I know most of the Bethesda RPGs have massive mod support, and there's games like Minecraft that have more mods than anyone can imagine. I would consider those games pretty playable in their vanilla states. Would you say there are any games that were "saved" by modding? Or that are still kept alive by thriving modding communities? What are some of your favorite mods?

we've played through about 80% of the game (the first 4 bosses, I think?) on vanilla before adding ValheimPlus. WE HAVEN'T FINISHED IT YET SO NO SPOILERONIS PLS but damn, it was worth it just for being able to pull materials from chests when crafting.

Makes it a whole new experience! There’s mods adding horses, human NPCs that can mine, chop wood, or fight for you, new enemies to spruce up your world, a complete rebalance for the boss fight difficulties, and of course Valheim RAFT which allows you to make a sailing base Ark or Raft style! So say so long to running between 3-4 different bases to farm ingredients or popping onto new islands just to immediately throw down a bed or portal, now you can just take a floating stronghold with you!
