Helpful (but Aggressive) Guide to the new Hogwarts Legacy PC Mod Update✨

I have been seeing NOTHING BUT COMPLAINING about this damn update and no one actually trying to help each other. So I'm going to do my damn best here to give you a little intro into this new update. Because instead of leaning into the standard toxic consumerism bullshit of fandom, why don't we actually try to be nice to each other?? And the fucking modders who put all this time and effort into making this for us?!?!!?!?!? Special thanks to @anomalyaly because we were up last night trying to figure this out LOL. These screenshots are hers and mine!

PART ONE: Why is my game crashing?

You need to delete your old Nexus ~mod folder from the game files. Throw it in the trash, cut and past it somewhere in your documents, idc. Just get it out of there. The pathway to find it is:

2. Steam senses your bad attitude and don't like it idk. I'm not IT. Turn it off and back on again.

NOTE: Once you start up the game and get it working, you can bring back compatible mods from Nexus. You just need to create a new folder to put them in. It can't be the original one. If your game crashes after that, then you have an incompatible mod in there. You'll have to go down the list until you narrow down which one it is - typically will be a face mod, hair mod, jewelry, or a mod that already exists in the new mod store thing. Yeet it.

PART TWO: I'm not going to teach you how to add the new in-game mods and start the game. I'm not your mom. It's pretty intuitive honestly.

PART THREE: Where the fuck are the clothing mods I just added????

An excellent question, my new charge. You need to go to GladRags to get them. You're going to have to long rest at least three days for them to show up in his store. For me, it took five times lol. This is kind of annoying, but it needs to be immersive to the game I guess so oh well. I don't think we'll die from it.

See all those red exclamation points? That was my fault. I loaded a wizard clothing mod into a witch save. So if you see that, you loaded something you shouldn't have.

PART FOUR: HOW DO I CHANGE MY UGLY ASS HAIR?

Easy peasy lemon squeezy. You're going to go to that hairstyle lady in Hogsmeade I'm too lazy to look up the name of. That bitch charges you for the new hairstyles but you can download unlimited money cheats so whatever.

Don't mind my face lol. I was having a BP makeup glitch LOL

PART THIRTY-SEVEN: How do I change my makeup?

This part sucks. RIGHT NOW as of 1/31/2025, you have to be in the main character design screen at the beginning of the damn game. BUT BUT BUT - if you mod back in the BP character editor, you can do it anywhere. My hope is a new mod will replace this so the game works more smoothly.

Those white spaces? They're the new in-game mods for hair and makeup. Well, most of them. I think some are just random blank spaces lol.

Part Six: Where are my unlocked spells and unlimited plants and shit?

Two reasons they're not showing up:

If you just added this mod and you load your game in the middle of the mission, you need to finish the mission first.

You probably have something incompatible (a nexus mod) that isn't playing nice. Yeet it.

After getting everything squared away, I look fucking great. You are not doomed to a potato face🥔. I FUCKING PROMISE YOU ON SOLOMON'S LIFE.

Truly guys, once you work out the kinks in this update, it's really. fucking. nice.

Before I reinstalled the nexus mods, the game was running so smoothly and the graphics were beautiful. I loaded in 20 mods all at once, and the game handled them just fine. After reloading the nexus mods it was a bit clunky, but of course it would be.

I know change is scary. Also for those who spent time creating/commissioning mods that are no longer compatible, they have the biggest right to be freaking out. BUT BUT BUT we all fucking know the old mods AND SO MANY MORE will be back soon. People are working their asses off in the background converting things right now.

I want to put some things into perspective for you:

We have not had a real update in two years (no, photo mode doesn't count). This is literally the best kind of update we could ever ask for. We are not dependent on the devs for updates with this. In the launch event they were speaking as if you can create your own quests; there are audio mods....think about it guys. Endless protentional. (The only things that aren't going to make it are if you have weird ass like engorgio penis mods because there's no way they're approving those for public use hahahaha)

The devs reached out to people in the community to ask for feedback and to collaborate. THEY CARE ABOUT THE FANDOM. Consider what that may mean for the sequel??? We might not be forced to stomach Hogwarts Legacy 2: Dumbledore's Jorts. They're listening (but they're not going to listen if you're fucking rude and stupid).

