AHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Since you've played it before, I recommend thinking to yourself "is this something I actually care about changing?" before you install a particular mod.

A few recommendations

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/266

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/272

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/1137

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/14910

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/6285

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/1315

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/1090

They will change up gameplay enough but don't have any added quest BS. The Unofficial patch (often called USLEEP) is mandatory for a lot of mods and there's almost no mods that break if you use it. Check out the Skyrim modding thread if you have questions, people there are pretty helpful.

Edit: Oh, and watch a tutorial video about Mod Organizer 2, if you want to mod Skyrim, and especially if you ever want to change what mods you're using in Skyrim, it will make your life so much easier if you use Mod Organizer 2, but it can be slightly overwhelming at first.

I don't see any red flag mods in there, doesn't have the gameplay mods I suggested, but they should fit in fine with everything else if you want to use them. I do recommend getting a perk mod (there's several beside the one I recommended) and if you plan on casting any magic, Apocalypse Spells.

In some areas kind of. Like the texture overhauls and stuff, people have their favorites. The main ones that I know of that people absolutely have to have are SKSE, SkyUI and the unofficial patch, then you can go from there

Huh, well so much for that. I wasn't, like excited about it but I was somewhat interested just since I vaguely knew about it and figured 7 years is a long time for a mod so maybe.

I should just play vanilla New Vegas again, I've forgotten almost everything about it other than the opening.

Vanilla New Vegas is super good, maybe install the JSawyer mod, which is just some balance fixes and changes made by the actual lead developer of the game.

Looked it up out of curiosity (the mod, not the pedo art to be perfectly clear), and man if this were his contributions to the product, I think they coulda figured this out:

ehh... 'all over' is not really true. it's not really a fun mod though, the ncr campaign is this weird call of duty/army hero movie thing where it's just not really a fallout game. apparently the other factions are better but i'm not going to start over a bad game just to see if it's not a turd.

sorry I didn't keep up with this thread today, I was busy keeping up with the stonks thread

there's a lot of righteous anger but also a whoooole lot of not understanding the technical complexities of how trading actually works going around.

the tl;dr of it is: in many and probably most cases, brokerages didn't halt buying of the meme stocks because they just felt like making the price go down and loving over their retail customers. Mostly they did it because of the 2-day settlement rule, which means that various market middlemen are on the hook for the entire liability of the total cumulative trades for 2 days, and a few of them hit capitalization limits imposed by the SEC which required them to stop taking on more risk, e.g., halt trades that add to their book.

Another thing: robinhood gives people free automatic margin, so a bunch of people who think they don't have margin actually had margin accounts, and were being forced to sell shares because of that and not because robinhood decided to just flagarantly break a real big securities law.

That doesn't mean there were no manipulators/liars/etc., of course. It's just... not the whole story by a long shot and in many cases this is not "deregulation in action" it's "regulation in action."

I've been thinking about firing up New Vegas again since I probably haven't played through it since release, but immediately lose interest every time I start to look into modding. Having only one to install and knowing it's from the lead developer might get me over that hump.

its important to keep in mind that JSawyer is a rebalancing mod and the new balance is intended for like, double extra hardcore mode. if you don't like a significantly reduced carry weight limit, much more limited healing and super lethal combat it might not be for you

It's been so long since I played NV the only things I can really remember are the toy gun that can shoot an orbital laser at a target and that the unique super sledge was grossly overpowered

The unique giant deathclaw died without getting a hit on me because I kept him stunned with the sledge for the whole fight
