Nexus Mods gives their answer on what they think about Steam charging for Mods and how they'll handle it.
Blindfolding myself and clicking a Steam page at random would serve me better recommendations than Steam’s algorithm
Hmm, not sure I agree with that. The recommendations I get are usually pretty good, but then again I have pretty large library of games on Steam and hundreds of them in my wish list, along with lots of curators I follow for it to build recommendations off of. On occasion it will throw me a random FIFA game or something I've never bought or shown interest in, but mostly its decent IMO.
Dive into the best Metroidvania games on Steam, from hidden gems to top-rated classics, and embark on unforgettable adventures!
Players can pay to edit their character, resurrect the dead and other actions.
Yet Helldivers 2 gets a pass? Y’know a GotY contender by the name of RE4 had them and so does Devil May Cry V. The funny thing is I enjoyed both of those games thoroughly without having to buy a single microtransaction.
What I do consider a valid complaint is not being able to start a new game or being able to edit your character. That’s kind of a seriously baffling decision, but then I think how I played Dragon’s Dogma 1 and I never edited my character and I just did a 100% playthrough on a single file and didn’t start a NG since. So, I don’t think these are really going to impact me, but I can see how it will others.
I was going to pay full price to support this game because I've been waiting for it for forever but I think I'll wait until I get it for free from Epic or a Humblebundle monthly.
I am not defending Capcom, as I am not a fan of MTX in single player games. I do however belive they were open to reviewers about having MTX in their game. The reviewers just decided to leave that part out. Which is very disingenuous. There are some companies that get away with these things. Image if this was done by EA, Ubisoft, or even Activision? I am positive those defending Capcom, would have had their pitchforks ready if the companies listed above did this
nexus is preparing for the coming shitstorm while valve has yet to make another move i wanna see where this is all headed guess i will have to wait for now.
Good point to stand on, So far it seems like the only people in a uproar over this are those who make no mods at all but simply want free things.
Apparently a lot of people prefer Nexus over Steam Workshop for Skyrim mods. I can see why.
Here's where I'm at. Lets say i buy some mods. Then the devs update their gasme and that update breaks those mods (mods no longer work). The modders of the mods I have DONT have to update their mod. I now paid for something that no longer works. Thats not OK with me. So because of this I'm not ok with this new policy.
what an absolute joke in one day valve managed to destroy a community, I hope to god PC master race are smart enough to completely laugh at this idea and cause it to fail.
