Skyrim mods downloaded 13.6 million times

Steam work shop not bad, but for my self  i prefer the nexus easier to use and it served me for years.

And not a SINGLE cent was paid

The guy that did the exploding chickens mod should be contracted by Bethesda!He is a Genius xD 

13 million of those are just for exploding chickens....

Are there any mods that add actual content? Or is it just the odd house or goofy weapons?

Ahhh PC game modding. The only realm in which the Skyrim dragons get turned into "Macho Man" Randy Savage.

Just goes to show PC gamers don't need paid DLC to get more out of a game. We're fully capable of putting out and sustaining a wealth of user made content that gives the game an unlimited amount of awesome content.

@ Zloth2 Nexus no doubt has a lot more. The only difference is Bethesda now have hard numbers to support their claims, as opposed to in the past. I believe Bethesda is also announcing this as a marketing tool because they want Steam Workshop to succeed, since it can be seen as an anti-piracy deterrent. With Nexus, modders can download without a registered game copy. With Steam Workshop, however, you need to purchase the game. No doubt a ton of developers are keeping an eye on Steam Workshop's developments. It's success may change the culture of modding forever.

"heavy on the sarcasm" I can't believe the Xbox gets the DLC 30 days before us PC gamers. Totally unfair! Doesn't Bethseda know the PC gamers are the only reason this series exists today? /sarcasm Do you PC fanboys finally see why you shouldn't complain about the 30 day early release for the Xbox DLC?

13.6 million on Steam alone. Nexus likely has just as many.
