If there's a mod for sale, then something is very wrong with that mod.

Tell that to the Minecraft community.
Ba-Zing!

How many 12years olds have access to their mommy's credit card number, do you think?

This is Elder Scrolls. Selling mods is illegal.

It is for minecraft, as well. The whiny bitches think they have "rights", though, for some reason.

Today is the 1 year anniversary of Skyrim. Crazy to see how far its come in just one year. Piles of mods, huge community. Bethesda has done well.

Piles of mods indeed. I'm not sure if I could play any Bethesda game without huge mounds of mods. It's part of the reason they're awesome. I mean, I look at some of the retextures for various armors, and I pee my pants. They're awesome. Why doesn't Bethesda hire these people to do textures for everything? Clearly they're a lot more skilled at it than the texture-making-people that they already have.

Having an unlimited amount of time, no style constraints, and no need to make them fit together with the work of another texture artist tends to increase the amount of flair textures have.

Also, they design these games for the greastest common denominator i.e. witg lower end pc in mind and more generic than not.  Its about the dollar as much as the audience.

While I mostly agree some of the textures are bad even if you consider their resolution. I guess this is where the time and money constrains come in.

Yeah, it's mostly about deadline pressures.  Those reduce quality.

Another factor is that modders are doing these projects out of love, and that makes a huge difference.  Industry professionals might love what they do, but it's still their job.  Modders are doing only what they want to.  Employees are doing whatever they're told to do, which is going to mean producing something they don't find interesting at least once in a while, and those products are going to show in the game.

So I am watching this Lets Play by somneone called Jesse.
And now I wish I could play the game with new eyes.
Back when the game was a whole new world to explore.
*sigh*

I remember seeing the aurora at the shrine of azura and thinking "that's purdy".  Now to get any enjoymentfrom it all I have to think "that's cool, but I'm gonna freeze to death in 120 seconds, so let's keep moving".

edit:  also, deadly dragon fight at the shrine.  Fairly epic.

[Ultimuh]

With the Personalzed music mod, I am on the quest of finding some music epic enough.
Now I am not asking for any illegal downloads,
just things that everyone are free to use without consequences.
Also, the they should fit Skyrim's general theme, no modern instruments or such.
Anyone want to help me with this search?

So whats the biggest/best Skyrim mod in terms of features, not content?
