I know most of the Bethesda RPGs have massive mod support, and there's games like Minecraft that have more mods than anyone can imagine. I would consider those games pretty playable in their vanilla states. Would you say there are any games that were "saved" by modding? Or that are still kept alive by thriving modding communities? What are some of your favorite mods?

X Com2 has amazing mods. Most of the content available for Battletech is from mods by like 2 orders of magnitude.

I won't even play beat saber without the mods. Half Life Alex has full games released in the engine as mods too!

Oh yes Beat Saber absolutely needs mods, my favorite custom songs won't even work without them. It just keeps fricking breaking every time Beat Saber updates and I can't play any good songs anymore.

At least a downgrade is relatively easy. On a related note I'm looking forward to pistol whips official mod support to drop this summer. I hope it brings a lot of new maps!
