MxR playlist? We NEED one

[ErosTheGOD7]

So I'm a huge fan of mod reviewers on youtube, My favorite Mod Reviewer is MxR. This guy convinced me to get a bad ass PC and was the first person who showed me all the sick and badass mods for Skyrim back in the day. I found his channel around the time Fallout 4 was announced and ive been following him since. I got a PC last November bc of the embarrassing ass mods that came to my PS4 etc etc etc.

 

Well enough of a backstory,

 

I have to say I'm somewhat embarrassed Nexus doesn't have a Mod Reviewer section that allow youtube creators like MxR can use to store all the mods they talk about. sure its in the youtube video description but as we all know some mods get deleted and upgraded or the link is just broken for some reason etc

 

 

I use the Nexus Fallout 4 as my Home Page for new browsers lol idk I kind of just love the Nexus..... don't judge

 

but,

 

something odd struck me just a minute ago, there is no shortcuts to MxR Mods or Mod Showcasers on the Nexus anywhere. (I haven't really looked lol)

 

like I feel like the Nexus need to atleast acknowledge these guys with a link to their Nexus Profile and the list of mods they use etc etc. but nah just kind of the generic style website with generic filters. I already know you can google a mod they talk about and the nexus is number one on the list of search results and I'm sure youll find the mod they showcased but I kinda feel like we aren't given these guys the respect they deserve.... 1.5 million subscribers and the nexus homepage for fallout 4 mods doesn't even hint that MxR is making videos.

 

I know you, yes YOU reading this know who the f*#@ mxr is and don't need a perma link to his nexus profile to see what mods he showcased but I'm just thinking of the guys who don't LOVE fallout 4 and use the nexus as a home page....... like myself, and they don't want to look for the second week of January hot files to see the badass 4k chainlink fence mod that makes the brown spaghetti into rusting metal masterpieces.... maybe exhaggerating but I love that mod. the point I'm trying to make is how simple they could click on MxR's profile and see all the videos of the mods he is using and get the link to some AMAZING muh fuggin mods. Some mods he showcases aren't in hot files and aren't in the top 100 for their category but are pretty cool and took a lot of time to make. These mods he showcase get some extra traffic after a video but I feel like even people who aren't into the youtube scene would benefit from having a chance to see some amazing mods in a few minutes versus the hour or 2 hours theyd have to dig through files and watch the review or mod showcases.

 

give them a spotlight sidebar, these guys make us happy and with the way youtube is raping them I think us as a modding community should show some love to these guys....

 

 

 

also, I deleted fallout 4 bc I was running my PC on my SSD and just put my HDD back in so I'm downloading fallout and I f*#@ing deleted all my mods and am about to spend most likely 3 to 4 hours this weekend to get fallout 4 up to MY standard..... 4 k boobs etc etc. so I was like wait why the f*#@ does MxR not have a damn link on the site yet? then decided to hop in forums and share my opinion lmao. If you agree or disagree please comment below and for Christs sakes don't spell check me or grammar check me lol

Just ask that mrx person to make a Google docs file with all the mods they review. Might help them grow as well.

 

Edit: If you want to make a suggestion for changes to the Nexusmods website I recommend that you put them in the "Feedback, suggestions and questions" forums. Higher chance of someone who can make the change seeing it there most likely.

Perhaps instead of simply listing the mods he uses/reviews, he could include links. Sounds like something that someone would do if they actually cared about whether or not their viewers could use the mods they review.

I know I've seen videos out there that link to the mods they use, so it's not an unprecedented concept. For instance, with a quick search just now on Google I found an obscure (low views) settlement building video by someone called "Captain Tigerchips" at www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEH9XafITSc that had in the description a very nice list of each mod used along with a link to that mod. He could be bothered to do that, yet someone who makes lots of money by reviewing mods and has a huge viewership apparently (from your description of it) doesn't provide links to any of them, which seems like it would be a no-brainer to do if the goal is to actually promote said mods.

Anyway, just my thoughts on it.

Actually, he does. The OP just either doesn't notice them, or (what it sounds like to me) they don't want to have to go through the 50+ FO4 videos looking for links.

[Gruffydd]

Hrm. Solution seems obvious enough then. Keep a list, and when a mod gets reviewed/featured that you like, just copy the link and paste it into your list. Then you'll always have the mods you liked a click away.

[Perraine]

Yeah, Oxhorn for instance keeps a comprehensive Document with all the mods he uses, all categorized with brief "descriptions" and sometimes even alternatives. So instead of having to wade through all his videos to find that armor that you see in the background of video xx, it's all there, easy to find.

 

But then, Oxhorn is a pretty nice guy, who actually posts on mod pages to thank modders, endorses files, and even asks to showcase mods sometimes ... Who'd a thunk it?

[BlahBlahDEEBlahBlah]

I've seen one only that doesn't list them in some form or fashion (pretty sure, at least, but maybe I just couldn't find it). Can't remember the name, but starts with a 'K' I think.

[BlahBlahDEEBlahBlah]

Off topic:

I don't know why, but this made me remember that I've come across a few of seddon's mods lately, and I was surprised they weren't higher downloaded considering all the great and helpful vids s/he's done.

 

...just thought I'd say that. =)

Compared to a certain someone who's literally only endorsed a handful of mods since around 2012, seemingly uses other peoples screenshots without permission, ignores the T.O.S. of mods and ignores mod authors requests on their own content, hides behind his fanbase while giving them haft truths, plays the victim game, is sponsored by a company that is known to rip off consumers, and who's on record twice for contacting the owner of the Nexus to make ridiculously unreasonable demands & generally act like a child.

No thanks.

@all

there seems to be a lot of renewed interest in

this kind of idea, it could be a whole new aspect to mods and mod-sampling etc.

 

so if folks haven't already seen it,

I highly recommend sojourning to The Lounge to see fellow nex-ite "gamemodul" 's thread entitled;

"Mods List Generator"

as a tentative framework to achieve a lot of what

Erosthe|Deity|7 was envisaging.

 

that is just one approach to skinning this particular rad-rabbit,

and there may be a few other options too,

if folks from thisweekintech and game-code-stack-exchange etc all decide to collab.

due to YOLO TLDR, a lot of people don't even have enough time

to game, let alone see a small random sample of

all the awesome mods for every title.

that's right - nCr, nPr, n^X!, its combinatorially a vast set of options out there,

thanks to these awesome modders who make a lot of stuff!

 

that's where these "Random Samplers" - mod review random sample vids

come into it. I'm talking the more balanced and fair brief demo/reviewers,

not the "critics" etc.

they are essentially MCMC testing a random walk through the forest that is

all those mods.

 

in watching a meta-set of those,

we, the audience, get to see more mods than we may otherwise ourselves see in our own

random sample routine.

these mod presenters etc, they're more than just a random webcrawler,

or RSS tag ticker crawling along the bottom of a HUD,

they demonstrate potential combinations and contexts for the mods as well.
