One of the big games of 2023, even though it didn’t win GOTY, was Star Field. And if Bethesda games (and Starfield too) have one thing going for it, it’s how “nice” they tend to be with their treatment of mods. In June this year, we echoed a report in which the Todd Howard stated that Star Field It will be a modder’s paradise. Let us remember what he said:

This is just a taste of what could happen when Starfield receives official mod support, which we still don’t know when it will arrive.

And the most shocking thing is that with such a scale, it manages to maintain a technical section at the level of a Red Dead Redemption 2 or a Cyberpunk 2077.
