Publisher NetEase Games has finally banned custom skin mods in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel Rivals, and one developer with credits on "multiple live service games" has explained why this happens to so ꩲmany multiplaꦓyer hits.

These included a few anime skins and things like the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:banned Don🌊ald Trump and Joe Biden ones that caused a hullabaloo last week, among others.

"Some mods can make an enemy easier to see... or make you harder to see" - even in a game like Marvel Rivals, where custom skins will only show up for the player using them, making yourself invisible would theoretically give you a better field of view than your opponents.Other reasons might include server strain since mods aren't "optimized" and can oft🐽en do "some weird s***" the developers weren't prepared for, NSFW mods or political mods could cause damage to the brand, and legal stuff since "lots of mods infringe on copyrighted designs or assets." There's also the worry that modders might make custom skins that the developers were pla💯nning to add in a future battle pass or store update, and "studios ain't about to let you mess with their income."
