well guys, i'm gonna go back up my mods so i don't have to pay 50$+ to download them again.

Hahaha, yea... Just like you have to back up your entire Steam library so you don't have to pay 6,000 dollars to download it all again. Oh wait. Get your head out of your rear end. It's 2015. Nice to see, especially in today's political and economic climant, and considering that for a game like Skyrim in particular, where many great modders are doing comparable work of what we ignorantly might distinguish "Actual" developers, where people can get a little, you know... Compensation for there work, like back in the old and days. So this one goes out to the hard working modders! I wish you well and a pleasant bounty...

Having reread the post I might of made my own in the wrong context, since I thought he was just being snide about a hypothetical person buying 50$ of mods and then having to reinstall them later, rather then having them now and having to reinstall them later without being "grandfathered" in, so to speak. My apologies. The latter point of my post still stands.

Let's just be honest here, the vast majority of mods are garbage and what few good ones there are tend to come out a decade after anyone stopped caring about the game.

Or are just nifty little hud gui changes, those mods are cool, but lol at paying for that poo poo.

The game they debuted with, Skyrim, for like 6 years hasn't left the top seller list of steam probably largely based on mod support alone. Talk about developers riding on other people's work. Oh, but it's still somehow immoral to see that they get ANYTHING for there efforts, huh? gently caress you...Turd... Your part of the problem.

Look it up) pregnant with mods, and now he is taking away the mod community and replacing it in his own image. Gaben believes he is the hebrew God of the old testament. Newell (El means God).

like in the grand scheme of things it's a pretty meaningless dumb thing.

but anyone trying to pretend that this is meant to be some great boon to modders to totally give them the fair compensation they deserve (questionable at best for like 95% of mods to begin with) can eat a dick because this is a pretty transparent money grab by Steam.

It's really loving weird too, like isn't Steam wildly successful beyond their possible dreams at the get go. I assume they are making money hand over fist for being nothing but a glorified digital library for video games, so why push such a sketchy and controversial thing down people's throats now?

Did gabe develop a crippling gambling addiction?

Mhm, yes, definitely weird that the greatest businessman on earth has come up with yet again, another way to make money that, by the way, is not compulsory. If you only want to support free mods, then your perfectly at liberty. If you'd like to show some gratitude to mod makers who often went on nothing at all in the past, then now it's easier then ever.
