First Starfield mods released even though the game isn’t out yet
https://www.dsogaming.com/mods/first-starfield-mods-released-even-though-the-game-isnt-out-yet/
Starfield will officially release on September 6th and despite that, the first mods for it have already appeared online. Hell, its Early Access phase hasn’t even started yet (the game will unlock for those who have purchased the Digital Premium and Constellation Editions in two hours).
>> They're four, but only only one is practical (it's also a cheat).

PureDark has just released a free mod for Starfield that replaces FSR 2.0 with Intel XeSS and NVIDIA DLSS 2. This is a must-have mod for everyone, and it’s good to see a free version of it available to everyone.

The first of what will one day be thousands of character presets to hit Starfield's Nexus Mods page is, naturally, George Costanza

Every Bethesda game’s character creation menu has witnessed some horrors in its time. From attempts to make Anakin Skywalker in Skyrim, all the way to some of the most terrifying Fallout 4 faces that were enough to break the bathroom mirror. And I’m sure you’ve been witness to plenty of stars made in Bethesda games, too—maybe even attempted some yourself. It does take some effort to get it right, though.
More to the point, I don’t want to have to spend hours in the Starfield character creator to live out my dream of playing Sinefeld characters in space. Thanks to this new Nexus Mods character preset, that dream can become a reality, minus all the hard graft.
Yep, the first character preset for the game appears to be George Costanza. For... reasons?
>> Don't be fooled by the first pic of the article, the real mod is a bit below.
