For SE at least I think there's a mod that let's you dial down the survival bits to your liking. Pretty sure I got it at some point but... mess...

Thought I'd try and do that massive ESO update while doing a bit of painting.
Not my best idea.
ArtRage kept freezing mid-brushstroke. Then it locked up and crashed. (Thankfully I knew it was coming and saved! )
Then the installer stopped responding for a bit. ArtRage wouldn't load in again.
Then I managed to pause the installer to let ArtRage run just to make sure it had saved correctly.
It had. Phew.
All that seems like a lifetime ago yet I've still got another 75GB to go.

Oh, Val, I think I need you to remind me. I actually looked it up but don't feel any wiser. What exactly is the difference between Skyrim SE and AE again? I think maybe there's no difference at all anymore, but I'm not sure. And I was confused when Steam gave me the option to install both and I chose to install AE, but it also installed SE from the cloud, I think, and it seems it's SE I'm actually playing... Steam has two folders with largely the same content but only one play option which seems like a waste of space and nothing more

Anyway Wrye Bash is definitely going by what I have in the SE folder. I think. Definitely maybe. At least it's where CK seems to get it's stuff.

Today I think I have fixed a couple of things that had issues previously. Well, one thing had issues (I think it was missing BFSflags or whatsit, I'm not sure since it was a while since I worked on these things) and one thing was new. And I found why some markers seemed connected to things they shouldn't be although I still have one item to locate or figure out why it's connected...

My new character is almost ready to buy Breezehome - she just needs to rob a few more bandits... and I decided this was a "great" opportunity to use my Breezehome mod. Which I never finished. So I am now working on that, in the hope that I'll able to play more, soon...

I didn't think you had AE. That's the more expensive one.
AE has all the Creation Club content whereas SE just has a few of them like Saints And Seducers and ...erm.. some other stuff.
I think.

EDIT: And fishing!

Played a bit of Fallout 4 and Dogmeat was playing with his teddy bear again.

 

Meanwhile I wish the robot that I programmed to guard me would stop shouting "Exterminate!" behind my back.
And it didn't do very well with that guarding cos I still had to kill all the Feral Ghouls myself.

I then saw something from a distance that almost looked like one of those Skyrim giants. A radioactive one, obviously.
After a sneaky quicksave I went to investigate and the end result was entirely expected.
I reloaded and avoided.
