start the test compression with SKYRIM have a lot mods and tools to extract and reencode the files.
I dont like touch the quality of games because is the essence of game. Repacker compress the textures and the game have some missing textures.

crunch: its a tool to compress unpacked textures(lossy compression).

Some people use ogg to reencode audio, but I opus codec have more quality and equal or less weigth than ogg.

in some games bik videos have 2 or 5 audios depends how many language.

my advice use lossless compression.
