I'm newish to modding games. I have been on a console my whole life and PC gaming is still relatively new to me. I've been modding a few games lately like Mass Effect and Baldurs Gate 3... It's like a whole ass research assignment to figure out how to load mods. Each one different with different rules. I decided to not even bother with a significant number of mods because they just seemed mind numbingly confusing to set up.

I'm not complaining, I'm just wondering if I'm missing some trick or something.

Edit: I would like to thank everyone who answered. It appears that, nah. I'm not missing something. I am just a dummy. Probably just gonna take a while to get used to for me. But thank you very much <3

This just reminds me of the mod situation for early versions of Minecraft. These days it's as simple as pressing a button and dropping your mods into a folder, but back then it was a case of directly modifying the main Java file, removing specific bits, adding specific bits in specific places... not smooth at all
