I love me some Skyrim but, in 2023, it's really starting to show its age. For me, it's the clunky walk animations, and quirky pathing (think robot walk into walls) that really sticks out, but there are other issues running the gamut from graphics to gameplay. Luckily for us, the game is imminently moddable so, surely, for anything that looks creaky to modern eyes, there has to be a mod for that.

So let me see some of your favorite mods to make Skyrim look and play like something out of the 2020s.

Something that has been on my mind for quite some time, and that I would consider learning to mod just to make it happen would be discretizing the potion and enchantment system. By that I mean that instead of having the ability of making potions that restore 50 health, 51, 52, etc., depending on how high your alchemy, you would only have discrete values, eg. 25, 50, 75, 100, 125..., or whatever you choose, and you jump from one to the next instead of going through all the intermediate integer values.

That would avoid a lot of inventory clutter that you get from making potions and leveling alchemy in the process. I remember I've seen a mod that does this once, but it didn't seem very active and updated.
