Anyone know of a/any alternative(s) to Steam.

[Kobold]

I am just curious what game manager do you use and how do you find it compares to steam. What is does worse then steam. Is it better in any way, etc.

[RGX12]

There are plenty of places to buy games. I'm not going to list any here as it probably violates Steam's TOS, but go ahead and use your favorite search engine.

Steams TOS says no advertising, but I am clearly asking you. Therefore they have no reason to get upset.

Do they have something similar to the Steam Workshop?

Nope
You have to get your mods the old fashioned way with them

EA's client and Ubisoft's client don't support any modding for any of their games. With GOG you're free to modify your files directly as you please.
