But this is a site, as you mentioned, is for "some form of gaming monitor, or television for console players, as we are playing a game". So how is prioritizing for overly mobile friendly vs. PC/television helpful for the site as a whole? I think part may be because almost everything online is prioritizing mobile; so any site not is considered out of date. This is a personal pet peeve for me though, but it is reality. I am still disappointed with my last site/community migrated for "portability". It was ok, but it had drawn backs compared to the old version. I think it is just something that ends up happening. The only thing we can do is our best to give feedback and hope for the best. So far the updates coming look promising. But I am more concerned when we get to updating mod pages, but the style and theme starts here. So I am keeping tabs on this every step of the way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be reducing the size of the avatar, sidebar and banner as part of this change. Mod Tile status indicators (Downloaded, Update Available, etc) will be returning Many of the removed sorting options will be returning. In addition to this, the default sort for Mods and Media will be reverted to "Recently Added". This is the same as the default sort on the "Classic" version of the page. Fantastic, this covers my main concerns, I look forward to seeing your next update! Thank you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devon752 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 It's cool. Looks a bit similar to steam, would be nice if we could place the best mods that we made as showcases on profiles as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone captured monitor size statistics for the site? That would be interesting reading (and also help inform your design). Youtube has thumbnails with SOME info. The text is minimal compared to the mods thumbnails that provide both description text and info. There is just much more. In my personal opinion, I don't like youtube's layout, I always reduce my youtube tab so that at most 3 thumbnails are shown in the front-page. I use a 32" 4k monitor, so that would be the reason, but the most common monitor resolution is still 1920x1080 (most likely 27") based on steam charts. Also, the removal of the downvote button sort of ruins their integrity to focus on the UX, so I don't trust them to begin with 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBK01 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I like the idea and it might just work... Love the clear UI and love it when Nexus listen to our opinions I only have one downside and that is related to "premium" user experience. Since we are allowed to select a server from where we want to download mods/files, what is the purpose and why is needed to show us this whole window (First image) and even saying to change the Location in Your Preferences, when no matter what you choose or do that window will appear every time. Wouldn't be enough just a Download Button, mods that are listed as dependencies and a small link for preferences? In all honesty ... al that big window just makes me go back just being a normal user (with a download limit) than seeing that all the time when you want to download something If that window is "cut" down the middle, will look much better and more premium than all those options (something like second image). Hope that more people will agree with this and i am not the only "idiot" around Thanks once again for listening to our requests and hope that one day will see this one trough as well !!! Many thanks, DBK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avidichard Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 • "Skyrim Special Edition" unavailable in the game list, as well as a lot of others. • Seeing the UNIQUE downloads is a good thing. Yes, number of downloads is good but knowing how many DIFFERENT people actually downloaded it is good. If you cannot display both, add an option for us to choose which one to show. • None of the mods show a file size and for me it's irrelevant, I'd like that to be an option to display or not. Asside from these, up to now, I really like the new style. Thanks for updating this!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmilyDubWaves Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I'm liking this thus far, maybe shrink the text a smidge, but other than that its looking clean. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
