  • I’m glad you can play Fallout 4 without mods. I really just use mods that make the experience better than vanilla such as:

    The AWFUL dialogue options they did for Fallout 4
    The bad voice acting for my character
    The lack of options for character creation
    The lack of diversity between characters and the armor/guns they use And any cool clothing/armor/weapon mods I would like to use or add to my companions
    OH and changes to the AI for the companions and enemies to make them just a wee bit better than just standing there in the open like a fool

    The Witcher 3 has had plenty of very good mods, though. And modding is so important to people that CDPR is releasing a whole ass modding kit, so…


  • Without mods, Bethesda’s games would not have been so consistently played since:

    2011 for Skyrim’s FIRST release
    2014 for Fallout 4’s FIRST release

    Saying that mods aren’t important, is actually kind of weird. Without those mods keeping the games afloat through the internet ether, they would not be AS popular as they are today.

    People STILL play Fallout 3 and New Vegas TO THIS DAY, because of mods that LITERALLY allow the game to be played as crash free as possible.

    From that context, I would assume mods are pretty damn important for these games.




  • In my opinion, the best way to ensure your game stays relevant for YEARS after its release is to incorporate mod support in any way, whether it be Steam mods, or something like Nexus mods. Both would be preferable, but anything is better than nothing.

    How many people would still be playing Skyrim today if there were absolutely no mods allowed like some games?

    How many would be playing GTA 5, or even RDR 2 without SOME kind of mods making it more enjoyable or completely different?

    Just allow your games to be modded, and support mod development, and your game will go down in history, I am almost positive of.
