Sorry for being dumb but what's the big deal with Morrowloot exactly? Vanilla skyrim is "leveled" meaning I can go anywhere and win regardless of my level, and Morrowloot changes it so that some areas are gonna be way too easy / hard for my level. Is that right? Does it mean there's now a certain order you have to go through the various areas to make sure you're roughly the right level? e: basically my question is if I've never completed a play through before and probably only seen like 25% of the game then should I forget about it for now?

Nothing shows up on scans and the archives contain just the mod files. But that doesn't mean all that much since the Nexus has multiple servers and perhaps only one or two got comprised.
|
You could also re-download a few times and check if the file hashes all match.

There are certainly times you'll get your rear end handed to you hard, and you'll either have to keep trying, find a new strategy or come back later. It can be a little rough with alternate starts, depending on where you end up. I've found it works well for me to start on novice and raise the difficulty every 10 levels. The only crazy hard fight I can think of is Movarth near Morthal. I understand why the author thinks he should be hard (for lore reasons) but it is an insane spike in a fairly moderate questline to get a hearhtfire house.

It was always weird how Movarth is this legendary ancient vampire but he's just hanging out in a cave outside Morthal waiting for you to come wipe the floor with him. e: I was going to write some sarcastic comments about the whole Volkihar thing which somehow manages to be even dumber but what's the point, everyone is aware how horrible the writing in Dawnguard is

Been laying a bit of groundwork to play Skyrim again, got SPERG, Noble Skyrim HD, and this thing that buffs artifacts installed. If I wanted to add some survival stuff it'd basically be Frostfall and iNeed, right? Is Campfire even compatible with SPERG? Also, any opinions on M'Rissi's Tails of Troubles? I was watching some of MxR's mod roundups and this really jumped out at me as noticeably well-made.

sebmojo posted:I like frostfall, because it makes going into the high snowy mountains a thing you have to prepare for. I'm okay with some survival elements but after playing tons of BotW I really don't want to deal with temperature again. That said, anyone have recommendations for some basic survival mods that aren't too brutal? I wasn't going to bother with them on this run but SPERG seems to add a lot of abilities based on daily cooldowns and it'd be nice if there was an incentive to not just rest for 24 hours after every fight. Survival mods kind of force you to not do that due to things like hunger.

Oooook. So after the first round of SSE modding, including Noble Skyrim, Riften already runs at 40-45 FPS. I have a 6600k and a GTX 1080, on SSE. I play at 1080p. I haven't yet installed an ENB.  e: with a Cinematic ENB Riften runs at ~33 FPS e2: ok, so dropping Open Cities gained back at least 10 FPS. Shame, I liked the mod. Now to figure out the rest...

So what's the real weigh in for NMM vs MO2? Is MO2 stable enough that it's worth using and being updated frequently enough? Is NMM not absolutely trash anymore? It's been like 2 and a half years since i've modded so i'm coming in almost completely fresh. One other question, I remember there being a mod that let you gently caress around with every single one of the ini settings in a nice easy neat program, skyrim configurator or something? does a version exist for SSE?

Is there a mod that disable kill cam moves used by NPCs, or lowers the threshold to a ridiculously low number? I keep getting sucked into animations where I can't do anything and then die instantly. If I was at super low health I wouldn't care but against some enemies it can happen when I have a good chunk of HP left. One guy was able to proc kill animations on me from 90% health. EDIT: Like come the gently caress on  I don't care if its a dragon it shouldn't be able to instantly kill me when I have over half my health left.

They're both stable and usable. I think MO2 is a bit more of a pain, but it lets you do more stuff, like play multiple characters with completely different mods. There's really nothing wrong with NMM anymore and it is pretty simple to use, which is why i use it.

So I'm in the middle of setting up my modded Skyrim SE using that Dragon Rising guide posted recently and I've got to the AI part where Immersive Citizens rears it's head. What's the general consensus on this mod these days, is it worth it or will it once again gently caress up a bunch of other mods while a deranged Frenchman threatens all and sundry? And if it's not worth it, what are some good alternatives?

The only way I can kinda sorta justify it in my head is the Last Dragonborn is so confident in his own invincibility that he figures it'll make things easier if he lets her lead him to the Super Duper Deluxe Vampires' super secret hideout, and then he can get to some serious vampire murder. But then Harkon pulls out that bullshit instant banishment spell--boy, I bet Alduin wishes he'd learned that one--and... that's pretty much where I lose the thread entirely, because it makes no sense that the Last Dragonborn would choose that point to say "Huh, well, guess I'd better run clear to the exact opposite end of Skyrim, leaving that Elder Scroll behind with the Super Duper Deluxe Vampires who openly are trying to end the world, and tell the Dawnguard to gear up to assault this place, because I'll really need their help!" As I said, the only headcanon that makes not instantly killing Serana make any sense involves the Dragonborn being super arrogant, so he wouldn't go "hey, I need help with this!" And then even if he did, why the hell would he take several days' journey back to the rear end end of the Rift to get said help, as opposed to, say, going to Solitude and explaining things to Falk/Tullius (or if you already kicked the empire out, there's a big Stormcloak army holding Solitude and Windhelm is still way closer than Fort Dawnguard) and getting a regiment or two? And that's just the beginning of that mess. graynull posted:It would have made much more sense (and even introduced a later-used mechanic) if Serana had ambushed you with a bite when you mention the dawnguard wanting you to kill her.

Maybe but then you run into the same cutscene helplessness bullshit (i.e., plot rails, the exact thing we play Bethesda games and tolerate the hideous bugginess because they don't have) that makes the Thieves' Guild quest so asinine.

In my headcanon Serana uses her vampiric mind magicks on the DB the moment she's freed. Nothing in the plot makes sense otherwise

Yeah I don't care that I got betrayed, I just hated that the game assumed I was totally onboard with all the Nocturnal bullshit. Its supposed to be a thieves guild, not a cult. I worship Daedra and do whatever they want on my own terms dammit The Nocturnal lady (can't remember her name) was such a bad character that as soon as I finished the quest I used the console to remove her essential status and killed her. Never done that with another NPC before.

The Nocturnal thing is extra bad because it doesn't actually do anything. You've already got the armour. Selling your soul doesn't give you any special powers. You apparently need the powers of a Nightingale (that you don't get) to defeat the bad guy who still has his powers maybe? I guess because he's the only person in the questline who actually stole something so he's been true to his thief nature.
