QOL For Every Single Playthrough
I use these mods on pretty much every single playthrough I have ever done. They do not change theme, or add excessive or deep mechanics: They simply make the game better (in my opinion).
Low on content, high on satisfaction.
There are many more that could fit this list, but I find myself using these no matter what type of game I want to play, from a Futuristic CE playthrough to a Medieval High Fantasy run.
Saving this mostly for myself, but I hope others can use it too.
