I was thinking about how I remember Maxis fondly, and I got to wondering what other people’s experiences were like!
Is your favorite still around? Are they still the same, or did they “change directions under new management?”

Any recommendations for mods? I’m putting together a new build for it ahead of my semi-annual replay of the trilogy
Yeah, definitely!
I’ll skip the skins, because I assume you’ll want to pick your own that fit your tastes, but you can find all of these at NexusMods. Some of my favorites are:
- Speed Launch
- 60 fps in cutscenes
- No fall damage
- Infinite Respec Amulet
- Party At The Winter Palace
- Shorter War Table Missions (75%)
- Party Banter Time (5-10min)
- All Bard songs for CC Music
- Stay still in CC - Natural Edition
- Face Ash Begone
- Bugs Be Gone
- Skills Enhanced by NinjaReborn
- Inventory Capacity
You’ll also need Frosty Mod Manager to set all those up (they seem to work for me in the order I listed) and Frosty Fix.
- Set up the mods and load order in FrostyMM, and close.
- Launch Frosty Fix.
- Choose the profile/pack you want.
- Mash go.
- FrostyMM should open back up.
- Open the pack you created.
- The game should launch automatically with the mods correctly enabled.
All these mods feel “vanilla-ish” and shouldn’t spoil the original experience to any significant degree.
