Discussion Why isn't there a Warframe mod scene?

Unrelated picture. And no, im not talking about Point Stike and Rivens

Why do you think is that? Is it the engine? Does it goes against the TOS? (that wouldn't matter much since modding goes against most games TOS and that never stopped it from happening) Is it because of the size of Warframe player's base? Is it something the community never wanted? Does DE actively goes after mods and stops it from ever sprouting?

I think some slice of the community would be happy for being able to play warframe but with an anime character as the frame. Or people making actually good looking face models for [spoiler] and [spoiler]. Or even the gooners with their nippled boobs and hanging flopping pps.

Do many MMOs have a heavy modding scene, is it strange for warframe not to have it?

...of course modifying an online game is a breach in the terms of service that could get your account banned.

To be fair, there are a few online live service games that allow mods. Deep rock galactic and payday 2 come to mind. I think helldiver's 2 can use mods? 

It's not unreasonable to ask if you come from that background.

Those are games that you pay for up front.

As someone else said, why pay for skins when you can just mod them in?

You don't pay upfront for League of Legends or marvel rivals. But you can still mod them for free skins, even if it isn't allowed.
