You don't get it, they are price anchoring the mod, such that the user created mod's price is sufficiently high. If they release expensive creation at a set price, user's mod comparatively look competitive. They win either way, they get significant cut from the sales. Also creating dlc takes time and has various phases. First you get the idea approved, then design the progression, then finally build it with final asset. Artist can't do anything until the final phases. Having them occupied during those early phases is good resourced management.

There must be multiple endings to The Vulture because I never encountered the sister. Someone in the comments here said they fought him and his crew at HopeTech and I actually fought him at Paradiso after he and his crew ambushed me in the hotel
@@7BitBrian To be fair the game does not give any indication that the quest can be resolved multiple ways. Most of us didn’t know either. Every time I’ve seen someone play through this quest and discuss it, they had my ending. The creation itself also didn’t talk about how many endings there are.
Honestly, I want it to come with the DLC. Mainly because I want them to take their time and make sure it works properly. Plus the fall isn’t that far away. For some reason this summer is flying by really fast.
@@Steel-101 I totally get that but at the same time I'm annoyed that they talk about the scale of the game, and they didn't think we are increasing the scale of the game which is going to be different from our other games and we're still gonna have the same walking system. If it comes out with shattered space I'm hoping that we have some proper docking or parking Habs.
@@thelvadam5113 Yeah, I’ve been wondering how they’re going to place the vehicle on the planet. Is it going to be inside the ship similar to the Normandy and Mako, or is there going to be a space parking garage? Also, yeah, I get it sometimes walking around gets a bit dull(honestly, I just use the Jetpack) but what can I tell ya, you just have to be patient. Again, I don’t want them to rush this. There’s definitely gonna be some bugs with this, but I want them to make sure we have a small amount of bugs.
Land vehicles will be released in mid to late July, not a certainty but highly probable. Bethesda wants to keep the Starfield momentum moving and the best way to do that is a major content update followed by DLC.
Late July is probable, give Starfield a huge update with content and polish, then another huge update just prior to or alongside Shattered Space at the start of December. Shattered Space should probably be viewed as a Phantom Liberty/Blood and Wine type expansion, if it is pulled off correctly@@KingDerek58
Imo the biggest addition in the new update was the Creation Kit. It didn't take long for modders to make qol mods that greatly improve parts of the game, like the one that adds a cooldown to POIs in proc gen, so you stop encountering the same 3 outposts and cryo labs over and over.
@@carlosschlyter when they first said "NASA Punk" even before I saw it, my first thought was "That couldn't possibly be less interesting and bland than it looks in my head" and sure enough, they outdid themselves.
Yeah the interview kinda put the final nail in the coffin for me, with him talking about how he wants his games to act as platforms for more content. I just want fully finished and playable games, not one game releasing in a conpletely broken state and rehabilitating its image over five years only to turn into a new content mill that you probably have to pay for each piece over the span of a decade.
Matty, I left a negative comment on one of your videos about Todd, but since he reads the comments he came across mine and hired hitmen to take me out. I need your help reaching out to him. This is partly your fault as well by allowing him into your community.
its abit weird to that the tracker faction doesn’t even know your in the trackers on neon where you talk to the tracker guy from the original bit where he tells you can go to the mission boreds
I have the adoring fan held hostage until they make the ranger badge into an apparel that can be equipped and shown over our outfits… the ball is in your court now Bethesda
Some constructive criticism: I think you were a bit halfway with the information in some points: The Vulture quest apparently has at least 3 different endings that lead you to different places. It's still short regardless of the ending but worth mentioning. Achievements friendly tag is only available for the minority of the mods that were made by Bethesda, which worked the same way as Fallout 4 and Skyrim. Every other mod disables them, and while Bethesda indicated that an option will be available for verified creator mods, none of them have it yet. The unvoiced content you mention for Skyrim in the creation club were creations not made by Bethesda, unlike the vulture quest that was. There are voiced quest mods for Skyrim and Fallout 4, so not a change really.
