GIANTS ULTIMATE 2.7.1 by Pumaman, MW mod came on disk from PC Gamer ! Options

[Ibis]

I don't know if anyone else has received this in the mail, but my hubby Cain got 2 free game guides and 1 extra disk with his subscription to PC Gamer magazine (which comes every month with a disk loaded with game trials & utilities) and on the disk was a download of the Morrowind mod Giants Ultimate 2.7.1 by Pumaman.

I am making a thread about this because I remember someone saying in discussion here that Bethesda ought to start recognizing the better mods made by fans for Morrowind and Oblivion and publish them with the creators name.

PC Gamer seems to have gotten the idea because here for the public is the most downloaded mod of Morrowind - so they say - and this is also wonderful advertisement for Morrowind and might get even a brand new generation of players for MW who had previously not heard of or tried the game.

I don't know if Pumaman is getting any money with this inclusion of his mod on the PC Gamer disk, but I hope he is - especially considering how Bethesda Gaming Company is now charging $2 for horse armor, and such. There was a guy at Ebay who was charging $10 a pop for sending mods to people that he didn't make (he was warned to desist.) But if the Bethesda devs are going to nickel and dime fans for the content they forgot to put in Oblivion instead of giving it freely like "Bitter Coast Sounds" mod, etc. for Morrowind; then why shouldn't all of us modders for Oblivion get on the bandwagon and make some money for our work as well. If the giving and sharing spirit of Tamriel is gone = let's ALL profit.

Now I've gone offtrack from what I wanted to say .... which is, what are your thoughts on this Morrowind player's mod being included on the PC Gamer disk?

Anyone who still plays Morrowind and would like to check out Giants can do so at this link
