It looks like the modding community is more vital to the success of Steam titles than many may have thought, with The End is Nigh reporting record sales since the inclusion of the Steam Workshop feature for the title.

Reported by game programmer Tyler Glaiel on Twitter, the title enjoyed a wealth of new sales since adding support for the modding community.

With the title proving the success that can be achieved when developers and publishers embrace mods rather than shun them, could we see far more mod support for titles in future?

I certainly hope so!
