    Because they don’t make money from mods and this was an obvious cash grab from the beginning. If Bethesda had any good ideas they’d be making a game out of them. They don’t, so instead they’re reselling you the same game they already sold you 19 years ago with a fresh coat of paint on it. A million people will buy it anyway because nostalgia, Bethesda gets their money, and whatever happens afterward is not their concern.

    This is definitely untrue and the reason some games have 18,000 mods and some games have 0 is almost entirely down to developer cooperation.

    Sometimes if a game is using an existing engine that is known to be moddable, you can get a community built off of some pre-existing knowledge and kind of strike out on your own to build a mod. In most cases if the devs didn’t build the game with mod support in mind you’re not getting any mods.

    I think that’s a part of the message, actually. It’s repeated a lot in the Bible that Man is fallible and can be expected to sin in ways great and small. Even “God’s chosen people” are frequently tempted to sin and, indeed, fall to it. But there’s still a path to heaven for them afterward if they can put their heart into it.

    This prevents people from thinking “well I’m already a sinner so I best keep at it while I’m able to, since I’ll never be given an eternal reward” and gives some hope of actual proper rehabilitation even to the worst people. Even rapists and murderers can have the opportunity to truly repent and live good lives if they want to. It won’t wash away what you’ve done in the mortal world, but when you reach Heaven if your heart truly repents what you’ve done then you can be allowed inside. You can’t fake that though. God and the angels can see right to the heart of your emotions. If you aren’t serious about it you can and will be cast down instead.




  • My dad used to play some Mortal Kombat with me. Until one time, it was in my early teens, 13 or 14 maybe, I had been playing a lot of it recently and was just whooping his ass. Like 8-0 streak kind of ass beating. So he bet me $20 I couldn’t do it blindfolded.

    Well I did, I lost one round but won two to get the match purely off of sound cues and blind luck, and he paid me $20 and then never played a video game with me ever again.
