Your Most Beautiful Character

    Just becoming a pc gamer doesn't make you a whiny toddler, if someone's an elitist self-appointed prick and he's a pc gamer, it's not because of the fact that he plays on pc, it's because he has that kind of personality/mindset. As I said, I spent atleast half (probably even more) of my gametime using no mods, and I still look at the default game like a beautiful piece of art.

    But again, all DLC is content that was already in the game, but was cut to make extra money...

    I must say however i don't understand this anti-mod point of view.

    My opinion is it is fine to fiddle with the game you like, especially if the devs gave you the tools to do so.

    I have nothing against vanilla,choco-strawberry skyrim, played through several times and I would do so again.

    I like mods like frostfall and cloaks of skyrim... I would love to have that on my Xbox... And then I would never go to Windhelm or Winterhold or Dawnstar ever again unless I was a nord and/or suicidal.

    I just consider most mods to be pointless and/or ugly (graphical designs make some areas basically neon, enb mods make some characters look either the opposite gender or Barbie dolls, weapons look over the top)

    I live by the motto "just because I can, doesn't mean I should..."

    I actually seem to have an easier time creating characters that I really care about on Xbox for some reason, it's almost as if the mods distract me since I am so busy trying to create a "perfect" experience. I like that you can give your characters a more unique look, but I have to admit something I didn't think I would, as of now, I prefer unmodded Skyrim. Would love to have Frostfall and Moonlight Tales on Xbox though.

    Moonlight tales would make me love the fact that I can't cure lycanthropy.

    If a graphical mod is tuned well, it doesn't make anything look neon, enb mods don't make people look like barbie dolls, those are texture replacers made by horny retards who think Skyrim is supposed to be a barbie doll simulator. I, however agree that most of the mods on the nexus are those ugly, lore-breaking, over the top skimpy armors and female models that ruin my mood when I come across them.

    Again, let me express I don't hate mods... But for every frostfall, there are 500 DragonPorn's... For every moonlight tales, there are 50 dwarven mechanical dragons

    @Alduin, and this diminishes my point how? I said there are good mods, but they are buried by a bunch of prepubescent teenager's wet dreams

    When your logic is applied, the entire gaming scene would suck and not be worth it.

    ... My point is that while there is a mountain of bad, there are parts that are great -_-

    Yet every time modding comes up, you start about how there are way more bad ones and that modding is not worth it for you because of it. (Unless you suddenly had a change of heart)

    I have also stated multiple times that I like mods like frostfall and immersive creatures (forgot the exact name) and weapon/armor retextures... I don't just blindly hate them, I am simply sick of the majority of mods I see basically be for making women look like Barbie dolls and all of the other goofy/ridiculous things that I don't want to see... I can take a certain amount of goofiness in every game... Bear playing a lute while a terribly crafted together dwarven machine dragon is flying and attacking Dawnstar is over that limit...

    Just ignore the stupid shit, stop caring about it and focus on the good ones. Sites like Skyrimgems are really good if you can't even look at all the weird stuff at the Nexus.

    The second statement is my reaction to mods. Soon, though....

    @ Morta

    I don't mind using female body mods, but I have 2 reasons for doing so. 

    1. I want to make a character that is younger than 35 years old. 

    2. They take off the dirt. I mean seriously, does anyone even bathe in Skyrim?

    I always use the underwear options. And I refuse to use anything that doesn't have an underwear option, because it to me is sort of "lore breaking".

    @Saryn I didn't mean all female body mods (I use one as well) I meant the female body mods that make females look like barbie dolls. I have nothing against body mods because there are a few that are good, but the majority are those big breast barbie doll body models which were indeed made by horny nolife retards.

    Yeah. UNP is good. But all the others are a little ridiculous.

    Robina Blackheart, a Nord Ranger. My 2nd (and first female) character, most favorite character so far and the one I'm focusing my blog story on. Shots taken at level 13 in the Rift.