Wait minute! Wait a gosh darned minute!! When I did the Vulture quest, I ended up fighting him on top of the Hopetech building! There was no hostage situation, there was no farm, I walked into an ambush. Did... did Bethesda actually do multiple endings right?
I’m happy with BGS adding their own Creations / Mods - as long as they are priced appropriately. However, I also think they should first add a lot more to the game for free to build goodwill. We can’t even swim underwater to scan the sea creatures yet, for example.
Just an FYI on that Vulture mod, apparently there are multiple endings to it, short though it is. The ending Matty showed is the third different one I have seen so far. When I played through it, I ended at Hope Tech and never saw anything about a sister, saw another video play through where it ended in Paradisio. Don't know if they are choice based or just randomly chosen when you start the quest. Used my free credits for it too.
Had a different ending too. I ended up at Paradiso... had to investigate a hotel room. He took shots at my through the window from a snipers nest on the cliff near the building.
I gotta say I wasn’t enjoying Starfield at first but now I’m THOROUGHLY enjoying my experience! I’m glad because the whole 1000 planet thing was overwhelming but taking it one step at a time helps
Starfield needs more big, explorable, handrafted maps / planets, where you can walk for hours without a loadingscreen & without repetition (F4 survival mode has no fast travel => traversal over such a huge map is exciting & immersive.., its missing in Starfield)
I had a totally different ending for the Vulture. It did not end on a farm, nor Paradiso. I won't say how for spoilers sake, but it was more interesting than that.
starfield is Mid and thats being nice. sucks because i think a lot of us weren't really expecting big innovations - just a familiar quality would have been great. but its a huge drop off from fo4 & skyrim
@caiooca5793 Nobody asked for creation club, gamers, or modders they only set it up so they can make money off it we all can see it, we want to support the modders but the CC supports BGS more than the modders themselves. If they really care, let ALL the money go to the modders. You know the ppl that are the ones making the mods. They have been trying to do this bs for years. Why do you think they kept on re-releasing sykrim it always broke the mods, but you know what mods were ready day one ah yes, the creation mods.
@@Deboo-oz2rb Don't be so short sighted, I had over 3000 hrs modding before I ever received ANY donation. Mods are capped cause only people willing to spend their time and money will do them. I would completely stop making mods as I need money and my time is not infinite, but now I can make mods AND make some money. So yes, modders asked for this, and not a small amount of them. And yes players asked for this, at least those who can see beyond their limited experiences.
Is that replacer really necessary, since bodies are already much more fleshed out over Skyrim and Fallout 4. People can probably just get away with stapling on a nipple texture on the base body and be done with it.
Serious question: Has anyone had issues with the dialogue audio completely muting after any mods? I'm on Series X and the dialog audio is gone, guns still have audio, but jet pack and walking audio cut in and out. I am new to mods and have no idea how this happened or what to do about it.
Hi I had the same issue. What I do to get the audio back is exit game back to main menu, then go into creations and open the menu and disable all mods then leave creations and then leave the game completely back to xbox home and then reload game and this sorts it out every time for me.
There is actually three different ending locations..one going to his hotel is trackers..one being kidnapping sister.. crimson fleet..one stopping a assassination..hacking for more info..not saying it makes it better.. just noticed most people reviewing the vultcher mod acts like its only got a single path..
I don’t think people are that upset about pricing itself, it’s that BGS has content that is also priced high. For those it’s not paid mods it’s micro-transactions that are being added under the title of paid mods, the only thing these specific ones are supporting is BGS.
It’s not the cost of primers, it’s the low amount of primers available in the shop. I would have rather had it cost a lot of resources to encourage setting bases up.
Would be cool if Starfield had in game tv shows like in GTA 5. Would also LOVE radio stations! (funny talk show hosts & varied music). Maybe different radio stations for each major solar system!
