>/v/ will still defend modding
Mods are destroying gaming and you know it.
Fallout 4 is a clear example of how modding is destroying gaming. Instead of producing quality games, companies like Bethesda are just releasing shit with the full expectation that modders will fix all of the problems and add the actual gameplay. If modding didn't exist, these companies would need to actually create good games in order to sell. The fact that people willingly buy games like Fallout 3/4 KNOWING full well that the base game will be shit should tell you where the problem lies.

God, either this website has gone to shit or this is all just some sort of meta-meme surreal fever dream.

>original already has toppings (cheese)
can you please do your bait right next time?
>>333809839
Half the games out there today are technically mods of the engines they were released on.
To this day, I think CoD is still produced on heavily modified idTech 3 Engine.
AKA, CoD BO3 is a heavily modified Quake 3.

Bait thread, but I'll bite.
You do know that you don't have to play mods if you don't want to?
You are trying to spark a discussion about something that's a personal choice.
>mods are destroying gaming
No. Mods are being made to enhance the games.
>Half-Life
>Stalker
>TF2
>Oblivion, Skyrim
Nobody is forcing you to play with mods. Nobody is forcing you to play shitty mods.
Mods been there for literal ages. For example, remember game trainers? I thought you wouldn't.
Some of them weren't just for cheating.
Mods are disrespectful to the creator's work
I'm not saying DLC is any better, but you take a game and turn it into a tittie anime simulator or just cheat your way through it, that's retarded
Also, like the second reply said, companies like Bethesda (especially Bethesda) never bother to patch bugs or fix things in their games, even though there will be a large amount of mods that fix that shit alreay. Fucking disgusting buisness practice and a "lol, fuck you" to the customers
>>333809839
Mods are F U N
reminder
>>333809885
this guy brings up a good point, but all the butthurt pc fags are going to ignore that and go for the bait OP
>its another thread in which annon tries to use food to make his point
Your fatness is showing op
>>333809839
Mods have been around for decades. If it was going to destroy gaming it would have done it years ago.
>>333811627
Add ponies and anime bitches and lol so random shit and explosions to the bottom image
>>333809839
Except modding would be the customer at the table adding pepper, cheese, or whatever to their plate. Mods aren't suddenly added to your dish by the chef, they are added by you, on a completely voluntary basis.
>>333811270
add xcom 2 to that list now
>>333811475
>Mods are disrespectful to the creator's work
This argument assumes that all games are thoughtfully designed, tested, and balanced.
Which is demonstrably false. When devs drop the ball, someone has to pick up the slack.
>>333811815
Go to any high quality restaurant and you won't find salt and pepper on the table, lol. The chef serves the dish exactly how its meant to be.
>>333809839
Well this is an interesting shitpost...
>>333809885
But Fallout 4 is a console game.
>>333811968
>implying any of these faggots leave the house, much less go to quality dining establishments
>>333811867
Thats a difference between unnoficial bug fixes, patches, and other similar things. (Which still aren't a good thing, proven by Bethesda not fixing their own games and letting modders do it)
The chess one was better
>>333811968
You won't find it on the table because the server brings it around for you.
>>333809885
Bait aside, if devs are lazy then they are the problem, not mdoders.

I know what the "patient" in patient sentinel stands for.
>>333812128
Modding is a safety net for shitty devs. As long as that net is there for them to fall back on, they will continue to create shitty games.
Do I go to an art gallery and start scribbling all over the paintings?
Do I go watch a movie, only to smear shit on the screen and say it's a better experience?
Do I go to a restaurant , order a high quality meal, and then bust out my own bottle of ketchup and drown an 80$ steak in it?
What are some examples of dev-made mods?
>food analogy
>>333812247
>art gallery
>movies
Non-interactive.
>video games
Interactive. And to build on that food analogy, a good restaurant would provide you with ketchup.
>>333812247
No it appears you're too busy shitposting to do anything like that.
>>333812247

Thanks
If someone were just retarded I could understand it, you can not choose to be retarded, you just are.
Being stupid is a choice. You choose to do this. Why? Please explain, if you can.
Maybe if the joke is funny, but this is not funny. Just dumb.
>>333812042
Notice I included the word "balance" in there. This is not limited to just bug fixes, but lazy development in general.
Just throwing random enemies in random places with random stats is not a bug. But still something that should be patched/modded out.
>>333812672
For the (you)'s
ITT: console babies "fox and grapes" modding
This is why console gaming will always be superior. The only games that get modders and hackers are old and nobody cares about them anymore.
>>333810346
Both. You can't have a terrible website without memes.
>>333809839
You know what the great thing about modding is?
You can have both plates of pasta.

Let's make a good use of this thread
What are the bestlewdmods
>>333809885
Fallout 4 started as a mod for skyrim.
>>333812936

>art gallery
More like you buy a piece of art and scribble on it. And in that case you're the one doing it and it's not ruining anything for anyone else.
>>333809839
Here's a better analogy
>Vanilla: Chips
>Mod: Chips with tomato sauce
t. Dev trying to sell DLC
>>333814347
t. Retard who can't come up with a counter argument
>>333813137
And what do you know.
They're both shit.
>>333809885
Look, when you buy a game you exchange money for fun right? So who cares whether that fun comes from Bethesda or some modder? As long as Bethesda isn't trying to make money off the modder's work, I see no problem with this.
That aside, sure vanilla Fallout 4 and Skyrim are buggy incomplete shit, but so are like 90% of triple-A games released these days. Modding has nothing to do with it.
>>333815402
Nah Bethesda games have always been buggier than most
It's the engine they use
