  1. The guy should have been reported to Bethesda long ago. His patreon is still up, and he is selling access to both Skyrim and Fallout 4 mods. They can take him down.
  2. I second this. I understand the download speed is slower for non-premium, I don't need to be reminded every time I download something like I was downloading from some crappy fileshare website.
  3. The change log is an important tab, it should not be buried in the logs tab, it should have it's own tab.
  4. The purpose of amazon is generally buying things. The purpose of Nexusmods is to download mods for PC games. There isn't a market here other than ad revenue, supporters, and premium members. Your argument makes more sense for things that could be more cross-platform, such as iTunes or whatnot(though even that has a separate design for PC and mobile, which really does not help with the credence of your argument), where there is a specific interest in keeping things multi-platform; just as people play music on their phones, they can do the same in their PC. However, there is no PC gaming on the phone. I can not download the halamshiral ballgown dress for my Dragon Age 2 character on my phone. I can do it on my PC, and I can only do it on my PC. I can not take screenshots of my PC from my phone(unless I wanted to be extremely inefficient ), and then upload it to Nexus-mods(unless . . . Inefficiency.) This is a site whose very purpose lies in modifications for PC games. Whilst you can say that thinking otherwise is "lacking in vision", I think you're coming from a standpoint that is completely bypassing the reason for this website. In the end, the only need for a mobile design is to access the forums or to look at text-based materials. Therefore, if Dark0ne wanted a seperate, mobile-based design, that would be somewhat intuitive, if the amount of people doing such is large enough(though it's still possible on the phone, just a bit clunky). However, in making a mobile-based design for a PC-dominated website that operates entirely on PC modifications, it's completely counter intuitive. You flip the situation so that it's designed for phones, and it's the PC's that are faced with things that are possible, but very clunky. The fact of the matter is that a vast majority of functions for this website are only accessible for PC's. This update has made the social aspects, such as image browsing and commenting, quite a bit more inconvenient; that, I can freely accept, it's just a minor part of the website. But, this new design has made the core of the website, mod browsing, very infuriating. If this were a new design for an amateur modding site, okay, I can accept that. But it's not. When we have an older system that actually works better, of course you're going to have people like myself clamoring for it to go back. The old design worked, and it worked better, and to have us shoved back with features such as mod categorization made broken in the old design, it's really just not good. This is why the old design should be the default for PC's. If someone accesses the website from a mobile device, the new design is more suited to that. However, it is less functional and less convenient than the old one, so the outraged is justified. As I said, the change is much more than aesthetic. The way one uses the website is changed quite a bit, and from my experience, it is a very negative change. Edit: I take back the broken categorization comment about the old website. It's been fixed. Hit the nail on the head. This has been a disturbing trend for not only websites, but software as well. For a site whose primary use is to download content for PC games, one would think that the site would be designed for PC users. The mobile users can be inconvenienced. I got my recent update page, so I am mostly satisfied, but the design does seem to be a step backward for the sake of aesthetics.
  5. The site seems to like to be very inefficient with space, but I guess that is the thing nowadays. Waste all that space just to be flashy. It does seem to be geared towards mobile devices. I have seen many responses to that asking why is it bad making the site mobile friendly? Well, Johnny, mobile and PC are two very different platforms. You want mobile friendly, make a site for mobile devices. Just remember, PC users are the ones who download from the site. The files tab is very inefficient. Sooo much wasted space.
  6. In response to post #54959113. #54959528, #54959868, #54960743, #54961303, #54963573, #54963743, #54970663, #54982328 are all replies on the same post. Maybe, but it was also mentioned that they were wanting to implement a plugin system for games. To me that means each game plugin could have the ability to handle things like this independently of the other games.
  7. Still missing the recent activity page. The old one was quick and simple, I looked at it most everyday to see what was new and updated, all on one page going back for as long as you wanted to go back.