You guys shitting on this update very vocally here, on twitter, and on tiktok are forgetting that people in your community helped create it and can SEE YOU. STOP IT. Whine in private!!!!!! Also because I knowww I have to specify because someone is going to take everything personally, I don't mean posts making funny jokes about the updates and just being like ahhhh wtf is going on I'm so lost and whatnot. Like please guys, read the room. I'm referring to nasty comments.

So yes, I'm here with a positive review of the update, and an insanely aggressive reminder to calm the fuck down and go touch some grass. The old mods will be back soon. This update makes using them so much easier. Also, THE POOR CONSOLE PLAYERS DON'T EVEN HAVE ANYTHING YET SOOOOOOOO

I WILL NOT BE TAKING ANY QUESTIONS OR CRITICISM SO STFU. THANKS FOR READING THIS LONG ASS POST IF YOU'RE STILL HERE. OKAAAY BYEEeeEE.

───୨ৎ──── ───୨ৎ──── ───୨ৎ────

The air was still and warm in the bedroom, the only sounds coming from the occasional rustling of the blankets as I shifted.

Sukuna was beside me, arms folded behind his head, exuding his usual aura of dominance even in repose.

I, on the other hand, was curled up comfortably in my oversized sweater, enjoying the rare moment of peace between us.

It had been a long day, and I just wanted to rest. My sweater, slightly too big for me, had ridden up without my notice. That is, until I felt it—a light, deliberate touch against my exposed stomach.

I tensed immediately. The rough pads of Sukuna's fingers dragged lazily across my skin,his touch both possessive and casual, like he had every right to do so. I jolted, my hands snapping down to yank the fabric of my sweater back into place.

"Don't do that” I muttered, shifting away from his reach.

Sukuna went unnervingly still.

For a second, I didn't think much of it, too busy adjusting my sweater to fully process his reaction. Then, when I glanced up, I saw the way his expression darkened. His eyes, glowing faintly in the low light, fixated on me with something between irritation and... confusion?

"You just gave me attitude" he noted, his voice deceptively calm.

I swallowed, suddenly regretting my reaction. "I just-"

"Over this?" His fingers twitched and I flinched slightly, anticipating another touch.

"I don't like my stomach" I admitted quickly, my voice small. "I don't want it touched."

Silence.

Sukuna's gaze flickered down to where my sweater now covered every inch of my torso, his jaw tightening. For a moment, I thought-hoped-he might let it go.

Then, a slow smirk curled his lips, one that sent a chill down my spine. "You think I care about your stupid insecurity?"

I barely had a second to react before everything went black. Then, the next second, I was bound to the bed.

My breath hitched as I realized my wrists were secured above my head with thick, red-threaded restraints. My ankles, too, were caught in a similar hold, keeping my legs from curling up in defense. My sweater?

Gone. I was left in nothing but my bra and panties, my stomach completely bared to the cool air.

My panic only increased when I saw Sukuna looming over me, his expression twisted in something between amusement and displeasure.

"You gave me attitude because of this?" he repeated, his clawed fingers dragging along the soft skin of my belly, making me shudder. "All because you hate this part of yourself?"

I squirmed, my face heating up. "Sukuna-let me go!"

He ignored me. "You really thought l'd let this slide?" His grin widened, and something wicked flickered in his eyes. "You're mine.Every inch of you belongs to me. If I want to touch, I will."

I let out a sharp breath, my heart hammering as his fingers trailed dangerously slow across my abdomen, just barely ghosting over my belly button.

"S-Sukuna, stop—!"

"You really are an idiot" he mused. "Getting all worked up over this of all things."

Then, before I could react, the mouth on his stomach opened.

My eyes widened in horror but before I could even let out a proper protest, I felt it—a hot, wet tongue dragging up the center of my stomach.

I squeaked, my back arching against my will.

