Speculations (?) From The Community

I know some of my readership might not care too much about gaming forums, but in light of recent developments regarding the revelation of Bethesda's plans for Skyrim modding I thought that you all might be interested in browsing this Nexus Forum thread, particularly the first post by the famous Robin "Dark0ne" Scott.

In my honest opinion, I think this might be the beginning of the end of game modding being any fun at all.

EDIT:

(Sorry. Yes, the thread is in the modder's forum, meaning that you have to have a Nexus upload that has been downloaded like 1000 times. It was only a month ago that I realized that I meet that criteria.)

Skyrim Nexus

It was recently announced here in the Nexus Forums that the Skyrim Nexus has already been launched in anticipation of the impending release of the game.

In the forum thread I concisely expressed my thanks to Dark0ne (a.k.a. Robin Scott) for his continued efforts as well as to the other Nexus members who have been keeping us abreast of the current Skyrim developments. Just for the record, that wasn't butt-kissing ('cuz I don't do butt-kissing).

To be perfectly honest, despite any disagreements I might have with the Nexus staff or their policies, the bottom line is that, were it not for the Nexus sites, the mods available there and the friends I've made there, my experiences with these games would have been greatly diminished.

Though it might be a while before I can actually afford to own the new game, I'm looking forward to it, more new mods, enjoying them with the friends I've made and perhaps even learning a few new modding tricks and making a few new friends along the way.
