It’s hard to say tbh, Skyrim offers a great base to mod off of, the scripting system is very strong too(only held back but slow refresh times) and tools are freely available and easy to uae to create these mods, I assume aswell the fact there’s not been another TES game to pull people away and the general state of gaming over the last decade, people are going back to it
Also tons of people myself included make mod lists but never play
Why was it ever SO hot though? I was always blown away that so many people build and use 10k mods for a 15 year old game.
Was it like an Android customization thing? Making your perfect game? I played modded Skyrim a few times and at a certain point it just got silly.
I will plug modded Morrow-wind though. What an amazing game if you can get the graphics a little more up to par.
