There is always a reason for lewd things to exist, and that would be so I can fap to them. Also, straw man harder, you might actually win an argument some day :D

I was terribly confused at first but then I suddenly happily agreed with you. Imagine that look a dog gets on its face when you hide his treat from him and then you give it to him. That would pretty much sum up the look on my face when I read your post.

I’ll agree with you on that, this was most definitely NOT the death of PC gaming, Valve just poorly implemented a feature that shook things up immensely with little to no warning to the PC gaming community at large. They also didn’t exactly pick the best game to do it with.

Because they are the butthurt fuck’s who had already quit modding and then came back to try and cash in on it only to get shut down before they could.

You are right, no one is making me buy shit because I would just pirate paid mods.

One day you will grow up and realize, modder or not, every adult has bills and can’t exactly afford to drop 150.00 on shit that may or may not all work all that great because it is made by some dude sitting in his basement.

Sigh not put on Nexus I meant to say workshop under someone elses name but I was channeling that whole stream of consciousness thing and didn’t proofread enough.

Modders shouldn’t be working on mods full time. Modders should be working at a job full time, while doing mods as a hobby. Game developers on the other hand, who work full time, should be paid a living wage. As it is their job to make game and content for said game after all. Modders do it out of passion or because…

HL3 will never come out. The company called Valve that back in the day used to make cool video games is dead now and only some company called Steam exists in their place.

Good on you. I would just say you got a little older an got some wisdom in your bones.

No actually if you took a gander over at the Nexus, a lot of modders were indeed NOT in support of this. Considering that the number of mods on Nexus only dropped by about 70, still sitting fat and happy around 40,000 plus mods. Most of the mods that dropped off of Nexus were just hidden til this whole incident sorted…

Yes actually in this case additional options do kill. Already one of the core mods of Skyrim modding is going behind the pay wall that is paid mods. This particular mod being Sky UI which was used as a base framework by countless other mods to provide in game options menus using the actual game menus instead of ghetto…

No I choose to be involved because I choose to try and kill this before it can ruin PC modding. All Steam aims to do is create yet another thread of profits that further boost their already insane profit margins with little to no work on their side.

Yea, I won’t be buying this shit, I’ll be downloading it, for free, like it should be. I’ll just be using Kick Ass Torrents instead of Steam.

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.
