Ok here count how many times I have said that everybody can voice his opinion:
Now, let’s see how many times you have said that players that use mod have no right to voice their opinions:
I’m not asking for mods to be banned. I just want players to be using the intended vanilla experience in order to make judgements on balance and difficulty. That’s all. Not a huge ask. Play for a week without any mods and if it’s still too easy then at least we know it’s based on the level playing field.
And I’ll say it for a 3rd damn time. Yes it is fair for mods to be switched off temporarily so that you can make a proper untainted judgement on difficulty. Then turn your mods back on.
My point, made many times, is that I believe someone using no gameplay mods, is able to make a valid judgement on difficulty or balancing. So yes, if you don’t use gameplay mods but want changes then thats entirely valid imo. Whether we agree on changes is another matter.
Again… we don’t speak about difficulty. We talk about a weapon, the pickaxe.
I still wait one mod that changes the power of a melee weapon… I clearly don’t see any mod that would change the balance of weapons and that would forbid a player that uses mods to voice his opinion about the balance between… let’s say a pickaxe and a latrine shovel.
I can agree that it changes the difficulty of the game, and believe me the ALT+F4 fix (if correctly done) will change it more than the mods, but again… we don’t talk about that. We talk about weapon balance.
I can use all mods I want, it won’t change the balance between 2 weapons…
