    Kunos has built a lot of good will in the community with the modability of AC and long term support for both AC and ACC. The AC Evo early access has been real clunky but they earned their fans and their understanding.

        They’ve said it will be moddable in the full release and that they intend to create their own platform to host mods

          Reminds me of Bethesda’s storefront for paid mods that they tried out for Skyrim’s special edition in 2023. Hopefully they don’t pull a bait-and-switch on their players and it’s just a platform for free mods.

            There are a lot of paid mods for the original AC, so I expect that will be part of it. However, I do think that there are two other reasons for the devs to want to host a platform of their own:

            • Being able to remove content ripped from other games, which will help keep them out of trouble
            • Giving users the option to automatically download the mods necessary to join a multiplayer game

            I agree, although I think that they would understand how harmful a lack of mod support would be to the game. I hope they do, anyway
