They don't know how to manage this website. They hire developers and community managers that come out of nowhere because of DEI. I'm not even a political person, just someone in the "center" but these... See more

The app crashes time and time again. Sometimes, it's just a black void before it crashes without warning, and other times, it opens, appears to be working, but the moment I enable/disable or install... See more

"Your IP address has been blocked from login 🤓"

I tried to log into my account about 4 times before deciding to reset my password, but NexusMods decided to lock me out of logging in for a whole hour. What a whole lotta barnacle. Not even Apple locks you out for that long...

Free = very slow download mods

I downloaded lots of mod on PC games but very slow download limited to 3Mb/sec bloody 200-800kb/sec download. My internet speed is 75Mbps (9.3Mb/sec). I not pay Premium for fast download & AD-free are greedy company. I have already AdBlocker removed ADs on Nexusmods. Other website mods still free & fast download.

Greed

Charging money for community made mods is not okay, this awful for-profit website has completely ruined the modding scene.

Nexus Mods is right.

never had any issues with the site, sad to see that so many people are upset over removing a mod that changes a core aspect of a character.

Easy to Use, Great Site for Mods

I am really enjoying using Nexus Mods. I just started gaming again earlier this year, and have been having fun finding new and interesting mods for my game. The mods are easy to find, the site is easy to navigate, and offensive content (hate speech, spam, stalking, etc.) is removed quickly without any fuss. There was one user that was posting hate speech and profanity over and over, and once reported the content was removed and the user banned. When I had a problem with a mod, community members provided suggestions. With their advice, I was able to get a complicated mod up and running.

They refuse my refund for premium…

They refuse my refund for premium because i exceeded their download limit, the reason i exceeded it was because the service wasnt working in the first place how it should have (vortex), and kept redownloading the wrong mod packages etc.

Biased site that removes mods that…

Biased site that removes mods that block gender ideological based content but allows mods that allow players to kill child NPCs. Apparently the site owner has no problem with infanticide in games but despises hetro-normative content.

Heterophobic company

Heterophobic company, remove good mods (ex. Ser Aylin) that do not charm anyone. It is discusting to threat heterosexual people worse due to their sexuality.
