Gmod mods
It's a choiceIt's most important to remember that this is a choice. This is something that will get better with time. I don't know whose choice that is though, but it feels like someone is being a greedy asshole. It's obvious that Valve and the game developer need to make money here too, enough to cover costs at least - but it's the modder's work that is making the money. The modders should be getting the majority share of the revenue from this - that just seems like common sense. That's the wrong way around in my opinion. So obviously Valve and Game Devs are the biggest winners right now. Actual mod support from game devs (because they directly profit from it).Should we really let the fact that sometimes people are assholes dictate what we do? Or should we just deal with it when it happens? Who is winningSo lets take a look at what is in this for everyone. There was a time where they'd almost completely stopped making PC games because of piracy. People will upload stolen stuffI've said it a million times - If "people are assholes on the internet" was a reason not to do something then we'd never do anything Stuff is going to happen. Valve's job is to make it more convenient for you to not pirate stuff. That's what we all did when we were kids with no money. You're a kid and you don't have any moneySo find a way to pirate them. Are they worth more to you than whatever else you're going to spend the money on? No? Well don't buy them, do without. You don't need these mods, you just want them. You don't have to buy anythingNo-one is holding a gun to your head. They'll either have to lower their price or make it worth the price.

If a mod takes 10 seconds to make and someone wants to charge $10 for it then they won't sell any copies because it's not worth it. Some people won't want paying for their stuff.

So here's some important points: There are still free modsA lot of the craziness seems to come from the thought that no-one will ever release their mods for free. It's created a company that has hired 30+ people. It's bought me two houses, a bunch of cars. I sold a mod once and everyone was angry that it was happening, until it happened and they got a much better product than they'd have gotten when it was released for free, then they seemed to calm down a bit. It's probably no big suprise that I'm all for it. There's a lot of craziness about paid mods, a lot of people who don't know how they feel.
