Looks like the Ghostrunner developers also have an issue with paid mods running off their IP.

    Yes and so what, toxicity exists in any community you goof, I don’t know what your point is. That paying for stuff is bad, or asking to be paid for your work is bad, or wanting money is bad.

    You lack empathy towards people who make mods, what if it’s their only source of income, what if they spend a lot of time making the mod as good as possible so you will want to pay for it. Jesus Christ you’re some kind of idealist there’s no grayzone everything is the extreme with you

      If they want an income source they should find a job.

      Sometimes are sacred, and the community sandbox should never become a sales floor.

        Dude you are exhausting, you live in a fantasy world.

        Unlike you people try to find work they enjoy, either you haven’t worked a day in your life, or you are jealous of people having a better job than you.

        You can’t even fathom that some people are not employable, there’s 1000s of reasons why some people can’t hold a regular job or find a employer that will employ them. But hey, fuck them right

        You don’t own or get to decide what people can sell or not, your talking about some fucking community that is filled with shit as is, and I would bet my life on that you don’t even contribute to said community that you hold so dear. You’re just a leech, prove me wrong.

          I have no interest in “proving” anything to you, but I have contributed to the scene for literal decades in both my talents and funding.

          There are a hundred other revenue streams that don’t require turning the sandbox into a sales floor. Go do one of those. Or don’t, just don’t assume that we’re all going to be okay with it.
