Nexus and Workshop differences :o)

[shall1976]

A few thoughts-

 

 

Nexus has a better search function - at the moment true, but SW has just launched and has already seen upgrades.

Steam being down - I have not experienced a single outage in Steam in memory, and I use it daily. Depends on location or time of day I suppose?

More selection of mods - true right now, but see above

 

Community is better at Nexus - debatable. While almost certainly going to be true because the enthusiast community here, there is no mistaking that this site has its share of shitheads as well.

 

People would do well to remember that the Nexus family of sites weren't always the level of awesome they are now, but they got better over time. Steam Workshop will continue to evolve as well and I'm sure will be more and more viable. I use both depending on my needs. I love the Nexus mod manager (though it needs some serious love), but I equally love the ease-of-use of SW. Like the OS war, hopefully the competition will drive both to get better features going to benefit the community.

 

Ultimately I will prefer Nexus I think, because we have nudity mods here. http://forums.nexusmods.com/public/style_emoticons/dark/biggrin.gif

the community at nexus is better then the community at steam workshop. sure you do have the occasionally troll and some people who shouldn't comment if they don't have anything to say besides " bump" ,"this", "lol" "etc.

 

As for the support mod authors give their mods,here at nexus its wonderful. 99.9 percent of mod issues I've had with a mod where fixed by the mod authors because they want to make a quality product. While Nexus hasn't always been as great as it is now it had to change and evolve for that to happen. I f steam workshop doesn't change the way they operate then they won't progress and the nexus will remain supreme.... and i'm ok with that. :tongue:
