There's already plenty of mods for Skyrim, but obviously there hasn't been much time for a whole lot to come out. This is a place for you to post mods that YOU want to see! And if you know of a mod that someone mentions, post it!
-----------------------
As for me, I'm underwhelmed by Skyrim. It's definitely fun, but it isn't amazing and everywhere I look I feel like there's so much to be improved upon.
Anyway, here are a few mods I'd like to see:
- Feed Horses : I didn't want to buy a horse, and I didn't want to steal from the city. Later, I found a group of bandits and took them out. They had a horse that no longer had an owner, as they were all dead. I thought to myself, "Perfect! An ex-bandit horse to be my best friend forever!" I hopped on and rode off into the distance. When I dismounted, it sauntered off though back to its dead owners. I'd like a mod where you can feed a horse a food (or several) to gain its loyalty and have it join you. Each horse could even have a different "favorite food" (apples, carrots, etc) so that you have to try some foods before it joins you.
- Lesser Health/Magicka Regeneration : This one already kinds of exists, but you regenerate way too quickly in this game. I've never once used a single health or magicka potion because it all comes back almost immediately. I went into the console and set the regen to 0.05 (it's normally 0.7) so that you regen verrrrrrry slowly over time, but not anywhere near enough to rely on it. You're just likely to heal after a long time of wandering around. This made it so that I finally had to be concerned about my health, and I started thinking, "I shouldn't jump from this high," and "Better have a potion, in case," and, "Careful with that magic use." Before this, it was akin to modern shooting games where you take 30 bullets to the face and heal by sitting behind a wall for 10 seconds.
- Hunger System : The food restores health or stamina. And stamina regens so quickly it could never matter anyway. Food won't restore more than a potion, and cooking isn't worth the effort, so why fucking bother with food at all? There should be a hunger system to keep you on your toes and make sure you're eating. Get too hungry, stats start dropping. Starving takes health away. Etc. Cooked foods restore more. Wee.
- Sleep Needed : Sleep is a side-note at best. You might wake "rested" or "well-rested", but I didn't notice any difference at all. There should be a sleep system based on hours awake. You cannot take on the legions of undead and not come out wanting a nap afterwards. Get low on sleep, vision becomes blurry, stats drop, etc.
I understand not many would want to play this way, but I do. This game is too damn easy as it stands and I want something more to focus on than "kill bandit".
- Harder Enemies : Oh, harder enemies would be good too. I actually have to cripple myself so that I don't kill everything in one or two hits.
There's plenty more I wouldn't mind seeing, but this is what's standing out to me at the moment.
What about you guys?
Edit: Another one:
- A Potion Rack : I want a mod where I can "Activate" a Potion Rack like I can a Bookshelf or Weapon Rack. I want to be able to display my potions and crap but not have to fucking set them on the shelves.
