It's not good that the games are broken and they are relying on modders to fix them. It would be totally fine if they released a fully functioning thematic sandbox for modders to play in though.

The thing about Bethesda games is that their modding tools are far and away from any other game, making serious improvements much more accessible. That's one of the major draws of them.

I just wish every game didn't have an unofficial patch requirement to keep it from crashing too often.
