How To: Using the Skyrim Steam Workshop to Install Mods

SteamFirst: One of the more popular games on Steam, Skyrim has arguably some of the coolest, oddest, and best looking mods you can install. You may not know this but installing and using mods can be done right from the Steam Store. We show you how in our latest how to: installing mods for Skyrim from the Steam Store.Our guide will be simple and easy. We will show you where you can find mods, read about them, check out the latest updates and which ones are the most popular and easily install whichever ones you would like to try. The workshop is full of user created content such as graphic enhancements, new creatures, map addons and more. Just an FYI, all mods are technically beta whether fully tested and working or not, so try them at your own risk.

Even though the Steam Workshop is easy to use, I infinitely prefer using the Nexus Mod Manager for Skyrim modding. There are a lot more mods to choose from on the Nexus site.

Xristo3740d ago

Totally agree. I prefer Nexus so much that I have a lifetime sub for premium servers. Like you said, there are more mods on the Nexus site. This may be due to the size limit cap Steam Workshop has for mods. Last time I checked it was still a 100mb limit. That sucks for games like Morrowind/Oblivion/Skyrim.

LostPotato3741d ago

I agree with you.

I have been using the Nexus every since Morrowind came out.It's also nice to have options instead of just using Steam for mods.

I'm Replaying Skyrim (again), and So Should You

Replaying Skyrim after 13 years is a reminder of the progress made in western RPGs over the last decade, but also what's been lost.

anast21d ago

I tried, but it's a poorly made game that insults its customers.

lucian22921d ago

nah, only mods make it decent, and even then it's bad, and this is after i modded for at least 3 years

Nittdarko21d ago

Funnily enough, I'm about to play it for the first time in VR with 1000 mods to make the game playable, as is the Bethesda way

"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!

How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera

And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

Loved Alpha Protocol in all it's glorious jank. Great game.

SimpleSlave21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.

Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.

Pity.
