Currently Playing: S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 : 20 Mods I can't Play without Already

After finishing a 100% vanilla playthrough, it was time to try some of the numerous mods already available for the game. A couple of them are improving the experience A LOT, so here's what I've been using so far and can't imagine playing the game without already! How to install Mods: Extract the mod files (.pak .utoc .ucas) in the ~mods folder found in: Steam: ...\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Heart of Chornobyl\Stalker2\Content\Paks\~mods Gamepass: ...\S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Heart of Chornobyl (Windows)\Content\Stalker2\Content\Paks\~mods If the folder "~mods" doesn't exist, just create one.