I gasped, the sensation so bizarrely unexpected that I had no idea how to react.

The warmth of his tongue sent an uncontrollable shudder through me and to my utter humiliation, l let out a small, breathless giggle.

Sukuna froze above me. Then, his smirk returned, wider and far more sinister.

"You laughed?"

My face burned. "No, I didn't!"

"You did." His eyes gleamed with satisfaction. "Oh, this is precious."

I barely had time to brace myself before his fingernail traced a slow, teasing circle around my belly button.

I twitched violently, another helpless giggle slipping from my lips as I jerked against my restraints. "Sukuna, stop-!"

His other hand squeezed my hips, fingers digging into the soft flesh with an almost possessive grip.

"Tsk, tsk." He clicked his tongue. "You make such a fuss about this body and yet look at how easily it betrays you."

I let out a sharp gasp as his other hand skated up my ribs, his claws barely grazing the sensitive skin. It sent shivers down my spine, my entire torso so exposed and utterly helpless under his attention.

"Sukuna!" | whined, feeling my face heat up more and more as he continued his torment.

His grin widened as he watched me squirm.

"So sensitive here, huh?"

"S-Stop teasing me!" | twisted, my arms jerking against the restraints, but they held firm. My stomach was completely at his mercy.

"Stop?" He chuckled. "Oh, no, no, no. You started this." His nails danced along my ribs, his tongue lapping at my navel, and his hand gripped my hips like he was marking ownership into my very flesh.

I was overwhelmed. The mix of sensations

his touch, his mouth, the way he relished every reaction I gave him-it was too much.

I was giggling uncontrollably now, breathless, my body betraying me completely.

"You really thought I wouldn't notice how cute you are?" Sukuna's voice was laced with amusement. "You really thought l'd give a damn about some human insecurity? I love this stomach."

I gasped when he nipped at my side, his fangs just barely grazing my skin.

I shivered.

"I-!" | sucked in a breath. "You're so mean!"

Sukuna laughed, his fingers skimming my belly once more, his nails featherlight against my heated skin. "You're the one who asked for this, pet."

"I did not!" I protested but my words were cut off when his tongue flicked against my belly button again, making me squeak.

His hands tightened around me, holding me still, while he dragged his teeth ever so lightly down the center of my abdomen.

"You belong to me" he murmured against my skin, his voice sending a shudder through my already overwhelmed body. "and I don't ever want to hear you talk down on yourself again. Got it?"

I nodded frantically, my cheeks burning.

His smirk deepened, his grip on my hips unrelenting. "Good."

His tongue dragged one more time across my belly before he finally pulled back, looking far too satisfied with himself.

I was left panting, flushed and absolutely flustered.

Sukuna leaned down, his lips brushing my ear. "You should start loving yourself more, pet. Otherwise..." He traced his nail one last time over my ribs. "I'll have to teach you like this every time."

My heart skipped a beat.

I was so screwed.

The fandom's bias and tendency to wanting to agressively associate EVERYTHING with Percy and getting upset when a character isn't associated with him really taints their view on actually significant relationships, and it ruins Percy's canon character tbh.

I came across a video edit appreciating Jason and Nico's friendship, and the comments were just filled with people raging on how Percy should've been included instead of Jason because he was "much closer friends" to Nico than Jason was. It's appalling how much ppl can turn to a blind eye when it comes to Jason.

People hate Jason SO much in this fandom that they literally refuse to admit that Nico canonically considered Jason as his first ever friend, not Percy (this is literally said in Tower of Nero, by the way)

You guys are seriously so hell bent on wanting to take away every little thing jason had that makes his character meaningful, simple to give it to percy when it isn't even necessary. Doesn't percy have enough good characterization already? Why deprive Nico of a genuinely good friendship? Jason spent time and effort to make Nico comfortable and succeeded in earning nicos trust. He taught nico to never push people away and not to be ashamed of being himself, Isn't that beautiful? Why do people get salty abt that so much? Because of course, it's about appreciating Jason for once, and not Percy, isn't that it?

