Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
I hate cheaters! I don't even know why I joined this site.
In all seriously it all depends on YOU. As long as you don't ruin someone else experience, mainly online games.
For me I'm 50-50 sometimes I play legit sometimes I play for fun and by fun I mean walk around not dying and not running out of ammo.
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
It depends on the game. For a game like, let's say, Assault Horizon: AC I don't need to cheat, 'cause it's already sick as fuck. Generally though, I just add money. For RPGS, I just add more spells/MP. To me, modding makes a game much, much more fun.

Very informative i like it.
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
It really depends. I personally play my games legit first, then mod. I agree with Ren, it adds replay value to any game; it also gives a deep look into what might have been planned for the game but never made the cut (Ocarina of Time, for instance) or even stuff that IS in the game and nobody knew about. Also, if I can help it, I always mod my saves myself, because I feel like using editors makes my skills rusty (of course, there are plenty of exceptions, likes games that have security, though I'm figuring out how to fix that as well). I do think it's lazy when somebody mods a game from the beginning without even attempting it normally.
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
It really depends on the type of person. I personally I like to see what all I can unlock before I play and then play legit to see what can't be gotten without modding. Also one of the reasons it take me so long to submit things.
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
Nono, it didn't make players lazy. Mods are a great way to.... aw what the heck, it made me lazy. LOL
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
I like to play a game like watching a movie...over and pretty quick; and if I like it, I'll watch (play) it again. I'm just too busy most of the time doing something else. Of course, this is the "campaign" I am talking about.
Re: Has modding made gamers LAZY?
I was always lazy, the modding had nothing to do with it =3
but seriously... I take it as a time saver... when I was young I spent days lvling my chars in rpgs so I could have an edge in the upcoming fights... as I grow older I dont want to lose precious time wasting in xp or gold farming... just hack the hell out of it \o/
