✅ Pros

  • Huge community trust with 7,532 endorsements and 352k downloads

  • UI mods can break with game updates, and there's no mention of compatibility with the latest Starfield version
  • If you're on Xbox or prefer controller, this is PC-only, so console players are out of luck

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle installation and updates—it'll save you headaches when the game patches.
  • Check the mod's posts section for any known issues with the latest Starfield update before installing.
  • If you're new to modding, back up your saves just in case, but UI mods like this are generally safe.
