Hopefully it doesn’t seem like I’m saying the mods aren’t a good thing or that the game is perfectly fine without them, I just believe it creates this strange mindset for players.
I even do this, as I play Bethesda games I make these little mental notes of small mechanics and things as I play and then go look for mods to change them, sometimes even saving and stopping right then to go look, whereas in normal games I’d probably just be like “huh, that’s just okay” or “I don’t care for that much”, but just move on.
I’ve actually not felt the need to mess with the inventory, but I’m sure I will eventually because it could certainly be better, but I find it just fine, the fact that people are releasing mods for that can say just as much about their preferences as it might about any inherent design failing. A lot of mods come out quickly moreso because they’re staple changes that some part of the audience always would like to have upon release, not specifically because it’s so god awful people just had to do it or they couldn’t enjoy it.
I haven’t noticed anything UI wise as egregious as being unable to sort your inventory by sell value in Borderlands 3.
Yeah, that mod is definitely better than default UI, but I’ve also never felt like the UI was straight bad and I haven’t felt frustrated or like I was unable to do something or sort what I needed to. I’m trying to wait for a few significant patches before I get into mods.
As soon as I start adding mods I then need to keep up with updating them as patches for the game release, and some mods don’t get updated and break, and you know how Bethesda save files can become dependent on the mods you installed to load, so I’m trying to not go down that road yet. The UI is perfectly fine enough for me to not be the igniter for me to start modding, even though chances are high they’ll keep it updated, I’m just enjoying the game for now in its own right.
I’ve been searching for a nice planet with titanium deposits and adhesive dropping plants to farm - by the time I find it I probably won’t need it, and I definitely could’ve grinded out the mats waiting for merchants to restock. I do have two outposts that are just resource mines (I think its tantulum for one and titanium or something for the other). The idea is very intriguing as it seems like I could make an actual factory - but then there’s really no point other than to do it just because.
Yea this is another aspect of the game I’m not really interested in but I recognize that’s just me. I just buy frames I like and then upgrade components.
I wish for a mod that makes it easy to find stuff in space - like do you think i can remember the planet where I have ytterbium marked when I need it? Or even find a named planet without clicking and zooming on every star. Kind of ridiculous it’s not there really.

I am 30 hours in and can’t begin to imagine what I would ever want an outpost for. It isn’t like resources are expensive.
