You seem to get it. Also, for f*#@s sake people, paid mods will be a shitstorm of s#*!. Look at, for example, the google play marketplace for phone apps. Because google does a terrible job organizing, evaluating, or even checking to see if any app is what it claims to be, it is full of shitty apps. Probably 90% of the apps on the play store are essentially fraudulent, either stolen IP, invasive of your privacy, overpriced for what they actually deliver, etc. The few apps that ARE good, and worth paying more than $0.99 for, are rarely recognized by the user base and their publishers have to slash prices or make them free with ads (and f*#@ that noise). *There is no way Bethesda is going to do a better job than f*#@ing Google, either*. We have ALREADY SEEN from their experiment in Skyrim's paid mods, Bethesda is not willing or capable, or neither, of ensuring that paid mods are worthy of their customer's money. Even though it was an apparently important venture of their business, Bethesda utterly botched their attempt to have paid modding added to Skyrim. They *featured* mods made by content creators who had no idea what they were doing, and others who blatantly ripped off the work of fellow modders. In a perfect world, could some game be a good platform for paid mods? Maybe. I seriously doubt any video game company will ever have the combination of competency and honesty required to make paid mods which aren't an unfair cash grab that ruins their games. Bethesda certainly isn't that company and if they think their goodwill will survive another attempt at paid mods, they are even stupider than I thought.
