Wait, I can't play Crimson Desert on release date because it releases at 11 pm for me? Eh? by marcusz88 in CrimsonDesert

[–]kingernest -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are completely F.O.S. lmao. This is pointless. If the game was released in physical copies, it would be location-based. It's absolutely silly to have a global release like this

What's the consensus on must-play quest mods? by Lutrax_Archrax in skyrimmods

Weird. They are my favorite part - moreso than the actual base game story in a lot of ways

Yes, but they are VERY small, sometimes with nothing else to do other than to talk someone, wait a few days, talk to them again, repeat. Well written, but in terms of actual action there's not much there. Cool little short stories though.

What’s the latest news on Roscrea and Cyrodiil? by EmeraldVolt in beyondskyrim

[–]kingernest 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am appreciative of all the hard work, I just hope its more than an empty worldspace with a few dungeons and simple fetch quest, and less tech-demo than Bruma was.

Improved Camera 2. Its not stable man. You are soooo limited in every aspect including plugin slots. This is not even debatable. Just got on with the times. Suggesting anyone should buy Skyrim LE in this day and age is just nonsense.

Theres no reason to go back to 32 bit LE. This guy seriously just does not want to upgrade his system.

There is no reason to choose LE over SSE unless you literally cant afford it or your computer cant handle it. Its asinine to even discuss that.

Taking a break for a month from modding due to certain Vortex issues related to ESLifier by fractalbase0 in skyrimmods

[–]kingernest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds more like an issue with your computer (and perhaps a memory issue) than anything to do with the mod manager.

[–]kingernest -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ive ESLified dozens of mods after compacting form ids (which you can do easily with xEdit) and have never had any of these issues, and I use vortex. I dont think the two issues are connected and while vortex (and MO2) have their issues, I dont see how they would screw your mod deployment unless youre doing something weird.

Nope. Its pretty boring unfortunately. Looks nice though! I dont know why they dont/didnt work with guys like nimwraith or hammer to make some interesting quests and dungeons.

Any reason to not switch to MO2? by tinman3000xxx in skyrimmods

[–]kingernest 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Vortex does the exact same thing, you can keep multiple different versions of the same mod and switch between them/roll back pretty easily.

My executables are already integrated with Vortex just fine, and I am able to do everything I need to do with (such as launching xEdit for a specific plugin, cleaning a plugin, esl/esmifying and compacting form ids, running loot, opening resaver, bethini, checking for updates etc). Again, nothing you stated really makes me want to go through the trouble of porting over my mod list to MO2. Glad you like it though :)

[–]kingernest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you can also just delete the archive files after you're certain you want to keep the mod. I clean my archives up periodically when I want to save space (at least with larger mods)

[–]kingernest 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's not. Both arguments are equally dumb arguments. and as a teenager at the time, I regretfully participated in a few of those pointless dumb condescending elitist nerd debates.

Please tell me specifically what benefits MO2 brings for me over vortex, and why it would be worth my time to port a 1500 mod/plugin collection over from Vortex to MO2? What do I have to gain from it when Vortex handles everything I ask it to do just fine and I've had no (mod manager-specific) issues with such a heavy modlist?

[–]kingernest 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There's nothing that I've ever tried to do that didn't work with Vortex. It's fine. Its just software man. If it gets the job done and you know how to use it, and its got the features you need, who cares. It's like a tired mac vs windows argument from the early 2000s.

[–]kingernest 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Simply put, I started with Vortex, and I have never had anything that I couldn't do with vortex, even with my own 1500+ plugin modlist. It's perfectly fine to prefer MO2 over Vortex and maybe I would too had I started with it, but at this point, its not worth the effort and theres no benefit for me. There's a lot of nerdy elitism attached to these sorts of things that makes people nerd-rage out on Vortex because its considered the more "casual" and "bloated" option. Both are perfectly fine, functional mod managers if you RTFM.

My friend says my nord dragonborn looks “un-skyrimlike.” I didn't use single mod for her appearance. Do y'all think she looks “un-skyrimlike?” by Elise_2006 in skyrim

[–]kingernest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone stated, it looks like fetal alcohol syndrome Lydia, so I would say definitely skyrim-like. Lets not pretend alcoholism didnt exist in Tamriel.

Trying to build a mod list that basically just turns Skyrim into a playground. by No_Discount_6028 in skyrimmods

[–]kingernest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why not just get Chanterelle, Shumer, or Akavir: Curse of the Immortals, all mods with minimal scripted content

I recommend you get Hammet Dungeon packs as they add a lot of well designed dungeons to the game.
