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.
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.
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?
Oh, so drag-and-drop mods are equivalent to kernel hacking now? Keep rewriting history, it's adorable.
Why are you talking about kernel hacking?
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.
Still playing clueless? Keep feigning concern, it’s hilarious.
Yeah, I am the troll, lol.
You again? 🥱
Back to tell me that you can't use a Steam Deck without kernel hacking?
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.
Says the one moving them. Classic projection, but keep entertaining me.
Literally proving my point right now. Can't make this up, folks!
Oh, the irony! 😂 Keep clutching those straws while your points crumble. Encore!
Lol. All you've done is sidestep the ad hominem, but sure, go off about irony. Everyone can tell you're gaslighting.
