"Programmers sure do hate when their efforts on a game engine go towards only one product and then never see the light of day again. Leave it the fuck alone, you amateur mongoloid."

and as we all know, everything phil fish says is wrong, because he's phil fish

though tbh i don't at all see the relevance of that quote

Not an actual quote. It was a joke. Just seems like something he'd say. He probably has.

Video games are not paintings; you are not throwing acid on a painting when you mod a game. The game doesn't break for everyone, nor it needs millions of dollars in repairs and care to put it back in an art gallery or museum. You are changing the game in a way that it pleases you; that it makes it more fun for you and others who share a similar opinion. Understand what video games, mods and art are before making such a wild statement.

Or a rational individual who respects art rather than tarnishes it.

Isn't that the guy who rage quit after making more stupid statements, and being overly dramatic on social media? Who also was accused of rigging an indie competition for Fez? Who happened to be in a film stating that "he has no money" when he has an iMac, consoles and a large apartment filled with his hipster swag?

Pretty much. He's the overconfident douchebag designer who was commonly shit on for treating Fez like the second coming of Jesus.

Or, you could play a different game.

Buying another game means spending more money. The truly dumb thing is not wringing all of the possible enjoyment you can out of something before moving on.

Don't tell me what to do Verbatim.

I swear, if you get another one of my threads locked over a stupid argument. I will do whatever I can to make sure you end up with a longer ban for your fucking derailment. I will not stand to this bullshit.

Don't like the mods? DON'T DOWNLOAD THEM! DON'T INSTALL THEM! SIMPLE AS THAT!

Quote from: Verbatim on April 22, 2015, 09:59:43 PM

If I was a developer, I would be insulted if people started modding my games.
It would be a fucking insult.

Well you're not. I'm the developer here on this site when it comes to MY content, and I would be perfectly fine with people modding my shit.

It gives people practices by giving them existing building blocks to play around with so they can one day create they're own building blocks and become... gee... Developers!

I don't think he's ever going to understand. His headmeat doesn't work like that.

Which is why I'm going to one day make a prototype that can allow others to develop content for it and add it into the game.

Though I'm not too sure if Unity would allow me to do what without giving up the project folder, and so far builds can't be decomplied fully for modding.

Modding a game is doing the opposite of that. Most people who mod games haven't wrung out all of the possible enjoyment they could out of the vanilla game. Which is stupid.
