'Magic' Mud Puddle in Starfield Removed, Leaving Players Mourning the Loss of Their Reliable Friend

A small mud puddle in Starfield provided players with free items thanks to a developer oversight. Many grew fond of this "magic" puddle.
The puddle would refill with free guns, ammo, credits, etc every few days. Players could take the items to resell for profit.
Bethesda has now patched Starfield, removing the puddle and its exploits from the game completely.
For some, the puddle was a reliable source of valuable gear and funds across many hours of playtime. Its loss is genuinely felt.
While an exploit, the mud puddle provided hope and reliability to players in an otherwise harsh game universe. It will be missed.
