mods for a darker Skyrim SE

[lololaut95]

hello everyone,

 

after looking for a few days, and finding nothing, i would like to kindly ask your help.

 

i would love to make a more darker Skyrim for my next playthroug, and wanted to do a criminal smuggling things around, Skooma, Human, slave ecc ecc but i yet to find something. if it's possible i prefer to not install the sexlab framework since my mod setup is a bit "full"  and i'm pretty sure i will mess up 100%.

 

thank you very much

 If by darker you mean less heroic - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/77409 is probably a must. No more omniscient Skyrim citizens, who just know its stolen.

You might want to significantly ramp up stealth difficulty and punishment for stealing, thou. With vanilla stealth it makes things way too easy for thieves. 

Diabolesque decorations will certainly do for atmosphere, as would Hydragons slave girls, thou latter comes with a hefty bunch of requirements. Come to think of it, if you have few ESP slots you might have issues changing tone of your game, either gameplay wise, or atmosphericly, let alone both at the same time.
