Genuine curiosity, why would someone pay for mods on Patreon when you have Nexus and LoversLab for free?

I'm a modder and firmly believe in the free mods for all motto some of us at Nexus have harped about for years so always wonder why people would pay for what a hell of a lot of modders happily give away for free.

I am one of the guys who stands for free mods but a majority of new animations and great mods are hidden behind patreon paywalls. Maybe this thread could be a start for a patreon free modding community.

I believe there are folks who live by that ol saying: if you are good at something, never do it for free.
I've only seen the mods that you can get free though. I had no idea there are skyrim mods that are greater than the ones you can get for free. I mean there are mod teams still working on expanding the lands, quests, etc beyond the content.

I am actually curious what kind of quality those patreon mods have now. hmm...

The mods are mostly like those of sims 4, animations for sexlab and some armor mods

Just my opinion, but you aren't missing too much. Mostly followers and skins, a few animations. Not that there aren't talented people making the paid mods, they just aren't the great, script-altering, game changing mods you can find on LL and Nexus.

Maybe I have a bias though, as my gaming rig cannot take full advantage of the 4k textures and really make the most of a well done follower, so I instead focus on gameplay improvements and changes. Plus the stuff you can find on the Nexus and LoversLab is just so damn good.

There is a handy for paywalled mods, but of course you'd have to know what you were looking for. A lot of what I've seen around though are like bahamut2195 said followers (which occasionally may or may not be copy's of others).

Edit - Well there used to be a subreddit...

Maybe you could link a couple here and make it easier for some people?
But anyway thanks, this is real helpful

I never used any of them I'm afraid I was ok with the mods available on Tumblr, Loverslab and Nexus. I only used the site for a few mods that were taken off Nexus, but often noticed requests and links for patron only stuff back when I regularly checked it.

If you want takealook's mods go , komotor's mods can't seem to be download but other modders may work if they just link the downloads (and if they're on there and up to date).

Sure the site itself is listed on a already so should be ok, and all I did was enter in the name. You can search for other modders by clicking on creators in the bar at the top.

I'm Komotor I distribute stuff for Free and it's good like that...
If I see anything pirated I'm going to have to drop this work...
And good bye to any new animations from me for your FUCKING GAME that I hate, but that I continue to do as service...
I'm working almost 16hours per day and 7/7 to keep a small amount of patrons and have not easy to continue..
If you want to see me drop this shit for good, share my stuff, and you never see me release anything anymore, aswell for free or for paid..

And the revenue from pornhub too, I believe.

I do not even understand his point... More shares = more people seeing his work = more people take a liking on him/his work and decide to support him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It is not like he's selling stuff either, so... Am I missing something here?
