        If youre modding, youre not really playing starfield. Youre using starfield as a game engine to play someone elses game.

        Which is fine, have fun where you find fun. But I dont think bethesda or starfield should get any of the credit for that fun.

        If I bought a car and needed to replace the wheels, the clutch, the radiator, and give it a full paint job redo, I wouldnt give any praise to the guy I bought the car from. Even if I loved the new post-mod vehicle

          If you’re taking this as a defense of Bethesda: You misunderstood.

          The dude I replied to said the ship has sailed on seeing new unique content. That simply isn’t true. It just won’t be coming from Bethesda until they release DLC (which you know they had planned from the get go as they always have).

            They could release DLC until they are blue in the face. My point was that a full priced AAA game from a company that a) has been making this kind of game for nearly two decades, and b) has been using the same same in-house game engine to do it, should be able to put together a hand crafted world for their 100+ hour game.

            I understand it is a massive undertaking, but that no reason sell shit.
