Starfield players now have the opportunity to embark on their interstellar journey with a humorous twist, thanks to a unique mod available on Nexus Mods. This quirky addition to the game introduces a flashlight that projects the visage of Todd Howard, the renowned game director and a prominent figure at Bethesda Game Studios.
Created by modder GeraldMods, the “Todd Howard Flashlight Mod” overlays an image of Todd Howard onto the in-game flashlight, effectively illuminating your path with his likeness. The mod has garnered over 100 unique downloads, reflecting the Bethesda community’s fondness for incorporating Todd Howard’s face into their gaming experiences.
Todd Howard is affectionately regarded as “the face of Bethesda,” and it has become a recurring joke among fans to insert his image into various Bethesda titles, such as Skyrim and Fallout.
In a similar vein, another mod titled the “Todd Howard Painting Replacer” has recently surfaced on Nexus Mods. This mod replaces every painting within the Constellation Lodge in Starfield with portraits of the Bethesda director himself.
The modding community for Starfield is quickly gaining momentum, with various creative additions to the game. For example, a mod that adds DLSS capability to the game has already emerged, enhancing the visual experience for players.
Additionally, it was recently revealed that Bethesda hired a prominent modder from the Skyrim and Fallout community, Emmi Junkkari, as a “lighting and clutter” artist for Starfield. Junkkari shared this news on Twitter and expressed the need to keep details about the game secret before its official release.
Starfield, Bethesda’s highly anticipated space-faring RPG, officially launches on September 6 for Xbox Series X|S and PC. However, it is currently available in early access for those who pre-ordered the Premium Edition or Constellation Edition, allowing players to embark on their cosmic adventures ahead of the official release date. With the enthusiastic modding community, Starfield is poised to offer players an array of creative and entertaining modifications in the future.