I already paid over 100 dollars for this game. I am not keen to pay even more. I actually stopped playing it since I have no idea what Bethesda are doing with it and there's not much point finishing it if the game isn't finished.
Same. The game's poor writing and soulless characters made it my least played Bethesda game. Not sure they'll ever add enough to bring me back, so it'll likely remain un-installed for years.
@@joe19912 How many hours did you put in? I enjoyed when I did play for the most part. Was around 30 hours or so and seen that weird psychedelic rings thing twice lol.
I have a similar-ish experience. The most expensive game I've ever bought at launch, and I abandoned it after a few months. It's by far the worst BGS experience I've ever had, given even with games that pissed me off (Oblivion, for one), I still played the hell out of them for months. To be fair, my MQ completely broke. I waited several months for a fix, but evidently it's a baked-in break that cannot be fixed. I'd put over 80hrs into my playthrough, I think, so I just had no will to start over. So I waited for mods, which are the only real hope for this game. *Now* I'm waiting for mods to really kick into gear... Could be a year or two, frankly. It depends what I see being created. So yeah, I've been playing their games since Morrowind (still their best... ), and SF has been a real letdown. And I wasn't even caught up in the hype, as I've known their shortcomings since Oblivion. SF has moments of magic, but I don't think vanilla is worth wasting time on. I trust the community more than BGS (paid-mods might corrode even that trust, unfortunately).
My original play through saves are now unplayable after the latest update. (This version is obsolete 0 as the current version is 27)… BGS has not resolved the issue and has been very slow to responding. It’s infuriating after I had been looking forward to getting these new updates.
Okay I'm a full time Starfield hater by now but I gotta agree that the segway to that sponsor was Linus Tech Tips levels of ingenious. Good one, Matty 😂
New to mods and such. So I'm curious about the one you or two you have to pay for by the company. Is just like all mods, and if I buy it, my achievements won't work, or since its from them and not the community, it will still have my achievements work? Thanks guys
The item will specifically be labelled 'achievement friendly', or words to that effect, so you'll know when browsing everything. I think thus far, the microtransactions - aka BGS Creations (I hate that name... ) - are all achievement friendly. Most mods won't be.
If they charged 3$ for the missions would that make you feel better cause they gave a good free chunk and then charged 7 for individual missions seems like fair trade
I don't like only giving 25% to the creator. If the mod is worth it, I'll pay, but really, creations are designed for Xbox users since they are in a closed ecosystem. That's what most pc centric users don't understand, and no one talks about.
But it makes sense why pc players are so eager for devs to cater to their desires. They have already spent so much money on building their pcs, that they are determined to get their money's worth.
PC players are catered to. We get access to games that are otherwise in enclosed ecosystems. We can play Helldivers 2 (PS console exclusive), Starfield (Xbox exclusive) and LOTS of games that are PC only. Also, mods for games that aren't available on home consoles.
@@ferrite1707 exactly. Pc players that complain about ui that is designed for universality, are always complaining about ui not being designed for exclusive pc use.
Single player games should not have overpriced content drip fed to its customer base. If I wanted a “live service game” I wouldn’t fucking play a Bethesda game. Every fucking game nowadays I see that has so much potential gets reduced to either mediocrity or shit when the “service model” is implemented where it just doesn’t belong. Really like a lot about Starfeild but this is such a new low and there’s NO way Bethesda themselves aren’t aware of this. It’s a practice that rewards publishers to put out worse games than what they are fully capable of and it’s nuts.
I think the rationale was increase the length of the quests that only exist to get you a new gun. I'm not saying it worked, but I think that's what Todd was saying in the interview.
For me The Vulture quest i didnt see what you showed ,i went to the ambush place and fought them right away. Also for the Astra vendor i just save and reload because some times i trade in 3 and get a crappy 1 or 2 . So i quicksave and reload. I use the Sniper from that quest all the time now. I am glad our queen Elianora gets to live from her great mods. ❤
Elden Ring expansion costs 40USD Blood and Wine expansion costed 20USD Phantom Liberty expansion costed 30USD ...All those will get you EASLY over 30h of game time. Bethesda is charging 7USD for 15min.... Just... Let that sink in. As for mods? There's no place for payed mods. That's it. If I want to I'll gladly support modder via patreon or paypal (and I do). But payed mods in games? Fuck that.
