Does modding ruin the fear of the game?

[Krymtel]

For me, unfortunately, it sort of does. In my case, I had to learn many aspects of the HPL2 engine to familiarize myself with it and, in the process, I sort of learned the mechanics of the game. The only thing that really bothers me is that, if I'm in the mood to mod something, I can't fully enjoy any custom story/conversion because I'm always wondering "how did they manage to do that?" or "how could I improve on that?". Don't worry though, if this happens to you, you will still be scared shitless when you play the game .
