For example, there’s a control panel in the Options menu that many recent mods plug into automatically, allowing players to fine-tune many of the more complex mod systems. While SkyUI changes a lot of things in favor of easier navigation (most notably Skyrim’s ridiculously cumbersome inventory) it adds a few new features too. When everything starts to feel a little too familiar, it’s time to take advantage of Skyrim’s robust modding scene for a total revamp.
Before you’ve filled the basements of every one of your houses with wheel after wheel of firm yellow Eidar cheese. Before you have every title a character can have. Skyrim has been a constant presence on my hard drive since it was released just over 3 years ago, but as much as I love it I have to admit that there are only so many hours that you can spend playing before you know the map like the back of your hand. There are fewer new games coming out for players to sink their teeth into, but there is a moment of calm to dip into ever-deepening backlogs or return to time-tested favorites. The winter release lull is a blessing and a curse.
