Good ideas and I absolutely agree. I'd love to see a mod that did most of these things.

Btw, notice that if you combine the Alternate Starting Dungeon mod and combine it with the No Main Quest mod you'll get something that at least vaguely looks like this :D

However, this is really the tail end of another mod that has been talked about before but I'm not sure if is curretnly possible, which is to mod the character creation. All these things could be starting questions that built your background.

I know this is not a new topic, but I am really interested in being able to choose which Town I begin the game in - this would completely change the narrative text of course, but there are Mods that already do that, like Random Dungeon Starting Mod, and toggling Start Outside Privateer Hold option, etc.

Funnily enough, a couple months ago I was working on an edit of Jay_H's Starting Dungeon Randomizer which, instead of sending you to a random dungeon, would have a random chance to send you to a dungeon, a tavern, a guild, a palace, a shop, or a random house, with some random flavor text in you log about how you got there (e.g., if the game decided to send you to a house, it would choose between putting in your log that you were there to visit a dying relative, or that you had been robbed while travelling and the house's owner had found you and nourished back to health, etc.), but had to give up on it because for some reason when the quest system tries to teleport you to anywhere other than a dungeon you just appear in a black void.
