There are some game mods that use copyrighted material that I wanted to get. I see a lot of people criticizing the modders and I understand the legality issue but it is difficult for me to see a moral issue. These mods do not harm the game makers in the way piracy usually does and in fact they might even encourage the sale of the original game. Some of them also take tons of work to make. I have seen places with a lot of harsh criticism for modders who do this and although I understand the point in regard to legality, morally speaking this seems totally different than standard piracy or disturbing the game itself. I am not excusing these mods or anything, I just want to know opinions because I was considering paying for a couple that looked like a lot of work but am not sure if that is "wrong" in a moral sense or how I should feel about it.
