Review of Moon and Star mod (non-spoiler version)
Spoiler-free review of the Moon and Star mod, which I'm running as part of Kendeshel's Legacy of the Dragonborn playthrough. Mostly enjoyed it, but found it kind of flimsy and too short. Not sorry I tried it, but not likely to play it again (though I reserve the right to change my mind here). Spoiler review to come with Kendeshel's next post.
