As far as Starfield has come in the year since its launch, the game's community is still going out of its way to make it even better with some incredible mods that bring important NPCs to life. A problem that's present in nearly every Bethesda RPG, non-playable characters tend to have a lack of personality, simply moving around the world and serving as signposts for various quests. One dedicated fan decided to fix this issue their way by implementing a mod that gives key figures more to do than simply stand around.
Over on Nexus Mods, creator FlippingEggs shared their appropriately titled "NPCs Have Routines And Stores Have Schedules" mod which does what it says on the tin, bringing 36 named characters to life with more variety than ever before. The mod provides key NPCs with their own daily schedules, making the universe feel more realistic and alive as players are forced to learn characters' behaviors rather than just following a marker on a map. The add-on also makes a crucial change to vendors which may seem insignificant but goes a long way to creating a more immersive experience.
A minor issue that managed to irk many Starfield...
