Sad to say, but despite the apparent intelligence levels of the people who make some of this poo poo, I have never been able to wrap my head around building environments in one of these games. I just can't seem to figure out how to get those loving editors to work to create even a simple cave and attach it to a door somewhere in the world, a door that I also place somewhere in that world.

I am never going to be happy that places where people have clearly started to reclaim the land and live again still look like a garbage dumb exploded everywhere. Someone, grab a loving broom, sweep that poo poo out of here. You've been living here for years, you can do better than a torn up sack of bags as a mattress, there's a house down the street with beds and poo poo. Why haven't you taken some boards or something and fixed some of the holes in the roof? It doesn't have to look like a loving master carpenter came through and repaired poo poo, but people should still look like they've actually cleaned their little homes and done some maintenance.

There seems to be this weird thing where Japanese modders will pour their hearts and souls into some incredible, well modeled and designed poo poo (even if it's a bit reprehensible/creepy), while the Western modders who make the most noise will try to do the same thing except then they smear their poo poo all over it halfway through, declare it realistic, and masturbate in their Nexus-sponsored hugboxes while being told how great their excrement-riddled dildo doll is by other people whose standards come up to about the level of gunk I scrape off my shoe.

Midnight Voyager posted:It's harder to make changes after the fact. It's harder to make a lot of words in the game because then you need to voice a lot of words and that costs money and the sound files all take up space and aaaaaa Yeah, one thing to remember is that in stuff like Baldur's Gate, they were still adding text and lines right up to the end of production. They could expand whatever dialog they wanted, because it was all just blocks of text. When you voice act stuff, suddenly that poo poo needs to be locked in real early, so you can set up sessions, schedule everything, sync the files, edit, etc. You can't just look through the story later and go "ok, this poo poo isn't working, we need to expand this and this, rework this, and trim this, go grab the voice actors and let's get this knocked out". That costs money, time, and effort, none of which are in high supply at crunch time. So you have to be committed to that poo poo in a way unvoiced-text-only stories don't necessarily have to be.

CJacobs posted:It's impressive because it's created completely from scratch which, whether they're using the original game's models and textures or not, is incredibly difficult to do as well as they've done it. The reason it's worth nodding at and going "neat" is because it looks exactly like Fallout 4, except it was made by a few people in their spare time instead of a team of hundreds. Except that the reason it looks like Fallout 4 isn't that it's a small group of people recreating it, it's because it's literally being built in Fallout 4 with some modified assets. It's not "from scratch" at all.

Archonex posted:Granted, it seems like the Slab modders have been winding down these past few years given that no one has posted any really new and particularly egregious examples of their stuff here to gawk at and make fun of. Maybe because they kinda peaked with that horrifying parasitic porn mod? Honestly, you aren't getting creepier than that thing. There hasn't been a really moddable Elder Scrolls/Fallout style game in a few years. Hasn't been much opportunity to make something for a new game like them, so I think people are just a bit burned out. Whenever a sequel releases, I'm sure you'll get a flood of creative, inventive, high-class vaginaswords and robobrothels.

I think some modders are just forgetting that they're modding a game, not creating entirely new works in a medium of their own making. If you want to have absolute control of your work in perpetuum, you should probably not upload it to the internet on an aggregator site. You should especially not upload it when you've designed it to be an extension of a work you don't control, you're using an API you didn't personally design and license, you provide instructions in its use, and especially when you make a name for yourself by doing so multiple times. The moment you make your work available to the public, additional copies are now out there. Unless you are providing the hosting yourself, the copies of the files are not entirely your property, and because you released them to the public through the aggregator, you're the one to blame. Basically, if you want full control of your mods and their distribution and existence, uploading them to the public on a website designed to spread them far and wide is the dumbest possible thing to do. Idiots who are surprised by this have only themselves to blame.

