So I had it narrowed down to Doctors Without Borders and the International Committee of the Red Cross. "As important as, say, the Wildlife Conservation Society's work is, they're not a particularly fitting choice for this to go to. "Some of them are not super relevant," says Radbeetle. These are the Wildlife Conservation Society, Child's Play, The International Committee of the Red Cross, Make A Wish, Against Malaria, and Doctors Without Borders. If authors are feeling particularly giving, they can choose to donate their DP to one of six charities. Depending on the amount of DP banked, they can put it towards Steam keys (XCOM 2, for instance, costs 10,500 DP), PayPal payouts, and premium memberships entitling perks such as forum access and ad removal. Authors receive donation points, or DP, based on how many unique downloads their mods receive. Set live in May 2018, the donation points system offers a way for mod authors to profit from their hobby. Fallout 4, like Fallout games before it, has been home to plentiful mods. The mod took less than a day to make, but thanks to Nexus' donation points system, the benefit outweighs the cost. "And because it was fairly quick to put together, I figure even if it just raises ten bucks, that's a decent time/money ratio." "I remembered the donation points system on the Nexus and I thought, hey, this quick little mod might be able to translate into at least a bit of assistance, however small," says Radbeetle. Rather, this download represents more of a philanthropic gesture, one made possible by Nexus Mods' donation system.
Transforming the game isn't Radbeetle's intention, though.
The second renames several other in-game items to mirror the cultural zeitgeist: antibiotics become 'toilet paper,' herbal stimulant becomes 'disinfectant,' anodyne becomes 'bleach,' and antimicrobial becomes 'hand sanitizer.' Assets and effects stay the same, making this mod an inessential method of injecting some morbid reality into Bethesda's wasteland. One changes the names of all six diseases in survival mode to 'COVID-19' (these, for the record, are fatigue, infection, insomnia, lethargy, parasites, and weakness). The package features two files to download. It's called COVID-19 Coronavirus Outbreak, and it's available right now on popular modding website Nexus Mods. A player by the name of Radbeetle is behind one altruistic mod aiming to give a helping hand to healthcare workers. In Fallout 4, the pandemic has prompted an act of charity. Video games are responding to the strange challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic in a multitude of ways, whether slashing sale prices, offering double XP weekends, or hosting memorial processions.
