Asmongold on NSFW mods

[xxmiamorecadenza]

ACT, Gpose, and the FFXIV launcher..

The amount of blacklash that would inevitably spread across the forums and twitter would be beyond entertaining to read.

As for me, I don't involve myself with the RP community, I'm apathetic toward the modders and I'm a bit 'meh' about raiding at the moment.

Of course, I'm starting to transition toward playing Gw2 more until Endwalkers and female Hrothgars drop - so I'm a bit more dethatched at this point.

I have played on Balmung sicne it began. I have never seen out right sex in any location (including the quicksand.) I know there is ERP on the server, but it's usually localized to houses or private chat. I have also never gotten any unsolicited tells regarding being propositioned. The statement that Balmung is an ERP server is false. Yes it is an RP server, but to think that it's just sex all the time is a blatant lie.

Uhh, in Limsa Lominsa. There were people saying sexual things right off the bat...

It's Ul'dah for us. It's only been getting worse since we ran out of apartments.

Legit just go to the royal areas where the foot traffic is limited. There's a solid chance you'll find two naked bunnies or cats.

And then there's 'the wall.'

I'll make sure to avoid and travel quickly through Ul'dah. I wish they could just do this over /tell, linkshell, or their homes or apartments. I don't want to be seeing this stuff to be honest.

Mods have been around for ages across all sorts of games and genres, and there's a considerable sized community for it. Some MMOs have even embraced that sort of thing; to some extent (like The Elder Scrolls Online and Guild Wars 2 with its officially supported addons). People are free to do as they please as long as it doesn't hurt anyone involved. Streamers and the media will always try to make a big deal out of these things, and it's best to just ignore it. It's not like all mods are bad, since the majority is still relatively SFW with a big focus on cosmetics and client-side fixes or QoL features.

Anyway, people acting lewd and out of line is something that would happen with or without these sort of things... I used to play TERA a lot back in the day. The game had chat moderation and the sorts, plus not a hint of a modding community by any means. Sexual harassment and blatant displays of public ERP happened all the time (even by people who just wanted to be edgy about it).

Very true. It would be very entertaining to read. Imagine it. People call for the removal of "nsfw" mods and SE in turn finally decides to ban ALL modding with enforcement. It would truly be glorious.

And I shall weep that my character will never have the long flowing locks I dream him to have...

And that'd be week-long period before people find another way to do it.

They did that in WoW, they could do that here as well.

I dont care about other people, as long nobody gets hurt. I m just minding my own business and so do others.

In my opinion, NSFW mods are not different than lewd fanart. Both may take a lot of time and talent to finish. ERP is not very different, it just misses the visuals.

I dunno, I wouldnt make a big deal about polygons.

But to be honest, I would totally love if SE would make some additions or changes in the character creation. You can barely create a ugly character, because of the limitations. But it would be nice to stand out a bit more by having additional options.
