Are you implying by that that mods are being prevented from operating? The second line implies the opposite … “If you are experiencing gameplay issues while playing with mods, it’s recommended you first try uninstalling your mods”

‘Supported’ could means that Bethesda will basically ignore any problem reports or support requests whilst mods (which are completely out of their control) are installed - seems reasonable to me.

The article says that it wasn’t going to be supported due to system specs (tbh, I had assumed that they would be using some goddawful kernel based drm monstrosity), so it could just be that the programmer has finally received their copy of ‘Code optimisation for dummies’.
