i am impressed
with friggin skyrim of all things. hear me out,
i didnt expect to enjoy it, im not even sure why i installed it. i was just curious of a few mods believing theres no way i could enjoy this game again. but after the mods, i was floored. it looks like a friggin modern game from 2021 just running ENB and flora overhaul. and obsidian weathers. wew it looks better than anything ive seen before. its really something.
besides the gfx, i have my usual fare of autistic gameplay mechanics but also found a couple a bad ass new toys to add.
the new minimap is totally gangster, it shows you where bodies are it, and shows anything alive with color coding dependant on creatures disposition. also shows any entrances on the map. it works damn good.
then i got this camera mod called smoothcam, its like a modern game 3rd person perspective with a floating camera which moves sort of offset from your directional movement, but also ass proper 3rd person crosshairs which calculate projectile arc and velocity all in realtime and buttery smooth.
then i added this mod which changes how you move, with true directional movement and no side stepping, but it also does this thing with hp bars placing a nice tight hp bar over the enemies head and gives bosses a huge fixed hp bar like in other popular rpgs. you can also lock onto enemies with a lock-on cursor which pops up like in games such as zelda or dark souls or something, and cycle through locked enemies. the locking forces your direction on them like most other rpgs.
then i installed this mod which shows enemy level in the hp field and also shows floating damage numbers which work on everything and display colored text for non damage related things, like bold gold text for block and green text for healing. the numbers are damn instant exactly as if they were programmed natively
wew im having a blast here,
combine all that with all my other gameplay changes and its damn good. nothing is glitchy
