Nexus Mods Explains Why It Reinstated Mod Replacing Body Types With Male And Female In 'Oblivion Remaster'
Nexus Mods reinstated the mod that replaces body types with male and female for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remaster and explained why they originally banned it.This Substack is reader-supported.
Don't get me wrong, they're still woke morons, but I am actually surprised by the move.
SJWs usually double-down. This seems out of character for them.
Perhaps they realize that alienating the user-base of an eminently moddable blockbuster game is a stupendously stupid move?
I think a lot of SJWs are just starting to realize that this is a losing issue for them and so you're starting to see some soft backpedaling in order to test the waters and appear more centrist and reasonable than they really are. After all, the right has 2 main advantages right now, immigration and trans ideology. If they backpedal on these 2 issues than the normies WILL come back, despite what people on this site will tell you. Especially since the right, as of right now, is like a shih tzu: capable of barking really loudly and for prolonged periods of time, but are ultimately small, weak, and wont put up much (if any) fight.
Agreed. They're reaching around grasping to see if a new strategy works. Normally when they have a losing strategy they just go full denialism: "The Biden Economy is the strongest in history". "There were no riots in 2020." "The vaccine is 100% effective." "There has been no increase in crime in New York." "Critical Race Theory is not being taught in schools." "Critical Race Theory is to abstract to even define."
However, anything with Trans stuff must reject the gender binary, so it's hard to do anything but double-down or give ground. You can't deny it and say: "Everyone has always used Body Type 1 and Body Type 2 to express gender."
They did try to say that "Pan-Gender Bathrooms have always existed" in regards to Dead Space, but that's because they tried to re-define "Family Restrooms" and "Communal Bathrooms" as "Pan-Gender".
Back in my day we called those unisex bathrooms.
Or a hole in the ground.
Unironically, they were saying unisex were "pan-gender"
Good assessment of how we got to here, but as for where this goes now...
It's going to be biblical.
Seriously though. Not just fist pumping and flag waving, but rather the whole world will change right here and now. There is a very clear reason why this gospel of absolute equality has arisen, and how the very same ideology has played out in the past is well known. What's new this time, however, is that mass travel/communication have the potential to significantly upend the established script where society is supposed to explode with anger.
The important thing is you can still make stunning and brave creations like these.
It's 'The Adventures of UglyShep' all over again!
Ralph, please leave.
Stop making me want to play it.
... Oblivion really did have the most innane, but fun, Character customizer ever.
I have never spent more time in a character creator.
A round of applause for these realistic trans-inclusive character avatars.
That's one victory. Let's see what happens if someone tries to mod back in the sexual dimorphism of the original (males have higher starting strength and endurance, females have higher personality and willpower). The remaster took that out and replaced it with a 'background' toggle.
Higher Will power !?
Heard one theory that because Nexus mods is based in the UK, the recent supreme Court ruling might have gotten them to give up on this one or just they actually see the way the wind is blowing and are trying to avoid the pendulum.
They are still leftists as apparently they're censoring discussion on the mods in the forum, they're just seemingly no longer censoring mods now.
I'll believe it when the remove pride flag and no tranny potter voice mods are allowed
and as they're in the UK someone should have already sued them under the discrimination laws there. The spiderman flag mod was just setting the country to saudi arabia IIRC so nexusmods are racist towards arabs.
There is Based Mods. The interface needs improving though.

Cool story.
Let me know when Bethesda backtracks and takes the woke shit out of their own game. Not interested until then.
The site has long passed the point of no return for me. They have/had one purpose: to host content. Once they started stepping in and pretending to be the arbiters of morality, I stopped giving them my traffic.
That their first urge was to stop people from removing ''Body Type 1 /2'' tells you everything you need to know about how woke they are.
Someone on original kia2 suggested downloading this even if you never intend to play the game. I did. https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/353
