Starfield's Shattered Space patch fixes a modding restriction that could turn your game into a surrealist hellscape

Starfield's first story expansion arrives today: Shattered Space brings a bit of cosmic horror courtesy of those snake-worshipping space cultists we all know and love, and with it comes a fresh batch of fixes in the form of Starfield Update 1.14.70. Our Shattered Space review is on the way, but we've got patch notes to dig through in the meantime—including one particular fix that'll keep your mods from goofing up your game.

Another patch note providing some peace of mind is a fix for Annihilator weapons, which have a chance to generate a damaging disease cloud when they hit an enemy. Previously, those clouds didn't discriminate between enemies and other NPCs like quest characters and companions, which meant they'd start taking damage and react as
