Hey there, gamers and absurdity enthusiasts, Jackal.Today is here to dive into a wild story about the biggest modding platform NexusMods, the remaster of the iconic game The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, the controversial “Male/Female” gender choice versus the bizarre “Body Type 1/Body Type 2” nonsense, and a massive player revolt with premium subscription cancellations as their weapon of choice!
Add to that banned modders, pissed-off Chinese gamers, and NexusMods’ leadership, which seems stuck in some alternate reality where Woke agendas rule supreme. Ready to laugh at this clown show? Then grab your keyboards, ‘cause we’re about to tear this drama apart with memes and snark! 🤡🔥
Let’s start with how this mess kicked off. Bethesda, in their infinite “wisdom,” decided that in the Oblivion Remaster, the classic “Male/Female” gender selection was just too outdated and, apparently, not “inclusive” enough. So instead, they shoved some weird crap called “Body Type 1” and “Body Type 2” down our throats. Seriously? Body Type? Are we in a mannequin-building simulator now? “Pick your vibe, player: Body Type 1 with abs or Body Type 2 with… well, figure it out yourself.” Gamers who remember 2006 and the original Oblivion nearly choked on this “innovative” design. Back then, it was simple: pick a gender, slap on a beard or some thick eyebrows, and go slay enemies in Tamriel. Now we’ve got “body types,” like we’re ordering a pizza with different toppings. Naturally, the community flipped out and started hunting for mods to fix this nonsense. Enter the hero of the hour – the Body Type Selector mod, which brought back the good ol’ “Male/Female” options. And guess what happened next? Yup, NexusMods, the grand protector of “inclusivity,” decided this mod was too bold, yanked it off the site, and banned the creator. Of course, they couldn’t let anyone mess with the holy DEI agenda! Heaven forbid some “snowflake” gets offended over their “body type” being labeled wrong. Sorry, but this isn’t modding anymore – it’s straight-up comedy! 😂🛠️
Gaming Mod News: NexusMods Brings Back “Male/Female” Mod for Oblivion Remaster After Mass Premium Subscription Cancellations by Outraged Players! 🎮
Think that’s the end of the story? Nope, it gets even funnier! Chinese gamers, who clearly didn’t vibe with “Body Type 1/Body Type 2” either, created their own localization to bring back the normal gender selection. And what did NexusMods do? You guessed it – they deleted that too and banned the Chinese modder. Bravo, folks, just bravo! Offending an entire nation to defend your weird principles – that’s some next-level boss fight stuff right there. But Chinese players aren’t the type to take this lying down. Rumor has it they staged a full-on digital uprising, mass-canceling their premium subscriptions on NexusMods. And lo and behold, once the site’s admins felt the heat from their wallets taking a hit, they hurriedly brought back the Body Type Selector mod to the top 3 most popular mods for Oblivion Remastered. Though, they did disable comments under the mod – probably ‘cause the roasting down there was too hot for any mod team to handle. Here at Jackal.Today, we’re cracking up: can someone make a mod to restore a few brain cells to NexusMods’ leadership? ‘Cause right now, their decisions look like they’re playing a totally different game called “How to Lose Every User’s Trust in 24 Hours.” 💸😡
So, what’s next? Will NexusMods keep up their dumb censorship experiments, or will they finally get that gamers aren’t a bunch of sheep who’ll swallow any garbage thrown at them? We at Jackal.Today are holding out hope that by 2025, as some insiders predict, all this Woke and DEI nonsense gets tossed into the trash bin of history, and the gaming industry gets back to what we’re all here for – dope games, epic adventures, and freedom of choice, not forcing down “correct” terms from some corporate handbook. Real talk, if Bethesda and NexusMods think we gamers are just gonna nod along to their “body types,” they clearly don’t know who they’re messing with. We’re the lunatics who beat Oblivion on the hardest difficulty, fought dragons in Skyrim with nothing but a rusty spoon, and survived Dark Souls without a single checkpoint. So, NexusMods folks, don’t test us, or we’ll start a boycott so fierce your servers will crash under the weight of angry memes and rants screaming “give us back our gender options!” For now, we’re waiting on a mod to fast-forward your clocks to 2025, where, as we’ve been told, the entertainment industry finally starts ditching all this ideological clutter. 🎮⏳
Speaking of who’s getting the short end of the stick here, let’s have a laugh at ourselves – the regular gamers. We don’t ask for much: just give us our games the way they were, or at least let us mod them however we want. But nooo, there’s always gotta be some “social justice warriors” deciding that the word “gender” is too offensive and needs to be swapped for something more “neutral.” Fine, let’s start calling everyone “Body Type 1” and “Body Type 2” in real life then. Imagine walking down the street and someone yells, “Hey, Body Type 1, got the time?” Pure romance, fantasy-level stuff! And these clowns at NexusMods, banning everyone left and right, only to bring mods back when the heat’s on – aren’t they just hilarious? Let’s all have a good chuckle at these “guardians of inclusivity” who don’t seem to know what they even want. Big props to the Chinese gamers, though – now that’s a boycott with some fire! Mass-canceling subscriptions like that isn’t just posting memes on Twitter; it’s a legit digital revolution. And to any “snowflakes” reading this and already drafting angry emails to our editor, I’ve got one thing to say: chill, it’s just humor. If the word “gender” triggers you, maybe gaming ain’t your thing – try something safer, like knitting. 🧶😜
Lastly, let’s speculate on the future. If NexusMods keeps this up, their platform’s gonna turn into some kind of ghetto for “approved” mods, where you can’t even tweak a pixel without clearance from a DEI committee. Meanwhile, us gamers will have to go underground, trading mods on the dark web and whispering on forums about “forbidden” files that bring normalcy back to games. Or maybe Bethesda will come to their senses and release a patch to restore gender options? Though, honestly, I’m not holding my breath – these guys seem so deep in their “progressive” rabbit hole that it’s easier to wait for Sheogorath’s second coming than for them to snap out of it. For now, we at Jackal.Today will keep tracking this wild saga and updating you on all the ridiculousness unfolding in the modding and gaming world.
