>bethesda normalized paid for mods
>it's becoming a normalized thing in other game's modding communities
>mod creator refuses to open the repo because people will "steal" their content
how do you lack the self awareness
Capitalism and copyright has ruined the brains of people.
>grr capitalism
Eat twigs, Black person.
NOOOO YOU CANT JUST MAKE ME PAY FOR YOUR HARD WORK THAT I LEECH OFF OF, THATS A HECKIN COMMUNISTERINO troony BIDEN PELOSI SCAM!
he is leeching off from the devs of the original game moron
and? you jelly? the devs may sell more copies because of the mod
Ain't nobody buying an AAA game just to buy a shitty mod.
Plus this is copyright infringement.
>you jelly?
Black person are you stuck in 2012?
This mentality is legitimately why draw threads died and terrible wajak edits became the norm. And now I fully realize why zoomers finding this place was it's death
>OH NO! NOT LE HECKING WHOLESOME ARTgayRINOS!
creativity threads die because the artists start participating for attention and the non artists fail to enforce a culture of non homosexualry
nah its because of mean bot requests.
100% of mods are complete trash anyway, the only useful ones are the cheat tables, for testing purposes.
You make money off of a protected license. And who do you think you are exactly? You're not a full team of hundreds of experienced professionnels with a AAA budget, you're a troony in his room. Your trash will never be worth paying a single penny. Do it for free or gtfo. People even crack whole AAA games and you think they will pay for your shitty mod kek.
if he had made his own game you would actually have a point
Putting mods behind a paywall stands in complete contradiction with the spirit of modding to begin with. You frickin' miserable homosexual.
>people make youtube videos for fun
>youtube is good

I want off this ride
The Internet is dying and so is gaming
Patreon locked mods existed before the bethesda israelite move
But the trend is worrying to say the least.
what happened to downloading epic skins off gamebanana? Do zoomers really pay for mods?
dont play his shit mod then
But I want to play shitty mods for free
trash fricking mod from a video i just saw
15k people downloaded my mods and I've made a big $20 in two years. No donations or anything. Just the bare minimum you get from nexus for downloads. This is why mods are being paywalled. Me personally I just felt unappreciated and felt that everyone was just whining my mod wasnt 100% perfect
it probably sucked. 15k is nothing btw.
It is actually pretty decent. I'd say it would have gotten a lot more downloads if it was for a more popular game. Downloads fell off as the game became less popular.
I didn't make it for money but as a hobby project and to see what is in the modding scene or if it's even worth the effort. I didn't like the entitlement of mod users so I decided it wasn't worth the effort. No money in it and the people are difficult to deal with.
Nexus should probably pay their modders YouTube money
>I didn't like the entitlement of mod users so I decided it wasn't worth the effort. No money in it and the people are difficult to deal with.
you sound like a huge b***h
>willingly goes into a notoriously low-paid or free working environment
>wtf i didn't make that much money
My reshade mod got 1 download
I was the guy that downloaded it. Keep up the good work champ.
damn it's almost as if you don't make mods for money or appreciation you fricking troglodyte
Modding was never made solely for altruism, it was always a stepping stone into game development. Modding sucks now because it's a billion times easier making and selling a game now, so the only games with any kind of modding scene are trainwrecks like Bethesda games and Cyberpunk, and even then, most of the majority of mods are bug fixes, porn, or ports of shit from other games, aka, nothing creative because anyone with the ability to make a good fricking mod is just going to make their own game and sell it, because why the frick wouldn't they?
Nah he was right the first time.
gays just wanna argue.
Let's check how delusional you are. How many of those people do you think would've bought your mods if free download wasn't available?
So you only care money in the end. How you response to those "whining" ? Zero answer or you were rambling about "please understand, my mod takes time to make bla bla bla" ?
>So you only care money in the end
errybody's gotta make a living
Because like Fromsoft, they know you're all just filthy paypigs. If you unironically got over the nagging feeling you got when you realized Elden Ring was a ps4 game that was held back by a decade of limitations and enjoyed the game...you should most certainly have a nice day and rid our genepool of your awful taste in games.
At least you had the self awareness to post a fedora when you typed all that out.
You're insane, dude.
>filtered post
>check it
>it's just someone calling me a pajeet
uh thanks i guess
>OH NONONONO SIR I CANT PROCEED WITH THE RAPE DO NOT REDEEM GIFT CARDS SIRS
Kek, seeing him appear as a shadow and then disappear when he realizes what's going on was pretty funny
I was offered to unironically shill this mod on my YouTube channel earlier this year
post channel and proof
This shit reeks of that one DS1 mod that just had random shit moved around and shittier combat.
