Yeah, no shit, that's not the point of the comparison though, goober.

I'm saying that if the games just totally sucked and couldn't be modded they wouldn't be popular. Being moddable is a good thing that developers should do. When you say you'd rather have a good game that's also moddable when discussing the comparison of bad games that are moddable versus bad games that aren't moddable it comes across silly. Like, yeah, obviously I was a good game that is moddable. I also want a million dollars. We're not just having a discussion about random things we want. I'm pointing out that the fact that the games are moddable is a very good thing about the games and those modding communities wouldn't exist if it was harder to make the mods.

Also, I'm not insulting you. That's why I used a silly word to try and help it sound more light hearted.