There needs to be a way to leave reviews and ask questions about the mods on the Creation Club. Like when something doesn't work, or doesn't match the description/images shown for the mod. Like there's a mod that adds hairstyles and beards, but when you install that, it removes the 5 o'clock shadow and shaved head textures. Would be nice if people could leave a review or a question, to figure out if that was intended or just not working properly.

There must be multiple endings to The Vulture because I never encountered the sister. Someone in the comments here said they fought him and his crew at HopeTech and I actually fought him at Paradiso after he and his crew ambushed me in the hotel
Yeah I had hopetech
I fought him at Porrina. If you’re crimson fleet, you have the option to track down his sister.
@@ryanmsalisbury5499 Oh cool, thanks for letting me know!
There are like 8 possible endings and even a side quest or two in it. But he didn't cover any of that.
@@7BitBrian To be fair the game does not give any indication that the quest can be resolved multiple ways. Most of us didn’t know either. Every time I’ve seen someone play through this quest and discuss it, they had my ending. The creation itself also didn’t talk about how many endings there are.
I'm really hoping the land vehicles aren't coming out with shattered space. I want these vehicles within like the next month please but I doubt it
Honestly, I want it to come with the DLC. Mainly because I want them to take their time and make sure it works properly. Plus the fall isn’t that far away. For some reason this summer is flying by really fast.
@@Steel-101 I totally get that but at the same time I'm annoyed that they talk about the scale of the game, and they didn't think we are increasing the scale of the game which is going to be different from our other games and we're still gonna have the same walking system. If it comes out with shattered space I'm hoping that we have some proper docking or parking Habs.
@@thelvadam5113 Yeah, I’ve been wondering how they’re going to place the vehicle on the planet. Is it going to be inside the ship similar to the Normandy and Mako, or is there going to be a space parking garage? Also, yeah, I get it sometimes walking around gets a bit dull(honestly, I just use the Jetpack) but what can I tell ya, you just have to be patient. Again, I don’t want them to rush this. There’s definitely gonna be some bugs with this, but I want them to make sure we have a small amount of bugs.
Land vehicles will be released in mid to late July, not a certainty but highly probable. Bethesda wants to keep the Starfield momentum moving and the best way to do that is a major content update followed by DLC.
Late July is probable, give Starfield a huge update with content and polish, then another huge update just prior to or alongside Shattered Space at the start of December.
Shattered Space should probably be viewed as a Phantom Liberty/Blood and Wine type expansion, if it is pulled off correctly@@KingDerek58
Imo the biggest addition in the new update was the Creation Kit. It didn't take long for modders to make qol mods that greatly improve parts of the game, like the one that adds a cooldown to POIs in proc gen, so you stop encountering the same 3 outposts and cryo labs over and over.
What's that mods name?
Do you know the name?
The mod is called "POI Cooldown - Fewer repeated POIs BETA"
give us the mod name please
I really wish starfield had gone exotic with the starship designs. 50's - 80's scifi. I mostly just wanted my own Firefly class vessel.
Unique uniques were for sure necessary. Liike maybe only one "laser sword" you could find but theres like only few weapons with a new skin
Then build it. Its doable. A pain in the arse, but doable.
Honestly the design they went with for this game the THE most boring SciFi design you could possibly do
@@spencercorpuz yeah, their so called "NASA punk" is really boring, they should have gone with a more original style for sure.
@@carlosschlyter when they first said "NASA Punk" even before I saw it, my first thought was "That couldn't possibly be less interesting and bland than it looks in my head" and sure enough, they outdid themselves.
