Todd Howard shared some updates about Bethesda’s future gaming projects with MrMattyPlays on YouTube. He mentioned the additional mission for 7 dollars in Starfield, which received feedback from gamers and will be adjusted accordingly.
The team at Bethesda intended for The Trackers Alliance system to be similar to Creation Club in Skyrim, Fallout 4, and Fallout 76, where special items like armor or weapons are sold. However, players viewed this additional mission as a way to monetize game content separately at 700 Starfield Creation Credits or 7 dollars in real money, which was not the team’s original intention. Therefore, the team will reconsider this feedback and make changes to how content is presented, possibly adjusting prices, changing the sales model, or altering the content delivery entirely.
In the past, Bethesda has supported modding communities by providing tools, but there has been dissatisfaction with paid mods in the original Skyrim game. Although Bethesda reversed this concept in 2015, the Skyrim Anniversary Edition features Creation Club, which includes both paid and free mods in one place, raising questions about whether these mods should be strictly for leisure and not for profit.
