That cuts into Bethesda's paid re-release.
It really really really doesn't.
We can already see it with stuff like the Beamdog remasters. People insist that it is totally better to play BG2 with these five mods, that launcher hack, etc. And everyone except for the usual suspects just say "Buy the Beamdog release. It has almost everything you want and is zero effort".
Also, the mere existence of a fan project (that will never release in a satisfactory manner...) shows that Bethesda is super mod friendly and blah blah blah.
How does it not? It is the same game map, same missions, even the same character names. You just know the corporate bros would hate an alternative to their paid remaster that is basically the same thing.
Yes but they definitely don't wanna piss off the fan base... Again.
