I'm currently playing Fallout 4 on Xbox S and the game is a laggy crash fest. As you may know I've been working on my gaming room/ office, there have been headache after headache configuring my setup, display, and sound but up to this point it has all been worth it. So I pick up Fallout 4 with the season pass and dive right in to the post apocalypse. For the first time mods have been introduced to consoles as a play at your own risk. I get 2 gigs of download space which I quickly use up, mostly quality of life mods, menu fixes, patches, and settlement tile sets.
I get to Piper a companion you meet and she won't talk to me or open the gate to diamond city, I try everything and search online for an answer and I find it. I was using an alternate start mod which makes it impossible for the main quest lines to trigger, I uninstall it and try again but alas I have to start a new character and the problem goes away. I've mostly been building settlements and decide to start some of the dlc only to find that none of the dlc quests will trigger. I became stuck in a room locked between doors.
Here is why I'm angry at Bethesda, I had the exact same problem with Oblivion on the 360 years ago. At the time it was because I was playing as a Dremora, a creature type and not a select able race. Back then I was locked out of the shivering isles dlc and the church for the main quest. The design flaw is that they don't want enemies following the player into rooms with special characters or quests. Back then I used to hex edit myself into a cell as a quick fix. So if you use any game play changing mods the game will literally block you from experiencing any of the main story lines. I've tried downloading cheat mods and the unofficial patch overhaul but to no avail.
There games are terribly broken upon delivery. I'm upset because this isn't a glitch or bug it is a feature that exists in all their titles. Twice now they've locked me out of content that I have payed for. The point I make is one that comes from a customer. I should not be having these headaches just because I snuck a mod onto a console. If I look at the mods in my library they have been downloaded hundreds of thousands of times, all those people are probably left with the same issues as mine. If paid mods weren't already insult to injury. That means I could purchase a mod from Bethesda that they themselves are selling to me and it will defacto lock me out of content. Fix your games Bethesda.
