Should You Mod Fallout 4? 7 Basic Steps to Modding

With so many new people starting their modding journey I felt its my responsibility to help make the process a little easier and with a little less pain. Reflecting on all the issues I have had throughout the years I have made this video into two major parts. The 7 Steps to Modding, and The "Do's and Dont's" of modding/which mods are safe to mix and which might be more trouble than its worth!

This isnt as much of a modding tutorial as it is a general guide to help you get the most out of your mods, especially when building a substantial modlist. I also have a guide for easy modding of Fallout 4 if you want to skip the bs and get right into it!
