I did some downloading from here yesterday. Got over 9 mods installed and gave them a test run. Most of them did not offer much besides new looks, items or monster visuals. But i have choosen 3 most interesting and maybe promising ones.

1. Hades underworld.
D2SE compatible. You can use plugy stash and you can restat stats/skills if you edit plugy.ini file. Chars have almost same skills as original game, but some of them are randomly switched between classes, for example barb gets fire golem, meteor, fire bolt, amazon gets druids' morph, ect. For more info you can search here and there are some youtube videos. They show secret recipes how you can get runes, items with cubing few pots.

2. Kingdom of Tenai
No plugy, no restat. Really weird mod but also might be addicted in some ways. Skills are totally different. Here is FAQ about it and it should help you start. At start you get orb and 3 ingredients - choose one and get some bonuses. Kinda like subclass. Your usuall skills are gone and you get to choose passives instead, things like speeds, resists, absorbs, ect. Skills are sold at npc and can be socketed in socks. Cubing mana pots in cube might give you something, but it's a secret :D Hp/Mp orbs are ugly dragons and no way to tell how exactly points are left without moving mouse over. Most annoying thing so far.

3. Requiem of sorrow
No restat, but got plugy even though it shows no option at d2se window. All seven classes get 4th skill tree - passives and few new skills with original ones. You get starting charm with 4 ingredients to cube at lvl 1, 25, 50, 75 and 100. Max lvl is increased and /players are up to 127 ! More info - here. Plus game constatly sells Soj to mercs itself.

Hades underworld.
Act 1 almost done. As previous post had youtube video complaining about mobs/drops/ect. I can confirm most of it. Starting might be rough if you play untwinked and regular. But in dark marsh area near tower of countess you kill mob and he drops 6 pieces of set. It gets even worse in tamoe area - it's a cow area. Most of the caves in act 1 are filled with Diablos, cows, unique mobs. Drops are so disbanalced, no words to discrabe, just check pictures below.
Gameplay - with plugy you get free restats in both skills and stats. Also each lvl gives you 2 skill points and 5 stats. Max skill lvl is 20. You get an easy chance to try all builds at any moment.

Not enough data to compare Chaos Empire with mods i tried so far. You post no pics, no videos. You only give feedback like "cancer to install", "best mod", "crap, shit, ect". Youtube videos don't help much, they show op chars rek uber tristram.

On topic for Hades underworld, i got to lvl 40 in act1 doing cows. Frenzy barb is finally doing the things he suppose to do - looking badass with two weapons and killing stuff. Act 2 is a joke now, lvl too high to get xp, everything dies in a hit, fire golems have aoe dmg similar to apocalypse and all caves are filled with Diablos.
