I've been getting messages and comments here asking if Secunda is still in development. The short answer is yes. The long answer is you probably won't see an update for a few more months. I know this is disappointing but I am not only dealing with real life but some technical issues with my Creation Kit. I have a slight work around that I can hope to start working on soon. Secunda will be updated in the coming months and I hope to dedicate more love and time to her very soon! Thank you for being around!
A year and a half since you released Secunda and even after like 7 reinstalls of the game and new modlists I always include her into my journey. Thank you for making such an incredible mod. Hope you're doing alright and loving life!
Apparently it was removed from the Xbox mod library. No idea why. The Xbox version link on the Description page doesn't work, it just takes user to the entire mod library on Bethesda.net, after it reloads the entire page's information several times over...
So I know I'm gonna sound super deep into neckbeardom here but I'm curious: how lore-friendly is she? I mean don't get me wrong I don't need some book talking about her in the vanilla game or something, I can suspend disbelief and all but I don't want someone that seems super out of place or doesn't make any sense. I want her to expand the world, not just make it seem weirder, you know what I mean? Also is she more grounded like Remiel or is she gonna have an orgasm every time I do something cool 'cuz the latter will creep me out. I respect the work that goes into this and using your own VA skills takes guts no matter how good it is or isn't, so I hope I don't sound like a dick, I just want someone that actually "fits" you know what I mean?
I don't think the question is random at all. Lots of people want to keep their addons "lore-friendly". Of course the choice is theirs, but they're asking so they can make an informed decision.
Secunda is made to be a friend of the dragonborn. She won't agree with everything you do but she will offer praise when it is warranted. This idea that she must be disagreeable to be an opinionated person just doesn't sit right with me and shes no scholar. She will support you when she feels it it is necessary and give advice when she feels it is necessary. First and foremost she is your friend and she will always be supportive of the dragonborn.
As for lore. Tes lore is incredible, its very deep and there is a lot to go through. I tried my best to make her seem grounded in the world and will continue to do so as she gets updated. Obviously I have to take some creative liberty's in areas where there is no information about a specific topic.
Wait there's an OOPART follower waifu out there that has an Orgasm over every little thing I will do? Really? I am totally like a custom voice follower JUNKIE and I trawled this site from the first page, to the last, of the follower section looking for them.... I admit I do not have Anna's supposedly awesome mod... or any that have a skeletal dependency..... but I have all of the best.
Still the GOAT in terms of depth and expansiveness and features, Vilja. The most complete follower since her, Remiel. The best Male follower thus far... Xelzaz...yeah, you thought I was going to say Inigo... but I have him too, and Lucien. The cutest ever made, Auri, the most Mary Sue ever made, Aurlyn, the most likely to be why one becomes addicted to making flower girls .. disappear... because someone has to pay, Sophia. Rocorder, Daegon, Kkaidan, Luciefer.... no seriously.. I need to stop because I am way too effing lazy to list them all......
...... and I have not found one which is straight out of another world, AND submissively sycophantic to the point of the orgasmic.
Now, I do not want to say you are making a straw man argument... perhaps you like straw people, that might even be a cool follower... a staw man looking for a heart.... but I am saying *I* have not met that follower.
I mean, there is like, Recorder.. from another world.. and a Wheel of Time mod with a follower.... and I mean, there's probably others... there is like.. the vanilla followers like Iona, or Lydia, who seem to fall for your amazing the instant you spend a day with, and get waxing lyrical about everything you do... or Jenassa who does the samething a little creepily... even if with that sexy sultry voice.....
....but there like... seems to be no Red Sonja, or Hutt Slave Princess Leia or anything.. nothing like that, no hardcore Gorean Waifus... and there's no one moaning 'Draaaaagon borrrn.Ooohhoowhohhohmmmmgrrrrrrrr".. orgasmically in their sleep, or declaring they'd do what we all know Ysolda does with Mammoth tusks for me any time after I buy something off Beletor, no dropping to their knees, naked demanding I take them now when I sharpen my sword... admittedly, Avienhda from the WoT mod kinda of goes there when you get her quest done, is basically reduced to your puiblic indecency doll..but it aint the same!!!!
So like... for real... obviously there must BE followers like that out there.... right? You are complaining about them, so surely? So come on then, fess up... I want the skinny.. where is she? She needs to be in my game!
Or are you just being the only actual tease here, and in reality, might have gone a little overboard on the dramatic effect?
Apis4, yes, there is. She's called Umbrael. She's not on Nexus, just Google her. There's also a bunch others on LoversLab which do nothing but being horny. I think I've seen some horny followers here too. Some vampire girls. She practically only lusts for you. Forgot the name though.
Note, this is for Apis4, I don't want the mod author thinking I'm opening up a comment to her like this: What the f*#@ is wrong with you? 90% of followers are like how I specifically described. The ones you listed are very clearly outliers, which is why people like them so much. What kind of pseudo-intellectual s#*! did you just make me read? Do you know about the wench mods existing? Or like the weird overly sexualized cat girl mods? The random followers that just utilize sultry voices? Seriously, just type in Follower into the search engine and click for like two pages. You accused me of making a straw man argument (which you clearly don't know what that means) when I wasn't making an argument at all, just asking a pretty fair question. Lay off the stupid juice dude, you have more ellipses in your comment than your brain has firing neurons.
Your question was valid, there are tons of followers out there that breaks the flow of the game. Don't really understand why people get so offended or turn into "white knights" just because someone has a question or a different opinion of something and it's really played out, can't say s#*! nowadays. Oliveiea handled the question with grace and I commend her for that, I would ignore anyone else.
Aside from the internal backstabbing I don't know much about the breton hierarchy in terms of Lords and princesses but Secunda is solid and definitely not one of those companions lol. I would definitely suggest her to anyone who asks me my opinion on what followers should they download. She fits in with the like of Remiel and Auri and do look forward to future updates. She can easily be a classic of a companion depending of the route the Mod Author takes with her.
I'm going to be honest...thanks for asking this question! I just moved one of my favorite companions out of my order because she went from being lore-friendly-ish to completely not (which isn't a problem of course, just doesn't fit my world's immersion), so I was glad to see confirmation that she's made to fit into the established world. Not sure why there needed to be a multi-paragraph rambling about...something, in response to this question. I'm glad to know when a companion mod is someone I'd really want to try out instead of downloading and installing just to find out it really doesn't fit with my tastes from the get-go.
LMAO no, you were not going insane. I was honestly flabbergasted at a couple of these replies. Like holy CRAP people, the guy just asked a question.
To all you other people, please learn how to READ. The oc's question was a simple and relatively straightforward one. They were not "making an argument" or "complaining", like, at all. Just asking a question.
Hi, hope you're doing better. Hopefully you haven't forgotten about Secunda. An update would be great but we'll understand if it's not possible. Wish you the best. Cheers.
Thank you so much for publishing this mod! She’s a very wholesome and fun edition to my gang of adventurers, and I can’t wait to see this mod grow and improve!
The armor you want to give her has to have super high armor rating, temper-upgrade the crap out of it while you wear a bare minimum of 4 items that have 25% smithing, and the Notched Pickaxe for that extra tiny boost/buff, and probably needs to be enchanted too. I was able to get her to wear upgraded Stalhrim Light Armor.
Sadly all i can do after talking to her is say: "and what if I rob you and leave you for dead". Then the conversation ends (seems like she gets hit or something?) and I have to do the dialogue again, and the process repeats. I don't know what's going on.
