There are a lot of paid mods for the original AC, so I expect that will be part of it. However, I do think that there are two other reasons for the devs to want to host a platform of their own:

  • Being able to remove content ripped from other games, which will help keep them out of trouble
  • Giving users the option to automatically download the mods necessary to join a multiplayer game

Yeah, but requiring payment for a mod is the modder's decision for AC. For AC EVO, I'm concerned Kunos is going to make that their decision.
