Isn't the same shit happening with fallout 4?
>>342712334
First post best post as always
Very nice bait.
You're technicaly right, but conclusion based on your statement will be false.
ah the paid mods fiasco, finally proving that the valve fandom is in fact worse than the skyrim fandom
>>342712458
Is it just? F4 modders supposedly had enough problems with console users doing mod theft.
>>342712150
Nobody but the modders who were asked and nexus site owner fagget was supporting the idea at first until people began to raise a stink about it. Those fuckers then did an obvious 360 to save face, the stream of them was cringey because you know they wanted to profit off of it and just pretended to be on the other side to appear as the good guys.
>>342712150
No one defended this aside from some shitty modders and falseflaggers.
Nearly no one defended this shit. Worse was that some previously 100% free mods suddenly locked their newest versions behind steam's paywall. That destroyed their rep fast.

>>342714357
There were retarded devils advocates everywhere.
The only reason it fell through was because of content piracy and pricing.
Content creators should always have an option to get paid for their work. Only a fag would be against something which makes modiing better.
>>342714540
Burn in hell stupid nigger
>>342712150
So what cut do the mod creators actually get from this? I imagine it's total shit.
I'm seriously baffled how incompetently this was handled. The mods that they displayed were made very poorly, despite the creators having supposedly months of time to prepare.
It was supposed to be big new feature, why choose such poor examples to show it off?
>>342712150
>and PC gamers tried to defend this.
No matter how many times you've made this thread for the past three months, it will never suddenly be true. This shit started on a Friday if I recall and it was axed before the weekend was even over.
>>342714671
Of course. GabeN and Bethshit got the lion's share.
>release shitty game that needs mods
>get a big cut from paid mods
>Literally get paid for being incompetent console nigger hacks
America herpa derp
>>342712150
there are some mods worth paying for.
>>342712150
I'll still defend this.
Mods we see today (well, the bottom 99%) would either remain free or would become free again really soon. No one would pay for them. This would allow mods on a larger scale to happen though. DLC sized mods would be possible.

>There were retarded devils advocates everywhere.
No there weren't, fuck off.
It was virtually unanimous that they were a fucking terrible idea.
>>342714842
For the record, I may defend the concept but the execution was terrible. The revenue split was absurd. There should've been more consideration as to what deserved to cost money and what didn't. There should've been a "pay what you want" feature right out of the gate. And those are just the complaints I can remember off the top of my head.
I still like the concept though.
>>342714540
And they can get paid by making a standalone version that doesn't require them to give away 75% of the revenue while encouraging the original software creator to be a lazy shit because now not only will mods fix it, but now they can make money off those mods.
>CounterStrike
>Red Orchestra
>eighty thousand DOTA clones
>>342714842
Yeah, and such a thing would be totally unheard of without a scheme to monetize any decently sized mod available right?
>>342715051
Just ignore paidmodfags. They are too fucking dense to understand.
>>342712150
Reminder that literally no one defended this, which is why it was stopped.
>2 retards defend paid mods
>tens of thousands going apeshit at Valve
Yeah, no, we're not console gamers
>Sony 2013 at E3
>you can borrow games to your friends! (Nevermind that youve been able to do that since forever on anything)
>WOOOOOOOOW BASED SONY
>oh and now online play will be behind a pay wall
>BAAAASEEEED SOOONYYY THANK YOU SO MUCH
Meanwhile, Microsoft doesnt even try again to put a paywall on PC games nowasays becausw they know we wont support that shit. (And they tried it in the past)
>>342715416
Sony 2013 was probably more of a result of just how terrible the Xbox One reveal was than Sony actually doing something worthy of praise.
I don't think you can ever make a console reveal as bad as the Xbone, so by comparison anything Nintendo or Sony did that year was amazing even if it was unremarkable or also bad.
>>342714997
those are problems solved by the market

>>342715747
I don't care how much theh were taunting Microsoft, even if it was funny it's not an excuse to embrace with open arms the shit Sony decided to start evacuating
The very idea of this drives me up the fucking wall. It's so fucking grimy. They're getting other people to fix their broken, shallow games, making money off it, and not only that the person doing the work for them isn't even getting the biggest slice of the pie. It's fucking indefensible.
>>342712548
Can confirm.
>>342714975
>virtually unanimous
In the small 3 days those paid mods were up, it manage to sell dozens of thousands units. Offcourse there were more people complaining, but there was a substantial number of people defending it, talking about "free market", "if they want, let them buy it", etc.
>>342715416

Hey guys, just so you know, weapon skins are NOT paid mods, okay?
It's different when Valve does it because Valve cares about you because our lord & savior BASED GABEN loves us and cares for us. These aren't paid mods, these are blessings hidden behind a holy veil that costs $2.49 for the chance to access them.
#THANKYOUBASEDGABEN

There's a difference between a dev making content for their game to sell as DLC, specially cosmetic, and trying to monetize mods in the entire industry.
But you're retarded, so I don't even know why I'm wasting time with you.
>>342716398
Reddit was the most organized thing PC gamers had against it. Reddit is infested with normalfags with shit taste for humor but it has plenty of good uses, specially for finding specific porn.

Take pc mod and make it console mod
>>342712334
For The Fuckin' Yen?
You guys are being baited into oblivion
>>342717569
Basically somebody checking a flag on Creation Kit to make a mod usable on a console and then uploading it on Bethesda.net as their own without the original author's consent.
>Everyone was furious with them
>Valve apologizes
>The millions of valvedrones forgive them instantly, acting as if it never happened
How could they be so delusional? It's obvious that Valve would do this shit again if they could
>>342717756
And some of the mods even break the save games for console owners.
>>342715416
>implying console gamer's intelligence is even comparable to their pc overlords
