They also need to start packaging 64 bit versions of their games on PC alongside the 32 bit versions like Microsoft does their OSes. This would totally eliminate artificial memory limits for users of 64 bit Windows OSes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, they'll get to it again with a new game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abestrus Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I am not for or against paid modding. It's like any art, some individuals get into it for the challenge, to grow artistically, others for the money as well. Neither is bad or good, just DIFFERENT. It's like many modders post on their page "if you don't like this mod move on don't download it and don't troll" you as a user always have the option to not pay for a mod. I am surprised Bethesda and Valve listened, and it shows a lot about them as a company and how much they value their customers. Now here are the possible repercussions for future endeavors: 1. no creation kits released anymore to the ungrateful people that didn't know what they had until it's gone.2. we lost some major modding talent due to some extremists in the community and extreme hate3. modders that stayed free, garnered hardcore loyal followers...as long as they don't charge money, and showed their loyalty to us as downloaders4. Dark0ne and other website owners are going to start wondering if pouring money into a website sponsored by such a finicky crowd that can turn on you in an instant is worth dealing with. So with that said. I love the Nexus and all it's pages. I love Bethesda and Valve for trying something new and taking a risk. Mostly I love my country for being capitalist and the market decided the product wasn't worth buying so it failed. It's about supply and demand. If there is no demand there is no product. I will keep on buying Bethesda and Valve games. I decided to put my money where my mouth is and I started donating to some of the modders here on the Nexus that have donation buttons up because the Nexus gives them 100% of what you donate. Might not be much, maybe a cup of coffee for the late nights spent modding. But for most of the popular mods that have 500k downloads or more, if everyone kicked in 50 cents, that's a pretty decent thank you and a lot of coffee. Artmoor and Chesko might not be hired by Bethesda, buy they can be hired by the modding community if we all give them a small thanks. Hey even the guys at Venice beach sketching on pads or juggling chainsaws get donations in a hat, why not a modder? I'm just hoping our community heals quickly, but some bitter taste is always going to be there. As a downloader of mods I saw some really poisonous stuff posted against people that decided to pay the bills with their talent on their pages. I know that if I was a modder, and I lived from inspiration in the heart, that would kill any I had. Not for or against it. Just think Bethesda and Valve did it wrong, it felt forced down our throats. Too much, too soon. I think people here got scared we would lose our top modders to money and big corporations. That should show how valuable these mods are to everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
