Oh man, as someone who once spent an uncountable amount of days tediously adding mods to Oblivion, Morrowind, an Fallout 3 to the point that I almost didn't even want to play them anymore because I was spending more time with mod managers than playing the game, this is goddamn fantastic.

I've never done much modding, but I wonder how hard it would be to change the marriage mechanic so that you can sell all your items to your wife for nothing and then she'll give you their worth back a week later, rather than the arbitrary set amount for each day. Because I think that's a great idea and want to do it if no one else will.

Pretty much the first thought that came to mind since I don't know how to mod. Still looks pretty awesome though and looking forward to hilarious YouTube vids of this.

Wow... Fallout has really permeated everything Elder Scrolls. What's wrong with calling it the Construction Set, instead of shoehorning in a plot device from Fallout 2. It made sense for the Fallout mod tools to be called the GECK, but meh.

It's called the 'Creation Kit', the guy in the video mentions the GECK because that was the last tool they created and he was comparing it to this one. Go find something else to whine about on the internet, or actually try and feel good about something and write about that.

I love that they worked an Idle Thumbs reference in this video. Jake's Enhanced Puffins sounds amazing. I just hope they don't have backwards flying Puffins, that would be too enhanced.

Thanks Nick, fuck Nick.

Finally being past the really bumpy road that was the PC release of Skyrim, I can think of no better game to illustrate how amazing the PC is as a gaming platform. This creation kit and the amazing (finally) 1.4 patch that fixes performance makes me so happy. If this doesn't make console gamers jealous, I don't know what will. Viva la PC

I feel bad for the guys over at Skyrim Nexus. I hope the Steam Workshop doesn't overshadow all their hard work and amazing site.

This is seriously why I just built a new PC. Destroyed the game on the Xbox, now I gotta try my hand at modding and this scripting language. This looks seriously awesome!

I hope "soon" is this weekend, and I hope that this is a big enough deal that Skyrim goes on sale on Steam. Having mods that are a one-click affair is a dream for me.

This looks like a nice, streamlined process. Assuming that wiki is detailed enough, I might try a mod.

I am so glad the comments to this video make references to Idle Thumbs in some form or another. Man I wish they would just start another revamped podcast already, now that Remo is back in town.
