You're forced to mod Skyrim to play it?

Who's forcing you to tinker? Are they in the room with us right now?

Is the gun to your head invisible or just your comprehension? Modding requires workarounds—nobody forces you to breathe either, yet here you are.

Modding requires workarounds

No shit, Sherlock. On any platform.

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Why are you talking about kernel hacking?

[–] [email protected] 1 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?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, I am the troll, lol.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You again? 🥱

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 21 hours 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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

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