Last I tested it, it did not.

Like I said, I'm sure there will be junk mods but there's also the potential for some great mods to arise as well. Sony doesn't seem to want Bethesda games to get them however.

The monsters! Trying to provide mod support to console games...

I tell ya, some people are just pure evil.

I think the best situation is having mods as an OPTION. If people don't want mods in their games, no one is forcing them. But if people do want to mod their Bethesda game, Sony's gonna have a say.

By the way, let me know if you see the blue box in your buddy.

Not for Bethesda Games though. They release some pretty major open-world games, I hear.

I understand you'd rather not have early access or modding for Bethesda games but I'm sure there are PS4 owners who would like it. No skin off your nose if the OPTION becomes available, no one's forcing you but if not, those other owners miss out.

It's not my decision if everyone gets it.  I'm not stopping Sony.  I'm just agreeing with their reason behind it.  Bethesda should have quality control if they want it on ps4.  Not just a free for all.  

User/community feedback is already quality control. Sony does not seem to agree thus Microsoft is locking and loading.

Not a bad thing: when producers compete, consumers win.

Well I mean if you have both consoles then there's no point of getting the ps4 version over xbox one version

Sony ain't competing.  They're just sticking to their policies.  I'm fine with that in this case. 

If you say so. Perhaps I imagined PS4 console units sitting right next to XBox 1 console units at retailers.

I dunno. I mean it sucks I guess. Although if I was Sony I'd be wary of Bethesda doing anything I can't monitor to the console after all the crap that Beth has been releasing for the past 10 years. I mean shit the fog in Far Harbor caused issues.

I have no problem with Sony sticking to their policies in this case. I think something that those defending Sony may be missing is that Sony appeared to signal their willingness to allow Bethesda to do mods, leading to Bethesda announcing that they were coming, despite the fact that Sony should have been aware of technical and policy issues that were going to make that unlikely. The Reddit thread (linked in an earlier post) goes into them in some detail. People who made purchasing decisions based on that announcement may be justifiably frustrated. Someone who wants mods, but chose the PS4 version when they could have gone in a different direction, ought to have been informed at an earlier point that the mods situation wasn't likely to go their way.
