This is my 2nd day of researching about modded Skyrim, and oh boy I never knew I needed that much storage space.

I want to find modlists with a bunch of magic-related mods. Based on my research, Apocalypse and Triumvirate are the core for any modlist that seriously focuses on magic (I could be wrong)

So Tomes of Talos and ElderTeej seem to fit the bill here, but why do they have a +400GB installation size requirement? I don't care about Requiem, but at this point I can't be picky as long as it's not >300GB.

So this is my first playthrough of Fallout 4, or to be more specific, any Bethesda game at all. I'm looking to enhance my first playthrough with mods, and here are my needs:

- I don't care about whether it's authentic to the original game/vision

- If possible, I want to emulate the Stalker experience

- Since this is my first Fallout game, I don't know how to play the game at all, so any mods that alter the game's tutorial process are a no-go

Magic has always been underdeveloped in a lot of Fantasy games, and I want to find some good ones.

What I mean by good is that there is a variety in spells in terms of both visual and functional; most games stop at Magic Missile, Fireball, and Lightning Strike

Best game that I played with this aspect (ordered):

- Dragon's Dogma 2: One of the best in this aspect imo, plenty of spells with different functionality like Levitate, Enchantment. Capture the strategic side of Wizard where your spells take 30s to cast.

- Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous: One of the only CRPGs that does magic its service

- Avowed: Spellbook with a lot of unique spells

- Elden Ring: Good visual variety, but a lot of them end up being either too OP or too bad. Love Faith build, which is essentially a Paladin

- Larian Games: Cool visual but too shallow

- Pillars of Eternity/Solasta: Same as Larian

A couple I haven't tried yet, and from what I see, it's not gonna be good:

- Skyrim: Seems clunky and shallow

- Witcher 3: Bad combat

I've been using the VodSync extension for a while now but it seems like the creator shut it down, I wonder if anyone have an alternative or backup?
