New The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Mod adds high-quality/high-polygon NPCs
https://www.dsogaming.com/mods/new-the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-mod-adds-high-quality-high-polygon-npcs/
Modder ‘ace’ has released a must-have mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition. This mod is a lore-friendly NPC Overhaul based on High Poly Head, Vanilla Hair Remake and Beards of Power. And, as you can see below, it can significantly improve the quality of the NPCs.
As the modder noted, every NPC was edited by hand. Some of them were only changed slightly while others have been resculped. Makeup edits of each NPC were adjusted and most NPCs have a much more natural look now.
>> There are only some screenshots of this mod.

The original Zelda in VR would have exploded my 6 year-old brain

A Japanese modder has managed to create something that will look simply remarkable to those of a certain age: The NES Legend of Zelda working beautifully in VR from a first-person perspective. "I feel like I'm in a dream of those days when I only knew the 8-bit graphics of the NES," writes creator Sugary Noe.
Looking at this thing, you know how they feel. Hard to credit now of course but Zelda looked amazing for the time, and the strength of its visual design is arguably best-shown by the fact that much of what this game introduced remains core to the series—including Breath of the Wild, which returned to the original's more open style.
The game was first released in 1986, and the mod is for QuestZDoom and here is being played on a Quest 2 (first spotted by Gamerant).
