Anyways, I dunno. You seem to be suggesting that "artificial fun" equates to no fun at all. I mean really, this is basically what the vanilla game is anyway, it's the same thing. Regardless of what's put into the game, people use their imaginations and deduce their own idea of fun from it. Bungie may not have initially intended for people to speed around Sandtrap on ghosts pretending they're F1 drivers, but if people find this entertaining is it any different from modding?

In both cases you're essentially adding your own ideal of fun to the game that wasn't there previously. The only difference being that in one case the modders have done your imagining for you.

and i'm saying their idea of fun is stupid
Mods can be "cheats", but that doesn't make every single mod a cheat.Making it look better, adding more content and fixing it aren't cheats in any sense.
not to mention, using mods is basically cheating
How is using a mod that restored deleted content like in KoTOR 2 cheating?
Quote from: BerzerkCommando on April 23, 2015, 06:04:22 PMHow is using a mod that restored deleted content like in KoTOR 2 cheating?because the content never should have been deleted in the first place
As I said before the reason why it got deleted is because Lucasarts out of nowhere cut the deadline on the developers. It's the same case with Halo 2. Microsoft decided to have a far earlier release date which resulted in Bungie having to redue the whole game or scrape most of it.
