Honestly I'm a bit "meh" on this. Currently I play on 360 and I've put in thousands of hours playing the game. The mod option, however limited it may be, is interesting and would possibly put a bit of new life into the game, depending on what mods are available for console.
Will I eventually pick this up? Probably. I'll be getting a PS4 very soon and already have a long list of games to play on it so it will be awhile until I pick this up. Really it depends on how far out TES 6 is and if another open world fantasy game comes out between now and then that scratches the same itch.
Maybe 2018 if we are still waiting for TES 6 and a comparable game of high fantasy hasn't been made, then yeah I will probably become nostalgic for that feeling and will pick this up.

Make no mistake, paid mods WILL happen, and there are quite a few modders who wouldn't mind being paid for their hard work. With that said, remember that the gaming community freaked out about paid mods in the not-too-distant past. IMO, Bethesda will have to slowly break-in the community to the idea of paid mods. They'll likely do this by showcasing tremendously exceptional mods, which will be behind an inexpensive pay wall. This way, you'll have the choice to buy them or stay with the free mods. Slowly, the number of mods behind a pay-wall will increase, and the number of free mods will decrease.
