In fact, it’s the very foundation this BMS is built upon. If an install-and-play modlist is something that you are looking for however, don’t worry, that is still an option. I decided to make a Modlist that could help anybody and everybody–all in a way that doesn’t bulldoze you, the user, into a modlist that you can’t deviate from. So I decided to do more than create a one-size-fits-all, “my way or the highway” modlist… Who is BMS for? Because of that, shortly after I started this endeavor, I realized that not everybody’s tastes to gameplay, visuals, and audio are similar to mine. This is, however, also my personally curated list of mods–ones that I enjoy using, and playing with… meaning your definition of lore-friendliness may be different to mine. What about the types of mods you should expect? First and foremost, BMS strives for immersion and lore friendliness. Bugs and Crashes are enemy number one and are patched as soon as possible upon discovery. Unlike many lists however that dump massive quantities of mods without further testing or polish, BMS is committed to a higher level of quality. What this means is that our modlist is ever updating, growing and improving.

That’s right, because the list of Skyrim mods is ever changing, this is an ongoing effort–not a one and done list. It compiles every single noteworthy mod that ever existed and will ever exist into a list and then filters that list repeatedly to achieve synergy, cohesion and most importantly stability.

The Best Modlist for Skyrim, or BMS, is the culmination of hundreds of hours modding Skyrim and seeks to consider every mod that has ever existed and will ever exist on Nexus and beyond. SKSE64 AE 2.1.1 What is The Best Modlist for Skyrim?
