Description
This collection is a large group of Non DLC Mods that improve the basic skyrim experience, enhance the immersiveness, and add a few features which make the game feel more fluid, less grindy, and more fun overall. There are multiple mods that work very well together adding a completely new experience to the game of skyrim, but is so similar to the style and feel of skyrim, you won't likely find yourself complaining. I hope you enjoy my shot at Vanilla + Skyrim.

Disclaimer: The first two mods in the pack are there for you if you decide you do not want to start in helgen. If you do want to go through with the vanilla skyrim story, I reccommend you unsubcribe from those two mods.
