Let's mod Skyrim so that the dragon is Thomas the Tank Engine! (SLYT)

Some of the "recommended videos" on the sidebar are truly awful examples of "computer animation."

Also playing this clip really quiet so my son does not hear... We've almost made him forget about Thomas, and it should only be another year or so until he is too old to want that expensive crap.

I just noticed how they don't even bother to move the first guy's body after they haul you up on the block. His head is just right there in the basket and you're totally kneeling on his decapitated corpse. I mean, that's just classless.

SHOW SOME CLASS, IMPERIALS.

Apparently this is the work of the modder Trainwiz, an infamous Dwemer locomotion enthusiast. His other mods include the Blackreach Railroad ("for those wondering, you do indeed get a train hat"), Call of Trainwiz (a spell that makes it rain trains), and Brhuce Hammar (a fully-voiced Telvanni companion with the ability to magically toss trains at enemies).

I actually play with a version of his Morrowloot, which strips upper level equipment out of leveled loot lists and squirrels it away throughout the province, restoring something of the treasure hunt feel of Morrowind.

At least some of these come from the early days of Skyrim modding, before the toolkit became accessible, where modders could only replace data files (like skins, meshes and audio files). Some, I believe, are mods in the more full sense.

the mask place atop his pulsating cephalopod flesh

is not that sophisticated.

don't worry.

we will be devoured so quickly,

that there will be no need to ever find a better mask.

Any time someone talks about consoles being just as good as a PC for gaming I think of the mod scene and smile inside.

It's no Autotune Bear mod.

Lets not forget the penultimate in juvenile humor.

I may have spent many hours in Morrowind trying to mod in a train that would work above ground (rather than running between stations underground which is easy). It never did work, it would get spirited to never-never land if you moved too far, and occasionally crashed the game as well.

I knew the Pinkie Pie mod would turn up eventually.

Twain Device if that's the penultimate in juvenile humor, what's the ultimate? Jarate? yes I've been playing TF a lot lately why do you ask

Aw, man. They skipped the part where you hide behind the guy and hack at him until your sneak skill maxes out.
