Default Is it worth it?

I lost interest with SH5 when it was released to such dismal reviews but I hear that the game has gotten better,is this because of MODS or game patches?
Would it be worth buying the game now and if so what MODS would you guys recommend using..

Thanks

are you really asking if a game you can buy for $10 is worth it?


YES

just dont buy it from steam whatever you do and it would be best to get the game on disk

Because of all the genious modders here, SH5 has become extremly enjoyable

I played all the SH series, but my best fun so far is with SH5 modded

I totally understand your not wanting to buy SH5. I held out a year and a half after release just to be sure most of the issues would be worked out (while also waiting to buy a better computer). I felt burned with 10 month build up to SH3...to be disappointed. Skipped on SH4....then promised I'd wait at least a month or two after release to decide to get the game based on UBI's slightly negative rep (but hey, they are the only ones who build these sims anymore).

Bottom line.....Some would argue SH3 is better game play with GWX mod. SH5 def looks better and to me is just as good with extensive personalized modding (gone are the days of the super mod apparently).....the Open Horizons II and the TDW User Interface Mod are must haves IMHO. Like Webster said ...def worth more than $10 if you Mod this game.
