I expect it to be a buggy mess that has lots of potential and doesn't deliver on half of what it seems like it should do. Then after a year or two it will finally be patched into being mostly stable and mods will have reached a point where it can mostly be turned into the game I actually want. However there will be a few creative decisions that I absolutely hate but which are so unnecessarily locked in that even mods can't fix them, so I'll have to just accept them as an irritant that I will do my best to ignore.
They're gonna block mod tools, just wait.
Considering how the modding community made Skyrim a long-term success, this would be a very foolish decision.
They're going to try make paid mods a thing again.
You say that as if it removes the possibility but I don't think I need to provide specific examples of obviously foolish decisions ruining modern games. There are plenty to choose from.
Oh absolutely, and Bethesda is absolutely capable of that. It would be very myopic for them though. They can't possibly be ignorant of the fact that modding is what kept Skyrim selling for a decade.
Preventing modding would be a substantial exercise in hubris ("we don't need them"), or one of those intentional failure/tax writeoff things.
If they did that nobody would even be able to play the game, you expect Bethesda to do their own patching!?
