honoratoFor those who havent seen it, Garry's (from Garrys Mod) posted his opinion on the matter, hes spot imo.

if the best u can say about paywalls is that you can just ignore them, there's no reason for them to exist
there needs to be something worth actually paying for, for this to be worthwhile. While the idea of the workshop is conducive to shit like this, with autoupdates and stuff, its nothing that NMM didn't already offer for free. If they had started shit like this and had tried to create community mod packs for like $2 or something maybe that'd be more positive who knows.
tbh everything about this is hilariously retarded. who tries to monetize a system of modding that has no sort of digital signing or content protection? im more offended by the shear laziness of the system moreso than the system itself
"Ideally this inspires to donate to the content creators but people will never do that. Shitty situation. "
valve removes donation links from workshop pages now apparently
