No external assets? I don't know if it works like that the same way on the Xbox One, but doesn't that eliminate a huge majority of mods and the reason for them in the first place?

That's a massive overstatement.  Many mods only tweak game-play or use existing assets in new configurations.  I'm pretty sure most of the most popular mods fall into those categories--body replacers aside, of course.

There is some grey area here that I'm not sure of, though, such as how much you can alter an existing asset.

Well I dunno. Like I said in my other reply in this thread, I really don't know much about modding but I know the point is to change and tweak the game to how people wanted to play it or to put what they wanted in it, just that a lot of the mods out there do use a lot of external assets as well though. 

I still don't see why Sony won't allow just full regular mod support if Microsoft is doing it though.
