Some people at LL may know me, some may not...
As years go on LL has become a much crowded place than it was before in the old days.
I started here playing Oblivion, then modding it
Then Skyrim came along and mass floods of new players/modders suddendly appeared
I'm not one of them
Yes I played Skyrim. I even recreated my Oblivion char in it
At the time I had a crappy PC and I looked with envy all those pretty shots on GPU-expensive ENBs people would share here. Still managed to gather a few pretty mods and make a nice experience.
Then something brought me back to Oblivion
Maybe it's the fact that I'm not a professional but just an amateur modder by hobby... Which means I have not a clue how to use 3dsMax, Maya ot those shiny little tools people use to mod Skyrim. Maybe I'll learn one of these days. But for now, Oblivion still has things to do for me.
In all this time a lot has happened. Things like the paid mods fiasco shook the whole world while a crowd of voices shouted against it and I remained always faithful to my belief that mods must be free. However that is not always well seen by certain entities.
Call it bad luck, recklesness or enemies but I had a bit of a setback which some of my friends know.
I wont refer to it anymore as there's no point to it.
The important part is I'm still standing
And I remain one of the last Oblivion modders. Jeez.... calling myself a "modder" XD never thought I would see that day come. Yet I have several released works which seem to be appreciated which was all I ever wanted when releasing stuff... that folks could enjoy them and have as much fun as I do with them. I guess that makes me a modder.
LIke I said, I'm still standing. And no I dont bring fancy Skyrim boobies nor slutty companions... errr... maybe one day...
But if you still like Oblivion or are intersted in it, dont give up. With today's mods, it can look almost like a low-to-mid modded Skyrim XD And It still has a lot to give. Besides it's a lot easier to mod.
Today, I released Sylvanas Armor Variations which is probably the most complex mesh/texturing work I've made so far (yaay I'm so proud xD)
And I still have stuff incoming, like My racial project which features stuff like enhanced Argonians among other features is almost done.
Then there is that Outfit Redesign project. the rest is all mashups, cosplays and much much more...
I guess I'll keep modding until my brain is depleted out of ideas
So I have a new site now... and it comes with a few rules
1st rule about the gate is, you don't talk about the gate
2nd rule about the gate is you DO NOT talk about the gate
Ther'e's also a new Oblivion collective which has been recently created as a form of "guild" to safeguard our mods from the banhammer
Call us the last guild of Oblivion.
Meet us in DeviantArt...
This LL blog has been a bit abandoned at it goes somewhat unnoticed with all them boobies but I think I like it that way
I'll try to put any important update on whatever I release on this blog too for the LL community which has been my "home" for the past few years
I'm tired of the policies and restrictions the bannings and the reign of terror...
I wish we could live in a free world where folk could just get along with no "report" buttons or greedy companies
But it is the way it is...
I hope my words fall on good ears
And on that thought. I bid farewell from now with my best wishes
I'll be returning with gifts
Sincerely
The Alchemist
