I want to share a dream/plan I came up:
The only reason why I would play on a PC are mods and mods might be more amazing than you may think because they have the ability to change or modify a game you play with someoneelse's vison or feature rather than the developers.
But my dream plan is that I will:
1. I will wait for a certain game I want to mod is on sale.
2. Then I will find a PC I could use to play that game.
3. Use mods that I want to use from Nexus to mod the crap out of that game if they work.
Also, I have been checking mods on Nexus, and I am concered if these mods will be complicated or tiresome to properly implement into the game, espically with PC requirely a lot of computer maintiance, and the problem of mods being incompatible with other mods.
I found a "mod organizer", I wondering if it will work with most of the mods I tracked, and make mod using easier?
edit: I tracked over 400 mods! I hope I can get away with all the follwer mods I tracked!

If I'm not mistaken, on the steam workshop there are mod packs that are compatible with each other. If you want mod madness, I suggest XCOM 2: War of the Chosen. There are a ton of cosmetic, enemy, mission and improvement mods that will give you countless hours of fun. Plus, it's a really good game

Better build a solid pc if you're going to run over 400 mods at once.

Mods aren’t even that great Playing on PC is a huge upgrade in every way highest graphic settings, solid 144fps on Destiny there really is no reason to play games on anything else, there is absolutely nothing console does better

There's this thing that makes installing mods feom Nexus easy. Of course I'm not at my computer, nor have i played Skyrim or Fallout 4 in awhile to actually remember the name of said thing.

That's what first gotten me into buying a PC, but it's evolved into much more than that. Most mods are very simple 2-4 click procedures, but getting ENB's or the script extender can get a little cumbersome at times.

Well best use an SSD for all that. It will reduce loading and speed things up. And be sure to have a pc that can handle at least 4k. A lot of mod creators default to textures higher than 2k. I recommend an AMD proc build with 8GB RAM and 8GB VRAM. For an SSD I've been using Patriot. They are cheap and have good performance.

Playing on PC requires barely any maintenance at all.

Couple things about modding: 1. You can just use the nexus mod organizer it’s stupidly easily but if you still have trouble hit up YouTube I would recommend Gopher he explains it pretty well. 2. As for the number of mods.... you better have a neatly computer to install 400 mods. Also most mods should play nicely together unless they change or add some to the world in the same location. Or just read the description page it should tell you what will mostly conflict with it You’ll need SKSE and I highly recommend LOOT SKSE is needed for most mods and LOOT will organize your mods in what it thinks is the best load order.

community made games/maps/modes is most of what is being played right now. just look at all trending games. counter strike and team fortress? both half life mods dota / lol? wc3 funmap any br game? arma mod

I'd reccomend just using nexus mod manager. It works fine and makes life easier.
