I just posted a topic about how Nexus is getting perverted, and I got 2 replies, one of them agreed with me fully. Then I found out some administrator locked it. This is completely unfair. I'm a member of several forums, and I shall use "Planet Mondas" as an example. On that forum (it's for Dr. Who), the administrators have a "Forum Talk" section where they directly ask for constructive critism of the website so they can improve it, and mak it better for everyone. For example, I said that their backround looked tacky, several people agreed with me, and they changed it! It looks like they have the opposite attitude here. I didn't even ask for the forum to change it, I was just voicing my opinion, and they block me, telling me that my opinion is pointless. I am posting it here because this is the section where I posted it. And BTW Nexus, It's not right to have that many "sexy female" mods. Not only is it peverted, but to have that many, it's sexist. And you tell me "streets are perverted". So you are telling me it's alright??? Please do not block me Nexus, and please do not lock this subject. Move it if you want, because I don't know my way around here. Thank you. This is not a democracy. I locked that topic for a reason, and if you feel you have the right to argue about it, you should have made your case by PM, not by circumventing my authority. If you don't like the way we do things, shuffle along, let me get the door for you. -myrmaad

Please don't let this fall into the 3rd page...

When I first joined Nexus, I joined because of mods that would be good for Morrowind's (I miss them!) and Oblivion's (and later on, Fallout 3's) gaming experience. Now, I find that in 99% of searches I do (for example, I searched "Arena"), I find TONS of 'sexy female', 'cute female', and serching for characters will lead to TONS of 'sexy female character', 'hot female character', 'cute female'. You know? Sure, there is nothing wrong with 'sexy' mods, I'm not one of those types of people who are against ANYTHING having to do with sex, but I feel that half of the mods on here are Sex-based (and almost all of them are of females). Please, consider my point. It's actually becoming perverted here. And DO NOT tell me to put up with it! Closing this topic as flamebait. Our policy is if you don't like it, shuffle along to the next thing. Or suggest a constructive change in the appropriate forum. By your standard, TV is getting perverted. City streets are getting perverted... -myrmaad

Can someone give me the sales numbers (up to 2010) of each Elder Scrolls game 4 me? (including Battlespire & Redguard). It would be interesting to compare 2 each other and of larger Fantasy games.

Well, perhaps, but consider, back in the Medieval Ages in real life, were there many Arabs, Asians, Indians and Black people in Europe at the time? I didn't think so. There is a reason, most of Tamriel is European-influenced, so U won't see Asians, Arabs or Indians. There were a few black people in Europe in the Medieval Ages, so that's why there r Redguards. Trust me, it's not racist Spain had the Moors. As for whatever humans lived in Akavir, I'd imagine they'd have looked Asian. Um... Why would they be Asian??? My point is, the game is NOT racist. Besides, it's too late to introduce another race.

