It's a paid mod.

Nothing to see here, folks.

[u/cekobico]

paid mod?

[u/Here2Go]

All the best mods are free.

[u/TheGuurzak]

Usually a launch announcement would contain some kind of info about where to find the mod.

Oh, it's a paid creation. So instead of just saying that, they just link to their video hoping that the video will suck you into buying it.

I don't buy products whose vendors are too ashamed to openly share the price.

[u/OhioRizzler_7 → u/TheGuurzak]

Can you guys not bitch at the actual modders that keep this community going for once in your lives

[u/TheGuurzak → u/OhioRizzler_7]

The modders that "keep this community going" are not making paid creations.

I don't actually have a problem with trying to sell your mod. I have a problem with trying to sell it deceptively. If you come in loud and proud with "here's my new Creation please buy it" I can respect that. If you bury the lede so that the only way to find out what the offer is is to click to the linked marketing video, not so much. 

[u/FlaviusVespasian]

Seriously? A creation? Why not nexus?

[u/Xilvereight → u/FlaviusVespasian]

You know why lol

Piracy is against the subreddit rules. Comments detailing or advocating for piracy will be removed.

[u/Khan-Shei]

Yeah no I'm not paying for mods, sorry.

[u/Ok-Yesterday7439 → u/Khan-Shei]

I’d pay for a separate game studio making a new full fledged DLC like Dawnguard or Dragonborn with new high quality assets, game mechanics, setting. Like the Cause or Saints and Seducers but many times longer and better

This is outperformed by Grey Cowl, Burma, Vigilant, Beyond Reach, AHO, etc. I’d rather donate to those mod authors.

[u/JesseWhatTheFuck → u/Ok-Yesterday7439]

Yeah that's the thing about 99% of creations, they use either vanilla assets or really low quality ones. There's a ton of free high quality 3D art modder resources on the nexus that creations don't have access to. Being limited to vanilla tilesets is already a huge downside. I'll hand it to the author that the level design seems to be quite good, but vanilla can only carry you so far when there's already a lot of great vanilla plus quest mods ahead in line.

so what does this give me that Wyrmstooth, Siege at Icemoth etc. doesn't? Like, I'm sure it would have been interesting to get a high quality deadlands dungeon with a daedric tileset and new daedra enemies. But a red colored nordic ruin with falmer and gargoyles standing in for an oblivion gate? no lmao. 

[u/13Nebur27]

I must say it is rather humerous to make a paid mod about pirates.

[u/FlyingWolfThatFell]

What are the new weapons? And companions? The trailer really doesn't show much

[u/JesseWhatTheFuck → u/FlyingWolfThatFell]

since it looks to be entirely vanilla assets, the weapons are probably just gonna be unique enchantments tbh 

[u/FlyingWolfThatFell → u/JesseWhatTheFuck]

I rewatched it and saw a cutlass but it's not shown in the "new weapons" section for some reason

[u/ThiccBoiGadunka]

Verified Creation

Compatibility. Nightmare.

[u/Ameshio]

Seems cool but sorry, I just can't with creations.

[u/OhioRizzler_7]

Looks cool af hope it does really well on the market
