If you're a PC gamer you've become accustomed to the concept of mods and their bearing on the PC world. Over the years some games have been saved thanks to user mods while others have used them to greatly extend the life of there titles. So given the prevalence of mods I can't help but wonder if they couldn't be used more by developers.
What if developers bought mods from users and made them into patches?
A new Skyrim Switch 2 update delivers major visual upgrades, surpassing some console settings, but locks the game to 30fps and introduces noticeable input lag.
That's ridiculous, lol. I'm waiting for the guy that says its too cpu-intensive for the Switch 2. This game is old af and has been released like 17 times.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim lead designer Bruce Nesmith explains that the game's bucket stealth was an unintended feature of the game.
Lordbound is finally here.
I would love this.
Its a great idea for everyone involved. The mod creators get credit and attention for their projects. The developers get to make money on free content.
Its a win = win situation.
It would also lead to a standardization in quality when it comes to the mods. As any mod user will tell you, all mods are not created the same.
nope because then we'd have to pay for them in some way.
It would be a win win. Cause the modders get something, and the game would be fixed. Usually the modders make the game better (performance etc, [just judging on some games]).
But then I don't see this happening. Cause the developers could just hire the modders.
I know everyone hates COD, but the first mod that must be brought out if this were to ever happen is the Star wars Galactic warfare mod. Not too many people play it on PC anymore and it is fantastic, would be great to play on my big tv :)
Why would I want to buy a free user MOD from a developer?
Valve and a few others have done wonders for select 'mods', CS, Gary's MOD, but these weren't designed as a traditional free modification. Developers are more than capable of informing their consumers of mods/anything else they like through the usual methods, social networks, their forums etc meanwhile giving the credit where due.
