MODERATORS
Come on now, let's be honest : as long as the community keep doing the work for them, their games will be popular. All they gotta do is make it easy to make mods and the jankiness and stupid decisions can be patched over and made into something great that actually pleases everybody, because everybody can decide to fix what they want.
The problem is their delusion that people love their games as they are.
Even this is a stretch to be honest. Their games aren't easy to mod. Minor updates break shit. You need to consider mod load order. You need to "clean" the base files before loading in any big mods.
Their games are made of fucking speghetti code and they don't care. They could fix it, but they don't. They could clean their own base game files so this isn't necessary, but they would rather force people into the ecosystems of Creation Club.
