Workshop is a built-in mod store. Input is controller remapping and emulation (typically used to play older games that don’t support modern controllers, or controllers at all). Remote is exactly what it sounds like (run a game on your powerful PC and stream it to your old laptop or phone).

Those things are the responsibility of the client software, but on all stores except GOG, the client software is also the store client. You can’t (normally) run games without the client. GOG has a client (Galaxy) but it’s nowhere near as advanced as Steam.




None. But since on other stores, running the game is tied to using their platform, they provide extra services to be more appealing, such as cloud saves, achievements, Steam Workshop, Steam Input, Linux support, remote play…


I’m not a Steam fanboy, I’m just sick of GOG being praised as the saviour of gaming in every video game thread on Lemmy.


The secret ingredient is crime.

Games with DRM aren’t on GOG, but games without DRM are on Steam.



I guess the same than between shooting and making a movie. But the term game development is confusing, as it includes more than actual development.


Pros of GOG: ability to download an installer

Cons of GOG: no features, very few games

Pros of Steam: everything

Cons of Steam: making backups of your games is marginally harder than on GOG

I wonder why more people don’t fall for the GOG meme. Truly a mystery.



How many games are y’all installing at once? 825GB is plenty. You can have three 200GB games installed, plus 3 or 4 AAA games with more reasonable disk usage.



Right? Quadrupling the RAM isn’t a minor upgrade. I’m not sure what OP is ranting about.


Wikipedia has a toggle at the top to switch to the previous, inferior version.

Text is much easier to read if it isn’t too wide. Using all the available horizontal space is bad because it makes you move your eyes a lot more.



C’mon, they haven’t done nothing. They asked Nintendo to put Banjo and Kazooie in Smash!



“It’s just horse armor, bro, what’s the worse than could happen?”


DOOM clones weren’t literal clones called HELL where you play as the Hell Man killing demons with the Large Heckin’ Pistol.


An endless online humans vs machines prequel, basically Helldivers, would have been great.


Horizon is such wasted potential. 2 games in 8 years, and a LEGO spinoff. Where is Horizon 3? Where is Horizon Warriors? Where is the Horizon RPG?






You should have received an email with a receipt if you did sign. In doubt, sign again; signing twice will invalidate the second signature but not the first (confirmed by EU staff).


At least we will have an official position, instead of the legal void we’re currently in.


Correct, although that would be technically illegal but no one will check. However, bots and trolls who spammed faked addresses will most certainly have their signatures invalidated.


This is a EU initiative but you’re free to create one in the US.


Not in every country. In about half of them, you only need to provide a name, address and date of birth.


If you’re in the EU, you should still sign; extra signatures will be useful if it turns out some of them are invalid.


He wasn’t a game dev apparently. He worked in security, and there are rumors saying he actually was a WoW moderator.


This game would greatly benefit from a PC port. It barely reaches 15FPS at times on N64, it’s damn near unplayable.


I hope the input lag will be faithful to the original!


And registration hasn’t worked for years. Pointing this out in this community will earn you downvotes. Nexus Mods is completely unusable trash.





Super Circuit is basically SMK but better. It even includes all tracks from SMK.


Activision is sitting on free money by not porting Nitro Fueled to PC.




How do I download anything from Nexus Mods?
I want to try out Fallout New Vegas after having watched the TV show, and beforeiplay.com recommends I use a few QoL mods, in particular one for higher resolution screens (I'm playing on a 4K monitor). So I lookup "fallout mtui", end up on [the mod's page](https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/34902), hit download... and am greeted with a screen telling me I need to sign up for an account. I obviously do not want to create an account on such a [shady website](https://www.nexusmods.com/news/14178), so I tried using a throwaway email... rejected (of course). I then said "fuck it" and tried registering with my real email address... also rejected. "E-mail address is not valid". Well, it is, this is my primary e-mail address, has been for more than 10 years, and I've successfully used it to register on dozens of websites, including Amazon, eBay, various banks, Steam... I found several Reddit posts about this issues, dating back to several years to a few months. Apparently, registration on Nexus Mods has been broken for very long, with no fix on the horizon. So it seems it is impossible to download anything from there. Is there a mirror somewhere? Or are all these mods no longer possible to access?
