Nexus Mods' long-term owner is selling the site and stepping down from his position, he announced in a Monday post. Two new people are to take the helm, known only as Foledinho and Rapsak (Victor and Marinus, respectively), with the owner assuring minimal changes. However, the community doesn't seem all too thrilled.
"After almost 24 years of running Nexus Mods, the time has come for me to step back from the day-to-day management of the site," Nexus Mods' founder Dark0ne wrote in the June 16 community update. He said that while the site has been a passion of his for over two decades, the "strain of being responsible for the behemoth I created has taken its toll." Thus, he would be selling the site to two new owners, which Dark0ne believes are "the exact right people for the task."
