Why are most STALKER 2 mods on nexus and not on moddb?
I don't want to ask this on the STALKER 2 forum due to the "fans" there. I already blocked dozens of people, maybe close to 100 on that forum. They can't handle any critique. If you don't want this thread here moderators, I guess you can just delete it.

I hate nexus. I refuse to pay for mods.

"But you don't have to pay for them."

Please tell me how I could go about installing a massive modpack similar to GAMMA or EFP by using nexus WITHOUT paying. Spend dozens of hours clicking on each individual mod? I installed the entirety of GAMMA (400+ mods) in about 1 hour. Most of this 1 hour was automated. Just had to click at the start. Ready to play. Tweaked the pack for another 2 hours by enabling and disabling certain mods. I mainly pointed out GAMMA due to the sheer volume of stuff you get.

Nexus has plenty of Skyrim and Cyberpunk modpacks where the authors clearly recommend you do NOT attempt to manually install. And just buy nexus premium.

Other great mods I played and enjoyed if you wanna go "GAMMA sucks get out noob" and prove I am a man of culture. Autumn Aurora, Lost Fallout Overhaul, Gunslinger, Complete (meh mods, not great), Lost Alpha, SOUP (this one was just weird), Atmosfear.

Is this the future for the STALKER 2 modding scene? Nexus?

Never liked it either, for many other games than these.

But then again that website is fairly known for having mods for the most mod-unfriendly games, at least from my experience.
why are you complaining here?

Because they actually try to keep the mods safe as opposed to Moddb. Nowadays people want that.

I explained that in the very first sentence. You know what? If you won't bother to read anything that I write, I won't bother to read anything that YOU write. Blocked. Bye.

Safe how? They are mods. They are free. You can't exactly steal them for profit. People ALWAYS credit the authors when making mod packs anyway. Maybe except some small completely unknown mod packs.

Clout? Is this about internet clout? Use an inferior more inconvenient lower download speed service because muh clout? Is that what you mean by "safe"? So people have to read the author's name each time instead of a credits.txt file?

Or do you mean the ads? You get ads when clicking on each individual mod on nexus. The whole site feels like an adware virus. That is safer and better for the owners of the site.

That didn't answer my question and your response didn't answer my question. You're farming for clown awards in an irrelevant forum that you don't care about.

i think he means "safe" as in malware?

though i been to ModDB and it seems completely safe for the most part. at least when you know what your searching for on there. Vanilla UI Plus for new vegas is hosted on their instead of nexus mods which is why i use ModDB to some extent over Nexus. though

as for Nexus its because its getting more popular over the years and has grown exponentially so naturally it makes sense why most mods will be hosted there primarily. ModDB isn't as big as nexus mods i think in comparison. Nexus hosts lots and lots of mods.

Because the people who made the mods prefer using Nexus.
