Ultimately, it was a success, Bethesda had to back down from a practice that no one wanted to have, but that didn't stop them from trying to re-brand it to they could try to take a piece of that modding pie.Įnter 2017, and at E3 they announced the 'Creation Club' an idea where credits can be purchased to buy mods that can only be found in the creation club's store.
The very concept of a company trying to monetize patches for broken and buggy games, which Bethesda is famous for as well as trying to make anything that could be made for free by passionate fans set the community on fire to tell them no. Many remember that back in 2015, Bethesda tried to make paid mods, and everyone spoke out against them because of how bad an idea it was. You'll excuse my profanity I hope, but I'm seriously pissed and it's time someone called Bethesda out for the crap company they are.
