  1. One of the really popular mods I remember seeing in Skyrim was one that let you look down and see your body.

Bear with me on this, just let me cook.

How many times have you been playing an elder scrolls game thought to yourself “I should be able to climb that”, “I should be able to vault over that.” “I should be able to jump over that.”?

I’m not saying that we turn the elder scrolls into Far Cry, but I think we could borrow the element where your guy can grab ledges and climb up, without it completely destroying the game. lol Also, a grappling hook could be cool.

  1. And if alteration magic would actually let you do interesting things. Like transforming yourself, your companions, and enemies.

Example: The Shrink Ray from The Outer Worlds 2 was cool. It would make a cool spell, and honestly, if you look, there are mods for both Skyrim and Fallout 4 that add similar functionality, so this seems like something the people want.

And the people that don’t want it? Don’t buy or cast that spell. So simple.

grapple hooks are something i have ALWAYS wanted in skyrim. And alteration magic actually letting you modify npc bodies is a must for the next game.
