Thread 718840498

So let me get this straight
>Guy makes a Balatro mod for Melee
>Bafflingly paywalls it for $10
>People rightfully call him out for paywalling a fucking Nintendo mod that costs more than actual dlc characters in Ultimate did
>Even more bafflingly, Zoomers rush to his defense and cry out how "you're just mad that you're broke. He made the mod he deserves to get paid for it!" not understanding that it's fucking illegal to paywall a copyrighted IP mod
Is this why the Industry is so terrible nowadays? Why are they like this?

>>718840498 (OP)
Why would you even want to put this in your game, let alone pay for it?

>>718840498 (OP)
Are you new on planet Earth or something? Pointlessly spending money on some pointless shit and claiming that you did it because you're "rich" is an one of the most widespread normalcattle "flexes" with which they attempt to establish themselves in normalcattle pen. ESPECIALLY if it's about $10.

why do you force yourself to be up-to-date on every extremely minor "literally who?" tier piece of internet drama

zoomers live rent free in your head op

>>718840670
You guys are literally retarded. The point is that paid mods are fucking cringe and you deserve to be publicly ridiculed if you paywall your mods, especially if they're low effort shit like in OP's post.

>>718840737
for the record i'm a zoomer who pays for nothing, and you're a fag op sorry my generation torments your every waking moment

Yeah the next generation is fucked
Zoomers destroying the industry and when it's all said and done they'll look back and blame someone else

>>718840498 (OP)
why doesn't the balatro dev sue him for royalties.

>paywalls it
can't someone just immediately upload it for free somewhere? what's he gonna do?

It's just a skin. How lame. I wanted a full character.

>>718840945
>590 likes on the "this sucks" comment
>2 likes each for the "you suck" replies
>Conclusion: Zoomers are [yadda yadda]
Hm. How do I explain to you people that this framing is incredibly stupid? Because it's so retarded I don't think you're even aware you're doing it, otherwise you would have hidden the Likes count.

>>718840498 (OP)
kill yourself

>>718840945
Twitter retards defend the dumbest shit
A few months back I said it was a terrible idea to put money in an animals mouth and I got lambasted for it
You're still a faggot for caring about generation labels btw

>>718841105
Not make other mods, it looks well made and cool, so I assume these are pajeets and 3rd worlders

>>718840498 (OP)
> Zoomers rush to his defense and cry out how "you're just mad that you're broke. He made the mod he deserves to get paid for it!" not understanding that it's fucking illegal to paywall a copyrighted IP mod

lol. That's why no companies want to hire zoomers. They don't care about what's legal or not. They just want to push their narrative because their feelings were hurt.

Mods are only fine if it's free. As soon as you make money off a IP you don't own.... you're just asking for Nintendo lawyers to fuck you up.

>>718841105
The funniest part is someone almost immediately uploaded it and linked it in his replies as a fuck you
He then posted this

>>718841290
When you post a comprehensive explanation of what ad hominem means, you don't have an excuse for misusing it. Which you are doing, because I didn't attack your character or use irrelevant trivia about you to dismiss your argument. Instead I pointed out how the two comments do not represent a whole generation of people because they are wildly unpopular compared to the other reply. Did you even read the text of this image? At least read the Example

The irony should be suffocating you by now

>>718840670
But this is fucking illegal lack straight to Nintendo pounding you in the ass prison illegal to charge for. Are you fucking retarded?

>>718840498 (OP)
zoomers defending paid mods is such a strange phenomenon but I've seen it elsewhere too. It's a sign something is rotten. Mods are one of the last bastions of pure creativity and community unattached to profit motif. People make mods purely for the fun of it.
I guess when you're raised on something like Roblox, that essentially tries to turn a pure sandbox akin to Gmod or Minecraft into a market, you lose your humanity in the process.
I hate this shit, man.

>>718840498 (OP)
Isn't the character also called Balatro and not Jimbo?
Of course kids who only know things from memes dickride a grifter.

are these the same retard zoomers who come to call everyone poor turd worlders for refusing to blow $1500 on a gpu that still can't hit 60 fps without fake resolution and fake frames?

why would anyone listen to messages from randos? like how is cyberbullying real, just walk away from the screen lmao

>>718842325
I pointed out how unsanitary this video was and people thought I was being retarded, and that it's okay since rabbits eat their own shit.

