As for the future of the game, my hope is that TFP will build in a mod manager right into the game once it goes gold. I've actually been playing a lot of Farming Simulator 22 lately (leave me alone, I'm an old man) and they have a manager built right into the game and it works (almost) flawlessly. Not only can I browse and install most mods directly within the game, but I can also choose which mods I want to be enabled on a per-save basis.
