The second option is suitable for other launchers.
Changing the difficulty slider

Gameplay mods
Not all gameplay mechanics inherent in most open-world games have migrated to the title. Thanks to the proposed mods, you can slightly supplement the project with new pleasant functions.
Photo mode
Photo mode is added to almost every open-world game, but Bethesda's brainchild does not have it. Now you can not only ire the beauty of Cyrodiil, but also capture it as a keepsake.
Burning NPCs
Fire in the game only causes damage and has no additional effects. Thanks to a fan add-on, all objects, including NPCs, can realistically catch fire when in with flames.

Interface mods
The suggested mods affect the visual style from the first person, slightly changing it or removing it altogether for greater immersion in the game.

Changes the standard interface a little: makes the com 60% smaller, moves the health, stamina and mana bars, and reduces the status icons.
Hide interface and effects
Allows you to remove unnecessary parts of the interface and disable unnecessary effects. If desired, it is possible to completely remove all icons and tips in the game.
Remove com
Completely removes the com, but, unlike the functionality of the previous mod, here the names of locations are still displayed when approaching them.
Remove hit marker
When dealing damage to an enemy, a hit marker is no longer displayed.
Load Capacity Mods
They can be considered not entirely fair, as they simplify the main mechanics of the game. Use the proposed changes to change the maximum carry weight, as well as the mass of some items.
On the carried weight
Increases the carrying capacity and allows you to carry an infinite amount of loot. Due to the peculiarities of the engine, it is impossible to change the weight parameter, so the mod works in a different way: it changes the mass of lockpicks to -150, which allows you to independently control the values. The more of these items in your pocket, the greater the carrying capacity.
Light arrows
Arrows don't weigh anything else in the game, carry them around as much as you like. It doesn't currently work with enchanted or magical items, but the author promises to add such a setting in the future.
The lightest objects
Adds an amulet that, when used, causes all items in the inventory to weigh nothing. Also, scales with negative mass appear in the open world, increasing the character's carrying capacity.
