We, the community, need to be very patient and respectful as modders navigate this exciting but turbulent time brought on by SSE. There are many hurtles that modders will need to jump, some more than others, to bring their original Skyrim content to SSE, as well as some things many of them need to wait for (e.g. SKSE to be rewritten for SSE, etc). We need to be respectful and appreciative of their efforts and time, not only because of what they do for us, but also because if we are not then some of them, understandably so, may leave the SSE modding scene (as some of them left the original Skyrim scene). If that begins to happen then there is, in my opinion, no chance that SSE will surpass original Skyrim (even despite 64-bit, Dx11, etc).

Let us not forget the Nexus staff either! The guys who work around the clock, particularly during heavy traffic times like this, who make it all possible. Skyrim wouldn't be what it is without the modders but if it weren't for the incredible people running The Nexus what many of us have come to take for granted would have never been possible in the first place! They have worked just as hard as Skyrim's modders and I feel that they get the short-end of the stick, in terms of appreciation, because the focus is often directly on modding/modders of Skyrim, not so much on the site that hosts them. So we must also be appreciative and respectful of the Nexus staff, especially now more than ever as they are currently experiences higher volumes of site traffic than ever before and have a lot of work cut out for them to manage this situation brought on by SSE.

Spread that message/sentiment far and wide around the community because it is a very real possibility that SSE could splinter this community more than it will breathe new life into it; the deciding factor is, in my opinion, ultimately how we, the community, treat the modders and Nexus staff that have gone to such lengths to make Skyrim what is today!




THANK YOU to all modders, you guys and gals are amazing people! AND HUUUUGE thanks to the entire Nexus Mods and Mod Manager team for everything you do. This community and game certainly wouldn't be what it is without you guys too!

I do fully agree with your points though, many of the mods I have grown to love over the years have lost their original author through one way or another, It's nice to see that I'm not the only one who thinks we need to band together as a community and work to heal the rift that has been made by the past misjudgements of others.

Sent you a PM btw

At 99,9%, all of you don't have this nice, shiny, green text for saying: "Hey, at least I supported the Nexus and so I can text my sadness about the downtime." This would at least be reasonable & understandable. But the service is for free. No, you don't need to support anyone. But just understand, that there are limits.

Limits, maybe not that fast broken if more people would support them. More servers, better speeds. Well, I stop here. I think, you got the message.

A big thanks to everyone involved, both Nexus site folks and wonderful modders. Aside from a little immaturity/drama from a small percentage of users, I think Nexus has one of the best communities on the web.

well, i'm just here as a 'lookyloo' seeing whats been converted/updated and what might be new. going to wait a week or two to mod the SE myself.

 

but its good to hear that its bringing people back to the game! i was all set to start a new playthrough earlier this year (around the time the SE was announced) but put it off to wait for the SE.

 

cant wait to get immersed again.

[Savvie]

It's to be expected there would be a huge influx with Skryim SE. I really respect and appreciate all the hard work each of you do to maintain this site.

 

Nexus is like my second home on the internet.

i have to say i found out that skyrim was releasing a special edition last week XD. my pc is little bit to slow to run it so i didn't get it. but i have played skyrim a lot lately. at first i played it on xbox 360. and now i can't imagine a unmodded skyrim haha. i love to play around gimmicky builds like only restoration spells or something like that.
hope people will enjoy the special edition.

[JamesGaming100]

Good lads, hope some good old 4k texture mods release for special edition, miss my god-tier skyrim :(
