The new in the world of fundamental software is always better than the old. As well as new hardware and software standards almost always include all the features of the old ones. Do not confuse program algorithms with the graphical interface and the game itself (plot, character appearance, dialogues, etc.). The plot and conditional mechanics of new games may actually be inferior to old hits. As for the custom maid and especially its plugins, from your words, I understand that the situation is similarto Skyrim with his mods especially porno mods))).
Plugins are made by people, not game developers, so they often conflict with game updates.
Everything you said, as well as any other information, tends to become outdated very quickly in our time. And therefore it is necessary to check in practice almost every update, and the distribution I have indicated is newer.
In addition, my distribution contains both version 2.14 and 3.14 and their x64 bit versions of which are not indicated in another distribution.
My point of view also includes your point of view, but in this regard it is wider. Namely, I issued a torrent with both versions. And there the user will figure out what is best for him.
The only negative of my version is that it is almost 2 times larger.
In Skyrim, I also came to the conclusion that because of the mods that were not done in time for new versions of the game, you have to have several different versions of the game.
In addition, not all people need mods, and many people don’t even know how to install them, and for such people 3.14 will be better because it contains more options and, accordingly, it will definitely be better.
