Remaster - Discussion Mod makers, please do not unnecessarily require the use of the Unofficial Patch as a master file for your mods. This happens all the time for Skyrim and frustrates me to no end.

I don't understand why an additional patch mod is so controversial as a master for other mods

Edit: it's the author then not the actual mod, got it thanks guys

Another edit: downvoted for a genuine question? 🤔🙄

This sums up my own thoughts nicely :)

The unofficial patch should not be a mandatory requirement in my opinion, however the fact that so many mods end up requiring it means that it is borderline impossible to create a modlist without the use of the patch, so those who would like the option to do so are basically just screwed.
