Cant wait to play Skryim on XB1 with mods next month. Bad move Sony.

No 4K Blu ray, no mods. Sony must be tired of selling PS4 and they want people to stop.

Wow.... the sony haters (aka people who ALWAYS hate on sony) are out in force in this thread.

Shouldn't be the users the ones who decide which mods to use and which ones not to? Taking away the choice doesn't really help. It's better to have tons of options and letting the players filter them than having none at all. Sony shouldn't interfere at any point in-between.

Funny, but sadly listening to a very vocal minority, that seems to be the case.  I guess they hated every console until now, including the OG XBO at launch.

You get swung at the most when you're on top.  Well, unless your MS and it's the American gaming media. 

Seriously, there's not much to throw at Sony now, so they'll grasp at anything.  I think we are going to need another sales update during or after the holidays to illustrate how little this truly matters. 

If that user is correct, it seems Bethesda just wanted to dump the mods in, regardless of what tools/quality Sony requires be used.  Kinda like they do with all of their games on any system.  Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if the Skyrim on next gen systems still runs poorly at launch, with countless bugs.  I hope that's not the case, as I plan on getting shortly after release, but it is Bethesda. They are damn lucky that their games are usually pretty fun.  Otherwise, they would have been done a long time ago.

PS owners once again f**ked over, first Skyrim on PS3 now this slap in the face.

I'm not sure if it's all as black and white as Bethesda makes it sound, but my first reaction to this would be 'Sony sucks'.

Aw... whats the point of allowing mods then? :)

Installing a mod is no different than opening your console to modify it, whether technical or visually. You have the option to, and you can (and probably will) destroy your device with it, but at no point one should be able to come and actually make you not being able to open your console. That's the point with mods, it's up to the users themselves to filter and install them. Someone preventing them from doing so is absurd, no matter the risk.

Not to make a comparison, but since mods are already working on PC and the other console, and nothing such as "harm to the network" has happened so far, what possibly reason there could be to prevent the player from having the choice, other than stuborness?

That's really absurd.

No one can complain about Sony selling a messy game that they themselves, voluntarily, made unstable. You basically render any legal action moot the moment you decide to accept what comes with mods. You can be dumb as a brick, but that'd be your own fault.

Why wouldn't they allow to modify a game that isn't even theirs? If the developer of such game allows it so, why would the platform owner prevent him from doing so, especially when the other platform owners haven't done so and no problem has come from it so far?
