I didn't mess with mods in EA, but I'm tempted to give a few a try with full release. Specifically camera mods to start. Anyone using any mods at this point, and any you recommend or advise steering clear of? Thanks!

EDIT: I don't see anyone really using anything yet, so I'm going to hold off myself. I don't know enough about it to feel confident I won't jack up my game. Still hope to get some positive feedback regarding mods after release by someone here, so if you do use any and are happy with them, please do let us know!

Doing vanilla right now, will probably mod for later playthroughs. Maybe by the time I finish (still in act 1) there will be more interesting mods.

Hoping for mods that fix the elf faces. There's only 2 that are good across male and female. The rest...idk, it's like the faces are too big for their heads and they don't really look like elves. One of the male elf faces has no forehead and a super square jaw and chin. He looks like a toad. Half elves look more like a traditional elf.

Beyond that I'm not sure. Maybe giving people 2 bonus actions like some rule sets do or something. I feel like early game, you don't have enough actions. And if you dont go fighter/barbarian. You never get those extra actions. It's fine in table top, but I feel in a videogame it's not enough actions? Though I'm starting to get over that one. I have to see what mods are available and what interests me.

I know there is a camera mod and it is very tempting to install it. The camera is kind of awkward at times, especially if your trying to pan over a cliff that's higher than you. But I didn't see any evidence that the mod fixes my gripes with the camera.
