If you don't mind crossing over to the steam discussion section, it shouldn't matter if you buy the epic version. What you won't have on epic is the same gaming community to interact with on the epic app. Also, many steam users, myself included, buy most of their games here, so they'll use the steam forums.

From what I've read, you can mod either the steam or epic versions of RDR, as the Rockstar Launcher program doesn't inspect the files for changes. You're welcome to mod at your leisure if you choose not to buy the game, or any other Rockstar title, directly from their store.

I don't mind opening up Steam to use the community hub. Thanks.

Manually installed a skip intro mod and now it won't launch. Guess you can't mod the Epic Games Launcher version.

My mistake. It looks like the Rockstar launcher finds a way to bypass the epic client and perform its system verification subroutine, restoring any modified files to their default configurations. Thanks for sharing this experience with us. :steamthumbsup:
