It is not bad, depending on the game's implementation - but like Vortex and any other installers it comes with too many downsides for the modding community.

But then again, there are some very good games which does implement it in a remarkable good way. Just missing the payout you get elsewhere.

Thankfully will never happen for this game. Nexus and the in game mod stuff are far better

one thing i hate is you can't control versioning or variant version on steam workshop. and also no beta testing. if the modder decide to update mods and there any bug, your game just auto break or brick because steam workshop auto update it

i much prefer 3rd party one that i can manual control versioning. on steam if modder want to do any versioning they have to create a new mod name Beta. and for end user there is no easy way to say "i want to roll back to previous mod version because latest mod break my save".

beside that there is just too many issue with steam workshop where it is just very limited and issues they never fix since forever

Not being able to control updates is my #1 complaint about Steam Workshop. In fact, I make it a point not to install any mods from Steam Workshop. Ever. And it's not a deal breaker because I've never seen a mod on Steam Workshop that I really wanted anyway.

True. I used some Workshop mods for Warhammer 2 and they worked really well. Never had any issues with them.

Whats wrong with Nexus? I have been modding Skyrim for years without issues. Of course I use Mod Organizer 2 which is far superior to Nexus Mod Manager.

A good chunk of us are lazy and like how Steam automates mod management.

Because once you get a mod that auto-updates and breaks your game, you will cry.

Well, if we could rely on wrong mod versions for your game not breaking your save, I might agree...But we can't. So in the end it might be a nice goal to get mods automated, but e are a long way away from that, so you really should learn to manage your mods...
