In a recent keynote at Digital Brighton 2020 by Bethesda developer and executive producer Todd Howard, Howard expressed the corporation's gratitude for the modding community, which has helped its games endure long beyond their release.

This only furthered Skyrim's replay value because a seemingly infinite number of mods allowed players to do everything and anything their hearts desired within the world.

It also expanded on its foliage rendering system, allowing developers to create larger areas of background foliage while granting more freedom for animation.
