Chromatic Aberration Remover v1.1
Ever wondered why the edges of objects in the game are a little blurry, with a slightly reddish-bluish outline? It's called chromatic aberration and it's disgusting. This graphical effect was conceived to mimic the imperfections of real cameras and create a more cinematic feel. It worked well in games like Alien Isolation and The Order 1886, but frankly, there is no point in using this technology in The Outer Worlds.
The game has a lot of chromatic aberration, so it's rather strange to see that this aspect of the visuals can't be turned off in the settings. The Chromatic Aberration Remover mod fixes this issue.
This is a simple file change to remove the chromatic aberration from the game. It's an effect that adds the colour distortion to the edges of objects. It's a horrible effect and I don't understand why more and more people are using it.

Terraformed ReShade
There are plenty of reshades for The Outer Worlds, but Terraformed ReShade is the most popular by a huge margin, and it's easy to see why. Described as giving the game a new level of depth, color and graphical effects, it fully lives up to these words, increasing the detail of the textures.
Obsidian_ReShade
On the other hand, some modders have been working to make The Outer Worlds look even more vibrant and lively than it originally was. The Obsidian ReShade mod does just that, improving colors, sharpening, and rendering. This mod was created by user Jb0238177 who also recommends increasing the gamma
The Outer Worlds Mod - Minimal HUD 1.02
This mod turns off everything in the HUD except your HP bar, your crosshair (it cant be turned off or it's impossible to use sniper scopes and similar), your quest location icon and some essentials. No fps loss, no bans!
Character Creator Skill Changes
Character Creator Skill Changes is another mod that allows you to transform into a powerful super being right from the start of the game. As the name suggests, it gives you full control over the base skills available at character creation, as well as the number of points.
