I am somewhat uncomfortable with the idea of modding for achievements, given the somewhat competitive nature of achivements. I don't really care if, for example, someone uses a mod to recover a "lost in limbo" item that was hard earned and is necessary for further progress, or if you fix one of the numerous bugs with a mod, but modding to speed things up or to make an achievement attainable when otherwise one is unable to is more or less cheating. In my list, whenever I used a mod to get a specific achievement, I said so, and there are very very few of them.

I agree that achievement means we have to achieve something, technically the game is repeating every animations until the action period finishes and then we feel like we've been through some experience and glad to get a reward/progress. Sure when we have spare time we would enjoy everything (normal gameplay) sentimental, emotional and such. Let's say instead of waiting while putting the game in ultra speed I use the time to create a mod - a very powerful element of the game and officially supported by the system. In real life when you create something with your very own hand and then you could see how useful it is I would say that's really satisfying. Instead of collecting stress and emotional pressure I fight it with a hand made catalyst, a game should be fun and we try to find a better solution because we're human (and don't forget we have every right to make our own game delightful) :)
