the critical difference being DLC is made by the developer and mods are made by the community

u cant call ppl retarded for disagreeing w/ u. esp when ur entire argument is that if u dont like smthn ur retarded :( it isnt like valve/beth want mods to be free, the end game here is every mod that can be monetized will be monetized, and nickle and diming a $60 game is so fucking stupid plsplsplsplsplsplspls dont support making every single mod in the world $1 or whatever there's so many better ways to do this

"what in gods name"

do u not understand how ppl are going to be mad that a bunch of formerly free content is going to be locked behind a paywall?

it'd be kind of different if skyrim was f2p but its a retail gme with shitloads of functionality now locked behind microtransactions, and that's not good at all. Looking forward, there's very little incentive for any mod worth making being free, and there's really no reason to buy bethesda games if ur not going to mod them (because they've all been shit since morrowind)

no one who is rich in tf2 has been ethical

except like people who used real money but srsly

sweepstakes.tf is broken af right now tho apparently its grabbing unusuals and shit and not delivering properly so yeah dont use IT

its p different from paid cosmetics since putting up a paywall for actual game content on a game u other wise own is still pretty new. There's also the fact that there's still literally no copy protection or way to authenticate the TES engine's plugins, so u can pirate these things pathetically easy. its dumb

also calling ppl who have different opinions retarded is very rude :(

if the best u can say about paywalls is that you can just ignore them, there's no reason for them to exist

there needs to be something worth actually paying for, for this to be worthwhile. While the idea of the workshop is conducive to shit like this, with autoupdates and stuff, its nothing that NMM didn't already offer for free. If they had started shit like this and had tried to create community mod packs for like $2 or something maybe that'd be more positive who knows.

tbh everything about this is hilariously retarded. who tries to monetize a system of modding that has no sort of digital signing or content protection? im more offended by the shear laziness of the system moreso than the system itself

"Ideally this inspires to donate to the content creators but people will never do that. Shitty situation. "

valve removes donation links from workshop pages now apparently

ty pankeyman would you consider a youtube channel or patreon so i can continue to support this high quality conent?

why?

like yeah sure some of the more impressive Oblivion overhauls probably took >1500 hours of scripting from an individual coder, but that doesn't make it professional level material, nor does it mean that you should be compensated. It's like getting paid for writing fanfiction.

its not fun to stand on one side of a choke and have retarded knockback put you into their combo

but that's valve's fault and that's rare enough that the weapon shouldnt be banned

all ur doing is contributing to the lolugc mindset and having an excuse for not being an admin that actually takes care of the league and promotes an actually health division

placement badges would be the hypest thing ever for lower level players tbh

isnt sandbagging more ur fault than the badges?

ooh no iso convinced me to shitpost about something and then we were WRONG

:(

ur gonna have some real interstin tf2 if IM is 3 teams all playing each other

when im dies?

i have osteochondrosis in my elbow lol

but i am payed up so if u need someone to backup or keep ur roster ready for lockdown hmu i guess

i cant play for like a WEEK

theyre COOL