I'm sorry, but I think Oblivion is a good game BUT these problems screw it up, even if fixable. Here's why: 1. SIZE - How can Cyrodiil be THAT small?! My home city, Wollongong with a population of only 275,000, is WAY bigger in size!!! And Tamriel is supposed 2 B the size of Europe?! And how does this ratio with the size of the game world of Daggerfall? Sure, OK, scaling down, but this is ridiculous! I know Morrowind scaled down, maybe a little bit too much, but it wasn't as bad as Oblivion. The Imperial City should be like, District after District after District. Even with scaling down. 2. LACK OF ORIGINALITY - No-one can deny that Morrowind was revolutionary. If you were to write a list of the most original games of all time, you would be insane not 2 include Morrowind. Everything about it is uncomparable, I cannot even explain it. Oblivion was a big step down, and I don't care much, but it as a bit disappointing after Morrowind. 4 example, I had a collection of clothes from Morrowind, all because they were so original, so revolutionary, as was the armor. Oblivion's armor and clothes I keep to wear only, because they r boring. 3. TRAINING WHEELS - Bethesda, I know you did a lot of dumbing down 4 the kids, but honestly, fast travel is 4 games like SKATE 3 where it takes you 7 hours to get from one place to the next by walking (or skating with this example). Not for a game where it takes you 40 minutes to get from the lowest point of the map 2 he highest. Ruins exploration. And Essential NPCs & Quest Items? Ruins ur freedom >:( . 4. AI - Everyone else has said it. It's plain stupid becuase its poorly done. 5. RACES - The races were impressive in Morrowind. Argonians & Khajits really felt like beasts, it was such an incredibly different experience playing them. The Imperials seemed stuck-up and haughty, the Bretons seemed intelligent and irritated all the time, the Nords seemed Viking-ish, the Redguards seemed wise and strong, the Wood Elves seemed annoying & rude, the High Elves seemed Pansy and "I'm-So-Much-Better-Than-You", and last, but certainly not least, the Dark Elves seemed so cut off from the other races, and so pure, and so grumpy (and sort of evil). Just the way they should be. In Oblivion, they all seem bland and uniform. Plus, Dark Elves R supposed 2 B grey, not blue or green, and the Redguards are supposed to B brown (No, I'm not being racist). And all races have really bad voices (no offense to the actors, you did a good job, but you didn't suit them.) 6. MINIGAMES - They R so annoying! They are based on your reflexes, not your character's skill. So therefore, either they or the skills have 2 go, because it makes either useless. 7. SIMPLY NEEDS 2 BE MODDED - OK, this isn't really a fault, but it's just funny becuase Morrowind had a CD right next 2 the game CD and on that extra CD was your tool to COMPLETELY change the game. So Morrowind was begging 2 B modded, but it didn't need much. Oblivion says "I don't need 2 B modded, but 4 hardcore fans, you can download it here. And if you don't have a credit account yet (age, u see), you're screwed." But Oblivion is the game that should be begging 2 be modded. Most of these problems on the list R fixable. 8. MESHES - Oblivion's meshes are horrendous. From a distance, things look AMAZING! But, for instance, you walk up to a rock and you can see how meshes are painted on the shape of the rock extremely poorly, and how some parts of the mesh (I don't know how to say it really) are stretched, other parts are GREEN. That's supposed to be moss - Looks more like someone puked on it. And don't pull out the age card, becuase Morrowind is twice Oblivion's age, and it has great meshes, even close up. 9. LEVELLING - To some extent, it's a good idea. But only if the levelling system only minorly affects the gameplay, like in Fallout 3. In F3, things are according to a levelling system too, but you can still walk into a place too hard for your level, and a place too easy 4 U. In Oblivion, you encounter nothing but rats until you begin to level up, and eventually, you'll encounter nothing but Minotaurs. 10. REPETETIVENESS - Let's go exploring! You'll find caves that all look the same, trees, grass, rocks, and villages & inns. The Villages & Inns part is OK, but Morrowind had so much to find, to explore, to sell off, and it was exiting just to go into a Daedric Ruin, die 5 times, kill the inhabitants, find an amazing artefact, then go to Caldera (as an example) and sell all you found, but keep the artefact which you'll give to the Museum of Artefacts. And this was SO MUCH FUN, and challenging, even on lowest difficulty! Oblivion has none of this, unless you find a Deadric Shrine, all of which are boring, and guess what, ALL THE SAME!!! 11. OVERUSE OF CELLS - Why do cities need their own cells? And more so, EVERY DISTRICT?! I'm sure there's a reason, but it must have another solution other than what Bethesda did, becuase the overuse of cells is just ridiculous. These might seem stupid, because you are going to say that you can fix most of these with mods, but is a casual gamer really gonna find this website for mods when they can just hate Oblivion and get the new Final Fantasy Game? The only argument here against Oblivion I'll defend is lack of gore. It's called censorship, Oblivion was made to introduce the Elder Scrolls games to a younger generation. Gore would've just kept Oblivion with a more mature audience which only graphics freaks and hardcore fans like us would mostly like because of it's problems like the ones above. And i'm sure much of the younger generation like myself found Morrowind 2 deep, and stuck with Final Fantasy. I however, enjoy deep games. This reason actually might justify lack of originality a bit...

Well, perhaps, but consider, back in the Medieval Ages in real life, were there many Arabs, Asians, Indians and Black people in Europe at the time? I didn't think so. There is a reason, most of Tamriel is European-influenced, so U won't see Asians, Arabs or Indians. There were a few black people in Europe in the Medieval Ages, so that's why there r Redguards. Trust me, it's not racist

I tried it, it didn't work and I lost a lot of stuff. I had a "Messiah-level" character with a gigantic and pround amount of loot, quests and karma. But that's okay, she was getting boring anyway.

Custom items, added by mods - for example, "Nuka-Cola Cherry".

Hold on, but won't I lose alot of stuff then?

Fixed it! Found some alternate meshes (from a non-porn male body replace mod I forgot about) and deleted them. The vanilla male body mesh is now appearing, I have another problem, but I'll investigate it... BTW, the crashing problem has NOT fixed itself, as I have just discovered. I'll try ur suggestion falloutperson416.

Actually, that problem has just mysteriously fixed itself (???), but thanks for the help. Anyway, I'll be looking thru the readmes now to figure out the male body mesh problem.

Well I do have to kill my character every time I load the game (just once), otherwise the game'll crash if I try to save the game.

Centaurs are freaky.
