I've had to give up on EasyNPC. I try and try and try and I either get non-specific crashes, or, once I get it to finally compress into one mod, I'll end up with random face colorization issues, missing eye textures, or other weirdo glitches.
I love the idea of EasyNPC so much but I've had to set it aside and accept that I don't have the energy to master the arcane knowledge necessary to combine NPC overhauls. I wish they'd at least change the mod name to AdvancedNPC.
This thread is great. I love how people are arguing against deleting your Reddit history by comparing their own history to the content in the Library of Alexandria. The Reddit hive mind and subreddit echo chamber had a lasting effect, it seems.
