I don't understand how this is legal action? If the project does not contain copyrighted material itself, then how in earth is CD Projekt Red able to take it down? A modder should be able to decide themselves if they charge money or not for a mod, as long as no copyrighted (or other protected) material is included.

DMCA notices are just a strongly letter from an attorney, that they record sending to you for when they really sue you should they choose to do that