Didn’t Todd say you were really paying for the weapon and armor in the Vulture quest line and they decided to kind of wrap it up in a quest?
If Skyrim sold as a bunch of Creations, it would cost around $2,000. Bethesda wants that with Starfield.
Yeah the interview kinda put the final nail in the coffin for me, with him talking about how he wants his games to act as platforms for more content. I just want fully finished and playable games, not one game releasing in a conpletely broken state and rehabilitating its image over five years only to turn into a new content mill that you probably have to pay for each piece over the span of a decade.
Tell me your a shill for Bethesda without telling me your a shill.
Thats not how my Vulture quest went. Never met his sister or went to a farm. Got more information and got ambushed at a different location
Leads you to a farm? What happened to leads you to Hopetech where you are ambushed?
Or Paradiso when not going to Hopetech. 😅
Matty, I left a negative comment on one of your videos about Todd, but since he reads the comments he came across mine and hired hitmen to take me out. I need your help reaching out to him. This is partly your fault as well by allowing him into your community.
Mark your location on his map
You're done when you cross Godd Howard himself
You know there actually are real victims who were murdered in successful hits, so this joke comment is in extremely poor taste!
Matty i got you bro. Let me explain the rationale of locking a quest behind a paywall ok? Ok here it comes: We want money.
Mind blown 🤯
🤯 🤯 🤯
Update broke the Crimson Fleet quest line. Can’t be completed now. They have an article up acknowledging the issue.
Well, I did just that quest line and it works perfectly fine from start to finish - even with mods. So this can't be true
I will say, the quest has multiple ways to complete it. i never met his sister, and my quest ended on paradiso. He ambushed me in a hotel room
Thank you so much for mentioning this cause mine ended the same way and I had no idea what Matty was talking about when he mentioned the sister
If you accept this pay as you go model other companies will start doing it
& don't forget to pre-order Fallout 5 and Elder Scrolls 6 so standards are lowered even further guys
its abit weird to that the tracker faction doesn’t even know your in the trackers on neon where you talk to the tracker guy from the original bit where he tells you can go to the mission boreds
I have the adoring fan held hostage until they make the ranger badge into an apparel that can be equipped and shown over our outfits… the ball is in your court now Bethesda
Some constructive criticism:
I think you were a bit halfway with the information in some points:
The Vulture quest apparently has at least 3 different endings that lead you to different places. It's still short regardless of the ending but worth mentioning.
Achievements friendly tag is only available for the minority of the mods that were made by Bethesda, which worked the same way as Fallout 4 and Skyrim. Every other mod disables them, and while Bethesda indicated that an option will be available for verified creator mods, none of them have it yet.
The unvoiced content you mention for Skyrim in the creation club were creations not made by Bethesda, unlike the vulture quest that was. There are voiced quest mods for Skyrim and Fallout 4, so not a change really.
The mod that makes your ship inventory weightless is a game changer in the best way.
Bethesda dropped the ball with starfield.
This is one of the reasons why your interview with Todd Howard can be summed up as one of the industries best salesman's pitch again
In terms of corporate speak, he was pretty honest, considering
No surprise. Howard was always the most effective as a salesman than anything else. He honestly puts Molyneux to shame.
@@TheCybercocoat least Tood Howard didn’t try to sell sentient AI in 2010, nobody does it better than Peter😂
Exactly, Matty's interview was weak sycophantism
Hey Matty my Vulture quest ended completely differently. I tracked him to hopetown and I had a fight with him and his crew on the roof of Hope tech.
Really? He ambushed me in Paradiso and that’s where mine ended
Yep. I ended up with a different ending which lead me to Paradiso.
Just add more to the planets and maybe add a loading screen that looks like your actually flying into the planet lol
Ubisoft did that with Star Wars, Starfield loading screen loads faster. Alot faster
Wait minute! Wait a gosh darned minute!! When I did the Vulture quest, I ended up fighting him on top of the Hopetech building! There was no hostage situation, there was no farm, I walked into an ambush. Did... did Bethesda actually do multiple endings right?