I hope they do a Mario overhaul next since Nintendo would probably do something about it
what's the sonic one
no clue. probably just play as a comically big sonic model and collect giant rings.
Are these joke mods or do people seriously play them?
Hopefully someone reports it to From and he gets shut down & sued
>b-but I quit my daytime job to mod!
Irrelevant, mods should ALWAYS be passion projects, you should never charge for them let alone expect people to donate money for them.
>but all my effort
Also irrelevant, it's effort you chose to spend on somebody else's project and thus you have no claim to it or to demanding money for it. If you want to get paid for your effort then make an original game, or even one using the original game's engine like Falskaar. If you can't do that then frick off or stop whining.
It would unironically be better for all modding to die permanently than for it to go the way of yt and be a for-profit activity and modders who paywall are always c**ts.
MAKE YOUR OWN MODS
END THE MOD israelite
>playing fan mods
I do. I'm waiting for the Convergence update (which will actually be free).
there was only one fan mod I tried because of the changes which were actually nice only to find out it's for pvp and fricks with the PVE experience 🙁
fromsoft game mods are without exception extremely shit and add nothing but extreme powercreep to a degree you would think is a joke
>bro wouldnt it be cool if endgame enemies had a 5000 dps fire aura?
>dont worry though the new gear can mitigate 99% of all damage plus you get nonstop iframes
so fun
it's easy, you just let Bamco know about this, and that people are making money off the mods, and done.
wow what an amazing mod
>some weapon reskins with weapon arts mashed together from existing spells
>some armor reskins
so fricking cool take my 15 dollars
why is it that modders always fail to see the bigger picture? It doesn't matter how many shiny new weapons and armors and spells you add to the game if there are no new enemies to use them on. Elden ring only has a handful of """"difficult"""" moments to begin with and giving me some shiny new toys to slap radagon with doesn't make me want to play your mod, and fricking forget paying for it. For what's supposed to be the ultimate elden ring overhaul/dlc the only information I could find on it that wasn't shitty cosmetics was one new miniboss which was a slightly changed crucible knight. whoopie fricking doo
if your mod doesn't significantly change the game don't expect people to fricking buy it. I might've downloaded one of your shitty weapon skins and acknowledged the effort you made if it were free
the nature of paid mods is as such that whenever someone makes an actually inventive/revolutionary/inspired paid mod, the idea will immediately be stolen and reverse engineered by another modder, then offered for free as his original work, getting way more fame than the paywalled mod. The skyrim community has shown this over and over again.
That's only for the underwhelmingly small minority of paid mods that are actually good enough to cause that effect though: the vast majority of paid modders know this very well and put lazy dogshit mods behind a paywall and put out fancy ads, and every so often some moron will pay for it, which gets them a cozy 200 bucks per year or something passive income.
Googling the mod OP is referencing it seems to be the latter
I keep forgetting that souls has an actual modding scene. Any of them actually worth checking out? OP's looks lame as frick.
Daughters of Ash for DS1 is the best if you will only play one
short answer: no
long answer: no, they're all shit without exception outside of randomizers
I would argue that Champion's Ashes as a mod is better than DS3 base game. Usually overhauls aren't meant to replace the original game tho.
maybe if you're really into the tryhard fighting game aspect
>tryhard
Well it makes it less easy of an ARPG which was Souls appeal at the start
not really, every single overhaul mod, or "expansion" just adds edgy shit the modders likes, nothing to do with the game, or the story, or balance, like the video posted in
just edgy game breaking stuff that you will probably use once to kill a really hard boss really fast.
the only good mods are randomizers if you feel like mixing up the actual game
Randomizers are boring as frick. Overhauls have actual new content that make for a new experience.
doesn't matter if the new experience is shit, randomizers atleast make you try combinations you would never try otherwise which can be cool
Well randomizers feel like nothing changed for me. I would rather have something that's tangibly different than doing the same thing over and over.
at that point I play a different game instead of the same game with a dogshit mod on it that makes it worse
>at that point I play a different game
I think of it as a new game+. I can't replay a game without significant changes. Only game I saw that did significant changes for higher difficulties would be RE7 because it hid the items in new locations, increased enemy speed, and forced new routes through the house.
Most of the time replaying a game feels like if I was looking at a Ganker thread and everyone made the exact same posts and then I said "yeah, I'm gonna read that thread again". Randomizer is like there are the same posts again but they shuffled the order of the posts.
is this the one with the really autistic over the top anime weapons?
paid mods are literally copyright infringement.
correct, the modder themselves probably doesnt have much money so suing them wouldnt be worth it. But suing Patreon could be a big pay day
What's the mod?
>try to disguise as dlc
