Its worse than that. They added an entire questline, gave you the first quest, and then charged 7 dollars per quest!

Howards gone off the rails. He's a corpo hack. Always was, but now he can shed the leather jacket and McDuck dive into his pool of Creation Coins with no shame.

$7, but you a only spend $10 at a time! It ain't gonna be 10 quests or 5 quests. It's gonna be like 3 or six so you'll be left with $9 in coins and feel like you're wasting cash if you don't spend another $10 to buy some other creation club shit.

God I fucking hate the premium currency tactic.

What's the total price, then?

Who knows? It's an early access paid mod, meaning they only did the first two quests, and promised more.

To continue this quest, please insert credit card.

To access this quest location, please insert credit card.

To complete this quest, please insert credit card.

If I’m reading it right, it’s a quest framework and one quest is free, the other is paid. So it sounds like we’ll be able to completely ignore the quest if you never visit CC content in the first place.

For free mod purposes, sounds like it should be easier for mod makers to create bounty hunting quests.

Yes you're reading it perfectly, Bethesda as usual actually isn't being as money hungry as they could've.

People still gonna hate though, that Starfield/Bethesda hate train is way too well entrenched.

[–] Lobreeze@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Why defend Bethesda? They ain't your friend. You get nothing out of it.

[–] Bernie_Sandals@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Because I don't think they're as shitty as people claim? And I understand that Bethesda isn't just a shitty group of corporate managers, but also a team of people who have devoted their lives to these franchises.

They put the intro guy at the entrance to cydonia, the only way to avoid it is dont upgrade to the latest patch.

[–] Coasting0942@reddthat.com -1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The intro guy to the second quest? Or the intro to the bounty quest framework?

[–] Kaboom@reddthat.com 2 points 5 months ago

Intro to the questline. And it's not a framework, it's a questline.

Damn, I was just thinking of giving SF another shot. Guess it wasn’t meant to be.
