I'm pretty sure the moderators have no idea what those mods are about and I wouldn't expect them to react in any way, unless there's literally hate speech on the forum. But that doesn't mean we can't or we shouldn't criticize this kind of stuff. It's racist, it's homophobic, it's sexist, it's wrong.

Breja: The only thing really turning this forum into a "cesspit" is the way everything has to turn into this kind of angry moral grandstanding filled with insults and vitriol over complete non-issues. A mod exists. Someone informs people about it. They can use it, ignore it, whatever. If you want to discuss it's merits, do it. But that's not what anyone wants. All you want is another opportunity to have the same culture war argument for a 1000th time and to insult others because it's 2025 and we can't disagree with anyone over anything without asserting they are the devil incarnate. It's like some sad online parody of the satanic panic in the 80s.
"Non-issues"? What?

CaptainGyro: Banning any reply at all that involves politics seems downright crazy to me though and a fools game

Plasticine879: I've seen many forums over the years experiment with having a political forum, only to have them shut it down later, 9 times out of 10, and ban political discussions outright cause they do get heated some times. That is nothing new. Companies probably figure it's in their financial best interests (especially those that get revenue from ads) to just ban the discussions completely. I've seen this time and time again.
Sorry I guess I'm being stupid, because I can't tell if you agree with me or not. I've been on forums for decades though and trying to eliminate talk about politics even in a reply has never worked out well. Politics is in everything, its a main part of life

I was neither agreeing or disagreeing, just making a random point about political discussions, and it proves my point. They are almost always heated.

*kicking back with my popcorn* It must be a slow game day 'round here.

Same here. What will be next? The drama, the intrigue, twists and uncertainty. *noms popcorn**

Ok I wasn't sure. And yeah it's a slow day. I called in sick at work today and I am just kinda bored, so I'm reading this thread

Breja: And the mod is just an option too, so raging about it like this is a bit funny.

I'm pretty sure attacking other users is not allowed either, you know, like calling people "trash".

Really, the hypocrisy on display here is staggering.

Or at least it would be, if it wasn't so nauseatingly commonplace.

ThatGuyWithTheThing: Sure, having low tolerance on hatespeech is "hypocricy".

Attacking specific users isn't permitted, but attacking a percentage of the population is permitted? What the hell are you smoking? The amount of low effort baiting is staggering.

Since when is promoting hatespeech a "permitted option"? If you're unable to form a proper syllogism, then maybe you're part of the problem (and also shouldn't operate any machinery or devices).

Just as an experiment, I dare you to post a new thread against a specific group of people. Since you're not a hypocrite and are an beacon of logic and reason, I'm sure you will comply to prove me wrong.
A Zen story tells two monks argue about whether the flag is flapping in the breeze or the breeze is flapping the flag. Their debate escalates until a third person intervenes, "It is neither the flag nor the wind, but your minds are flapping".

Please, tolerance and constructive opinions. Do not let the issue to amplify.

ThatGuyWithTheThing: The fact thar you're supporting the poster of said mod is astounding, to be honest.
I'm not. I just don't support calling people "trash" regardless of whether I agree with them.

That's basically all it boils down to. And that's it for me in this thread. Knowing my luck, I will probably end up being the only one banned in this matter anyway :D

Found out developers tried to obscure the fact that you would sleep with Bartosh, may be evidence to prove infiltration of Warhorse or Embracer sneaking in woke developers into WH
Yes please tell us more of the lizardmen, the QAnon gospel and our Lord God Donald Trump who'll save us all.

I know some of you American folks might not see clearly any longer, because this wild conspiracy bullshit has become so commonplace. Coming from an Austrian, this is horrific. I'm so glad Christine Nöstlinger isn't alive to see what's happening in the world today.

Literal whitewashing mods, mods to make the women more willing, mods that remove one agenda to substitute it for another, dialog options removed, doxxing the translators, history revisionism, Russian propaganda, what have you.

This isn't on a "Han shoots first again" level. The only people interested in coloring black characters white are racist perverts, and that's just the scientific term.

Sure, you can 'choose' not to download these racist and misogynist mods to censor the shit out of the game. Glass half full I guess.

Breja: Yes, yes, calling people "trash" isn't attacking them when it's someone we disagree with about a video game. Such a serious transgression fully validates any vitriol we may want to fling their way. Expressing disagreement in a civil way is for chumps.

Damcly: There is no such thing as "civilized conversation" with a racist
I don't know if Breja is racist( I don't know him but i never got that impression from reading his posts) , but if he is a racist, I think he's being pretty civil

Breja: A forum where someone can disagree with you? What a cesspit indeed! Surely no worse place could exist! Oh, if only the whole world could be an echo chamber...

I was trying to decide whether you're totally detached from reality and lack self-awareness, or if you're just a strongheaded troll. I checked your past posts. Still haven't decided, but it could be either, maybe both.

In any case, I see no point in responding further to you, since you aren't here to discuss, but to aggrevate.

OK. That's what I was looking for. My chat is turned off, but I'm open to ironing this out in private. Sending you a friend request.

Maybe it would be clearer had you said only that.

All of you calling the messenger mean words are aware that he's just that, a messenger, right?

The paragraphs just below the links pointing at the mods themselves that describe what the mods entail and what they do are word-for-word quoted from an alternative mod hosting site called Based Mods.

I doubt that CMiq gives a toss, but you're unjustifiably accusing the man to be something he clearly is not.

I had left a response but my posts seem to be broken as well as a few other users. I'll type it again but if my other post shows up oh well.

Anyways, I do agree that leaving a comment with mods that change core elements of the game under the official release post is in bad taste. But I do not agree with the notion that said mods are bad. Had that post been made under the Kingdom Come game forum instead then what is the problem?

Last year I made a post here expressing my annoyance with mod censorship, especially given as it is always selective. In that post I used the example of Cyberpunk's Judy not being allowed to be modded to like men whereas the canonical straight woman (Panam) was freely modded to like women. Both mods should have been able to exist. My opinion is still the same here.

There are mods that turn characters black, there are mods that insert LGBTQ signs and flags into games where it makes no sense. I don't care. There are mods that appeal to likely anything you would want. The reverse should also be true.

Mods do not alter your files, they do not alter your story, they are personal to someone's own copy of the game and if they wish to change some files around and share them with others, so be it.
