All these "sexy" mods are getting annoying

[grasscid]

They're freaking everywhere. Sexy armor, sexy followers, sexy characters, sex toys, revealing clothes, redone existing characters e.g e.g. It's really getting on my nerves that there is such a sheer quantity of these mods. Even things that are unrelated to anything "sexy", like say, a new weapon, get front page and 200+ endorsements as long as the screenshots are in ENB with a half naked chick holding your new "weapon". It's ridiculous and annoying. Just take the Sporty Sexy Sweat mod, for example. You know what it really is? It's sweat. For your "favorite character." But somehow, it's ammased 700 endorsements and almost 40,000 DL's.

It's just sweat, guys. for your character.

 

But because it has the word "sexy" in it, and it has half naked chicks with ENB in every single damn screenshot, it becomes so popular as to be featured for an entire week on front page.

 

Last I checked, this was a game for fighting dragons, doing quests, and slaying bandits. Not a pleasure tool for jacking off to every 5 minutes.

This is Skyrim, not sky rim.

 

I'm definately okay with some of the simpler stuff. Nude mods are fine, and hell, maybe even some of the "prostitution mods". At least those are somewhat immersive, even if it's just a little.

But when you have all these Temptress Races, and sexy revealing armors, that's entirely unnecessary and doesn't belong in Skyrim. In a game about combat, you don't expect someone to wear a tight dress that reveals their breasts and offers no protection whatsoever. What's even sadder is that these mods aren't even targeted at girls. They're made for lonely teenage nerds who can't possibly hope to "score" in real life. Or maybe I'm way off. That's my best guess at who they're targeted at.

 

I'm not even a female, nor a feminist. I simply think the quantitiy of these mods is too damn high. I want some actual useful mods. Things like the USKP, or gameplay balancers, or something like HothTroopers immersive armors. Those things add to the game, and really flesh it out and make it all that it can be. But things likethis have absolutely no purpose in Skyrim, WHATSOEVER. We need more people like Hothtrooper and Arthmoor; people who contribute real things to this community and really strive to ensure that people get the best out of their game.

And fapping to it doesn't count.

 

 

As always, feel free to disagree, trash on me, agree, or whatever.

Oh good, another of these threads.

While I'm not interested in nude or sexy or whatever such mods myself, I'm simply paying them no mind, I'm not the least bothered by them or their taking all the top places in ranking lists or some such either. What's in these lists is a majority decision and of no meaning to me, nor does it bother me the slightest what's not in those lists.

 

What does bother me though are topics like this, people thinking their point of view is more important than others', intending to somehow "dictate" what 'belongs' into Skyrim and what doesn't, while the mere 'existance' of a mod alone doesn't make it inevitable to download and use already.

 

This kind of mentality is why you won't see any of my mods in Skyrim for the foreseeable future. The community today just isn't the same anymore, and it doesn't feel right to share and thereby 'support' this thinking anymore.

Does it matter to anybody or does anybody even care? No, of course not, and why should they? But so do those lists and the existance of any random kind of mods in the downloads around here.

 

If you don't see any in-your-opinion 'quality' and interesting mods lately, then it's topics like this scaring away veteran or potential high quality mod authors. Deal dis-respect and earn dis-interest.

I didn't say my opinion was more important. Nor was I dictating how the community should be. I was simply venting and you need not take it for any more than that.

I agree with you, but...

 

Everyone plays the game the way they wish. Today I saw a mod for a "sexy Redguard" companion that, quite frankly, looked like a cow. Why anyone would want such a companion is beyond me, but there it was. Moo. There are plenty of great modders producing content that is intelligent and mature (in the traditional sense). As the game is finished, DLC-wise, and becomes stable there will be many more. Enjoy the good, ignore the rest.

We've had too many versions of this topic here in the past, and it never ends well.

 

Closing before someone says something they regret. Don't start another topic on this subject.
