In response to post #71749438. #71760963 is also a reply to the same post. You got something against profit? People who provide a service (that you apparently find valuable in some way, evidenced by your presence here) getting paid? -

Immersive Armors is a must-have mod for me. It was on my shortlist of mods I was waiting to be ported to SSE before even bothering to start a playthrough.

In response to post #64095256. " Members who are in the Supporter member group OR who consistently do not use Adblockers on Nexus Mods." Supporters don't see ads anyway. It's basically the whole point of being a supporter. -

And they're used to it because it's how everyone has managed mods with pretty much every bit of software that allows you to manage mods since people have been modding. Hell, Bethesda's own load order managers, whether you use the one in previous games' launchers, or the Mods screen they implemented in FO4 and SSE, are all based on allowing you to simply move mods where you need them to be. It's the most basic way of implementing load order management, and has become the de facto way of doing so. I'd wager the way most people do it, is they install their mods, they run LOOT, they check to see if there are any glaring issues with the way LOOT has ordered things, they make the necessary corrections, and then they play. The people who care to take the extra step of creating rules and messing with priorities for LOOT are undoubtedly a much smaller subset of these users. And with Vortex, these users are losing the option of that "making necessary corrections" step in an easy and familiar manner, instead being forced to take that extra step that I'd bet actual money the vast majority of users have never bothered doing before. On top of all this, I've yet to see an actual valid reason as to why this change has been made other than "well it's better to do it this way". There's a large number of people who consider Mod Organizer to be the better way of managing mods, and yet it's an admittedly more complicated/advanced tool for management than the majority of people are willing to use, as Tannin himself admits. So if we're not comfortable forcing the average user to use a more advanced tool like Mod Organizer to manage their mods... why the heck are we comfortable forcing those same users to use a more advanced method of load order management?

What you consider necessary and what others consider necessary are not necessarily the same thing. For instance, I consider changing the way we manage our load order to be unnecessary. I find it interesting how you presume to declare whether or not a certain feature is necessary, and then sarcastically remark about people complaining about a change they clearly don't consider necessary. There are a lot of changes that this software needs in order for me to use it. The ability to sort my load order by dragging individual mods where they should be, as we've been able to do for years in NMM and MO, is one of those changes. I'd consider it necessary.
