It was Skyrim's equivalent to Paradox selling Cities: Skylines DLC packs of community-made buildings. Creation Club items were often developed by Bethesda themselves, but could also be made by modders in explicit partnership with Bethesda. These were DLC by any other name, bought using credits which in turn cost real money. Skyrim Special Edition already had a 'Creations' menu through which players could access Creation Club items. The same update also broke existing mods dependent on Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE), a commonly used community-made modding toolkit. It's 'paid mods', in other words, and a revival of an idea Bethesda launched and abandoned in 2015. A new update for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition has introduced 'Creations', a method through which community modders can sign up to the 'Bethesda Game Studios Verified Creator Program' and then sell their work through the platform to receive royalties.
