    The Improved Follower Behaviour mod is the best thing I've added to Starfield so far.

      @Starfield_Eclipse it's a game changer for ship building. Although I have heard some chatter about CC or the Bethesda mod manager causing problems. I've been using it for months but a yter had real problems with it and the only difference was he was using CC. I know he got it working but I don't know if he figured out what was wrong. I better check.

    Two must have game enhancing mods are DarkStar Astrodynamics and DarkStar Manufacturing.
    The mod developer also has a discord.

      @@baxter2908 I did some research and I am going to pick these up. I will probably do a separate video on them, I think they are in the spirit of Starfield but might be a little too much for the purist to accept. Maybe pitch it as an extension of the base game.

    A mod you should try is SKK followers and Stalkers, mainly for the stalkers chance. put Stalkers on random chances and max distance. Together with darker nights and no enemy compass, this mod has given me the best gaming experience I ever had. The world feels alive and random and the nights are terrifying. Must have

    This is great. I want to keep the Starfield theme while adding mods to extend my Starfield experience. Games start with the theme music and scenery that gets you into the game b4 the game starts. No Star Wars or other game intro music, no mods additions for me.

    Thanks for the showcase. I need that flashlight even without darker nights, cuz I'm old. Every single Bethesda game has needed some version of improved follower AI. I will check on the Ship parts unlocked. I agree that having to go to specific star yards is not a fun addition of gameplay. But I wonder if it also does level unlocks, because that would be more cheaty. These and the ability to control door and ladder placement are going to get me to mod this game. Probably wait a bit more to let the dust settle and get more input from the volunteer testers. Thanks for all you do.

    • @Starfield_Eclipse

      It does unlock the level. If you are low level you may want to hold off but I think everything is unlocked by level 70

    Thank you for taking my recommendation. Likewise, I've decided to choose Darker Nights over Pitch Black Nights.

    I haven't turned on mods yet cause I wanna get all the Achievements first. But I feel Bethesda should allow some modders to allow achievements. I bought Photomode frames and they don't work without turning off the Achievements :(

    • @Starfield_Eclipse
      @Starfield_Eclipse  Před 6 dny +2

      There is an achievement friendly symbol that they use to show the ones that don't disable achievements. I think BGS has to review the mod first to ensure that it doesn't affect gameplay before it gets the achievement friendly flag.

      A lot of those mods are around yes, but it sounds like you have not dug deep enough. Mods come in all flavors.
      Personally, I am very careful to make sure the mods I create fit with the lore. Sometimes researching the lore for years, for example with Conan Exiles I helped open a lore research archive for modders.
