    We need a Linux GOG Galaxy, not another mod marketplace. This seems like it’s in preparation for Skyblivion.

    source

      Heroic works better than Galaxy does in Windows. They should just pay the Heroic devs for their work and make that their official launcher.

        Heroic works until it doesn’t.

        they already do! (sorta)

        if you buy games through heroic, the heroic devs get a percentage of the sale

    So like the steam workshop? Cool.

    source
    • REDACTED@infosec.pub ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Yes, but most of those games don’t have steam workshop.

  • Dremor@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    I’m definitively gonna keep a look on that. Hope it will work with Heroic and tge Steam Deck.

    I know for a fact whoever developed the GoG launcher isn’t capable of adding this in.

    Source: half of the connectors to other game services don’t work, and they haven’t bothered to make their Mac app function in literally years (and if asked about this they tell you to “use the website”).

    source
    • Don_alForno@feddit.org ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Even fewer people game on Mac than on Linux (judging by the Steam survey). I bet it’s not that they can’t they just don’t care.

    When did “modding a game” shift from “creating new mods” to “applying mods”?

    source
    • pyre@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      I’m pretty sure it’s always been both. They’re both modifying the game.

      Idk but it makes it hard to find modding (creating mods) ressources online

    Why not just cooperate with nexus mods? Their new app (yes, still a deep beta) works quite well

    source
    • HollowNaught@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Because nexus mods is woeful, and their gradual enshittification isn’t a good sign

      source
      • shadowedcross@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        What examples can you give of their enshittification?

        I didn’t notice it going bad. What’s going on?

      Still using NMM. I will never switch to Vortex (mostly because my list of mods is insane)

      source
      • INeedMana@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        I mean the new one, not Vortex

    Nice to see some competition in this space. Steam dropped the ball by not getting fallout London.

      Steam dropped the ball by not getting fallout London.

      How is that Steam’s fault?

  • FireIced@lemmy.super.ynh.fr ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    I guess good thing, but what about improving GOG initially? There are many things to add and improve

    source
    • Red_October@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      So they added one thing, but you’re complaining they haven’t added literally every other improvement you can imagine?

      source
      • FireIced@lemmy.super.ynh.fr ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        It’s not every other improvements, it’s basic features requested for years.

        Dumb things like being able to edit your reviews or delete them without mailing the support. Having the ability to download old versions of offline installers instead of being forced to use their app…

        source
  • FireIced@lemmy.super.ynh.fr ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Meh. Forces you to have the game on GOG. It’s blocking mods behind a platform and account paywall, just like Steam Workshop

  • kurcatovium@lemm.ee ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    While I appreciate increased visibility for such (often awesome) mods, I kind of doubt good guys at gog can manage to ship actual versions of them.
