When Microsoft acquired Bethesda Game Studios for $7.5 billion in 2021, it was made abundantly clear some of Bethesda?s upcoming fare would be exclusive to Xbox and PC. Yet, when Starfield (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-starfield/)launched, some PlayStation fans seemed to take umbrage with that. So much so that a mod has been created, the purpose of which is solely to take the Bethesda splash screen that plays when you load up the game ? and replace it with the PlayStation Studios intro.

Talk about aesthetic-only mod choicesIt?d be one thing if the mod had other purposes, and this was just one of them ? but that?s not the case here (https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/1183?tab=description). It's just a new intro, and it's hilarious in a multitude of ways. I know that some folks are going to read this story and get wrapped up in the console wars, to which I say ? no matter how many times you load up Starfield and see the PlayStation Studios intro, you?re still playing it on a PC (at least, until this mod comes to consoles (https://www.destructoid.com/todd-howard-confirms-starfield-creation-kit-mod-support-will-launch-in-2024/)).
Now, I?m all for the freedom to create and use whatever mods your heart desires. Note how I?m not saying you shouldn?t use this mod; only that you shouldn?t be surprised when someone calls it silly.
