I’m not a fan of built-in mod managers. They’re just walled gardens that the devs have a monopoly on. It’s the biggest gripe I have about Factorio

Only downside is you have to install it for each game you want to mod,

Hopefully this means it defaults to a portable deployment. IMO if you’re using a lot of mods it’s simpler to have a dedicated install per game.

Granted, part of my setup is to toss all of the patchers and extra tools like DynDoLOD inside my MO folder. It allows me to just copy/paste the whole directory if I want to create mod lists for friends

Does it have collection support

There’s Wabbajack. But I don’t use collections as a lot of the modding community has some really weird preferences. There’s tons of mods that a lot of collections use to make Skyrim more like Ubisoft games, which personally makes me mentally gag to think about.

and can you download mods from in the app?

I didn’t know this was a thing and I honestly don’t get why this would be an advantage over just using a browser. I often compare multiple similar mods before picking one to add, and I don’t see how Vortex could beat a browser for that.

Well, after watching the United States trick liberals into being upset at Russia

Yeah, none of your comment is worth listening to after this. Slava Ukraini!

Mod Organizer 2, which has supported Linux for years

Or just pirate and emulate Nintendo games. They’re such scumbags that they make piracy morally correct

Games have also gotten massively cheaper due to distribute due to digital downloads being the most common, and they’re making way more sales due to gaming having a much larger audience.

The main reason these games have ridiculously inflated budgets are because execs are pushing for more management, which in turn push for oversized teams making design-by-committee out of fear of making something people don’t like. The gamin industry doesn’t get to make excuses anymore. Them being unable to reign in their development budgets aren’t our problem. They need to figure out how to offer games at a lower price, because they’re going to run out of customers willing to pay otherwise

Tbh, most AAA games are ass nowadays

Works for me

Isn’t that half of the bible?

Just go to bed dude, none of your comments today are any good.

That hasn’t been a problem for races for over a century

Newsflash: Europe exists

Many of us don’t get a choice when it comes to work computers.

Then just switch to Linux on your personal computer. Seriously, it’s as if you saw that single “gotcha” argument and decided to repeat it with no thought whatsoever

*Honk ceaselessly

Which is just frustrating because there’s some real improvements in mays of their usual systems elsewhere in the game. The I think the persuasion mechanics are a real step up from previous games and I’m amazed the system hasn’t been ported into Skyrim. They got flight mechanics to actually work in the Creation engine. Zero-G and low gravity works great. Gunplay and combat is even more improved over Fallout 4 (though it’s an incremental improvement over the revolutionary leap made with Fallout 4).

Imo, Starfield is mainly lacking in only a few (though critical) things. They need more than 4 fleshed-out companions, and have them for different factions; there’s a couple of NPC’s that I expected to become companions. Since they insistend on having procedurally generated content, they needed to add way more pieces to their tilesets and, more importantly, have an algorithm to stitch things together and have some actual variety. As it is right now, you get the same exact facilities copy-pasted as whole spaces with no variation. And they needed to not force you into the main storyline, or at least pull a Fallout: New Vegas and have multiple paths through the main storyline.

There’s a lot of good bones to be had in Starfield, which just makes the cock-ups more disappointing since they’ll lead to those imprpvements being abandoned

Everything has a shelf life, which means that there’s non-renewable power generation that was decommissioned to offset that. Please stop being a mindless doomer, especially in the uplifting news community

There were smaller updates after 1.6 for months, all the way into December
