I know most of the Bethesda RPGs have massive mod support, and there's games like Minecraft that have more mods than anyone can imagine. I would consider those games pretty playable in their vanilla states. Would you say there are any games that were "saved" by modding? Or that are still kept alive by thriving modding communities? What are some of your favorite mods?

I really needed mods for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt or I would have probably never finished the main story.

I had to get the mods that would autoloot and give unlimited inventory space, otherwise I would have minmaxed the game to tediousness by spamming pick-up and sorting through loot to keep the weight limit.

After getting the mods I could just focus on the story and gameplay without worrying if I'd maximised all my looting.

Wow, I never thought of this. I couldn’t ever get really into W3, despite loving the setting/story/basic gameplay. Also loved the Netflix series. But mods might make me enjoy it.
