Dark Souls Remastered Now Has a New Texture Overhaul Mod
https://www.dsogaming.com/mods/dark-souls-remastered-now-has-a-new-texture-overhaul-mod/
Modder ‘fromsoftserve’ has released a new HD Texture Pack for Dark Souls Remastered. This pack upgrades almost every texture in the game with a higher resolution version.
The modder has used AI tools in order to upscale the original textures. Moreover, he used the Prepare to Die Edition textures as the base when necessary. As fromsoftserve noted, many of the Dark Souls Remastered textures were washed out. So, by using the textures found in the Prepare to Die Edition, the game will now be more colorful and detailed.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim just got a new DLC-sized expansion mod with a fully scripted/voiced storyline
https://www.dsogaming.com/mods/the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-just-got-a-new-dlc-sized-expansion-mod-with-a-fully-scripted-voiced-storyline/
Modder ‘Cryptdick’ has just released a new DLC-sized expansion mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, called The Tempest Isle. This mod packs a fully scripted/voiced main storyline arc with multiple quests and interesting characters.
According to the modder, the mod was built to feel like a true Skyrim expansion. It’s also said to be highly immersive and lore-accurate. Moreover, it has hand-sculpted worldspace and various dungeons to explore and loot. Players can also expect to find new items, spells, enemy variants, environment objects, and more. So, this is pretty much a full free DLC. It will most likely be rough around the edges, but it’s cool nonetheless. At least in my opinion.
>> You’ll find an over 2 minutes trailer of the mod in the article.
