Do you like the idea of Skyrim mods, but are still a little intimated by the idea of finding and installing them? When Bethesda launches the Skyrim Creation Kit in January, which will give everyone access to the development tools used to make The Elder Scrolls V, the current plan is to integrate the mods produced by the community into Steam Workshop.

What does that mean? Mods will then be listed on Steam and will be searchable, rateable and easily installed. As the Bethesda blog describes:

"The Creation Kit will bundle your mod and upload it to the Workshop, where everyone can browse, rate, and flag mods for download. You'll be able to do this from any web device, including your smartphone. Like a live Netflix queue, when you fire up Skyrim, mods you flagged will be automatically downloaded and installed."

Cool. Not that it was difficult to install them anyways. I wonder if they need to be approved...

I hope they do a good job implementing this. It could make things so awesome. Of course, I have a feeling this could be easily limited to just plugins at first. Would be great to see texture mods and all integrated though.
