Fun names of your ESO characters - actual, and proposed/

[ElanaAhova]

Names: Some time ago, a clever name "Sleeps-On-Bridges" started a fun series of happenings.

Next is a series of names that took lying down on the job to new depths. "Dies-A-Lot."

What funny names have you named your toons?

@skyrim game. Yes, lame, simpleness lacking steroids, yada. However, when I modded the game to max enhance the environment (not NPC/quests/yada) rather - nature, sounds, yada I createdd aplace i can go and relax, see beautiful sunsets, lakes, waterfalls, and a nightsky that is deep as... this works for me. :) Make skyrim into what you want.

This is why I'm in a love/hate relationship with modding: while I certainly support the IDEA and the CONCEPT of modding, personally, I can never get mods to work, at least not more than maybe 50 to 60 at once, yet so many people make installing AND flawlessly running thousands of mods at once look so easy, and it makes me EXTREMELY jealous.

Besides, I don't think that fans and actual players should be the ones creating patches and fixing bugs (at least not without being paid VERY handsomely by the devs), yet so many other mods REQUIRE these fan-made patches. I'm on the fence about paid, official content from modders, though: while I think it's nice that the devs recognize and realize the greatness and the contributions of these modding communities (especially to their games' longevities), I can also understand most of the frustrations that some people have with what they consider to be "paid mods".

All good points. One of the strengths AND weaknesses of the two beth lines (fallout/elder-scrolls) is the the very friendly attitude towards modding. YEs, modders fix the bugs. I'm OK with that. Modders also introduce new things that become normal in later releases. Example: Modder created a mod for FO3 that allows players to add weapon "mod" to the weapons provided by the vanilla game. These weapon "mod" changed the weapon (add a distant view scope / infrared scope / better ammo, yada. Then, next installment of fallout series had weapon mods as vanilla content. Modders sometimes influence future vanilla content. Nice.

About fans fixing bugs... I prefer that to having to wait an additional 2 years for game release. I actually think many bug fixing modders like what they do. Ask them. And donate to them.

I had a argonian vampire templar tank/back up healer name Touches-You-Silightly but after greymoor update that did alot changes to vampires I had to revert him back to a normal argonian due lack of resources. I made a nord Dragonknight tank named Braum Baby Ram (at the time warden was not out so I went with that class) as a look alike copy of Braum from league of legends. I made a orc stamplar name Guorg gro-Blarg that was drunk mess most of the time. Then the last funny characters I made before I quit eso entirely was my argonian necro Griefs-With-Bottoms and my redguard stamsorc Fernando the Lusty.
