Planning to get back into the game, but mod it. Recommendations?

[Khaziir Everflight]

As the title says, i want to play this game again, but mod it a fair bit.
What mods would y'all say are "must have" in any mod-list?

I mainly want to expand the game play, like with the bounty hunting and jobs mod mods and so on.
No idea how much i'll mod graphically, tho, if at all, since i haven't tested my vanilla performance with my current PC yet (Ryzen 7 5800X, RTX3060 12GB variant and 32GB of ram at 1440p with up to 120FPS/Hz), but feel free to recommend graphical mods aswell, if you think they are to be considered no matter what.

Modding is a bannable offense, due to the rampant misuse of mods in online lobbies.

Yeah, I am aware that modding in online is a big no-go... but i am not interested in online in any way either way, seeing how it's overrun with cheaters and generally abandoned essentially, and only in story-mode, where it is none of anyone's business if i mod or not.

You can play Online with just your self or invite your friends into a Private Session :

If you watch this Video & Follow it's instructions then you can have a Private Session in RDR2 Online & your friends can join as well as not have to deal with Other players at all :

But since you plan to Mod then you can stay in Single player mode, Just giving you info as to being able to play in your own Private Online Session that if you wan't you can play with your personal friends without the the hassle of cheaters or harassment from random PK Players.

If you decide to use the Online mode then make sure to not use mods or any cheat software ( When Online cause then the game will ban you i think ).

I have used the file i mentioned for Hr's and haven't seen or ran into any other player. The only thing is that if you do decide to play Online, there is a story mode that requires 2 or more members to do it cause it won't let you do it alone even though it would have been nice if one could do it alone if one wanted to but unfortunately it doesn't let you.

Anyways just gave ya the info incase someday you decide to play online with your buddy's. Just make sure to follow the instructions properly so you can have your very own private online game session.

Like I said, I have ZERO interest in online, no matter if in private servers or public servers. Just like in GTA 5, it is absolutely and utterly irrelevant for me, hence me mentioning that i want to play modded story mode only.

The one must-have for me is the one that lets you fish immediately, so I can go enjoy myself in the world right away without having to bother with the annoying questline, and ingrates at my camp.

I wish there was an option or a mod for the game in general to disable the story all
together so you can just wander and explore the world and just be your
own character, then even better would be able to customize your character from
the start like on the online.
There was a mod that was doing this but its broke from what i understand
and the modder that worked on it dont work on it anymore, at least not that i know of.

Now THAT is the mod I want. And I want the same mod for Witcher, Cyberpunk, GTA 5, and Starfield.
