but that's the game!
you reinstall the game after a few years
boot it up
think to yourself "hmm, this really needs mods"
you spend 2-5 hours scrolling through nexus
then another hour or 2 fixing load order, conflicts, etc.
then you boot it up again
"hell yeah, this is rad now!"
never launch it again
then uninstall it a month later

I spent years doing that with Morrowind before I wised up. I actually download OpenMW recently just to take a look, and had the most "been there, done that" feeling ever from playing a game. I gave up on Bethesda after Skyrim and never looked back, and my gaming life became all the better for it.
roughly the experience i've had every time I've tried to get back into modded Skyrim years after spending untold hours with modded 32-bit Skyrim. Wabbajack's automated modlists are the only reason I attempt to try, and when i initially start a game, my reactions are 1) I don't recognize anything in this game now wtf and 2) damn, my mid-spec laptop from half a decade back just isn't good enough.
Skyrim modding is honestly too labyrinthine in posdible scope for me now to do much manual adding and tinkering
