Has modding made gamers LAZY?
Do you AGREE or DISAGREE? Are we, as gamers, getting lazy when it comes to playing Games? Do we depend too much on save editing etc to get through our games? Does anyone really play games legitimately anymore?
What do YOU think?
(Just for the record, I support modding in all its shapes and forms. I'm just curious as to what everyone else thinks about his.) :-l
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
I am down with playing Legitimate or modding my saves. It opens more doors to knowledge as well as giving us the edge to have more fun and replay value.
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
I play it legit first and then mess around with modding after beating the game.
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
If it makes gamers lazy, then I must be the laziest gamer of them all.
I've been cheating on games since the Game Genie days. I've owned and been through most of the cheat devices that have come out since.
Nowadays, I do save editing. To me it only adds on to the fun of the game and of course makes replayable.
I consider it more of "Game Enhancing" than cheating.
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
i love playing legitimately at times but also love modding games too lol, but i dont think that makes us lazy just creative and driven :-l
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
Creative and driven is a damn good way to put it!
Ah... I'm already having nostalgia about my cmgsccc.com days!
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
Lazy would only be the correct term if there was some sort of ulterior motive to gaming. Eg: modding to get achievements alone and not to play the game in a more advanced way. I too had a Game Genie and since then have played both vanilla and in a modded sense. Some games are more fun when modded and some are better vanilla. To the people who bitch and moan about us, it's our way of paying and showing who we are. Modding is fun and will continue to grow. Count on it ;)

Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
Personally, I only mod a game to make it more fun for me, or I can't be bothered dying 20 billion times because of the game being cheap with enemies etc.
It's each to their own I suppose, some games I wouldn't have played all the way through without mods because they were either cheap or took too long to unlock features I felt defined the game.

Totally agree with this.
