Every once and awhile a fan makes a mod. Every once and awhile multiple fans make mods 'specifically' for me to review. Every once and awhile I view such mods and have to contain the fury from my trembling hands before I slam my fists into my monitor.
It's not that I don't appreciate these mods, it's the blatant fact that they don't seem to realize that they're exactly the mods I would normally tear apart or more likely not review at all because...they don't mod ANYTHING! Do they honestly sit in their rooms and say 'Hey...you know what Al hasn't reviewed in awhile.....a sniper rifle with absolutely nothing different from the original...except my gun will kill everything in a ten mile radius! YEAH! Then his game will crash lolz'
The mod's I've been sent over the past week are just that. They're all simple GECK stat edited 'god weapons' with a bare minimum effort of simply opening the program, changing some numbers, then sending off the mod to my inbox. Now I'm one of the first people that loves when people get into modding, and encourage it whenever I can. But modding for the sole purpose to get your name in one of my videos for some reason just unnecessarily infuriates me.
There are tons of tutorials, people that want to help, and a near limitless amount of ideas that can be created for mods. But 'god weapons' and simple 'Follow Me' companions are at the bottom of the "I'm not even going to crap on this" pile.
TLDR; Stop making fucking shitty mods!
I don't know why I'm so angry about this, maybe it's cause it's late, maybe it's cause I'm a douche, either way I really enjoy commas at the moment apparently, , , , , , Hey! Get back here!

Where are you going comma?
Thank you for posting on your blog again, even though you were in a not-happy mood in this post. Still good to read and see that you are human and can get mad at people who just want a "shout out" from you so they can get popular.
ReplyDeleteAll we only see when you comment, is commenting nicely back to people with rude comments. Which is good that you don't argue back with people.
I guess I'm just trying to say that, I feel like I know you a little bit better after reading about one of the things that makes you angry.
AMEN! I've NOT made a mod for exactly this reason. If I'm going to make an mod for Albert Chest Breach, of Lunar YouTube fame, I'm going to do these things: 1. Quest mods should not be super linear. 2. Weapons mods should have custom textures, at the very least. Also, not too clean, it IS a wasteland, after all. 3. Companions and MPCs should have decent audio. Voice acting is a plus. They should also have speech options that make sense.(Want some food? No. Okay.) These are just basics that I've picked up on from watching your videos, and I've never even seen the GECK. Also, I would never make a mod for a "shout out," I would genuinely want you to enjoy playing. In fact, I'll start writing something, and my awesome husband will make it for me, and we'll post it for you to play. Our only condition is that you never ever tell who sent it to you. :)
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of godlike weapons and mods, you never did the review for the cube experimental end-reward weapons. I was really looking forward for that since the weapons looked nice AND you promised to test them! so if you could spare a bit of your valuable breachin' time to make that vid i would highly appreciate your efforts of making our lives a bit more saucy.
