That's nuts. Why bother releasing it at all?

Cut as in "we've already added mods to make the game ugly":

God yeah, it's unbelievably ugly. And it's bizarrely hardware hungry, slow and laggy. While I enjoy Daggerfall Unity (without mods) this is an utter disgrace. It doesn't even look like Daggerfall anymore, more like a parody.

Way to look a gift horse in the mouth - the Daggerfall Unity could use a better artist for flat sprites or whatever, but overall, I'd contend that it is worth claiming, in that it's not bad. I tried it, it's pretty smooth, fast, looks nice and has the Daggerfall feel. Also, Daggerfall itself is still free as well, so I don't know. The sprites may need work, but whoever did the textures and sound did a smashing job.

So, if I were to create a modpack and post it somewhere online, do I have to get permission from the modders as well? They are giving the game away for free, so there are no royalties to worry about. I don't see the issue here, especially since all mods are listed with links and creator names. Oh, it does indeed look terrible.

Your ignore list.

That's what they all claim. There's nothing that legally requires you to, however.

Because 99% of modders are narcissistic faggots that believe their work is the most important mod ever made.

In theory the permission would never be denied and the purpose is to make the modder aware because the mod might still be getting updates, so he doesn't have to figure out the bug reports are coming from an outdated version included in some pack he didn't know about.
