Sort of. They present a straw man about tournaments and other public events, and while that's a fair point, those can (and probably already do) have rules about it.

You should always have the option to use a mod in your home. If companies don't want to support running a game with mods, that should be the first thing support asks.

If we weren't talking about an inherently competitive multiplayer game, I'd agree.

You can still play single player if you choose.

But when you play MP, I completely understand then restricting mods.
