So, the question must be weighed on by you. It’s cleaner and there are just more recourses for a modded.”

One mod developer from the Steam forums stated, “As a mod author the steam workshop just makes the process way easier.

This means downloading off GitHub can create additional headaches as you may be downloading out-of-date mods that the developer forgot to update and there will now be compatibility issues with the current game patch. But it depends on the mod developer as not all want to do the extra work and upload their mod to multiple directory libraries – most tend to just still with the Steam Workshop. Some Rimworld mod developers do choose to have their mods available on GitHub too which provides an option for players who don’t own the game on Steam, even if it may be more effort for them to download and compile the mod.
This can still be cumbersome though, as many players tend to have upwards of 100 mods installed, and trying to coordinate manually just becomes too labor intensive than auto-updating via the Steam Workshop. There is a mod manager called RimPy that is available on Github for installation. There are ways around missing out on using the Steam Workshop, however. The only major issue with purchasing Rimworld on Epic Games is missing out on the easy access to installing mods via the Steam Workshop. And I got to say, I am now completely for modding Rimworld and understand why so many do! Modding Rimworld on Epic Games I started out with some basic quality of life mods to make colony management a little easier but soon began installing gameplay-changing mods to spice things up. I am usually a basic gamer who stays away from modding, but my enjoyment of Rimworld and the urge to change the gameplay up with more complexity and depth has made me plunge into the modding community head first.
If modding is not an interest to you then Epic Games makes clear sense to purchase Rimworld allowing you to save $10 of the listing price. However, again, the only difference is the ease of modding capability. The content available is identical between both game versions. Whether purchasing on Epic Games or Steam, Rimworld base games and expansions are the same. Adding either DLC expansion, Rimworld: Royalty or Rimworld: Ideology, will further expand the game for countless of hours to be added making replayability indefinite. This is a great opportunity for those on a budget to obtain Rimworld, which can easily give you hundreds of hours of entertainment with the base game alone. The cheapest way of getting Rimworld is on Epic Games using a promotion coupon (often $10 off any game over $15) for any game during a sales event.
