He cannot officially use the Patreon to make money for modding.
But if you read between the lines he basically says that everything will be the same. It's just that he will be more discreet and not say outright that the people pay for the mods. Obviously Bethesda does not like people making profit from their games, even if they improve uppon them and keep the community going.
Retards.

It's just donations Bethy... just let them. It's something you should have been doing back when you wanted paid mods... but no Bethy you wanted it all! Bethy you're a cunt!
The mod creator does it in a nice way as well. Not locking away early versions behind a paywall. Even has one time donations set up  Perfect example of how people should run donations.

They did the same for Doom and that turned out alright. Pre-ordering / buying day one is usually for chumps anyway, as the vast majority of game reviewers are not to be trusted - only peer reviews matter.

Clearly gamejournos should be ENTITLED to early review copies.
First good thing Bethesda has done since Morrowind is make RPS cry about how supposedly "anti-consumer" it is that they won't be getting earlier review copies. Fucking hypocritical idiots.

Ehhhh they have a point this time.
Mostly because bethesda's statement was fucking ridiculous... “everyone, including those in the media, to experience our games at the same time” after we've seen tons of videos from folks on youtube/twitch that have the game already for a while, fuck off bethesda 
On the other hand:

Almost a rearpost-y non-news, but  : http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/169219-Bethesda-Says-No-More-Remasters-in-the-Elder-Scrolls-Series
| Quote: | In an interview with Official Xbox Magazine UK (posted online by GamesRadar, Bethesda vice president Pete Hines explained why Dishonored and Skyrim got remasters, and why the rest of the Elder Scrolls games probably won't.
Hines said that Dishonored "was a unique case where it was a new IP at the very end of the last generation of consoles. So remastering it and bringing it to this gen wasn't a ton of work and it made a lot of sense given the proximity of those two.
Skyrim was more about the work that Bethesda Game Studios had done in the early days of getting ready for Fallout 4 on this generation of consoles-moving the Skyrim engine and doing some work to run it on this generation of consoles just to see how it worked, and so forth, before they started doing all their Fallout stuff. It's the most recent thing they did."
Hines went on to point out that Bethesda generally doesn't want to spend the amount of time that sort of remaster would entail on old content. "But these things take time, it takes effort and manpower. Generally speaking, our approach has usually been that instead of spending all this time on a thing we've already made, why don't we instead spend that effort on something new, or on the next version of that thing?" |

Bethesda's Parent Company Zenimax Comments on Lawsuit Against Facebook, Oculus
| Quote: | Zenimax has issued a statement the day before Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is due to testify in court in the intellectual property case against his company.
Zenimax said it and id Software, the company behind Doom, "welcome the opportunity" to present what it claims is "substantial evidence" against Facebook and Oculus in the case.
The full statement provided to IGN by a Zenimax representative is below:
"With the start of the trial of our case in Federal District Court in Dallas against Defendants Facebook, Oculus and its management, ZeniMax and id Software welcome the opportunity to present substantial evidence of the Defendants' misappropriation of our Virtual Reality (VR) intellectual property. That evidence includes the theft of trade secrets and highly confidential information, including computer code. ZeniMax will also present evidence of the Defendants' intentional destruction of evidence to cover up their wrongdoing. ZeniMax and id Software are the visionary developers of breakthrough VR technology, and look forward to the vindication of our claims."
Zenimax accuses Oculus of stealing trade secrets, "highly confidential information," such as computer code, and a charge of intentionally covering up alleged wrongdoing by destroying evidence.
The ZeniMax case against Oculus was originally filed in 2014. In August 2016, it was updated to include Oculus chief technology officer John Carmack and CEO Brendan Iribe as defendants. Carmack, who left id Software in 2013, is accused of copying documents belonging to Zenimax to a USB thumb drive.
It also accuses Carmack of returning to Zenimax after joining Oculus and taking a tool for working on virtual reality. After the case was filed, Carmack issued a statement denying the allegations against him, saying Oculus uses none of the code he wrote while at ZeniMax. He added while the original code he wrote belongs to Zenimax, "they don't own VR."
Mark Zuckerberg will take the stand to answer questions about Facebook's acquisition of Oculus. Oculus founder Palmer Luckey is set to take the stand later in the week.
According to VentureBeat, Facebook claims the lawsuit is motivated by Zenimax having passed on Oculus before it was acquired by the social media giant.
Zenimax seeks $2 billion USD in damages, the same amount Facebook paid to acquire Oculus in the first place. |

Thanks for reminding me, bobsen, also read this earlier:
http://uploadvr.com/john-carmack-oculus-zenimax-oath/
| Quote: | | Among the exchanges our ears in the room overheard, he explained in open court what source code is and that ‘BFG’ stands for ‘Big Fucking Gun.’ In some instances his back and forth during questioning became relatively heated, with ZeniMax attorney Anthony Sammi pressing for answers about how Carmack handled certain computer equipment. One line of questioning asked whether Carmack knew about a “secret meeting” in a hotel room with Oculus co-founders Nate Mitchell and Palmer Luckey, to which Carmack responded “No I didn’t, it was a secret.” A MacBook was brought up during questioning as well, with the lawyer asking why it was never wiped, with Carmack responding: “I am not a Mac user unless under duress.” |

Oculus lawsuit ends with half billion dollar judgment awarded to ZeniMax
Luckey pays $50M, Iribe pays $150M
| Quote: | A Dallas, Texas jury today awarded half a billion dollars to ZeniMax after finding that Oculus co-founder Palmer Luckey, and by extension Oculus, failed to comply with a non-disclosure agreement he signed.
In awarding ZeniMax $500 million, the jury also said that Oculus did not misappropriate trade secrets as contended by ZeniMax.
Of the $500 million, Oculus is paying out $200 million for breaking the NDA and $50 million for copyright infringement. Oculus and Luckey each have to pay $50 million for false designation. And Iribe has to pay $150 million for the same, final count.
Reached for comment shortly after the verdict, Oculus said they will be appealing, but that they look forward to eventually putting the case behind them.
“The heart of this case was about whether Oculus stole ZeniMax's trade secrets, and the jury found decisively in our favor,” an Oculus spokesperson told Polygon. “We're obviously disappointed by a few other aspects of today's verdict, but we are undeterred. Oculus products are built with Oculus technology. Our commitment to the long-term success of VR remains the same, and the entire team will continue the work they've done since day one – developing VR technology that will transform the way people interact and communicate. “ |

Nice job Carmack or so I guess since he admitted to a few things which probably "kinda" swayed things in Zenimax's favor although this probably not too much for Facebock / Oculus as such but they're probably none to happy about this though Zeni did at least only get half of what they had sued for.
(Nothing wrong with the guy as such or anything but it does appear he might have messed up a bit with all of this.)
Well it's not a full loss at least.
