Yeah, although i would like it if they made better games in the first place, i like how mods make it way more configurable with exactly what and how you want to fix things.
Don't like the god awful combat? There are mods that can make it way closer to dark souls
Dont like dark souls either? There are mods to make it way closer to [insert other game here]
Do you hate the kinda janky and overly forgiving stealth system? There are mods to make it way closer to thief
Do you hate how magic is fucking terrible? There are an enormous amount of mods to add spells, rebalance spells, make magic hilariously OP, make magic rare....
Are you an enormous immersion monkey who just wants to rp walk through the world like some kinda weirdo? That's half my goddamn load order
But I understand why people don't see all that as a good thing, it is a fuckton of extra work to get the game just how you want it
i think vanilla is fine. never messed with mods. but the big appeal to me is the open world. i like exploring stuff, foightin' bandits and other baddies, reading the books (also my favorite part of morrowind!), getting loot (tho none of it is particularly interesting). it's brainless entertainment and i love it

I like the weird background lore of the elder scrolls, but my main draw is that i can turn it into much better games with mods, especially skyrim
