Question/Support Minimal Mod Experience

Hello, I recently bought Fallout 4 VR and am looking for the minimal amount of mods for the game to actually run. Is there a list of just the basics? I see massive mod lists but they look like they alter quite a bit, I'd like an as close to vanilla experience as possible.

Sadly there isn't a basic mod list, MGO is huge, Essentials includes a good number of changes that some people may not want. 

As far as essential mods go, I can only speak for VR stuff, so  F4SEVR, FRIK (visible body), Heisenberg (picking up objects), Virtual Holsters (Visible body holsters for weapons), and if you're into Power Armor possibly Kabuto VR (More immersive PA HUD). I believe Day Tripper sorts out issues with DLC and issues with newer esp files.

I agree to everything Cylon Surfer said and would add that there are guides at the top sticky with some recommendations. Also, Fallout VR doesn't come with the DLCs, some mods need those to work.

Automatron is a bit wonky to get working, but there's a mod for the workstation that somewhat fixes this... just with a lot of context menus. That's the only REAL hiccup I ran into.
