It is odd considering horses are pretty much the only means of travel besides their own feet that there aren't stables everywhere.

Sounds pretty awesome, though I'm not sure it's right for S.T.E.P. It's very likely that the blueprints needed to build these creations have been lost for a very long time and are most likely destroyed or kept hidden somewhere very secure/secret.

I'm not a fan of Vanilla or those mod. The edges look noisy to me.

I love the premise and if they can get it to work properly, I think it's a no-brainer.

Those gems are beautiful, definitely when combined with Better Circlets.

I definitely like the idea and they seem to blend in well.

I prefer the BoS Spriggan but Ren's Matron.

You're already getting damage bonus if they are sleeping or sitting because you can now more easily sneak attack them. That means you get an additional x3 or x2 on top of Stealth which is overkill.

I don't like the added damage multipliers. The sneak bonus should be sufficient, nothing else needs to be added on top of that.

However, the MemPatch would allow users that can and want to, to still use all the same STEP mods but use the beefiest versions (higher resolutions, higher uGrids, etc). So it could still be helpful for a sort of "extreme" STEP install.Possibly, but I don't think that even beefy STEP produces CTDs or ILSs, and the memory patch will not improve performance really, it will just allow you to play where you could not previously (by preventing the most typical situation for CTDs and ILSs). ENBoost is more of a VRAM handler, but same generally applies to that (it is just more stable right now).You would know more than I. I'm just it would allow us to add more do even more for those people who can. Basically, you wouldn't have to turn down a mod because it's performance impact is too large. Obviously is only for the ones that can be resolved due to memory management and of course whenever SKSE released a their memory manager. I'm not suggesting it would do that. I'm suggesting putting it into STEP eventually to allow users to use more demanding mods. Obviously only users who have good enough computers but can't use the mods currently because of bad memory management by Skyrim.

I bought it at launch and I loved the game. So I personally recommend it. One of the best combat systems in an open-world RPG.

I'm not at all surprised. I know people love to hate on Windows 8 but the Metro UI isn't a big hindrance at all. You can boot directly to the desktop and skip it all together. Even then I enjoy using it, mainly for the search feature. On top of that, Windows 8 is amazingly stable and fast.

Terrible comparison there. You should rightfully know what spell you have equipped. However, I do agree that it breaks immersion with the spell name being up in the top right corner of the game the entire time you have a spell equipped.

I like Ren's Originals in all cases except one, which is Arkay. For Arkay I prefer her Alt.

True, but I would wager that we don't ignore the mod because it can be used for exploits. It is a single-player gamer after all and people can do whatever they want in their own game. Instead we should look at the mod as a fix for something and from what I have read it sounds awesome.

Elegant seems to be closer to vanilla, though a little bright. However, circlets are magic infused jewelry, so I can so them being more bright and being more dark.

Another thing to consider is that we have no idea how Bethesda planned to finish this content and therefore it could be completely different from their intentions.

Those 2.2.8 screenshots look wonderful. Good job!

Set 1 - Picture 4. Set 2 - Picture 1. Set 3 - Picture 4. Set 4 - Picture 3. Set 5 - Picture 2. Set 6 - Picture 4. Set 7 - Picture 4. Set 8 - Picture 1. Set 9 - Picture 3. Set 10 - Picture 3.

I agree with most others, I enjoy the Storm Atronach. Maybe the Ice one as well, but the Fire one is meh.

They look awesome to me. It does technically deviate from vanilla, but I think how the author stuck to the lore and how much of an improvement these are, that the deviation can be excused.

I don't think he's saying anything about someone forcing Democracy. What he's saying is that the Ukraine is already a Democracy (their actually a form of Republic) and yet they are doing very non-democratic things to quell an uprising.

SRTO seems to deviate too much from vanilla but Telvanni seems to just darken the vanilla textures. Not sure which I prefer, perhaps HRDLC.
