⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Community favorite with 2,202 endorsements and over 113k downloads—clearly a trusted pick.
- Makes conversations feel less robotic, which is a huge win for roleplayers.
- Lightweight and text-only, so it won't tank your performance or cause script lag.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2020—might not be fully compatible with the latest Skyrim patches or AE.
- Only covers 250 lines, so you'll still see some vanilla dialogue in less common conversations.
- No official patches or compatibility notes for other dialogue mods, so you might need to test load order yourself.
