Happy bday , love you son <| sep |> I ' d say go in Vanilla , until you learned all the basics yourself or get bored of it . That said , it should be you to decide wether you want mods or not , there is no must have mod to play this game just QoL Mods and Content Mods . I ' m a strict vanilla player and so far I never felt the need for a mod even though the micromanaging can get quite annoying from time to time . <| sep |> If it was like a hundred bucks , I might see if Century wouldn ' t burn me a fourth time , but beyond that , fuck those people . And if you saw positive reviews of the C 308 , you might do very well to reconsider those sources . The C 308 is legendarily bad . <| sep |> What single player shooters do you enjoy and why ? As is , it sounds like you don ' t like any , which isn ' t a criticism on the game but a reflection of your tastes .
