    I was waiting for it. There was zero chance Todd Howard didn’t try this again.

    This is why you don’t buy Bethesda games. Half finished and now they want to profit from modding efforts like a new stream of microtransactions.

      I want paid mods. I’ve got no problem with non-paid mods existing too, but I’d like to have the opportunity to pay to accelerate the rate of content creation.

      I’ve got no problem with people who don’t want to buy them, but I think that those people shouldn’t take issue with people who do want them.

        So donate to the modders. It’s not a hard concept.

        Fuck Todd for wanting to profit off of them.

          Nothing wrong with donating to modders under the current model.

          People who don’t want paid mods can have what they want under the current system just fine. Just don’t buy mods.

          However, not having paid mods means that…people who do want them can’t have paid mods.

            No, it means people that want paid mods can just donate, and people that don’t want them aren’t excluded.

              That’s just saying “I don’t want paid mods to exist if I don’t want to buy them myself”.

            Its microtransactions in a single player offline game. Most of which isnt made bgs, but made by others, and bgs just takes a cut.

        The problem is that Bethesda wants to take a cut. I have no problem paying a modder for their hard work, but Bethesda shouldn’t be getting anything.
