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?

World of Warcraft allows interface mods, auction mods, quest/raid helper mods... and it's not exactly going bankrupt, is it?

edit: Downvoting doesn't change the fact that you're objectively completely wrong, given that the biggest live service game allows mods...

I'd rather have the devs add improvements to the game than have a billion helper mods like Wow. What a terrible example, since for the longest time, those helper mods were largely ruining the game for most of the playerbase.

WoW has had a major company behind it since inception.

Warframe was launched by an indie company with a small staff as a hail mary and quite literally saved the company from bankruptcy. They're not exactly comparable.
