Should I buy fallout 4 goty from GOG? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Is there any reason why I shouldn't buy FO4 goty from GOG instead of steam? You can still customize controls perfectly fine and all the mods/expansions still work? It won't play any differently to a steam bought game except it will be in non-steam games?

I know games usually work fine, but I haven't bought a new game from GOG since I got my steamdeck, so I'm nervous.

Exactly, yeah. It’s not super important, like in FO4 idk how helpful it’d be, but it’s a game changer sometimes. I played through Kotor on the Deck by using Steam Input, and made it feel practically native with next to no effort.

Works with non-Steam games as well. I even had community profiles for Diablo 2. You just have to give the game the correct name and it should just work™.

Yeah, fallout isn't that complicated. I've configured a number of keyboard strategy games, so this should be easy compared to those if I go that route. Thanks.
