Hopefully people can stop with the "I bet Bethesda will take down skyblivion!1!!" comments now. It's very clear there's good will between modders and the devs.

Shut up I'm entertained seeing all these ignorant people who don't know what they're talking about crying.

People are complaining because Bethesda didn't launch the game with official mod support. Meaning it doesn't have a "mods" option on the main menu. Bethesda hasn't said they have a problem with mods or will go after anyone that uses them. But everyone is acting like this means Bethesda suddenly hates mods. Skyrim launched without official mod support too, but somehow it managed to be a successful game on top of having a massive modding community. People just want to complain for the sake of complaining.

Official Mod support often gets added later, Starfield for example was launched without and it was added later. This is a general trend nowadays, mod support for Baldurs Gate 3 (as an non Bethesda example) was added later too.

I am sure Oblivion Remastered will get mod support, and I would be very surprised if mod support will not also come with Creations integration.

The vast majority of games don't have official mod support. Fuck them for sometimes officially supporting it, I guess.
