Trouble choosing CBBE or UNP

[10Tigers]

I've been out of the game so long everything is unplayable so I am reinstalling and beginning from scratch. This means choosing a female body replacer.

My question is: which one is more standardized? Aesthetically I like them both equally. I make heavy use of animation, and armor/clothing mods and I want to choose the one with the most compatibility. I've been out of the game for a while so my knowledge is dated. There are a ton of mods for both so what are your thoughts and experiences on the subject?

Fallout 4 only has CBBE out of them body mods listed, so considering UNP is exclusive to Skyrim, CBBE will be the one you want, (as you are posting this question on the fallout 4 forums)

 

even so i would also choose it for Skyrim as Well, CBBE is far superior, it has higher polygon count, Arguably better default textures (although the textures available for fallout 4 are pretty damn amazing and as such i use them instead such as the 8k Body texture mod), and the Ultimate Bonus Being Bodyslide and Outfit studio, where you get to fully customize your CBBE body, thus allowing you to create females exactly how you like them, CBBE also includes all vanilla armor and clothing Bodyslided to CBBE anyway, so you dont even need to worry about that. as all Vanilla Armor and Clothing will fit perfectly on your new custom body. and then with bodyslide and outfit studio you will be able to bodyslide them to your custom preset as well.

 

case in point, CBBE all the way.

 

for fallout 4, Cbbe is the highest rated and has the most custom armor and clothing specifically made for it. almost all armor and clothing mods are in fact ether made for it or supports it.

 

as for skyrim, i dont know, not played it in a very long time.

 

for the record, CBBE on Fallout 4 Blows Skyrim out of the water. the character models with the ultra hd textures, just looks amazing in comparison. its like going from dvd to bluray. thats a big part in why i stopped playing skyrim, i hate how fake the game looks. with the right setup, fallout 4 visually blows it away. (but thats another topic).