I'm done with starfield, it's nothing but a load screen simulation, and I have absolutely no hope for elder scrolls and fallout going forward.
I’m happy with BGS adding their own Creations / Mods - as long as they are priced appropriately. However, I also think they should first add a lot more to the game for free to build goodwill. We can’t even swim underwater to scan the sea creatures yet, for example.
I didn’t get that ending. I didn’t know it had multiple endings
My vulture quest went to paridisso after the cave and I had mercs bust in the apartment and vulture was shooting out the windows
Just an FYI on that Vulture mod, apparently there are multiple endings to it, short though it is. The ending Matty showed is the third different one I have seen so far. When I played through it, I ended at Hope Tech and never saw anything about a sister, saw another video play through where it ended in Paradisio. Don't know if they are choice based or just randomly chosen when you start the quest. Used my free credits for it too.
Had a different ending too. I ended up at Paradiso... had to investigate a hotel room. He took shots at my through the window from a snipers nest on the cliff near the building.
Mine ended in hometown on the roof of Hopetech
Same. I got the Paradiso ending. I then found out there were other endings from discord.
I gotta say I wasn’t enjoying Starfield at first but now I’m THOROUGHLY enjoying my experience! I’m glad because the whole 1000 planet thing was overwhelming but taking it one step at a time helps
I've literally been following you since I was a kid I used to watch your New Vegas tutorials. Glad your still around bro especially now that I'm 26
The mattress plug was fuckin brilliant
Starfield needs more big, explorable, handrafted maps / planets, where you can walk for hours without a loadingscreen & without repetition (F4 survival mode has no fast travel => traversal over such a huge map is exciting & immersive.., its missing in Starfield)
I had a totally different ending for the Vulture. It did not end on a farm, nor Paradiso.
I won't say how for spoilers sake, but it was more interesting than that.
Starts around 2:00
😂 That may have been one of the most smooth ad transitions I've ever seen
That's not how my quest went? Both times I played, two different saves two different ways it went down
"todd said" lmfao
We need more access to achievement friendly mods!! Only BGS mods have that tag
Just need a mod that enables achievements with mods like we've had before.
I'm too busy with Fo4 to even look at Starsnooze. And after I'm done with Fo4, it's on to Elden Ring.
starfield is Mid and thats being nice. sucks because i think a lot of us weren't really expecting big innovations - just a familiar quality would have been great. but its a huge drop off from fo4 & skyrim
Said it perfectly
💯
Why don't BGS let the modders get the full cut of the money for the mods if they want to support them. I wonder why?
They have costs too, and although I think the split should be bigger, I'm no accountant, and it is best for me to earn something than nothing.
@caiooca5793 Nobody asked for creation club, gamers, or modders they only set it up so they can make money off it we all can see it, we want to support the modders but the CC supports BGS more than the modders themselves. If they really care, let ALL the money go to the modders. You know the ppl that are the ones making the mods. They have been trying to do this bs for years. Why do you think they kept on re-releasing sykrim it always broke the mods, but you know what mods were ready day one ah yes, the creation mods.
@@Deboo-oz2rb Don't be so short sighted, I had over 3000 hrs modding before I ever received ANY donation.
Mods are capped cause only people willing to spend their time and money will do them.
I would completely stop making mods as I need money and my time is not infinite, but now I can make mods AND make some money.
So yes, modders asked for this, and not a small amount of them. And yes players asked for this, at least those who can see beyond their limited experiences.
@@Deboo-oz2rbI asked for it

This is all a massive end-around for Zenimax avoiding paying people healthcare.
CBBE waiting room
Hmm yes that will determine how strong the modding community will be in the long run for this game. How quickly someone can release CBBE.
Is that replacer really necessary, since bodies are already much more fleshed out over Skyrim and Fallout 4. People can probably just get away with stapling on a nipple texture on the base body and be done with it.
