What's your favorite way to play the game? (lemmy.world)

How do you choose to play the game? Do you enjoy questing, or prefer seeing the world and messing around? Do you consider yourself a roleplayer, or are you more "serious" about the game? How vanilla do you like your game? Fresh as a new download, a little bit of QoL, or total overhaul? Cheese or no cheese?

I play the game like a game, not really paying much attention to the story anymore since I know it like the back of my hand by now. Occasionally I indulge in some RP for shits and giggles, but I'm mostly just completing quests and killing dudes while collecting every unique item to display in my house to... Myself because it's a single player game.

Almost all my mods are purely QOL, however I do also use the big furry mod to change every race into some form of anthro. Or rather, Id like to. It crashes whenever a dragon priest is loaded so I can't really enjoy it. If it was something to do with the ESL, I could fix it myself but I know jack shit about model related modding to fix whatever issue might be the cause. Even just figuring out which thing is altering that one enemy or their clothes to delete it is not something I'm able to do. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

I've been playing since 2011, at this point I've played so much of the regular game that I just can't play it without mods, and ever since I installed the afforme tioned furry mod I can't even play without the mod. Which is a problem. Because I fuck with the mods too much and try to make too many things work with things they really don't want to work with, I actually spend more time modding than I do playing... and yet... I persist. For over a decade. All according to Todd Howard's plan...
