My brother doesn't "believe" in Skyrim modding. What can I show him to convince him? (lemmy.world)

He's 19, 4 years younger than me. I played Vanilla when it released and started modding when I was 15. He still plays Skyrim now from time to time and honestly, he knows it better than I do. Does glitches, has full ebony armor, etc. Anyway, I've been doing some Xbox modding recently and he has this stupid mentality that mods are "retarded" and ruin the feel of the game, and that the flaws of vanilla are what make it good. Even when I've said, "Well you gotta run out of content, so what then? Why not mod?" And his response is essentially just, "It's not made by Bethesda therefore it's bad, and it's not canon so it's equally bad. Every mod doesn't fit in Skyrim". I've tried showing him the Inigo mod and explained how much better he is than vanilla followers but he just won't have it.

I am at a loss. He is missing out on HUNDREDS of new content.
