What would Bethesda be without the Mod-Community?

Bethesda really made RPG a thing, Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout serie... It can be comparedwithwhen Crysis came out with a new never seen graphics 2007.

I always come back to play Skyrim, but I use so many mods that it's taking over the original Skyrim, made by Bethesda..
Bethesda today is not what it used to be, it's more about the money than the game today to be honest...

The mod community saved Skyrim so much, feels like it's 70% finished by bethesda and the modders make the game completed over and over again. Skyrim is a master peace but also shit. By shit I mean it's a very beatiful world and everything but it becomes boring after a while with mods..

When morrowind was released it was a new door for the RPG, but I feel could be so much more then it was. It's showed by the mod-community many times. Did bethesda know that the modders would make the game better? Yeah probably.

"Let's make Skyrim easy for modders to use, we will save a lot of money for free work".
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE that it's easy to mod Skyrim but I feel like Bethesda could have made more work in the game, it feels kinda of empty without mods.

So do you think bethesda now days would be shit without Modders?

Honestly I have never used mods, the ones ive tried often don't lend anything to the gameplay.

Definitely. I think Bethesda would be like Ubisoft. They don't make any ways for players to mod their gamesand noweverybody plays themfor awhile and forgets them rather quickly. But Ubisoft releases more games at least, so Bethesda would be in shit in their place.

No, I think Bethesda would be fine without modders.

I do like the fact that they allow it, but for the most part, aside from a couple UI mods, I never use mods in Skyrim. I like to play the game that they release, and if I find a weird quirk (they need to do something about the inventory!) then I may through something on, but I don't use anything that changes gameplay, makes things easier, or even adds more content. There is enough content in the game that I could probably go back and play it again and still find new stuff, after many many hours of playing.