My perspective on Percy and Nico is that, they were never really "close" to begin with and never ended up being close either, and that's okay. Percy tried his very best to be a brother to Nico, but they somehow always had tension with eachother because of Nico's internal turmoil of idolizing and crushing on Percy whilst simultaneously associating him with Bianca.

Sure, they talked it out a little in the end, but I'd like to think that some tension would always be there, because they started off at the wrong foot, and there was too much bitterness and resentment to come in their dynamic. And them never actually being close "brothers" makes their dynamic very significant and authentic. In the end, Nico acknowledged that Percy was a good person, and I like to think that's the farthest they've ever gone in their dynamic. They both are on amicable terms but the awkwardness still being there is very realistic, the weight of Bianca's death would always be associated with Percy to Nico, and it's neither of their faults. That adds SO much to their angsty dynamic, why get so upset about it when it's such an integral, and meaningful part of the story? Nico and Percy not being close friends shows how complex character relationships can be.

Percy doesn't have to be close with everyone just because he's the main character, it really deprives him of actually meaningful connections. The fandom forcing him to be buddy buddy with everyone simply because they HAVE to associate Percy with anyone and everyone, and getting angry that Jason is closer to Nico than Percy is, is just really weird.

Why do people feel SO threatened about Jason all the time that they have to get all defensive and suppress his connections by dragging Percy into videos that doesn't even have to do anything with him? I swear y'all are creating this whole Jason/Percy rivalry thing because you cannot bear to see someone rival Percy, and you want Percy to be the only powerful/good person in the books.

Let other characters befriend eachother without trying to insert Percy in there all the time.

Percy and Nico would never be like Reyna and Nico, or Jason and Nico, and that's completely fine. I like them better that way. You can't be best friends with everyone. That's just how life works.

i'm used to the "hal cannot be anything other than 13 and there is no room for nuance on this matter" argument but the other two statements are so confusing to me. what

[a-god-in-ruins-rises]

actually...

looking at a bunch of my old favorite mutuals blogs that have been inactive for years. i miss them, even if i never really talked to any of them. when you're mutuals with a person for so long they become a comforting presence even without talking. you see them every day and read their posts about their thoughts or feelings or about what's going on in their life and so on. and they just become a part of your daily life in such a subtle way.

and then one day they just never post again. without warning. shit sucks. i actually hate it.

[aquarianlights]

How do you keep going when it looks like 99% of your country has joined a cult whose soul purpose is hatred of everything you & everyone you know & love are when all you're doing is existing just like everyone else?

[metanarrates]

watched a majora's mask analysis earlier today with my fiancee. my verdict is that I actually really enjoyed the op's interpretations, but that I wished that they talked more about mm's literal level and what one can get from it, rather than talking about those events as if they are strictly metaphor. yes, of course the metaphorical layer of the game is rich to dig into, but it's also such an open-ended and surreal game that it's difficult to nail down every single distinct metaphor that can be derived from its events. which is why I consider it necessary to discuss the way the literal layer presents itself and what sort of motifs and ideas exist there as a baseline before you begin looking at it as metaphor

