Mod or Not - The Game Awards 2024

Welcome back to Mod or Not! The article series where I predict the popularity of a modding scene in games revealed at major gaming events as either mod - meaning that I believe there’ll be a significant scene for it - or not - meaning there won’t be. 

Last week The Game Awards 2024 was chock-a-block with game reveals and video showcases, but for this article, I’ll be keeping to actual new announcements and reveals (rather than all those little reminder adverts that tell you a...

Festive Competition - Winners

A big thank you to everyone who entered this competition. Admittedly, we received fewer submissions than for our Halloween competition, so we’d love to hear your feedback. Do the categories help or hinder? Or has the busy run-up to the holidays kept you from participating?

Despite this, we still received so many fantastic submissions, and once again it was incredibly tough to pick our winners. As I mentioned last time, we understand that everyone will have their own favourites, bu...

Monthly Roundup - November 2024

As I mentioned in the Festive Screen Archery Competition post, this Roundup is a little delayed. What can I say? We’ve all been trying to use up our holiday days before the end of the year. 

Normally, I’d like to leave more time between posts, but with the Christmas holidays fast approaching, I’ve got a lot to fit into a short amount of time. I hope you all don’t mind.

Anyway, let’s crack on with our last monthly roundup of the year (how wild is that?).

Modding the Multiverse - Sumradagnoth8

If you're a passionate D&D 5E player, get ready for something special with today’s modder spotlight! Meet Sumradagnoth8, the mastermind behind some of the most exciting subclass mods for Baldur's Gate 3.

From the precision of the Arcane Archer to the fierce prowess of the Samurai, among many others, Baldur’s Gate 3 players who are looking for expanded playstyles need not look any further. 



Thank you so much for agreeing to an interview! Would you ...

Festive Screen Archery Competition

The holidays are coming, the holidays are coming! I hope you all read that like the song from the Coke advert. Anyway, the festive season is almost here, so I have another screen archery competition for you, yay! 

I know what you might be thinking: "SlugGirl, where is the Monthly Roundup?" It's on the way, I promise. The holiday season is well underway in the office at the moment, so it's going to take a few more days to get ready for you all. I wanted to post about this competitio...

Telling a Tale - Jared Alexander

Ever found yourself watching Skyrim TikToks at 2am with no end in sight? If you can relate, you might have stumbled upon some videos made by today’s modder and video game industry hero: Jared Alexander! 

When he’s not working his day job on the socials of Sea of Thieves over at Rare, he’s busy with his music or his popular TikTok Series 'Skyrim Guard Tales' featuring Jesper the Guard. He’s now brought the eponymous character to life in-game for anyone to recruit as a follow...

Helping a Settlement - Glitchfinder

If you’ve modded Fallout 4, there’s a very high likelihood you’ve stumbled upon today’s interviewee. We’re really excited to be chatting with them as they’ve worked on a whole host of changes to everyone’s favourite post-apocalyptic title ranging from the odd bugfix here-and-there to fully fledged expansions. So, without further ado, let’s meet Glitchfinder.



It's great to have you here with us, Glitchfinder! To kick things off, tell us a bit about your...

Merry Modding Days - 2024

I know, I know, that time of year is still over a month away. Halloween was only a couple of weeks ago, and anyone else in the UK has probably only just heard the last of the fireworks after burning effigies last week. Still, we wanted to give you all as much of a heads-up as we could about this latest modding event from the Merry Modding Days team.




Those of you in the Fallout 4 community will be excited to learn that Merry Modding Days is making a return! For a...

Halloween Competition - Winners

Firstly, I’d like to start by saying a huge thank you to every single person who entered our competition. With it being our first one, I’ll be honest, we worried we’d only get two submissions if we were lucky. So to have received the number that we did was fantastic, although it did mean that it made it extremely difficult for us to narrow down our winners.

As I mentioned in the announcement post, our choices were made based on which images we enjoyed most. We understand that ...

Crafting Characters, Guiding Modders - Padme4000

Some of you may have come across today’s interviewee’s mods before, especially if you’ve ever tried to mod Baldur’s Gate 3 or Dragon Age: Inquisition, amongst other games. If, like me, you’ve ever dabbled in modding either game, you’ll almost certainly have used their modding guides too. 

Today we’re sharing Padme4000’s interview! 



Hey Padme4000, thanks so much for doing this interview with us! Would you mind introducing yourself for peop...

May the Mods Be With You - DeityVengy

If you've been keeping an eye on our YouTube channel, you might have already seen a teaser of who I'm interviewing today. I’ve had the pleasure of chatting with DeityVengy, a YouTuber-turned-modder who has been working on the absolutely massive Star Wars Genesis: A total conversion modlist for Starfield that transforms the Bethesda title into the ultimate Star Wars open-world RPG. 

So grab some blue milk, hop on your speeder and join us as we have a look at the process for creati...

Monthly Roundup - September 2024

I come to you with another Monthly Roundup, like a cat leaving a dead bird for you at the end of your bed. Am I struggling to come up with new ways to introduce this already you ask? Yes, yes I am.

So let’s just crack on with it!


Nexus Mods App
The newest release of our new App launched last week, and with it comes our regular caution. To update it, you will need to completely uninstall the old version, including all mods. It is still in very early stages...

Welcome to the second instalment of our ‘Get to Know Us’ series. This time, the wheel of fate has landed on Ben!

Allow me to introduce Ben, or as he’s known on Nexus Mods, BenGosney. He’ll be the first to tell you it’s not the most imaginative username, but as he says, "I’m easy to find!". We hope you enjoy this interview as much as the last one!



Hey Ben, would you mind introducing yourself?

Hi, I’m Ben! I’m one of the backend ...
