Do mods and "cheats" impact trophies?

Apologies in advance if this is the wrong community.

I’ve just returned to the game for the first time since 2017 after downloading the next-gen update. I’m a bit of a “trophy hunter”, but I’m also intrigued by mods and quick codes for the Bethesda games (I was a Skyrim fanatic). Will mods or “cheats” impact my ability to earn trophies?

If so, I’ll wait until I have the platinum and then try it.

Thanks. This looks like it’s for PC, though. Apologies, I wrongly assumed talking about “trophies” would’ve implied I was talking about PlayStation. My bad.

It's been a while, but I'm pretty sure that saves with mods couldn't get achievements. I'm Xbox, but I'd be surprised if PS was different.

You are correct but almost every game on PC where mods disable achievements will have a mod that enabled achievements.

Thanks, it’s probably not worth the risk. Perhaps I’ll finish the game first and then revisit mods.