@@FeiFongWang Yes. It's absolutely necessary. Not only is it necessary but it should be achievement friendly. Don't shit on this parade.
@@shawnr782 Hey I'm as much of a Skycoomer as the next guy, I'm just looking at things from a logical point of view.
Main reason why I haven't played the game yet
Serious question: Has anyone had issues with the dialogue audio completely muting after any mods? I'm on Series X and the dialog audio is gone, guns still have audio, but jet pack and walking audio cut in and out. I am new to mods and have no idea how this happened or what to do about it.
Hi I had the same issue.
What I do to get the audio back is exit game back to main menu, then go into creations and open the menu and disable all mods then leave creations and then leave the game completely back to xbox home and then reload game and this sorts it out every time for me.
There is actually three different ending locations..one going to his hotel is trackers..one being kidnapping sister.. crimson fleet..one stopping a assassination..hacking for more info..not saying it makes it better.. just noticed most people reviewing the vultcher mod acts like its only got a single path..
I don’t think people are that upset about pricing itself, it’s that BGS has content that is also priced high. For those it’s not paid mods it’s micro-transactions that are being added under the title of paid mods, the only thing these specific ones are supporting is BGS.
It’s not the cost of primers, it’s the low amount of primers available in the shop. I would have rather had it cost a lot of resources to encourage setting bases up.
Matty be thinking about Todd looking at his thumbnail face on this one.
Would be cool if Starfield had in game tv shows like in GTA 5. Would also LOVE radio stations! (funny talk show hosts & varied music). Maybe different radio stations for each major solar system!
Not even joking but I forgot Star field even existed
I already paid over 100 dollars for this game. I am not keen to pay even more. I actually stopped playing it since I have no idea what Bethesda are doing with it and there's not much point finishing it if the game isn't finished.
Same. The game's poor writing and soulless characters made it my least played Bethesda game. Not sure they'll ever add enough to bring me back, so it'll likely remain un-installed for years.
@@joe19912 How many hours did you put in? I enjoyed when I did play for the most part. Was around 30 hours or so and seen that weird psychedelic rings thing twice lol.
I have a similar-ish experience. The most expensive game I've ever bought at launch, and I abandoned it after a few months. It's by far the worst BGS experience I've ever had, given even with games that pissed me off (Oblivion, for one), I still played the hell out of them for months.
To be fair, my MQ completely broke. I waited several months for a fix, but evidently it's a baked-in break that cannot be fixed. I'd put over 80hrs into my playthrough, I think, so I just had no will to start over.
So I waited for mods, which are the only real hope for this game.
*Now* I'm waiting for mods to really kick into gear... Could be a year or two, frankly. It depends what I see being created.
So yeah, I've been playing their games since Morrowind (still their best... ), and SF has been a real letdown. And I wasn't even caught up in the hype, as I've known their shortcomings since Oblivion.
SF has moments of magic, but I don't think vanilla is worth wasting time on. I trust the community more than BGS (paid-mods might corrode even that trust, unfortunately).
Matty, I got an achievement enabler mod as soon as I started modding Starfield (maybe day 2), you had to know it was out there, buddy.
He's talking about Xbox.
That mattress ad was pretty dope honestly.
My original play through saves are now unplayable after the latest update. (This version is obsolete 0 as the current version is 27)…
BGS has not resolved the issue and has been very slow to responding. It’s infuriating after I had been looking forward to getting these new updates.
That ad segway was nice not going to lie
ok that was a good ad transition lol
Okay I'm a full time Starfield hater by now but I gotta agree that the segway to that sponsor was Linus Tech Tips levels of ingenious. Good one, Matty 😂
New to mods and such. So I'm curious about the one you or two you have to pay for by the company. Is just like all mods, and if I buy it, my achievements won't work, or since its from them and not the community, it will still have my achievements work? Thanks guys
The item will specifically be labelled 'achievement friendly', or words to that effect, so you'll know when browsing everything.
