  Just let people enjoy things?

  Mods are great if you want more than the original gameplay experience, but it sounds like he’s perfectly happy with the base game and is tired of you constantly pushing mods on him. I think it’s great he can enjoy Skyrim without mods. I wish I could, because I end up spending just as long modding the game as I do playing.

  On the surface, it sounds like you want to be “right” regarding a mostly subjective topic. But if I read you correctly though it annoys you that he is dismissing the fact that mods can actually add to the experience in several, sometimes quite substantial, ways. If so, It is not even about the game, huh? It is more about his disability to acknowledge another opinion. I assume it would not urk you as much if he just states that it’s not for him - without strange reasoning like not done by Bethesda, therefore bad. However I don’t know your dynamics, maybe he is sick of discussing the case 😜 and if not, maybe you can learn a life lesson here - knowing which fights to take and realising at what point you’re dealing with a lost cause 😊

    Bethesda games serve as a framework in my mind.

    Its like a tech demo saying look at what we did with this engine and tools… The modders turn a game I play once or twice into…

    Wait, lemme math out the combined hours between versions… Over 3k hours. And that’s rookie hours, and some if my time was just pausing the game, going to bed then work, and resuming with steam counting the hours the game was idle but launched.

    Bethesda games are a great foundation to build upon, but modders keep me coming back to it. And buying different versions of the same game.

    Doom, and Eternal are different types of games, developed differently, for different purposes. Never found too many issues in either of those games. Most issues were skill issues, lol.

  It’s okay to be a purest.

  I also don’t “believe” in Skyrim modding, at least in terms of mods that fundamentally alter the game.

  However, I do make exceptions for eye-candy and bug-fixing mods.

  You can easily just point to Skyrim Special Edition enhanced or whatever they called it, with community made mods that were included in the base game by Bethesda.

  If Bethesda thought mods were good enough to ship as part of the base game… then there really isn’t any arguments for vanilla.

  Show him shlongs of skyrim. If he doesnt understand what mods can bring to the game after that then he never will.

  If he enjoys using glitches, he would love all kinds of mods that introduce new ones!

  Great timing. It’s been a year and I’m modding Skyrim again. XD

  Just drop him a link to the Skyrim section on loverslab and wait. He'll figure it out.

  Let him know it’s the only way to play Ultimate Skyrim [Warning, language]
