  Sorry, I probably should have included that.

  I’ve been modding games and making mods for games since before Nexus or SteamWorkshop or anything even existed… I guess people just genuinely have never even heard of moddb these days, like how gamefaqs is an ‘ancient relic’ or w/e.

    Up until now I thought moddb was all that existed.

      I also just found this:

      github.com/loicreynier/awesome-modding

      basically just a huge compendium of everywhere all kinds of mods for anything are hosted, that’ll give you an idea of how the game modding scene is actually rather dispersed, not only monopolized by nexusmods.

      not sure if its in this huge list but:

      fpsbanana

      is another one i am quite familiar with, been going strong with mostly source mods… possibly since the late 90s, at the least the early 2000’s.
