Yeah it's mandatory for the Fallout 4 GECK but other than that you need not use it.

You do need a account though if you want to use the in-game mod browser added in the 1.5 update but you can still use Nexus and add plugins manually, this is mostly for convenience and of course also for console users, can finally get the unofficial patches now, heh.
(Though I doubt Bethesda will allow absolutely everything to be uploaded to their mod section - https://mods.bethesda.net/#en/workshop/fallout4 )

(EDIT: Bethesda also has a forum for the GECK here - https://community.bethesda.net/community/fallout/fallout-4/creation-kit-beta )


EDIT: Personally I wouldn't use the in-game mod browser to "hotload" mods, there's a couple of engine bugs causing cell resets for one thing and unloading and loading data on the fly like that can't be very stable for larger modifications but eh I haven't really used it much myself so I might be wrong.

can you blame them after seeing how steam brainwashed people into defending it's DRM and it's monopoly?

If I saw people saying "not on steam, no buy", i'd want a piece of that cake too if I was in the games industry Very Happy

bring on more of these I say. it's a great way to devalue game prices. just look at games that have uplay keys and steam keys. uplay keys can cost up to 50% less even on release, let alone down the line.
