A Civil Discussion: Creation club

Honestly guys. I don't get it.

people are screamming at the mud crab and horse armour thing, not understanding that it was satire on bethesdas part? From the Creation Club FAQ:

Can I become a Creator?

Whether you are a professional developer, artist, or modder; you can apply to be a Creator here. Be ready to share work you’ve already done as part of your application.

If I’m accepted to be a Creator, what can I create and what is the dev process?

Creators are required to submit documentation pitches which go through an approval process. All content must be new and original. Once a concept is approved, a development schedule with Alpha, Beta and Release milestones is created. Creations go through our full development pipeline, which Creators participate in. Bethesda Game Studios developers work with Creators to iterate and polish their work along with full QA cycles. The content is fully localized, as well. This ensures compatibility with the original game, official add-ons and achievements.

Are Creators Paid For Their Work?

Yes. Just like our own game developers, Creators are paid for their work and start receiving payment as soon as their proposal is accepted and through development milestones.

Is Creation Club paid mods?

No. Mods will remain a free and open system where anyone can create and share what they’d like. Also, we won’t allow any existing mods to be retrofitted into Creation Club, it must all be original content. Most of the Creation Club content is created internally, some with external partners who have worked on our games, and some by external Creators. All the content is approved, curated, and taken through the full internal dev cycle; including localization, polishing, and testing. This also guarantees that all content works together. We’ve looked at many ways to do “paid mods”, and the problems outweigh the benefits. We’ve encountered many of those issues before. But, there’s a constant demand from our fans to add more official high quality content to our games, and while we are able to create a lot of it, we think many in our community have the talent to work directly with us and create some amazing new things.

After reading these, how can one come to the conlusion that this IS paid mods?

Watch Totalbiscuit and his opinion on Creation Club from the cooptional podcast 174

(timestampped, watch until 1:49:37)

I'm being honest, i don't know what i'm missing that is getting so many people mad. What are the main counter arguments to all of this? where am i out of line to what the people on this sub are thinking?

I'm not asking to be insulted. I'm asking for your opinions.

Edit: i now see this was a waste of effort. you guys won't point out where my counters could be falling short. i just want perspective on why I'm so in the wrong for thinking that this might be a good thing, and that you guys believe you are right to fight this. so you can forget this. I'm sure you will succeed in your effort to pirate all the content they release on creation club.

Just remember to call me out and tell me to kill myself if i'm wrong and Bethesda gets it wrong, so long as you praise me and call me a god for calling it right.

Because all I've gained while talking to this community over the last week since the creation club announcement is that you are an echo chamber of thought that prevents any outsider to shine a light on why you could be wrong, or to try and gain insight as to why you are acting like spoiled brats and assuming that Bethesda is the devil.

Edit 2: before anybody comments, yes i know i was contradictory by not keeping civil in my first edit, so what? you didn't treat me with respect when i asked for information or clarity, so why should i remain civil? doesn't matter, I'm not coming back here.
