If there's one thing I can't get enough of, it's ragdoll physics in video games. While their inclusion can ruin the mood of some of the best RPGs by pinging people (and players) around like they're made of jelly, there's just something hilarious about them. Like puppets. And if this Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim: Special Edition mod is half as good as it looks, I worry for the guards always chasing me out of Makarth. Seriously, I can't remember what I did there years ago, but they've never let me live it down. Read the full story on PCGamesN: This new Skyrim mod is unashamedly vibe-coded, but it let

Skyrim's got a lot of NPCs. Thing is, most of 'em are dolts. They don't have any kind of distinct personality or routine, and sometimes do the dumbest stuff imaginable. I'll never forget the time a dragon flew down to attack me near a settlement, destroying some fencing in the process, and the entire town swivelled before charging towards me, daggers drawn, completely ignoring the massive dragon in their midst that had actually caused the damage...

I loved The Witcher 3's wobbly bushes. In the original version of The Witcher 3 they used to sway like they were singing Auld Lang Syne on New Year's Eve, and it really helped bring Velen to life. Particle Wind, a mod by RavenKZP, does the same for Skyrim... Read more.

It's me, the player who starts Skyrim over and over with different mod loadouts and yet, nine times out of 10, ends up crouching with a bow shooting draugr in slow motion. Every now and then I push myself into another playstyle—like two-handed melee barbarian or summon-focused wizard—but drift back to my old favorite. I haven't installed the mod that just kills you if you play Stealth Archer again, but I am absolutely part of the reason that mod exists... Read more.

The way NPCs open doors in Skyrim has always been a bit silly. When they're crossing load screens they can't open them all the way—because then the other side would have to be rendered—and so they pop doors open a crack revealing a sliver of darkness, then fade out of existence like the guy in that one meme...

Sometimes in Skyrim you wander into a hole in the ground, fight some draugr, defeat a dragon priest, collect a shout, and leave via an exit that conveniently loops you back to where you came in. Sometimes you end up in a gloaming fungal underworld and only emerge hours later barely remembering what the surface looks like. If you'd like more of the latter experience, The Rot Below is probably the mod for you... Read more.
