⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge download count (99,700) shows it's a go-to for players wanting more background options.
- 1,414 endorsements from the community—people are happy with it.
- Recent update (October 2024) means it's likely compatible with current game patches.
👎 Cons
- Description is vague—doesn't list exactly which backgrounds are added, so you might not know if your favorite is included.
- No install instructions or requirements listed, so you're on your own for setup.
- Only adds backgrounds, not new mechanics or story content—if you want gameplay changes, this won't deliver.
