I think far and away the single most impactful thing to be done is steam workshop integration. Which, to my understanding, is fairly easy to set up.
I often show my friends an interesting mod but they are too afraid of their steamapps folder (or any semi deep diving on their PC, for that matter) to set them up. This would also look mighty sexy on the DLC steam store page, people love steam workshop and, IMO, it would definitely draw a few new players to the game. And for the ol’ crustys who do it the old fashion way (like myself), well we can keep on doing it that way. But workshop definitely fits in with the “lets expand GD to a broader audience” approach that the DLC seems to be taking.
Once again, the search function does not give me a lot of insight:
There has definitely been some hoopla about it on the steam forums, which I lurk from time to time :D.
The past few months people have been saying Crate confirmed no workshop support, I haven’t been able to find this however.
Crate are you listening? Please bless this thread!
This is a really neat idea, I think it would make sense within a “frequent content pack” model that has been touched on in this thread.
Edmund McMillen did something vaguely similar to this with the recent Antibirth expansion to Binding of Isaac, which started as (still is?) a mod. And god damn, is it awesome. Gotta love BoI
