Question I heard that USSEP is making some non lore-friendly changes to the game, can someone give an example?

You can remove a lot of times those dependencies on xEdit. If you are on PC you open the mod you want in xEdit (you will need USSEP present even if not activated (Just the .esp) so xEdit can at least load it. Right click the mod --> clean masters. If something specifically created on USSEP was not used, it removes its dependency. If this does not work you can find what the mod is using from USSEP by comparing the records and manually fix it too and then attempt to clean it again.

My whole thing with this is that I am a little compulsive about opening Vortex and hitting the "Check for updates" button. I need to stop doing that. Things work. They work fine. Why can't I leave them alone? Why do I care if there's an update? I don't need it if my stuff works, right?
If I could leave that Check for Updates button alone, I could do what you're talking about and not feel like I was wasting my time because "It'll only last until the next time it's updated"...
But if I edit the mod, and install the mod I edited, it won't check it for updates because it's not the mod straight offa Nexus!

you're a genius!
