So I'm thinking of replaying Skyrim, although this time starting with a few mods to make it a bit more interesting/look better. I'm mainly looking for mods that are semi lore-friendly. I'm interested in pretty much all sorts of mods from new locations to alternate quest. Below are some of the ones that I'm adding.

Somber EMB
SkyUI
Whiterun Outskirts Market
Solitude Docks District
Elvenwood
Syerscote
Skyrim's Unique Treasures
Skyrim School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

So does anyone else know of any must-have mods? Also, have a Skyrim.

I don't give two shits about achievements, plus I have almost all of them already.

Nope, that happens only for Fallout 3 because it's using Games For Windows Live, and only if you want to use Fallout Script Extender (most of the complex mods require FOSE).

Anyway, I'll post some mods later on when I have more time.

I think the nude mod added some interesting custom made stalking sidequests.

The Skyrim Nexus forums are a good place to start. Also there's a lot of mod discussion on the PC Skyrim board on GameFAQs.

I didn't even realise that fast travel was possible apart from the carriages until about 50 hours in.

Here's my list of must haves:

Build Your Own Home
Cloaks of Skyrim - adds thousands of cloaks to Skyrim
Convenient Horses
Dragon Combat Overhaul
Dynamic Fires - allows you to put out/relight fires
Enhanced Blood Textures
Even Better Quest Objectives - makes quests a little less vague
Follower Trap Safety - stops your idiot followers from setting off traps that you just avoided
Footprints
Hunting in Skyrim - adds hunting quests and a hunter's guild, skins are more valuable
I Yield, I Yield - NPC's actually yield
Lootable crates - makes a lot of crates lootable, it's nice
Moonpath to Elsweyr - I can't believe this one isn't already on your list!!
No Spinning Death Animation - gets rid of the dumb spinning and falling deaths
Rainbows
Realistic Crime Radius - Stole something in Whiterun? Someone halfway to Markarth will no longer know about it.
Realistic Ragdolls and Force
Run For Your Lives! - Villagers run from dragons
Shooting Stars
Windy Skyrim - Makes all of the trees blow in the wind, minimal FPS hit

I tried not to make it too long, and tried to explain the more vague ones. I also realize that some of these don't exactly fit your description, but they make the game a lot more immersive.

All of these can be found on the Nexus.

I have a question for you, with the mod "I yield", imagine that a bandit yields while fighting me and a guard, can I still kill him afterwards, without suffering the consequences of attacking a non violent NPC in front of a guard?

Also, The cloaks mod, does it count as a new piece of clothing? Or does it replace anything else?
