Well it's been like, 6 months since this came out. I just got back into it after making my way through the workshop
What mods are ya'll using at this point?
I have about 24 mods running, tried a Drink Eat Sleep one but found it got to be tedious because fast travel would just drain your sleep stat and then you'd be screwed with no where to sleep in the middle of a dungeon.
The others are mostly just stylistic ones, Sounds of Skyrim, SkyUI, Better Snow, Better Werewolves, Unlimited Bookshelves, Detailed Cities, etc. If any of you know of some good ambiance adding mods let me know! (Or good mods in general) *Especially if they aren't performance heavy* I am probably going to add Scaling Magic some time soon, too.
So far I am not noticing any sort of crashes from the mods, but i do get a frame-rate drop when zoning into the main map after a particularly long dungeon.
Also: Dual Wielding/Light Armor is an awesomely fun way to play. Doing it on Expert right now and am level 17, and damn, are you forced to think strategically for almost every tough encounter because just straight running up to them will get you killed; which means I have to use a mix of alteration/restoration and shouts almost at all times to stay alive (I have even had to break out the occasional scroll for some boss fights). I have so many poisons I could destroy a lake haha. It's very fun and fast paced and if you're bored because you're finding the game easy, try the life of the Light armor dual wielding maniac.
