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?

I had no idea the game had a modding scene. What sorta mods are out there, and what would you recommend?

I also had no idea, since mods for prior games had basically nothing, but wow, the Nexus page has a lot.

It makes me happy to hear a game that was so panned still has enough of a fan community to support a bunch of mods.

I haven't played the game myself but I'll admit I'm curious. And I don't trust the "general opinion" of reviewers anymore, really.
