ChristophWr: I would love to see a feature like on steam where people can add mods to the galaxy launcher. Since there will always be a place for a storefront like gog, now and in 50 years so improving and adding content should be the priority like also to add patches for games so they work on modern systems.
No thanks. Splitting up the formerly open and inclusive modding community into a bunch of competing fragmented tribal fiefdoms each determined to have their own "exclusive" content was toxic enough when Valve did it under the guise of 'convenience'. All a GOG workshop would end up is demanding GOG pump more money (that they don't have) into developing a mostly barren place for half of GOG's customers (it'll almost certainly be "Galaxy exclusive") containing a tiny handful of outdated mods and +80% missing as many modders get increasingly p*ssed off with having to upload every patch / update of every mod 10x over (Steam Workshop and GOG Workshop and Epic Workshop and Microsoft Store workshop and...) instead of 1-2 (Nexus / ModDB). As with game updates, after the novelty has worn off, only the larger stores will get regular updates.
I think people here need to start being serious and accept that GOG simply isn't ever going to be an exact 1:1 clone of Steam, that sold every game, and had every store feature, etc, and was "exactly like Steam" in every way except it was called "Not Steam" when it doesn't and possibly never will have anywhere near the finances, staff or market share to do so. Look at the forum right now - flooded with days old spam due to lack of moderation (some sub-forums have literally + 3 month old spam in). Look at the recent CDN outage reported on 20th July - 9 days later some games like
Blackwell series are still offline. If they don't have the funds / staff to keep on top of the basics they sure as hell don't have it to unnecessarily duplicate everything that's already on Nexus...