Ok but: In this scenario, the mod was uploaded to the internet. You're not talking about a mod that was designed purely for personal use or use among a small group of friends. You're talking about mods that are released onto the wider internet. A modder is not forced to upload their mod to the internet. Uploading to the wider internet is something that has to be done purposefully, and almost universally in a way that leads to "Look at my mod, isn't it neat, here you guys can play with it too". At that point, several issues come into play over how much control the modder can have over distribution of something they willingly released. Licensing and for profit usage are complicated, but you don't just go to the Nexus and hit there "here's my mod, have fun" button. There's a multitude of steps to go through, since you're specifically sharing this piece of code. These are not fully formed, self-contained games either. They require another frontend to function. Which complicates the issue even more.

The Iron Rose posted:Just because you upload something to the internet does not mean you do not retain rights over how it is used. I consent to the Nexus having control of my poo poo as part of their Terms of Service, but that doesn't mean I consent to, idk, the Stormfront Mod Forum hosting it. Right, but I'm not talking about legally. I'm talking about how the internet just simply works. You put your stuff out there, especially for people to use, and suddenly copies are everywhere. Even if you have legal control of its usage and distribution, once it's out there in the open, you can't actually destroy all copies. My point is that the only way to actually be able to take your ball and go home in all aspects with mods is to never release the mod to the public in the first place. There are inherent risks and realities that come with making a piece of work publically available, especially in a medium where lossless copies are the norm.

Tankbuster posted:All those community patches you seem to rely upon so heavily actually strip out the bulk of the fun but bullshit stuff bethesda left in Skyrim. The base game has an insane alch-ench-blacksmithing feedback loop that modders strip out because its wildly broken. Levitation couldn't be added in oblivion or skyrim because the hardware on which the games were designed for couldn't support a seamless map. Morrowind also had wildly basic NPC schedules in comparison to later games and less systems in general. A hell of a lot of successful immersion mods in skyrim generally hook into systems that were in the base game.Skyrim is when bethesda added things like the basics of a settlement system with constructible housing; a crafting system that was expanded upon in fallout 4 etc. The skyrim skill-perk system is also a departure from fallout because you actually have to use the skills ingame if you want your character to get better. Bethesda took out Levitation in Morrowind, in the Tribunal expansion. It wasn't an engine limitation, it was them deciding that it was too hard to work around the idea that the player might be able to float. Each game becomes more and more streamlined, removing stats and rolling things into less and less specialized systems. At this point you may as well have two stats that amount to "Gun/Bow" and "Not Gun/Bow" for your weapons, and then about four or five "extra" stats they jam all the non-weapon skills into. Whether or not you think that's better than the earlier games' more esoteric and varied systems is in some ways subjective. What isn't subjective is the fact that the games are becoming simpler and simpler system wise, and yet Bethesda still can't manage to put one out without it being a broken mess. Beyond building settlements, a system that was in itself buggy as gently caress, Fallout 4 has some of the simplest mechanics in the series. Yet it was still a nightmare of glitches and scripting errors and just plain poor and unpolished design decisions. Asking a developer to make a game that loving works without exploding into a million pieces when you look at it funny should just be expected. Bugs happen though, and at least these days we can patch games. When you consistently release broken messes that you then refuse to fix for years, including rereleasing them multiple times for over a decade with massive and glaring issues still unaddressed? No, that's not "progress", that's just sheer incompetence. Modders being able to hook into undeveloped systems and expand them does not show that the systems were well thought out; it shows that the systems were kludged in, poorly designed, and incredibly lacking, and the developers left them that way. Bethesda makes games with large, expansive worlds, and they populate those worlds with half finished systems and broken scripting, and run them on software that was showing its age back in the loving Oblivion days.

7c Nickel posted:Challenge Time! It wasn't. Morrowind wasn't a perfect game. It was horribly broken and buggy and the combat system was jank as gently caress. It was, of course, a Bethesda game. It was also a game running on much weaker hardware, that had much more decentralized stats, more weapon types, and more player-equipped items to keep track of. The point is that Bethesda keeps streamlining their systems, and yet they still keep being broken messes. It's been decades since Morrowind, yet the games have arguably regressed in terms of both game design and stability.
