What is Creation Club, to those of us not familiar with the franchise?

Essentially Bethesda's way to make even more money off mods.

God dammit..

Paid mods essentially

Oh, I'm hoping this means paid, as in the modders get paid and not Bethesda...

Edit: I was wrong..

Modders can get a cut if they are approved by Bethy. At least now the unapproved ones are free

There was a lawsuit around it and Fallout 4 previously because the season pass claimed to give people all of FO4’s paid content under it. Which official paid mods would fall under. After Microsoft took over, the US courts decided they could use arbitration which I assume since this is being reintroduced means they told the arbitrator they would continue to use them if they continue to rule in their favour
