My Favourite Simple Skyrim Mods

Since Fallout 4 was released, I've been hooked on that game more than crack, like I literally would always find myself going back to it despite getting sick of Preston preaching about a settlement needing help.With it being valentines weekend, and not doing anything special, I thought I'd whip out my old trusty laptop and get back into some Skyrim.Now I'm not going to go all "PC is superior" on you, because I have had my fair share of Skyrim on the console, however in comparison to the PC version?PC wins hands down for me.This is mainly due because of the mods, where you have more options to customise your character, added clothes/armour, more textures, weapons etc you get the idea.Originally it was just about being able to customise my character to look like me, but then I took it a step too far and basically went for the "this is what I want to look like" character.I regularly share images of this game on my Instagram/Facebook, and get asked what mod is that and where to download it.I thought the best thing would be to do showcase of images with the mods and links on here, because it would just drive people nuts if I do each post seperately, plus the amount of time it would take too!*Please note I use Steam,Nexus Mods and SKSE.1 or more of these will be required for the mod to work correctly*
Remember when The Avengers came out in cinemas a few years back?During that time everyone was going nuts on the Steam Community making Ironman armour and Thors hammer, but I was sitting patiently for someone to make Loki as a follower.Amazing creator JP Doctor on Steam, achieved this, and it has been one of my top favourite mods because I've never once had an issue.Loki makes an exceptional follower, being very useful in sticky situations and also not getting in the way when your trying to take on a group of bandits.He comes with his helmet and electrical scepter than he uses during combat that can do quite a bit of damage.This mod doesn't need any required DLC for it to work which is a bonus.JP Doctor also has some other great followers too, check them out

The first image face structure wise and the second with the short top, gloves and shorts comes the mod "Temptress Race" by Psychos1s and Brokefoot on nexusmods.This was my first ever mod that I downloaded and started my addiction in downloading more.It gives you the option of having it as a player character or as a follower, and there are 5 to choose from.Your also given some quite seductive clothing, with goes well with the "seductive" traits this race has.For this mod to work correctly, you will need to download this hair mod by Apachii first, then you can continue to download Temptress Race.I chose to have hair hair option for my character, as long hair can interfere with collared dresses.To improve the face and make it more realistic, I recommend downloading "Luscious Faces" by Dretmo on Steam
Next up is this beautiful ice jewelled dress by Frigus on nexusmods.This was the second mod I installed alongside with the bodyslider, because I found the preset clothes on this game awful.This dress is fairly tight hugging, making my characters boobs bigger than they are, but it compliments everything else.The detail of the studs lining up to the collar at the back of the neck is beautiful, and it has a long split ice blue cape down the back (image at the end of this post)Its one of my favourite dresses for my character and the blue looks even better at the College of Winterhold.The only issue with this mod is wearing a necklace which may peep through clothing, and the collar will point through if your character has long hair.The red elven dress is a recent download by Naihaan on nexusmods and can be downloaded here


I'm sure its been pretty obvious for a while now, and if a game is open to mods, its going to be in the top things I search for: DOCTOR WHO!This is probably the worst photo I have of my character and the Tardis, purely because the decent ones had the stupid bar in the way and I had to crop it out everytime.This is the best Tardis mod I've come across, with the landing sound, full interactive Tardis, sonic screwdriver and being able to fly it to locations.It doesn't look like the latest Tardis here, however I have just learnt that the creator (ShatteredStell) on nexusmods, has updated it to the latest layout, so Id recommend for you to download it here.SKSE,Dawnguard and Dragonborn are required for the latest version to run correctly.
I tend to wonder around naked a lot, especially in the hot springs or around the house when no one is about, and the preset bodies are disastrous.I looked about online to find a body slider, with the majority being pre-set to either ginormous boobs(and I mean ginormous), or a Kim Kardashian ass which is way to much fakeness.I came across "Beautiful Bodies Edition" by Caliente on nexusmods, and it gives you a selection of more natural looking preset bodies.As seen from the back in this image, my character now has a very perky bum and her figure is hourglass with reasonable sized boobs.These can be altered to what you'd like, but this setting "Vanilla" is a pretty good natural body preset.
I was pretty late to jump on the Halo Bandwagon, but as soon as I did, I haven't got off since, and at some point my brain decided to look for Master Chief as a follower.Now before all you Cortana and Master Chief shippers get on my ass, I ship them too and I've only got him in my game because he knows how to get the job done and he's a good ally.Also Cortana makes a feature so there would be no way of getting in between these two.The mod was created by JP Doctor and DarkSeeker117, and the two voice actors, in my opinion that done a pretty damn good job are DawnEntirely and Karl Williams.It is available on steam here

