Mini Boss Babble are smaller, one topic cuts from our otherwise extensive weekly podcast.In this Mini Boss Babble we discuss the recently released survival mod which has launched for Bethesda's Skyrim via the creation club.The survival mod, as it turns out, includes a lot of features which are already present in existing, free, mods: Frostfall and iNeed. Modding, and paid mods, is a regular discussion for the team, however this topic brings out a different side of the discussion — do modders hold any ownership over the idea behind the mod?
