"They're a perfect marriage of developer work and player passion. If a developer can find the strength to let go of the design a little and give some control to the player than the world will be a better place. After all, aren't we really say that we're in love with you. :-))"

"So so. You can do a lot to make a map/killer new item/great combo routine. You can also overkill by putting all the weapons in one place / making the item godly for no reason / insta-kill. It's hard to get the right balance when a player decides to take matters into their own hands, but it's awesome when a gem comes out of the pile of coal."

Laniara said 4 days ago:

"They can be the entire base for the success of a game, Neverwinter Nights for example, or more recently second life. I believe allowing players to express their creativity is a good thing, but it can also taint an everionment when people use that freedom to be purpously disruptive to the theme of the game in question.

CPUFreak91 said 8 days ago:

"I think anything that adds to the gaming experience is a good thing, add-ons and mods make things more personal and in my opinion, a lot more fun."

"I can't live without them. That form of customizability in the interface just can't be replaced by something built in by the game devs."

PraxisPersephone said 10 days ago:

"There needs to be some quality control, and a central repository for it all. Half the good stuff dies because a bad website or something stupid, and its difficult to find anything good. A universally accepted installation and uninstallation method would also be great."
