i'm midway between the two
i think it's so fuckin cool what people have done with modding, and it's why if i'm ever unsatisfied with any game option/mechanic, i immediately search "____ mods", and am most of the time successful

do i want results from mods? well yeah, duh
but do i think (whether i'm interested in a particular mod or not) modding as a concept is fucking cool? hell ya

there's plenty of insanely popular skyrim mods i don't use because they don't cater to my playstyle, but i'm really happy they exist. i mean as a side example, i paint warhammer miniatures.

there was a huge row a few years ago about a new line of paints called "contrast paints", that the sole manufacturer of the warhammer models released themselves. the tagline of these paints was "one thick coat" (a semi-meme about having to thin your previously acrylic based paints). their value lied in how they formulated the darker pigments to settle in recesses and lighter/nonexistent pigment to at most, shade the highlights. on a simple tabletop job? it was literally miracle water. but your average "competitive" painter went to no ends complaining about how it was "cheating".

me personally? i fuckin hate em. not because of how they facilitate easy of use for less skilled painters, but because they leave a "coffee stain" on unsettled pigments. but i'm super fuckin happy that less-skilled painters have access to things they enjoy

the "bethesda games shouldnt be modded" ppl are only hurting themselves lol
and let them suffer tbh
