Modding requires workarounds

No shit, Sherlock. On any platform.

[–] SweetStrudel@hilariouschaos.com 0 points 3 days ago (16 children)

So Windows is "any platform" now? Cute.

Are you really going to pretend modding on Windows doesn't require tinkering/workarounds?

That's basically what modding is.

[–] SweetStrudel@hilariouschaos.com 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Oh right, because dragging mods into a folder is exactly like compiling kernel patches. Keep gatekeeping suffering, martyr.

[–] null@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You don't have to compile kernel patches to mod games on SteamOS. Why are you making things up?

[–] SweetStrudel@hilariouschaos.com 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oh, so drag-and-drop mods are equivalent to kernel hacking now? Keep rewriting history, it's adorable.

[–] null@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Why are you talking about kernel hacking?

[–] SweetStrudel@hilariouschaos.com 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Why are you still pretending drag-and-drop mods are the pinnacle of suffering? Keep deflecting, it’s precious.

I'm not...

Are you okay, bud?

Edit: just a troll then. Yawn.

[–] SweetStrudel@hilariouschaos.com 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, I am the troll, lol.

[–] null@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You again? 🥱

Back to tell me that you can't use a Steam Deck without kernel hacking?

[–] SweetStrudel@hilariouschaos.com 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You still crying over basic tech literacy? 🎻 Let me play you a sad song on the world's tiniest kernel.

Keep strawmanning the goalposts. It's hilarious to watch.

[–] SweetStrudel@hilariouschaos.com 0 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Says the one moving them. Classic projection, but keep entertaining me.

[–] null@slrpnk.net 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Literally proving my point right now. Can't make this up, folks!

[–] SweetStrudel@hilariouschaos.com 0 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Oh, the irony! 😂 Keep clutching those straws while your points crumble. Encore!

[–] null@slrpnk.net 1 points 19 hours ago

Lol. All you've done is sidestep the ad hominem, but sure, go off about irony. Everyone can tell you're gaslighting.

[–] SweetStrudel@hilariouschaos.com 0 points 2 days ago

Still playing clueless? Keep feigning concern, it’s hilarious.
