And it all died with fucking horse armor that didn't even provide armor.

It's interesting that valve never got any shit for it, it was all directed at Bethesda, but to me it seemed like Valve's idea.

2015: Valve and Bethesda jointly introduced paid Skyrim mods through the Steam Workshop. Valve built and operated the marketplace system; Bethesda approved and participated in its implementation. The scheme was withdrawn after only a few days of massive community protest

Because it wasn't in 2015 with Skyrim. It was oblivion that had the first horse armor.

I sometimes think about how things are so bad in part because there are so many people making unnecessary bad decisions. Like, just don't buy the horse armor. Do something else.

But there are so many idiots that bad things remain profitable

People want to show they are a dumb idiot with money to spend unlike you and make it a point of pride.

Its monetized specifically at your discomfort.

I have a recurring fantasy of a honey pot for this sort of thing. You advertise like an exclusive doodad that no reasonable person would buy. Maybe extra-large cars. Maybe horse armor. Could be anything. Everyone who goes to buy one goes straight to therapy, and they don't leave until they're no longer a fucking moron. Kind of like The Good Place.
