The modding community that inevitably blossomed around 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim was eas꧋ily one of the most active and prolific hotbeds for user-generated content ever seen. And eight years later, this timeless gaming sandbox is still managing to maintain that position with a strong and enduring vigor. From to entire suites of DLC-quality content additions, the sheer volume and variety at one's disposal is nothing short of impressive.

Today, we're putting a spotlight on those mods. And not just any mods, but the two most extreme ends of the modding spectrum: humorous, joke mods that were never meant for anything more than a laugh, and massive, deeply-involved mods that alter the Skyrim experience into something almost entirely different. Keep scrolling to ﷽join us as we check out five of eachꦚ!

10 CHANGES EVERYTH🐓ING: 🍰Cutting Room Floor

Skyrim Cutting Room Floor Mod

Cutting Room Floor doesn't necessarily change "everything," but it packs so much additional content into the game that starting a new playthrough with it will definitely result in a much different experience than players are accustomed to. The best part, though, is that this is all content that was or🐭iginally intended to be in the game.

As most players likely know, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Skyrim has a lot of hidden away in the game's files. Cutting Room Floor restores and finishes an impressi🎐ve amou♈nt of this content, including quests, NPCs, locations, dialogue, and more.

9 HILARIOUSLY WEIRD: Bear Musician 🌟 𓂃

Skyrim Bear with Lute

If ever you felt like you needed a bard in tow to lend a musical and poetic flair to your unscrupulous bandit murder rampage, then♏ this is definitely 🏅the mod for you. If you were picturing said bard as a bear, anyway. And you were, weren't you?

Simple and to the point, this mod certainly can't be accused of false advertising. Installing it will provide your Dovahkiin with a spell entitled "Bear with L🏅ute," which, well, summons a bear with a lute to serenade you, or l♚ay down an epic soundtrack for your next dragon wrangling episode.

8 ܫ CHANGES EVERYTHING: Super Skyrim Bros.

Skyrim Super Skyrim Bros

Deciding whether to categorize Super Skyrim Bros. under "Hilariously Weird," or "Changes Everything" was no small task, since it effectively manages both at once. However, given that it almost turns 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Skyrim into a differe🃏n⛄t game altogether, here it sits and fits.

Though the combat still hinges on Skyrim's base mechanics, the rest is a full-on 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Mario adventure. You෴'ll venture thro﷽ugh the Mushroom Kingdom to defeat Bowser and save Princess Toadstool, all while battling classic Mario enemies, collecting coins, leaping through platforming sequences, and much, much more.

7 ꦰ HILARIOUSLY WEIRD: Macho Dragons & Really Useful Dragons 💞

Skyrim Macho Dragon and Useful Dragon

Paired because they essentially accomplish the same thing, these are by far some of the most classic and well known when it comes to the more absurd side of Skyrim modding, and with good reason.

Macho Dragons and Really Useful Dragons will swap Skyrim's entire dragon population out with Macho Man Randy Savage and Thomas the Tank Engine, respectively, complete with the relevant sound effects. You really haven't played Skyrim until you've seen the Macho Man himself unleash a gout of searing flames with a resounding "OH YEAH!"

6 CHANGES EVERYTHING: Ordinator - Perks Of Skyrimꦉ ♛

Skyrim Spellsword Image

Skyrim's perk system catches a lot of flack for altogether "dumbing down" the famously in-depth progression systems in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Elder Scrolls series, an🔴d facing facts, there's not much else to see once you've worked your൲ way through each skill tree a time or two.

Ordinator is aimed squarely at these complaints, taking Skyrim's comparatively simple perk selection and ballooning it with roughly four hundred all new perks, ope♐ning up a🍃n excitingly varied array of play styles and builds. Even cooler, NPCs will also make use of these new perks, lending combat a new depth to explore and master.

5 HILARIOUSL♓Y WEIRD: Immersive Headsman 🧔

Skyrim Headsman and Headless

Did you find your imme🌺rsion shattered when the headsman, abandoning any semblance of professionalism, failed to lop off your head in the face of a dragon assault during the game's introduction? Well, worry no further, because this mod will ensure he finishes the job.

That said, it looks like the headsman's job is just to take off your head, not necessarily to kill you. And that brings us to the real payoff here - you'll continue through the game as usual afterwards, just without your head. Now that's immersive.

4 ꩵ 🔥 CHANGES EVERYTHING: Requiem

Skyrim Fighting Draugr

In a nutshell, Requiem is an overhaul mod aimed at delivering a more immersive roleplaying experience with Skyrim. The list of changes and adjustments it makes to the core game is outstandingly lengthy, and they're better experienced than they are explain🐬ed, but we'll try to hit all the big notes.

All of Skyrim's leveled content has been "deleveled," allowing for much more dangerous and realistic experience, so you'll want to think twice before taking on a pack of draugr. Skills and leveling up have been altered to be made more meaningful, the perk trees are entirely overhau🔴led, and even armor is more realistic in application.

3 ꧒ HILARIOUS🐎LY WEIRD: Crimes Against Nature

Skyrim Crimes Against Nature Mod

Sure, Skyrim offers a selection of ten distinctly different races for the player to choose f𓃲rom. But after your billionth playthrough, the conventional options might get a little stale. So why not spice up your next ve💃nture by playing as a kitten controlling a robotic human torso? Perhaps the venerable Dovahbear, or... a guy with a chair for a head.

You can do all of the above and more with Crimes Against Nature, a mod that does exactly what it says it will do. Which is commit crimes against nature vi✨a the character selection🧸 screen. All of these new and ridiculous racial selections come complete with their own unique racial powers and abilities, to boot.

2 ও CHANGES EVERYTHING: Enderal: The Shards of Order

Skyrim Enderal

If any mod on this list actually changes "everything" about 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Skyrim, it's Enderal. It's essentially an entirely new game built within Skyrim's engine. ꦰWe're talking an entirely new world, lore, NPCs (with full voice acting), spells, m𓆏echanics, skills, and a cherry on top.

Best described as awe-inspiring, there's legitimate debate to be had on whether Enderal constitutes a mod or a game in its own right. But given that it does need to operate over Skyrim, it is indeed a mod f🐲irst, t🔯hough that does understate the obvious passion and herculean effort that has gone into its development.

1 HILARIOUSLY WEIRD: Happy Fun Mode 🎐

Skyrim Happy Fun Mode

It's the family friendly, even safer-for-work, and entirely wholesome Skyrim experience that everyone's always wanted! Happy Fun Mode removes (most) of the blood and gore from Skyrim.꧋ And it proceeds to actually re💯place those blood effects with confetti, feathers, and sparkly bits.

Sure, you'll still be able to decapitate your enemies with ruthless abandon, but Happy Fun Mode will see them produce an arterial spray of pure magical joy rather than that scary, icky crimson fluid produced by your typical, 🎃less happy and less fun beheading.
