SHV will be alright. Just like the others.
Completely agree. People just take mods for granted. The golden rule about mods is that you'll never be playing a 100% COMPLETE game. In a way I hate mods because I can't just install the game and play as the devs wanted me to play it. Adding mods feels like "work" rather than "fun".

Then there's people who put in mods just because they're out there. "Hey guys, I've just bought SH3, what mods should I use?". Then there are others that say "I love OLC's interface but can I have the Notepad back?". And then of course there are those that never read the readme files and ask things like "I love OM! Greatest thing ever. I've just sunk the Yamato with my Gato class... yeeeey. But I have a small problem. All the voices are in german. How can I change them back?".

Modders don't FIX the game, that's the dev's problem. Modders just customize the game to fit their game style. And as it happens, they also post them here for others that want to play in the same way.

We've had it easy with Supermods. Well now you have to watch them grow. Now you have to play vanilla for a while and see how it is. If you'll say "The game sucks, I'll delete it for now and wait for mods to come out" let me ask you one question: "What if everybody else says the same thing?". Modders are not here to help Ubi's sales. They just want to play the game they bought.
