Nexus Mods, a popular modding platform, finds itself at the center of a heated debate after removing over 500 user-submitted modifications for the game Marvel Rivals in a single month. The controversy ignited when mods replacing Captain America's head with images of Joe Biden and Donald Trump were taken down.
The platform's owner, known as TheDarkOne, addressed the situation on Reddit, clarifying that both mods were removed simultaneously to prevent accusations of political bias. TheDarkOne stated, "We removed the Biden mod on the same day as the Trump mod to avoid bias. But for some reason YouTube bloggers are silent about it."
However, this action did not quell the outrage. TheDarkOne revealed that the removal resulted in a barrage of threats and hateful messages. "Today we're receiving death threats, being called pedophiles, and subjected to all sorts of insults simply because someone chose to escalate this issue," TheDarkOne added.
This isn't the first time Nexus Mods has faced backlash over mod removals. A similar incident occurred in 2022, involving a Spider-Man Remastered mod that replaced rainbow flags with American flags. At that time, the platform's stance on inclusivity and the removal of discriminatory content was publicly affirmed.
TheDarkOne concluded with a statement reflecting the platform's commitment to its policies: "We're not going to waste our time on people who think this is cause for uproar."
