It's alright...
Too bad you need so many mods for it to be stable and/or enjoyable.

(Just for the record, this review was ment as fun reference to the 100s of hours I've spent playing it, combined with a somewhat serious statement)

I understand your point and respect your opinion, but at least on my hardware and with both Windows 7 and 10 the game was not stable enough. I experienced crashes too often while wandering through the wilds, while playing the game vanilla.

Regarding console version, I find it odd to re-use the same interface that was designed for a console with a gamepad and 480p-1080p resolution, for a PC with mouse, keyboard and often higher resoultion screen.
The interface was the first thing that bogged me down and in my mind held the game back. Besides interface- and stability-mods, the rest are down to a matter of taste and artistic vision.

That's not true at all, BitFaze! The game is fine without mods, people are just so dependent upon them for enjoyment that they've forgotten how to have a good time without them. This is why I usually recommend that people play this game on console
before they play it on PC, because mods are a distraction from the base experience that skyrim players need to learn to adjust to without making any changes to it. Then, they are free to play around with it in whatever way they see fit.

Also, the game is stable enough as it is without stability mods, but I will admit that stability mods will indeed improve the stability, even though I feel that this is not necessary unless you have a huge load order of player made content.
