I was standing up for this guy recently, arguing that having a donation page is fine. However, this goes way beyond donations and feels more like a sale.

Eh, it's his code, his work. I believe he's within his rights to decide how he's compensated.

I personally think this method is a bad idea but then again I don't pay this game and don't even know what the mod does. Maybe it's the second coming or whatever and he knows his business more than I though. Either way, it's his right.

Not really. Modding is allowed, but as soon as you start making money over a game you don't own I expect Rocktar is gonna cease an desist him into oblivion. Yeah, it's his code... but without the game is useless. Donations are a thing, selling something you don't own the right to is another. Be aware, I don't want anything to do with that mod and I don't even know whst it is tbh
