No as a matter of fact a fair number of the mods cropping up behind Steams corporate greed driven pay wall were as a matter of fact, free as of a week ago, available on Skyrim Nexus to fulfill your modding needs and desires. Only a few of these mods are the “orange juice” you speak of.

What you don’t understand is that they didn’t co-operate in a direct manner. People used other peoples mod framework on an fair use basis. For example, one of the best armor packs for Skyrim, Immersive Armors, used the pause menu framework from the now pay walled Sky UI to handle its option menus.

Because there were mods like Skyrim Script Extender that allowed modders to push the game further and add new things that normally without the framework in place wouldn’t have been possible. Or you have Sky UI that added a very neat, well done, and PC themed menu system to Skyrim in place of the shitty console centric…

No, actually I don’t pirate games that’s the kicker. I have bought 451 games and 505 dlc items on Steam. The last game I pirated was X-Wing Alliance about 2 years ago because I couldn’t find a legitimate place to purchase it that wasn’t sketch as fuck.

Because no one is forcing you to mod for hours and hours of your time. People mod out of passion for the game they are modding. They are doing so, in their eyes and hopefully in the eyes of their contemporaries, to improve something they enjoy. I don’t make tweaks and mods for games I play because I want to make…

• The problem is that mods are too prolific and mod authors are not all knowledgeable enough for that kind of licensing to happen on the scale it needs to.
  

No his analogy was spot on when it comes to Skyrim modding. Because people made many a mod that were interdependent of each other and wouldn’t function without one another. This is the underlying issue at hand as it will kill the modding community cooperation in favor of one that doesn’t co-operate and instead…

How’s it going Gabe? I didn’t know you had a Gawker account.

But it generally causes issues due to Steam auto updating mods, which is why I stick to NMM, TES Edit, and BOSS. They aren’t as easy to use BUT they are far more flexible and are capable of fixing conflicts that you would be stuck cock in hand with if you only used Steam to download mods.

And yet again, someone who clearly doesn’t actually mod Skyrim, because if you did, you would know just how many mods are dependent on other mods, that depend on other mods to actually work. With cash on the line now those people will no longer be nearly as willing to collaborate thus killing the modding ecosystem…

I’m not going to spend shit on mods, I will just pirate them and continue to install them using NMM, TES Edit, and BOSS and go about my merry way. And then take SS’s and rub it in the douchers faces who fucking put paid mods up in the first place.

No it will create a new community of pirates, I already have plans to pirate this shit. Like fuck I will ever pay for a mod. I will DONATE to a modder but I will not pay for a mod.

It’ll be funny when I have to start pirating MODS. ffs kill me now.

Wat. Fakku is pretty great from what I have seen. (I swear its not bookmarked right on my bookmark toolbar or anything and I have never ever used it all the time)

Or lozzl- I mean a lotta futa. :|

I am with you on that. The bigger this blows the fuck up in their face the better. I honestly hope they lose a large chunk of money to this instead of profiting. Them and Bethesda both. That’s the only thing that will kill this before it can go anywhere.

Boom head shot is all I can say about your point. You have it so spot on it hurts. The only point I would like to add to your already amazing idea is to have a donate function so IF I REALLY REALLY LIKE A MOD, I can give some dosh to whoever made it. That’s it though, other than that you have the perfect point.

You mean CD Projekt Red right? Not CCP?

Waifu Hunter is best group. After all, only communists don't want to know which games have best anime TnA + Waifu's. /holy shit I am being sarcastic before anyone goes full sperglord.
