//Now includes a list with recommended mods for an entirely new game experience!
I'm going to start my second playthrough in a week. NV is a great game, the only problem I have is: Despite the dlc's and mod's, I know all the content. The core issue is, exploration and progression are my main motivations for playing games like this, hence I need more content.
Therefore, I'll buy the dlc's and download some mods. But which mods? See my choice below.
If you know more great "must haves", feel free to share with me!
