I dont play this game like a story teller. I play on easy, with weak raids, with no insta colonist death, no friendly fire, and with reloads enabled. I just wanna build a cool colony! But it got me thinking...

How do you guys play? super hardcore or really chill, somewhere in the middle perhaps? I wanna know.

even though people do get bullied as soon as a mod is "unbalanced"

How do you mean bullied?

People will argue over a mod that makes the game easier in some way. I imagine bullying does happen, though that might depend on your definition. I know I myself would laugh at somebody using mods that make the game easier while claiming they don't, and while I don't have examples for RimWorld, it reminds me of a funny terraria video.

To me the issue is, all kinds of mods have a place, whether it's cosmetic, content expansion, quality of life, straight up cheats, but the categorizations should be respected.

What will absolutely cause an argument is somebody talking about difficulty or their accomplishments while using mods that make a game easier, especially if they're not upfront about it.