>>718842176
what games do kids actually play these days? is it really just roblox?

>>718842747
That and Minecraft I think.
But Roblox is like one of those flash game websites. Same shit different day really.

>>718842839
at least flash games were free

>>718840498 (OP)
a what now
is this an advertisement thread?

>>718842716
money's pretty unsanitary in general, if you work retail you're liable to get any given seasonal flu real early on specifically because of all the money you handle.
that said I still wouldn't want to exacerbate that by putting it in an animal's mouth, nevermind how liable they are to just fucking eat it.

>>718840498 (OP)
I know a guy who bought each smash ultimate dlc characters one at a time. I think he didn’t buy one character

He also has Battleborn tattoos on his arms that look like barcodes

>>718840498 (OP)
Just pirate it
What is he you going to do? Call Nintendo over the game THEY made and HE modded?

>>718840498 (OP)
Thats genius lmao I hope he got a lot of money from retards that play those shitty games

>>718842747
My niece was huge into Roblox a few years back. Kids really love it nowadays

>>718843095
It was immediately leaked and he got ran out of the community

Leave that big floofy rabbit boy alone. No customer has to use the rabbit service but for those that like it they have the option of rabbit service

>>718843056
They would ban you from tournaments if you don't have the license and they'd send lawyers after you, kid.

>>718840945
zoomers literally lived through the biggest slippery slope in history and they are like "it's a fallacy"

>>718842176
Actually money is how the community steers work.

who's gonna tell him?

>>718844020
Anon, Zoomers were born in 1996. You do know most of them grew up with Melee and Brawl and Smash 4 right?

>>718840498 (OP)
if somebody makes a paid mod for a nintendo game, then report them to nintendo and watch them go broke.

>>718843590
die you fucking fat kike, die. I hope you die drowned in a sea of chicken tendies for tainting modding forever

It's funny how often you see this argument on /v/.

>>718840498 (OP)
>He made the mod he deserves to get paid for it
He doesn't, but he has the right to withhold it if he wants, even if that means to be retarded and paywall it for more than he deserves (i.e. $0). You are not entitled to other people's work.

>>718840498 (OP)
You're not entitled to someone elses work just because you want it. Everything after this is just post-rationalisation

>>718842716
what the fuck besides being unsanitary this is animal slavery

>>718842176
people do paid for commission mod for real money so it is too late for every mod to be free

>>718840945
i fuck this zoomer femboy, and he's very much one of the "just say you're broke" types. he said the exact line last weekend to me when i said i don't really want to pay 70 bucks plus tax plus tip for metal gear solid 3 unreal edition, and he said.
>dang, just say you're broke
i was like you live with your parents you little fruit. i literally bought the jeans i stripped him out of. zoomer logic is terrifying. one time he wanted to wear the pants for 2 seconds and i had him order pizza for us from a really good but pricey place. the "you're broke" mentality really came out watching him biting down while looking at the prices. even had him drop a 10% tip. i paid him back because i know he can't afford it, but this is exactly the kind of person calling you broke. anyways, thanks for reading my blog.

Remind me of that one Goku mod for Utlimate where the creator decided to keep it as a forever wip with versiok 0.9 done so he doesn't have to release it for free, and adding some some anti piracy bullshit so kemono is a no-go

If you don't spend money for a skin mod of a pirated game you're brown

>>718847275

anything negative that follows in your story is something you fully deserve

Unrelated but are you big and manly to contrast with your zoomer femboy? Please say yes, it's hot.

>>718840498 (OP)
Those are the kinds of people who deserve C&Ds.
If you want to get paid for your work, make something original.
>B-but, then it's so hard to get visibility!
Yeah, no shit.

>>718847737
yes, i started bodybuilding, wrestling, and swimming in high school. i do it less seriously now as i don't compete, but i'm still bigger than 99% of people in a crowd. i like to grab him by the hips and bicep curl with him.

