What game is improved the most by mods? (beehaw.org)

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?

Yeah, getting some cheat mods made Witcher 1 and 2 much more playable. The inventory UI in the second game was from the dark ages of Xbox 360 UI design so having infinite inventory space allowed me to ignore it. I assume it'll be the same type of deal with the third game once I finally get around to it.

Definitely Witcher 1 needed the mods. I pretty much got this genie mod that awarded endgame armor and weapons and stats , so I slapped my way through the story. Otherwise it was this strange rhythm game to slog through. 2 was a much needed upgrade and all I did was farm nekkers in a cave in the early chapters to lessen the load later on.

The genie mod is great. Would recommend.

Genie mod that provided the teleportation scrolls cut down on so much backtracking in Witcher 1.
