Starfield's maps are not defensible, but fans are already starting to fix them.

It is a little mystifying that they continue to be so bad at maps across so many games.

They're just bad at UI in general. Every one of their RPGs end up with a UI mod that makes their terrible menus not only useable, but infinitely better than the crap they made.

Yeah I'm already running about half a dozen UI mods on Starfield and it makes the game a hell of a lot better!

StarUI: https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/773

Achievement Enabler: https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/252 (this does require an external dll, use at your own risk)

I was mainly after a mod that would show how much of an item I have in my inventory when buying. This mod does that and more. The achievement mod just keeps achievement enabled with mods installed.

if you like how those mods are opinionated. I personally hate SkyUI as it's hideous and would take the base game anyday.

Skyrim needed UI mods, and to wit, still needs UI mods, despite being re-released like 15 times with limitless opportunities to improve basically anything - instead they focused on high resolution textures, which is something that the fanbase basically already makes on launch week.

Weren't the anniversary texture packs (or special edition, forge when they got introduced) so poorly optimized most guides reccomend against using them over moder developed ones? Been awhile since I've modded akyrim, could be thinking of Fallout 4.

Why waste time and money if the customers fix it?
