XP4T - Games Improved by Fan Patches

Guy Cole of XP4T published a new article about three games that were improved by Fan Patches. The first game he talks about is The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall.

Take, for example, Daggerfall, the second in Bethesda’s magnificent Elder Scrolls series. Released in August 1996 after two years’ development, Daggerfall employed Bethesda’s own XnGine, one of the first truly 3D game engines, to let us roam around the Hammerfell and High Rock provinces of Tamriel.

His second game is the Gothic series, and the community patches.

Gothic 3 Enhanced Edition, as it’s known with the CP installed, is an almost night-and-day experience compared to the vanilla game. It’s an example of fan patching that not only repairs the flaws in the base game, but actually improves the entire thing by a whole new order of magnitude.

And his third game is of course Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines.

No discussion of fan patching would be complete without a mention of Troika Games’ legendary Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines, which since its 2004 release has had ten years of continuous development by the community. The Unofficial Patch 9.0 from 2014 is, cumulatively, older than my kids, and has been around almost as long as I’ve been married. (It’s probably had more work put into it than my marriage has too, but hey ho).

What's the Daggerfall's best (bestest) graphic mod out there ? Is there a video showcasing it ?
