keeps me sane!)

Seriously, you are as young as you feel, and a youthful attitude of curiosity and discovery will keep you young long after you start being able to hear your friend's arteries as they harden while you talk to them!.. Some of my friends are so old...and *stiff*, I guess is the right word! So hang in there--the world is your Oyster! Stick with it because it is worth sticking to!

I'm not sure what the "Director of Content" actually does at Nexus, but I enjoyed your article and look forward to hearing more from you!

True, but i never used the ui, not really, hotkey mods!!! With pinnacle game profiler and a 360 controller made the experience seamless, it was like playing a musical instrument.

To me, half the game was coming up with the load list of mods. It was about finding the perfect list of the best mods and making them play nice together whether that required learning how to make merged lists or whatever. Then, the rest of the thousands of hours I spent, I just did what I wanted. I think I only completed the main quest twice and that was years after getting the game. I played Oblivion for thousands of hours, too and only completed it a couple of times. I spent time on side quests, building certain skills for specific types of characters. I do LOVE the main quest of Skyrim. I just don't feel "married" to it like I have to rush out and get it done. I mean the Prima guide is 1119 pages long, jam-packed with information. This is a HUGE, intricate game with many complicated systems. It could be played vanilla forever without getting old if one is a true roleplayer, so of course with mods it's no wonder we play for thousands of hours and don't always do the main quest.
