First Remastered Oblivion Mod with NSFW Theme
The mod in question is named Ahegao Short SwordThis mod was created by a Nexus Mods user named Bub200. The mod replaced the texture of the in-game short sword with ahegao facial images, which are exaggerated facial expressions typical of manga and anime with sexual overtones. While this mod is fairly simple technically, its appearance drew widespread attention as it happened within hours of the remastered version of the game being released.
For some players, this mod can be a quirky addition to their entertainment. However, for others, it can be inappropriate or even ruin the atmosphere of a game that is supposed to be immersive and full of epic adventure.
The Modding Community's Quick Response
This is not the first time this has happened in the modding world. Previously, games like Skyrim and Fallout has also fallen victim to the rapid rise of adult-themed mods. The modding community is known to be very active and able to respond to game launches very quickly-even before official mod support is available.
Although Oblivion Remastered technically not yet providing official support for mods, modders are still finding loopholes to get their files into the game system. This shows both the enthusiasm and technical ability of the fan community.
Ethics Debate among Players
The presence of mods like this opens up a discussion about ethics and freedom of expression in the modding world. On one hand, modders have the freedom to create whatever they want. But on the other hand, players who don't want to see explicit content can feel uncomfortable with the direction some communities are taking.
User comments on social media have ranged from jokes to sarcasm, with "thanks, I hate it" being a popular response to this kind of mod.
