⚠️ Cons

If you're a lore enthusiast who reads every book you find, this mod makes the text and covers crisper. Skip if you're looking for total overhauls or gameplay tweaks—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a texture replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager—no load order worries.
