    Can i ask maybe an obvious set of questions:

    • Who would made this mod and why?
    • Who would download it, install it, and why?

      Not sure about Celeste but mods like this can be very useful when made for games like League of Legends.

        I know this sounds crazy, but this one dude made a whole operating system that closes League when it opens. It became very popular -for unrelated reasons- and now it’s used in most supercomputers in the world.

          it worked until riot required kernel level Anti-Cheat. for everyone in the same boat as me: after 6 months dota feels like league

            Dota feels like LoL in the same way a wagyu steak tastes like McDonald’s burger patty. (I played LoL some 16 years ago and switched to Dota 13 years ago)

              Dota has always felt incredibly clunky to my adhd ridden brain. Turn speed being a legitimate concern when picking a character feels insane to me

                In reality nobody really thinks about the turn speed (unless maybe pros). The skill range is big, so the only thing that really matters is that matchmaking places you with people of similar skill.

                  if you are coming from league, turn speed feels really bad. league has way more skill shots though.

                  after 2 years of dota, I also don’t think about it anymore but the first few months were rough

                    Yeah, naturally it takes getting used to. But overall I can’t imagine going back to LoL (even though I still miss Teemo and Nocturne after all this time, lol).

      I could see this happening on nexus mods if a mod creator was mad, replaced their mod in an “update” with this and without paying attention you update the mod when prompted by your mod manager

        I was thinking similar but it’s listed as a dependency on Nexus with a note in the mod instructions to not install it so that should someone not read the instructions they’ll have a broken game and be forced into reading the instructions

      I think it was made by a dude called Ultrakill. But there have been a ton of copy cats for a lot of games since this went viral.

      The mod was made as a joke specifically.
