What is the current state of the game

[Fat Jew]

haven't played since they dropped that pointless update, and wanted to know how stable the game is and how the modding scene is doing with this "next gen update"

any insight is much appreciated

Sucks!!! Still trying to get it to work. Lost a level 300 character. My game was heavily modded.

and never once in those 300 levels did you think to make a manual backup?

So, you didn't pay attention to when the update was going to drop over a year and a half before it actually did, and did not preserve your prior build to not update?

Your game being heavily modded is 100% likely to be the actual problem, but ... like. There were and still are plenty of ways to fix this.

If either you or the OP allowed the game to update, you need , and I mean both words "you" and "need", to go looking through your mod list and your mod organizer tools and your f4SE to get them all on the same page.

Yes, you're likely to lose your existing save. But frankly if you have left the game this long, it's easier to just start over with a completely nuked from orbit fresh install with no mods until you've re-researched and correctly updated those.

i knew this update was coming so i stopped steam from doing automatic updates, and ive still yet to update the game but i mainly ask what ive said because its been a hot minute since ive played and wanted to know what people are doing, are they rolling back there games or sticking to the latest patch. i kinda wanna know what people are doing and how the modding scenes been since

If you're going to mod just be careful. Some modders haven't updated their mods for the update so they may not work. Plus the update was kinda pointless anyway... they just updated a few things and that was that

yeah i really don't know why they bothered in the first place the game hadn't had updates in years and most people were fine with it, they did the same with skyrim adding anniversary edition which was also a pointless update

Most mods were never affected by the update.

Many of the mods that WERE affected, were fixed within the first couple weeks after F4SE was updated accordingly.

Many 'bigger scale' mods may still be in progress because of their own size, or scope of use, but even then they're DOING that work.

The few - very few- that may still linger that are both incompatible AND not being updated, are likely never going to be updated or were already as finished as the mod maker could get them. The best resort if you REALLY REALLY NEED one of those, is checking the list of "REQUIREMENTS" on their nexus page and seek out "mods requiring this mod" and find patches or fixes to them that are more recent.

The game itself is still obviously playable, the 12k people right now playing it are likely enjoying their updated game without issue. But all modding is 100% up to the user to research and make sure that they're either compatible by reading faq / bug reports, or 'user tolerates this much bugginess'.

I don't play with mods yet but I play on a toaster and it works great for me.

We'll see what happens when I start doing modded plays XD

not too sure about the modding scene but the game runs just fine! I've been playing quite a bit recently and 1 crash a month ago but thats about it

Working fine here with 10 mods, love the 21:9 support as well. Had a couple CTD but only on level 30 so far with my RPG requirements. There are still some bugs with radiant quests not indicating an area has been cleared despite it saying so on the map.
