I recently bought a new laptop which can run Lexy’s Legacy of the Dragonborn modpack and set it up. It took me ~2 weeks to put everything together but it works and I’m enjoying the mods! Especially the museum which helps tremendously with my desire to hoard items.
I’ve only ever played vanilla Skyrim, and found the experience fun; however, I could not handle the combat, with the melee weapons feeling like they lacked any weight. Do you think it’s worth playing again with this modpack?
Hmm…it definitely changes combat (look up Ultimate Combat + Wildcat), but this is definitely a difficulty-based modpack. Still, with a bunch of followers it’s easier, but you can quickly end up being killed in the heat by a bad swing of a warhammer.
Sounds good! To be honest, I usually played most Bethesda games using V.A.T.S, which was only on Fallout. One thing I liked was that I just had to endure a tough early game, and as long as I stacked my skills accordingly, I became a killing machine with the press of a button. As a result, I didn’t enjoy the Elder Scrolls games as much since they didn’t have that mechanic, and it seems like a difficulty-based combat system might not fit what I was looking for.
For role-playing purposes, is it possible to do a charisma/leadership build where you allow your followers to do all the combat, while you stay back and just pick people off with arrows? I see that you can have up to four followers, so not sure if that type of build is possible.
