The modder in question for this case is not above placing DRM within his paid mods to prevent free distribution. So I’m skeptical of any system of monetization not immediately succumbing to malicious compliance.
Mods are by the community, for the community. If your mod has enough significance that you believe it is worth monetizing - create your own game with the endless amount of tools available with that hallmark feature. (Or actually talk to the devs to work out an official arrangement rather than being a hardass and witnessing the consequences of your arrogance)
Whoa now. Jumping straight to malware payloads is pretty extreme. Has he done such a thing before, or are you just pulling it out of your ass to support your argument?
Alright, after checking Polygon, GamesRadar, and IGN articles, there are mentions of DRM but not the malware payloads (I guess the original article I looked at might have conflated this guy with someone else). I’ll retract that part of the statement.
Why do people think luke ross is the same person as pure dark? I’ve seen this in other places too.
They are completely different people, they have completely different patreons, and luke ross doesn’t have time to pretend to be a whole different person on top of himself. Is it because both their mods include, in part, the acronym “dlss”? As far as I can tell that is literally the only possible link between them. And technically that’s even a stretch, because luke ross’s mod suite actually adds DL"S"SS, the extra S is for a version that works properly in stereo. Which no one and nothing else has.

It’s a bit of telephone, I got that segment from an article discussing the topic. Let me see if I can locate it.
