I had fun with it. I put in about a hundred hours.

It's fine. It's not complete crap and had tons of potential. It missed the mark on a few things for sure.

These constant aggressive comments from the Dev team though... That I'm not a fan of.

My biggest complaint is how they absolutely murdered the modding scene for the sake of greed... They wanted their cut of a thing they had NO input in so they forced their way in to have input and in the process ruined modding for those that were good at it....

Seeing how amazing Skyrim was with mods gave me so much hope for what this game could become and now I'm just sickened by what they did... So much potential gone. Now you'll have to pick between what 4 mods you want as you'll have to spend $5+ for each one... Yeah I'm not spending $100+ just to make your game fun for you while also paying you...

Free mods arent gonna disappear no matter what bethesda does on their end. Just ignore the paid shit just like we always have

It's the changes they made to the way you mod in order to sell mods that screwed with how modding works supposedly. Apparently a few of the good modders have already said "fuck this garbage" and bailed. That coupled with starfields flop leaves less people interested in fighting the system to get mods to work anyway :(

But the modding tools are not even out so not sure how sanely those complains are...
