I’ve been daydreaming about creating libre mods for proprietary video games that I’ve played as a kid and I would like to hear opinions on whether or not that is something worth pursuing. On one hand, a libre mod might distract from future libre game alternatives. On the other hand, it provides resources to potential libre alternatives and makes people more aware of libre culture. I would love to hear what people here have to say about this.

I was thinking more about the large scale mods for games like Super Mario 64 but your point still stands. Even in my ideal scenario, it’s unlikely that modders would transfer over unless the company that made the game clamped down on all modding activity; at that point, I wouldn’t even be able to make libre mods.
