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.
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.
Bro, literally. Bethesda drops the next-gen update for Fallout 4 right before the show/Fallout: London mod releases, and everyone and their mother believes Bethesda is purposefully sabotaging the FO: Lon team by doing so. Once the dust settles, everyone just goes “oopsie, wasn’t me 🤭”
Bethesda “shadow-drops” (there were plenty of leaks and no one seemed to dispute the claims anyway) the release of Oblivion Remastered right when there’s a ton of talk about Skyblivion recently being close to completion, and everyone and their mother once again blames Bethesda for purposefully doing so to sabotage yet another huge mod team. When in reality, Bethesda gave copies to each of the team members who are actively working on said project for free as a token of appreciation for being such devoted fans of the IP in the first place.
It’s like everyone has these weird “anti-Bethesda” blinders on whenever there’s a new thing from them in the news that gathers any bit of hype. Even the Bethesda fanboys are guilty of this.

The vast majority of games don’t have official mod support. Fuck them for sometimes officially supporting it, I guess.
Shut up I’m entertained seeing all these ignorant people who don’t know what they’re talking about crying.
