Neurus_Ex: Discussion there kinda sucks if you try to complain anything about Steam. People seems more interested on talk about how steam is better because Steamworks instead of talking about the actual problem.
There are ways to download stuff from the workshop for most of the games. The only case I've seen is Starbound, and it was by decission of the developer. (btw, the workshop is a great example on how dangerous is closing an ecosystem. Is really comfortable to use, yeah, but you are basically fucking everyone else).
I noticed. People are talking about how great the Steamworks API is, which I am not buying into, given we have our Galaxy APIs and how they've been evolving and integrated more and more. Several a game implemented it, why are they holding back?
I'd still rather not have
anything on the Workshop and for it to die. If there is on area that the DRM-free movement is sorely lacking in, it's mods, and thank you Valve for all the trouble.