>>718840498 (OP)
Paid mods are such cancer, I dont mind the mod creator having a tip jar to get some money but youre literally modifying a game that isnt yours. The mod itself should be freely available.

>>718847275
Calling people broke when you can barely afford pizza is some real 60 IQ behaviour

Rat him out to Nintendo for profiting off their IP. He might end up in jail.

>Calling people broke when you can barely afford pizza is some real 60 IQ behaviour
i know, and the mentality is really weird because he's not a retard, a little dopey sure, but not full blown drooler. if there's something he can't afford, he'll just state it outright. the "you're broke" only comes out when it's in defense of something he/zoomers like. it doesn't make any sense at all. i

>>718840498 (OP)
>$10 for a character skin (not even a brand new character, a SKIN)
Meanwhile Akaneia adds brand new characters and stages and doesn't even accept donations, let alone charge any money for it. So does pretty much every other Smash mod in existence.
I don't know why zoomers think they deserve to get paid for every fucking wet fart they make.

melee and balatro are boring

>>718841105
ABAP post

>>718848274
They grew up consuming "content creator" media where the majority of people do things purely for money. They don't understand the concept of doing something out of passion.

Looks gay you're gay for caring

'Membah when being a greedy sellout used to get you ostracized from any community

>>718840606
>Why would you even want to put this in your game?
Just for the sake of it, like modding L4D2 to replace the survivors and special infected with completely random characters, because it's funny to some people.
>Let alone pay for it?
Greed and entitlement, despite it being a Game & Watch reskin instead of a new separate fighter that's more expensive than Ultimate's fighters and Mii costumes, and especially for a price that's 67% of Balatro itself.

>>718841360
how did he think people would react?
like it's a big surprise people don't care beyond dropping a few insults when you paywall mods of all things.

>>718847275

why don't you tell that to the dude who made a mod based on copyrighted media lmao fuckin hypocrite

it's beyond parody at this point.

I don't think the slippery slope has ever once been proven to be a fallacy in practice. Quite the contrary.

You are assuming there's any thought process behind it. They just want to score an epic own, it's a typical snarky twitter remark that exists only to get attention to yourself and get likes. It's just cancerous social media culture sipping into real life.

>>718840945
Zoomers already blame Millennials for everything because they have perpetual little brother syndrome (why else do you think lil bro is used as an insult by them) even though basically everything they get mad at Millennials for falls squarely in the hands of Gen X and Baby Boomers while Millennials were too young to actually influence anything.

>>718849686
True, but it's still hilarious watching them defend wasting $10 on a recolor like it's some noble act of consumer empowerment. At least when boomers got scammed, it was by actual Nigerian princes, not some dude reskinning Mr. Game & Watch with cat ears.

>>718850269
Except modern writing in media, like gaming.

>>718840498 (OP)
I've seen this issue in another game I play. Everyone puts their mods behind a paywall. They're just coomer mods but it's still kinda dumb since the game already has plenty of coomer shit already.

A bit disheartening though that there are this many people defending the money grubbing piece of shit and say some limp wristed excuse like "ohhh but muh artist's fee-fees"

>>718851960
Equating a Smash Brothers mod, featuring another videogame character (that's just a glorified png replacement set) should just be the end of the convo, this isn't some mod-job that's too risque for Nexus or is it even a good 3D model made from scratch.

This is the same as crying that someone calls your (hypothetical person) Loot Box t-shirts gay and corporate.

>resell content form a 14,99$ indygame balatro game as smash melee mod for his own gain as 10$
paying for mods isn't even the biggest issue here

The smash modding community is a complete joke, the only good modders are the ones that keep to themselves. The worst ones are those that make modpacks. Been in that community for too long to know.

How are tendies okay with buying a mod for emulation?

>>718849686
dorothy with normal eyebrows is frightening

>>718851960
An obvious trend with the people defending it is they're 15-20 so their main experience with video games is seeing skins being sold to them for $20+
I don't know why the retard didn't do what mostly every other mod maker does and have a patreon used for updates on progress.
