    I don’t think that’s at all comparable. People expecting mods to be free just because they’re built off an existing game is absurdity. I haven’t charged for any mods, but I’ve spent more than enough time working on mods to justify a price tag.

      Mods always used to be passion projects by volunteers, motivated purely by the love for the game and the community and the vision of the mod. This is what made the modding scene special to many. Is it really suprising that people are sad to see this culture being changed by monetization now, especially if they suddenly can’t afford mods?

        That’s an ass hole mentality. It’s up there with expecting artist to do work for free, for “exposure.”
