I can’t decide whether Bethesda are stupid or just in denial. It had to have occurred to them at some point that their games are only good because of the modding community ffs, prioritise the damn modding tools
While I think it makes some business sense to release the modding tools between 6 months to a year after (when their devs aren’t working on the game anymore so they can actually develop the tools and strip it of any proprietary software) I do wonder sometimes how things would change if they just delayed the game until the modding tools were ready.
They’re actually stupid in this case.
There was a big post by Nexus Mods about how effed up the Creation Engine is now, and how its unsurprising Bethsoft has been unable to release modding tools for the game because it’s so broken.
