My grandma puts butter and peanut butter on her sandwiches and I can't fathom how you could like that.
creamed corn is superior
[QUOTE=kpjVideo;52594116]creamed corn is superior[/QUOTE] I hate cream corn so goddamn much
[QUOTE=Headhumpy;52592940]all pringles are awful. buy real potato chips.[/QUOTE] I'm amazed that this isn't a more popular opinion. As someone who eats an obscene amount of chips, they taste so starchy and bland compared to literally any other brand of chip.
I don't really like the taste of butter too much, I prefer something like olive oil instead.

I don't understand the problem with paying for mods. The creator of the mod put time and effort into it, so why not get something in return for the work?
[QUOTE=nerdster409;52595992]I don't understand the problem with paying for mods. The creator of the mod put time and effort into it, so why not get something in return for the work?[/QUOTE] Time and effort is the exact issue for most people. If great mods became paid then people wouldn't have such an issue. But when tiny or effortless mods become paid it's a problem. And since mods are much more hit or miss than professionally developed stuff it's a bigger gamble over whether you're getting something worthwhile too.
[QUOTE=bloboo;52592944]all chips are awful, make cookies instead[/QUOTE] How are these even comparable?
[QUOTE=nerdster409;52595992]I don't understand the problem with paying for mods. The creator of the mod put time and effort into it, so why not get something in return for the work?[/QUOTE] I've noticed that when finances become the driving force for something, quality takes a turn for the worse. Plus, I don't really agree with paying for unofficial content that could be potentially broken or incompatible with something else and never get a fix because it's a niche issue between two specific mods rather than one mod and the game or DLC. Depending on how Bethesda handles Creation Club, I might be okay with it. If everything on there is high-quality, low-impact, and not fucking stupidly priced, I'm not gonna mind a reserve of what's basically outsourced DLC that [I]should[/I] be guaranteed to work.
[QUOTE=gk99;52596422]I've noticed that when finances become the driving force for something, quality takes a turn for the worse. [/QUOTE] There's so many counterexamples and so few examples of this it's not even funny. How about "I'd love to work on some project, but I just can't fit the hours of free labor in because rent" ? [quote]Plus, I don't really agree with paying for unofficial content that could be potentially broken or incompatible with something else and never get a fix because it's a niche issue between two specific mods rather than one mod and the game or DLC.[/quote] This might be a little controversial, but why not? If a mod is reasonably priced, disabling another mod and getting a few hours of entertainment out of a 2 dollar mod is well worth the money. And a good enough marketplace can solve this if people are given the ability to mark mods as broken/outdated, and also mark incompatibilities. Most mod incompatibilities are relatively common sense. There could also be a refund system set into place based on a mod being broken or not. The gmodstore generally works well, for one example. The worst concern I see for paid mods is copyright and trademark issues. Beforehand most companies wouldn't really care if you made my little pony skyrim dragons that you fight with starwars lightsabers and dragon ball z shouts, because it was a low-profile game mod stuck to another game made for free by volunteers, with basically nil chance of it being monetized or really harming their trademark. Mods becoming regularly a paid thing may change that and get companies to start paying attention and start enforcing their trademarks more. Which would suck, fan mods utilizing properties like star wars are sick as fuck. The other main problem is license conflicts between other mods and software. For example, the skyrim script extender doesn't really have a license stuck to it, which technically means that you AREN'T legally free to modify it, use it in your mod, and hell, in some countries you legally can't even run it without a license. People are only able to use it because the owners don't do anything about it. If it remained like this, it could be a pretty dangerous thing in the paid mod landscape since many mods have dependencies.
Nippon Ichi Software should make a written apology for Cladun X2's PC port. No, Disgaea won't magically undo the consequences of Cladun's failure and having experienced disappointment with other Japanese developers since 2013, my first thought with FFXV isn't "oh boy, FFXV's on PC", but rather "Oh boy! I can't wait to see the next developer that will make life terrible for people who want more Japanese games on PC"

Skyrim DLC just has supremacy, so it overrides the incompatibilities and it can make them cooperate properly. It does this for things like werewolves and vampires. Paid mods can do the same thing, and they more than likely will as it expands their customer-base and stops them from getting bad reviews. Hell, in this situation, they'd have MORE motivation than otherwise to improve compatibility. And that example you gave is what I mean by common sense, most mod incompatibilities are because two mods touch the same thing, which makes the game freak out and tell you to fix your shit. I'm sorry game engines don't work in a way that lets you replace the same thing multiple times at once?

I can easily excuse shit being broken when it's two free mods, but I expect shit I pay for to work with other shit I pay for. I don't want to have to go "man I wonder if this works with [x], let's hope!" every time I find anything that makes worldspace modifications whenever I'm having to drop cash on it. I don't want some shitty unregulated wild west of mods, and that's what every attempt at paid mods has been so far. I want everything on that marketplace to work together perfectly, because if they're giving me microtransactions and DLC, that's how I'm going to treat it, unofficial or not.
So some authors with potential incompatibilities means people shouldn't be paid for their work? And that's because bethesda made them work. Mod authors can do the same if their users ask them to. Skyrim mods are inherently editable and view-able. The content being paid doesn't matter, the content is DESIGNED to be utilized within a certain use-case. With the stock game, DLCs, any explicit compatibility workarounds, and an otherwise clean space that the mod works within. It's not that hard and it's incredibly unfair that anyone doing anything complicated and big can't be paid for their work.
Nidhogg 2 looks great.
"freedom of speech does not mean freedom of consequences" is about power worship. the tone suggests that the "consequences" just happen, (like the weather) but its pretty bullshit because it's obvious that the speaker is the one who will bring those consequences about, and what limits those consequences is how much power he can wield against you and get away with in other words, "might makes right" given the disinhibition brought about by the internet that leads to online shame mobs, and the massive incestuous network of corporate power in silicon valley, this leads to a level of privatized, decentralized censorship and tyranny previously unheard of, over which the law and ordinary civil society has no control whatsoever. the victim has no recourse to the law, no recognised advocate, no chance for people to hear his side of the story, no way to appeal his sentence. a single wrong move, and he loses his job, people spit on him (or stab him) in the streets, nobody wants to do business with him. if you can pressure internet companies into no-platforming someone, it's really not a big leap to say that you can pressure supermarkets into not selling him food and utility companies into cutting off the electricity and water (as long as its not the government, its fine and you are allowed to do this) on the other hand, the consequence-bringers face no real punishment if they overstep or get the wrong person. the only way they face any pushback is if they pick on someone who can fight back with equal (or greater) force. free speech therefore becomes a luxury of the wealthy, and those with nothing to lose
[QUOTE=Skyward;52598038]Nidhogg 2 looks great.[/QUOTE] I'm ok with modifying stylistic choices to a degree and I'm OK with Nidhogg changing stylistically to expand upon the previous game The artstyle itself though is kind of meh. It's not really good but its not bad. it's just forgettable.