hi it's been a month and a new . hold. is over me. it's called hollow knight. and. I have. like. 50 hours in it. in the past two weeks. 150ish total. and i've almost 100%'d it achievement wise. I already got the pure completion/112% completion achievement the only thing I have left is um the p5 ending which i've gotten really close to. I got to abs-rad last time which is funny because the time before that I got to pv before dying and that's also funny because the time before THAT I got to nkg so each time I only got one boss further so hopefully next time if I make it past pv again i'll beat abs-rad (ofc I need to practice against her but yk (I'm so bad at fighting her)) ALSO tiso is my favorite character he's the best he's my favorite ant EVER second place goes to god tamer she's cool. I hate fighting her tho she actually can ruin my p5 run. boooo. grimm gets me my health back tho he's real one. anyways ig unpopular opinion but I LOVE godseeker idc that she hates ghost in a normal playthrough I heart her she's the best :) and I like cloth a lot too that's a normal opinion I think cloth is really neat! hive knight is also my second favorite character. I loveee the little bit of lore we actually get about him and I like how he goes "bzzz huzzah!" because that's so real hive knight!! huzzah!! and pure vessel. pv. oughh they're totally my favorite fight with hive knight being my second. pure vessel is so much funnn like idc that they already deal double damage like. they're soo much fun!!!! and speaking of vessels lost kin is also the best lost kin makes me want to cry sometimes. ough the nod after you finish the dream battle I KNOW THE LORE I KNOW WHAT THAT NOD MEANS RAHHHHH. I also like monomon and quirrel a lot. jellyfish and pillbug combo my beloved.. I want. the next username I need to make. monomonn. because I love her. and I think her name is super neat. also nkg is pretty cool but like his name is kind of. middle schooler. nightmare king grimm.. muah ah ah... but he's a fun fight he's an enjoyable fight. idc that he's also double damage it's fun!! it's so much fun I love how. he's .pink. anyways. yeagh. bzzz HUZZAH! bzzzzz HUZZAH!

y'all are gonna start making me mute dumb shit huh

[jewishcissiekj]

fun fact they actually did Age of Apocalypse not because of money or character development and exploration but rather because a few months earlier Betsy cut her hair and they were too cowardly to give us short-haired Psylocke for more than two issues so they created this entire 4 months long relaunch for all the X-Titles just so everyone will forget short hair Psylcke is a possibility and may potentially be better than long hair Psylocke

[teenagefeeling]

okay. i have debated making a post like this on and off for about the past decade. and i was always like "well, it didn't directly involve me, and i have 0 evidence, my memory of the details is a little shaky, and i don't think it needs to be a huge deal." but it has been weighing on me more and more recently, and i feel like i should at least tell my mutuals this story because i think about it a lot. and i think it's perhaps a conversation that should be had.

but i wanna preface this first with: this is not an accusation or an assertion that anyone necessarily did anything. not only is this information alleged, it's also something i heard secondhand and not directly from the person (and about 10 years ago) so it would be really hard for me to verify its veracity. wanna make that extremely clear before i imply that someone might have committed a crime. it's a very big MIGHT.

but here's the story: i was on twitter a lot as a teenager and jack and dean used to be pretty friendly with their fans. it was fun, they'd reply to people's tweets, they even commissioned a friend of mine for graphic design work which i thought was really cool. jack, to my knowledge, never dmed any fans in a purely social context. like, he dmed my friend to comission work from her, but they weren't like, chatting bc he didn't do that. dean, however, was a chatter. i never personally talked to dean, but i had a friend who had a friend (that's 2 degrees of separation between me and this story for those keeping count) that used to talk to him i think regularly. one day my friend came into the group chat saying her friend had been messaging dean (we are all about 15/16 here and he would've been like mid-20s) and he was asking her what kind of porn she was into. at the time, i think we as teenage girls were so used to predatory men that all we really did was make fun of him behind his back for a few minutes (iirc he had just gone through a breakup so we were all like "wow, very pathetic that this is what you do when you're depressed"), but i don't think it even occurred to any of us to tell anyone about it. it's like one of those things that happens to you as a kid and ur like fine but you look back on it as an adult and you're like "holy shit how did that adult man think that was okay?"

i thought about it a lot when the cody ko allegations blew up bc imo it's a fairly similar situation, like the victim wasn't even really bothered by it, but it's still obviously wrong. but it just makes me think like, for every cody ko who gets publicly called out, there are probably 10 dean dobbs who just get away with it because the victim never had any intention of speaking up. youtubers just aren't who they say they are. a lot happens when that camera isn't rolling.

[hugsohugs]

changed the he/they in my bio to they/he since i prefer they/them over he/him

honestly the only reason i added the he was so i don't feel a need to correct people on the internet when they assume i'm a guy lol (very common)

like again i prefer they/them but if someone uses he/him for me it's fine. whatever

[ladyartichokie]

I am the only person who has ever been 100% correct about The Characters. Sorry to the rest of you.
