I really doubt freeware is going to be decreased. Also hope not. If games like GTA which are tedious to mod get awesome things for free, in this sim with the SDK and a wider audience should be easier, like in past editions, and also awesome. 
 

I remember using an A320 family pack from rikooo on P3D and worked really well. Can’t imagine if we get the A320 family at MSFS. 

Something to keep in mind is that it has a public SDK, sure it's been standard for the likes of FSX for a long time now. But that's pretty remarkable in a era where generally modding isn't as easy or encouraged as it used to be. Even other modern sims such as Train Sim World & IL-2 don't have big modding communities despite their predecessors having rather sizable ones. MSFS' modding scene probably won't be the biggest by any means, but I do expect it to be miles healthier than most modern titles. Personally I think anyone who really likes modding should really consider supporting MSFS, perhaps other sims, or even games might take note if MSFS does well enough.