That's it for now on my favourite mods, even though I have many more and there's better, it would just be a very long post.If your undecided on what platform to download mods from, I would always go for nexusmods, purely because the creators update more often, are easier to contact to report an issue, and the installation doesn't mess about compared to steam and SKSE but thats just down to experience.

Fallout 4- First Impressions on Xbox One

(This post is not a review)So besides beauty related stuff, video games has always been my number one interest, dating way back since I was 3.Since tuesday, I've been spending all of my time playing Bethesda's most anticipated game, Fallout 4.I avoided  gameplay video's as much as I could,not wanting to spoil anything for myself and only focused on the S.P.E.C.I.A.L videos, causing the wait to feel so much longer, however the wait was so very worth it.

Normally I would purchase the Fallout games for the PC, but decided to see how well it would manage on the Xbox One and I am not disappointed.Firstly I wanted to start on the graphics as some people have complained that the graphics aren't as sharp as the PC, which makes sense, because sometimes the PC version is more superior compared to the consoles graphics, however I have no issue with the console graphics.


Now this game is absolutely massive, to the point where I enjoy running around everywhere instead of fast travelling.Each hour/day is different from the one before, which makes it more enjoyable in my opinion because you never know what round the corner.One of the encounters I had within my first hour of this game, was that I could see a house in the far distance with some people outside.I thought "yaay!I've found some people!" and sprinted over to them to start a conversation.Next thing I knew, they'd all turned to look at me, then proceeded to charge in my direction...Yep I'd ran into some ghouls with a low ammo'd gun and a dog.No way did I survive that.Since then I've been very cautious when seeing human like folk outside the house, even though they are not that difficult to kill, I still don't like pissing them off.

Another one of my favourites is the way you can interact with others, which I thought i'd hate due to past experience's with games I hated the options to progress the conversation.Fallout has that witty yet interesting choice's you can choose with other characters, making that person have an actual opinion on you.I also love the choice that you can be a sarcastic bitch, but this can land you in trouble sometimes so be wary.Cogsworth is my favourite in this, listening to his random comments while exploring.He's also a saucy little fucker every time you bend over/crouch, and was worried that he was gonna stick one of his metal arms somewhere, so I let him try on someone else (photo below). Strangly though, I'm quite protective over him when it comes to fighting, as he's always sacrificing his metal ass for me to get away or to be cannon fodder while I shoot the crap out of everything else, and yes that sounds all useful but I don't want him to get hurt even though he feels no pain "apparently".

(Spoiler) So far I've only experienced one bug, and thats with Preston.After killing the Deathclaw, and you choose to follow them to the sanctuary, there will be a time when you come across a car and Preston decides he wants to be a ghost and attempts to walk through it.I made the two mistakes of trying to move him and talking to him hoping he would spawn on the other side, instead he vanishes into thin air and you can't move on without him, even if you fast travel.You either have to reload a save or wait for him to actually move around the car, and that can depend on how long he decides he doesn't want to be a ghost and actually moves around the car.Other than that no other negatives and it was well worth the money for this game :)

This post will be updated with more Fallout 4 images over the next couple of days, as I've been too focused on quests than taking screenshots of the game.Their will be various screenshots throughout the game which maybe spoilers for some.The quality isn't as good as I had reduce the image size for it to fit on the page and not overlap.Also if its not obvious already, Paladin Danse is one of my favourites :)