I think thus far, the microtransactions - aka BGS Creations (I hate that name... ) - are all achievement friendly. Most mods won't be.
Make a mod where every location is on just one planet just call it immersion
Wow, what a great intro to the sponsor. Chefs kiss.
I have the trackers alliance quest line but i never payed for it. Was it included with the upgraded edition of the game?
moment of silence for Bethesdas good will, you will be missed
Loved the build up for that ad read.
If they charged 3$ for the missions would that make you feel better cause they gave a good free chunk and then charged 7 for individual missions seems like fair trade
If I have to pay for an actual explorable area then I’m gonna go ahead and pass
I don't like only giving 25% to the creator. If the mod is worth it, I'll pay, but really, creations are designed for Xbox users since they are in a closed ecosystem. That's what most pc centric users don't understand, and no one talks about.
Once again pc players are only thinking of themselves, and don't look at the bigger picture.
But it makes sense why pc players are so eager for devs to cater to their desires. They have already spent so much money on building their pcs, that they are determined to get their money's worth.
PC players are catered to. We get access to games that are otherwise in enclosed ecosystems. We can play Helldivers 2 (PS console exclusive), Starfield (Xbox exclusive) and LOTS of games that are PC only. Also, mods for games that aren't available on home consoles.
@@ferrite1707 exactly. Pc players that complain about ui that is designed for universality, are always complaining about ui not being designed for exclusive pc use.
@@ferrite1707 meanwhile I'm glad my xbox can play it!
It's like you order a Lafreniere, but get a Kakko.
Single player games should not have overpriced content drip fed to its customer base. If I wanted a “live service game” I wouldn’t fucking play a Bethesda game. Every fucking game nowadays I see that has so much potential gets reduced to either mediocrity or shit when the “service model” is implemented where it just doesn’t belong. Really like a lot about Starfeild but this is such a new low and there’s NO way Bethesda themselves aren’t aware of this. It’s a practice that rewards publishers to put out worse games than what they are fully capable of and it’s nuts.
I think the rationale was increase the length of the quests that only exist to get you a new gun. I'm not saying it worked, but I think that's what Todd was saying in the interview.
The transition into the ad dabbing on those haters 😂😂😂
The mattress plug is fuggin priceless
Incredible transition to the ad.
I’m so very dissatisfied with starfield but that ad transition was goated
Damn Matty. That Helix transition was slickk.
Still haven’t found that guy lost in SOL. I should really finish the main quest line some day
For me The Vulture quest i didnt see what you showed ,i went to the ambush place and fought them right away. Also for the Astra vendor i just save and reload because some times i trade in 3 and get a crappy 1 or 2 . So i quicksave and reload. I use the Sniper from that quest all the time now. I am glad our queen Elianora gets to live from her great mods. ❤
Elden Ring expansion costs 40USD
Blood and Wine expansion costed 20USD
Phantom Liberty expansion costed 30USD
...All those will get you EASLY over 30h of game time.
Bethesda is charging 7USD for 15min....
Just... Let that sink in.
As for mods? There's no place for payed mods. That's it. If I want to I'll gladly support modder via patreon or paypal (and I do). But payed mods in games? Fuck that.
The prices gotta change. I would love to try new stuff but not paying that much after this
There needs to be a way to leave reviews and ask questions about the mods on the Creation Club. Like when something doesn't work, or doesn't match the description/images shown for the mod. Like there's a mod that adds hairstyles and beards, but when you install that, it removes the 5 o'clock shadow and shaved head textures. Would be nice if people could leave a review or a question, to figure out if that was intended or just not working properly.
Matty nailed the light skin stare in the thumbnail 😮💨
My Vulture quest line took me to Paradiso not to a farm.
mine took me too hopetech and he tried to ambush me so there are different versions of the quest I take it
@@Brad.93 I had the option of going that direction through the quest, but went for the Paradiso option. I had no idea about the farm one though
