Not too shocking. A lot of mods will break or cause other issues with pirated versions of games. Seen it many times in the Bethesda modding community. And not only will the authors not provide support to anyone who complains of issues originating from pirated copies, they also have considerable contempt for pirates and many will ban or request a ban against those who out themselves as such. |
Though this puts some people like me, who try to disassociate from Steam as much as possible, in a compromising position. That said, thankfully I can just play the XO version for more or less the same type of support.
I really wish Bethesda would use their own launcher to distribute games. I bet many pirates would stop if they had a non Steam distributor...
