I think that maybe it would be better if there was something like an effort to set up paid third-party large DLC. Bethesda doesn't really sell small things, on the order of what a lot of mod authors provide (well, they tried to sell individual models and skins in Fallout 76 , which I don't think has been fantastically successful). They've never had an industry where one could a la carte buy individual game mechanics from them. What they're known for is making full-on expansions and selling those. I can imagine an industry where third parties can sell those maybe working out better.
