People on reddit are absolutely losing their minds over the lack of steam workshop support, but if Paradox wants stuff to be available to console users and all PC users, it’s really the only option.
My concern is how it’ll interact with Steam Proton on Linux, and just generally if their mods platform will be any good.
My experience with modding games while using Proton on Linux (without Workshop support): It’s atrocious, cumbersome and even outright does not work for some games because communities tend to build a Mod Manager (that then other mods start to hard depend on) that does not work in that environment at all. I’m at the point where I don’t even bother trying it out if there’s not workshop support.
Paradox’s first party titles generally have excellent Linux support and have for a long time. Can’t swear that will be the case here but overall they’re one of the best publishers for Linux.

From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it’s gaming you can probably discuss it here!

Yeah, Bethesda games are the worst about this.
