They should re-add them but make the mod maker receive most of the money, rather than Valve and the game creator.

It should be like 95% of the money goes to the mod creator, other 5% towards the game creator.

you shouldn't be able to profit off of someone else's game to begin with

There's a difference between "profiting off of someone else's game" and "making a mod for said game that people like and profiting off of that."

profiting off someone's game = having done nothing

profiting off a mod you made = actual effort was put in and the profit was deserved

i never said profiting off someone else's game by doing absolutely nothing
by making a mod using someone else's game, you're using everything they already worked on

afaic modding is pretty much you changing someone's product so that you can have more fun with it; it's a miracle anyone would agree to letting you profit off of that without at LEAST you giving them 75% of the profits

Yeah 75% actually sounds more reasonable.

i take what i said back
letting the devs only take 75% would be a miracle by itself

Yeesh, that was a fast reversal. Guess the backlash was just that bad.

If modders made 1% from all the mods that were sold and someone priced their mod at 1 dollar, they would be a millionare when they sold 100,000,000,000 mods.

I can come up with huge numbers too to offset a tiny percentage.

@zang

the fact you're comparing what i said to a hypothetical scenario in which you sell freaking 100,000,000,000 mods by itself makes it not really a good point
