So I am curious do you guys think Bethesda is going to try set up pay mods again like they tried a while back?

I am thinking they will, and that's how they will offset the cost of porting to console.

Do you think it will be a smart/wise move?

Anyways, curious about this I am. And curious what other people think of it.

boy, that again? really now?

How about 'Unlikely' and 'That depends...' options.

Also, the 'No. Just no.' option seems to be deliberately emotive and designed to get people into an argumentative state of mind.

I think that Bethesda may well try paid mods again at some point in the future, though it's unlikely to be for Fallout 4. If they do try paid mods for Fallout 4, it would most likely only be for mods hosted on Bethesda.net and destined for console, with the justification being that they have to be vetted or moderated, and the servers and bandwidth are a direct cost to Bethesda.

Would they be wise to do so? That would mostly be a marketing and PR decision, which I don't have much experience in. I suspect they'd need to approach it in a much more hands-on way, on the same basis as selling commercial software, with the same rules on liability under consumer law, and clear rules about mod interdependency. If they weren't going to address those areas, then I think they'd be very, very unwise to try paid mods again.

I'm not even going to touch whether it's right or fair to the modding community. That's a can of worms which is thread-lock material.

I put no, just no. As I seem to have found in other forums, such as the nexus. As people are either just a straight yes. Or a Heck no. I tried to put it rather nicely. So no, it is not intended to deliberately motivate people into a debate. It is actually just the opposite, where the option is there so people do not have to get into a debate. This is my first poll. So I am sorry there are not more options. Thank you for your input, , I will keep that in mind later down the road
