It only currently works for Steam copies on Linux AFAIK, which isn't great but hopefully they'll open it up for other libraries eventually.

I know this isn't the same as it's windows version that just works with all the games. But the fact this is here and with support for things like Red script is a game changer. I just finished my last playthrough all vanilla. But man do I wanna be able to use the altiers for custom clothes and stuff

Oh nice! Does the fact that it’s an appimage mean I don’t need developer mode?

I don't see how this will replace Vortex if they keep going down this route of game-specific implementations.

It could sure be a good mod manager, but not a replacement for Vortex. It's taking ages to support what, 5 titles?

I haven't read up on it much but I imagine the plan is to eventually support everything like Vortex, but going game by game like this allows them to test different features without worrying about compatibility with a million different games.

Seems promising! Pretty cool indeed!
