The decline of custom stories.

You seem like kind of an arrogant prick but I do agree with you

That was a first. Anyway, you misunderstand me if you think I'm an arrogant prick. I try to share my experiences in a realistic way. Maybe sometimes I do it harshly but the point remains the same. Some truths must be told and someone will always be hated for telling them.

I don't intend to criticize for the sake of doing it, but for the sake of changing something, and this world needs quite the change.

Also, I've seen many Let's PLay things around here. In my opinion, anyone that has a decent piece of work should never allow someone to make a let's play of it. It's publicity and might help your content to find itself across the web, but it just kills the spirit of your mod.

A good mod must be able to cause a very personal reaction in yourself, a very subjective feeling that will make you remember the mod, maybe even replay it or just get "that chill down the spine". As said, that's a very subjective reaction and the mod's concept itself must provide several interpretations, in bigger or smaller things, thus creating a very interesting experience where anyone can find at least a thing they can identify themselves with.

A let's play cuts all that. You're watching someone playing something their way, commenting their point of view and in most cases MAKING FUN of such valuable content.

Sometimes people's minds get covered by a dark cloud created by a bigger entity, maybe a community or even society. Then, they stop thinking as themselves and start trying to see things as other people do in such wrong ways that they reach a point in which they are simple copies of everyone else. Creativity is being lost, and we're getting too far away to ever recover it again.
