So the Unreal Tournament devs are paying modders to make maps, characters and weapon skins for them. Is this a good way to do an alternative to "paid mods" by having the company itself pay modders for their work?

Its not the first time they've done this, they had the "Make Something Unreal" contest in UT2k4.

Unreal Tournament already has paid cosmetics made by users. That's "paid mods" in it as of today.

There is literally nothing wrong with selling skins in a free game.
The maps are there to download for free from there before they are officially put into the next update.

Most modders do it to get into the industry. No one will care if you make a shit game, but if you make a decent mod with an established company there is a good chance that company will hire you. Also it is a lot easier to make a map or a skin than an entire game.

Because they have to stop dreaming about enjoying life and creating something, and instead do what it takes to get paid so they can eat food and pay rent.

Those not mods though, quasi-contract work to get shit done.
