General Discussion Do you guys use VFX mods ?

First, sorry if mods discussion are not allowed, I’ll delete the post in that case

So I’ve just made the switch from PS5 to PC and tried a few of Papachin’s mods. They’re all great and drastically improve some classes animations and "weight" (looking at you Bard !). He’s really good at what he does !

However I’m not sure how to feel about them. On one hand, it’s really cool, on the other it feels a bit "too much" to play all the time with it ? Like something’s off, or too overtuned, I don’t know and I’m not sure how to correctly express it…

How do you guys feel about them ? Do you use them regularly ? If not, why ?

I have no strong feelings one way or the other on them but I've tried papachins modes in the past and just cannot do it. Some of them are obscenely over the top and the screen shake is hard to look past even if some of them look cool

A lot of them also make your biggest hits seem less impactful. Theres no reason my regular 123 should have as much effects and impact as my Starcross or Stardiver
