Ship of Theseus - philosophic question about modding

| If I mod every single aspect of Skyrim, is it still Skyrim?


| Well, while Skyrim allows you to mod almost everything, you're still pretty much stopped at the point of modding the engine itself (although I guess you could argue that that's bendable, at least), so on some level, it's still Skyrim, or at least the same engine from Fallout 3.


| I'd say it isn't. Skyrim as a product is just a time sink made for the lowest common denominator and nothing more. While mods actually allow non-retarded people to enjoy the game for a short while.


| Not necessarily, I'd say if you're playing in a different overworld with different basic mechanics and lore I wouldn't call that skyrim but another game in skyrims engine, sorta how many consider project m to be its own game despite being in brawls engine


| If you are not playing skyrim at that point what are you playing? I think we need to answer this before deciding.


| just show a guy who know their skyrim. if they can't tell then it's no longer skyrim
