Addons/Mods

[Vampyr]

IIRC there will be mod/addon support roughly 6 months into launch, why couldn't it be sooner!

Addons generally help take out the issues people get annoyed with.

Whos looking forward to addons?

I'm against addons, always have been, any game. It has 2 issues, constant updating of things that are not part of the game, which gets old, and it lets the developers get lazy, because most of the items are things they should, themselves have in the game.

Typical ignorant post about add-ons stemming from a fear of not understanding how add-on works and a misconstrued view about how add-ons actually affect the game.

If you knew anything about development, you'd know that releasing add-on tools (an 'API' is what they call it) to users would enable the development to focus on non-UI/cosmetic related changes and could tackle much more prevalent issues such as animation-based attacks; lag that makes it so you can't hit mobs; the balancing of melee vs. ranged classes which is completely out-of-whack. I hope you get the idea but saying that add-ons are useless and hurt the game is ignorant and makes you look an idiot.

Wow way to overreact to someone sharing their opinion! If you read what Vampyr said you would find they didn't call add-ons useless or that they hurt the game. Her malaise towards add-ons seems more focused on maintaining them and a moral issue of developers being lazy. The only person looking like an ignorant idiot here is you.

Except they don't. At best they offer alerts saying "Hey this ablity procced, click it!" or "The boss is chargeing this ablityl do something!"

Once could argue that depending on add-ons to tell you what to do, as opposed to doing it for you could also be considered playing the game for you.

That all being said, I like add-ons

You'd be surpised how many people still stand in the stuff the addons tell them not to stand in.
