Mods and Pirating

Closed
Bassnium

So I was thinking about this while mods were brought up in a chat I was in- Am I the only person who has never used a mod and never plans on using a mod? I mean, I don't see why I should mod. I like the base game, and I'll pay for whatever DLC I want, but I don't use mods. I feel that there's no need.

Kinda off topic- Pirating. Same response here- Never have, don't plan on ever doing it. I've used bit.torrent for one thing- Black Mesa Source. I mean, I don't even do it to see if I want to buy it. I don't use demos either. I'm almost always right when I think I will like a game enough to buy it. Anyone else like this?

Also- 2000 comments. Woo!

Look, everyone, I'm not an idiot. I KNOW there are mods that improve graphics and UI, I KNOW not all mods are for cheating. Seriously, give me comments other than just praising mods and telling me what mods are. -.-

Your way of thinking is all circle jerked, first you say that you don't use mods and they are not interesting and they detract from the game experience. Then you say "I KNOW there are mods that improve graphics and UI, I KNOW not all mods are for cheating", what do you want from us?

What do you want us to tell you? Us praising mods will typically go in hand with why one would use mods. If that doesn't tell you anything then maybe mods just aren't for you.

I think OP just wants attention and wants to feel like he belongs so he's erecting up a giant "lel I dunt use mods anyone else who dunt use mods?"

To see if there was anyone else who realized that mods aren't nearly as great as they are praised to be

You're convinced that mods are worthless; what are you trying to accomplish with this thread?

Games like Dark Souls are unplayable without mods. Many games are objectively better with mods. Older games are still alive because of the modding community.

And hell, some games exist only because they were mods.

A good few people are just trying to give good examples of mods. And I do have a good one - a knights of the nine 'expansion' mod for oblivion that extended the story from the official DLC by a large amount, complete with voice acting and all sorts of nifty features, and is fairly highly praised. It is not required to enjoy oblivion, but it could easily add 10+ hours of new gameplay from what I have heard.

And I have heard of similar mods being in the works for Skyrim. Hope they aren't scrapped though.
