You think selling mods would make Skyrim modding scene better off because GABE TOLD YOU SO!
You know what bro, you're getting awfuly boring with your silly PLANT!1!! bullshit. Be a grownup and try to accept people can disagree with you on internet without trying to be mean to you.
And your wall o' text is a hodge podge of legitimate concerns, fearmongering and narrow mindedness. If your underlying motive is the childish "moneyz spoilz everythingz" Occupy Wall Street hippie tosh, voiced by some of your palls itt, then there's no point arguing with you. If it's a concern about the cooperation between modders, then all I can say to you is - trade doesn't destroy cooperation. People can and do freely cooperate even in commercial sphere. Even big developers help each other all the time. Just read some of Dan Vavra's comments about their close relationship with Larian, CDPR and others.
And third, and probably most important - this wasn't supposed to be just about your stupid Skyrim. The reason I'm disappointed the entitled welfare queens didn't let that experiment to go on is because I don't give a fuck about the AAA production. I play mostly smaller games with much smaller player base. And googling mods for those can be real pain, especially if they're Russian or other non-English. Because even if you find a few modders putting some work into improvements, they sure as fuck can't afford to translate them.
As I said over and over - this was an interesting project that could've fallen flat in a year or two but it could've also exploded in something truly great. Sadly, it was quashed by stupidity, greed and entitlement of spoiled brats. That's all there's to it, all the bullshit rationalizations notwithstanding.
I'll not repeat the points the above but will just add on a bit:
do you know anything about Skyrim modding at ALL? How the mods are interdependent? Just an example - Chesko's mod was removed from paid workshop because it used fore's FNIS, which by the way, was the only way to add custom animations to skyrim because Beth fucked up and it became much harder than past TES. Fore, like the SKSE people, made skyrim modding possible and people are still using their tools. How this was implemented fragmented the community as people like fore are strongly against paid mods and people using his tools to monetize.
What is this, entitleception? Why are you so entitled? So people in the Skyrim modding community should just let Valve and Bethesda screw the community because of people like you who aren't even in the community and 'dont give a fuck about AAA production'?
Probably because this entitlement argument is stupid anyway, especially in this case.
