The skyrim modding landscape has got so much worse in recent years, so many mod users are so self entitled, dumb, and very demanding it's so disappointing seeing this niche area getting so much worse thanks to more and more people flocking to it

It's hard to say tbh, Skyrim offers a great base to mod off of, the scripting system is very strong too(only held back but slow refresh times) and tools are freely available and easy to uae to create these mods, I assume aswell the fact there's not been another TES game to pull people away and the general state of gaming over the last decade, people are going back to it

Also tons of people myself included make mod lists but never play

There's an add on that lets you create custom containers, a container acts as it's own session in a way, content, cache, cookies etc are all localised to one container

For example, you open youtube in one then open gmail in another container, neither one will know you're logged into the other

"Delta Force will be a cross-platform game for consoles, PC and mobile."

If Tencent wasn't wrong enough, it being on mobile takes the cake

It's a shame as Black Hawk Down was such a beloved game, way back

I've been giving Blood a go, I missed out on a lot of shooters back in the day so when I play them now you can see how many modern games were inspiresd by these old giants, it's also really obvious why people love this game and have used it for inspiration

You say easy installation of mods, but an alarming large amount of people still fail to install mods correctly

Sorry, I didn't read your message as a complaint about the tools be easy, but making things accessible will defo bring in larger numbers of people, sadly :(

Moderation is not the issue, the sheer cost to host the tremendous amount of data is very likely to be a reason an instance goes down, thats what I'm getting at

Stylus has been a pretty newish one for me, been using it a lot to make Lemmy feeds wider and take up my entire screen

There's also a convert webp to anything extension that is really handy to have

Video download helper is cool too

Video download helper is a bit funny with youtube videos, iirc it adds a water mark to any you dl, as it wants you to donate, if you don't wanna donate just get ytdlp gui to get your YouTube videos

Video download helper works great for other videos that are sometimes hard to find the url of

Ah yeah the modding tools being very new user friendly is defo a big thing that has lead to this, I think the lack of a new TES game and the insane explosion of high quality popular mods has brought more people into the scene too

Oracle remakes maybe?

It used to be able to support all desktop addons but they for some reason took that away a while back

Been looking forward to this for a while now, got so many retro fpses to play through, the list just keeps growing

I didn't know it was a mass rewrite, I just assumed they ruined the UI and features to "keep" up with mobile chrome, as most of these big tech companies do

It's really not, when it's been proven time and time again that more people doing something ruin that something it should become obvious that lots and lots of people is a detriment

The reddit front page is a classic example of that, the general state of the internet proves it too, beaches/music festivles are both great examples too

That's not even thinking about the cost of everything and corporate meddling either

I have played Fear! I think I've played both 1 and 2, they were great run and gun games

There's a giant push to really hate on Starfield, all over the internet

I remember people hating on Skyrim when it came out, then Fallout 4, surprisingly not Fallout 76, you are right they never lied about it or promised stuff we didn't get, I don't really have interest in the game so I haven't been following it to much but I don't recall there being any classic Toddisms either

Starfield is as Generic Bethesda as it gets(which is a good thing) they didn't introduce shit from other AAA games, like you said, no annoying Battle pass, day one DLC etc and other than early access, was there preorder bonuses?

The hate just seems odd, I can get the hate for most AAA shit but it seems really misplaced for StarField

You're right about the branding, nothing to me sticks out for the series's brand, maybe they didnt want another vault boy esq thing, so the game could stand alone, I dont know

Also, I guess also the cutscenese/animations everywhere, launching ships, docking, landing can get annoying, I understand the complaints about those

Everything is fast travel and loading screens. You’re right. This has been the complaint about every Bethesda game since day 1. I remember loading screens in Daggerfall. Yes, games with different focus and different engines have mastered seamless landing and takeoff. Yes, I’m sure Bethesda could have added that, or faked it. But they made clear a year ago we’d be seeing load screens for those things, so nobody should’ve expected otherwise.

Sorry, I'm not talking load screens, as, well, that's a thing you can't avoid and it's silly to want that, what I mean is when you dock a ship, when you land a ship, when you furniture or something, those animations, like fallout 4, there's mods that skip these animations, they're cool like once or twice but it's silly that they happen all the time, just take us to a load screen as soon as we press the button :(

I'm not sure, but I feel like they don't? I'm more happy with just a load screen than one animation followed by a load screen

I'll take your word for it! As I haven't played the game, I've only seen mods and some random streams of it

One of the main reasons reddit mega turned to shit was due to far too many people joining and using it, granted this is due to mobile phones but is it really worth it to attract more and more people? These instances are run by average people not corps with money they can easily collapse under tuw burden of to many

I like how you ignored the examples I gave you

Depends if they're Authoritarian or not, most lefties nowadays are unfortunately far to Authoritarian and miserable, they don't really care about actual liberal values and instead just want censor anyone who thinks differently to them, much like extremely religious people :/

It's currently a shitty left wing echo chamber, pretty sure a right wing one wouldn't be any worse

They wouldn't dare call out Islam for something like this or worse :\
