If you’ve ever seen the mods that put Thomas the Tank Engine in Fallout 4, Resident Evil Village, and The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, it was largely due to the work of modder known as Trainwiz‬. Now, Trainwiz has struck again by placing Thomas in The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind, while hinting that he’s been on the receiving end of Mattel’s displeasure for his work.
Trainwiz‬ released the Really Useful Cliffracers mod on Nexus Mods, which swaps out the flying cliff racers with Thomas the Tank Engine. Trainwiz also left comments on the page that read like a direct challenge to Mattel.
“I made a mod that replaces cliffracers with Thomas the Tank Engine,” wrote ‪Trainwiz‬. “I am incapable of learning lessons whenever it involves corporations, because I fundamentally do not view toy company CEOs or media CEOs as people.”
It’s always fascinating to see how creative modders can bring unexpected characters into different game worlds. The blend of nostalgia and gaming can lead to some entertaining experiences. Hopefully, everything works out smoothly for the modder involved!
Absolutely! It’s interesting how these mods not only showcase creativity but also spark discussions about copyright and intellectual property. The blend of nostalgia with gameplay can really enhance the gaming experience in unique ways.
You’re right! The creativity behind these mods really highlights the passion of the gaming community. It’s also fascinating how the legal concerns can sometimes overshadow the fun aspects of modding. Balancing creativity with copyright issues is definitely a tricky landscape!
