Except I don't want steam on every computer. That shit just asking me to update is fucking annoying. My next laptop will be a steam computer but not my current one.
you can download a game and then not use steam ever again, at least with the drm free games.If Steam had functionality to download the games(that doesn't require Steam running) from the browser, then GOG would be fucking dead to me
It's a bussiness. CDPR tried to tap into the retro gaming scene without realizing gaming isn't like comics or movies, where there's a "culture" to it. Gamers are just consumers. Steam is the paramount system because it offers what people want in that regard. Gamers don't get to discuss aspect ratio or scan quality like the other mention fandoms do. They just want to play games and Steam already covers that. If anything, the only thing retro pc gaming is doing is killing the abandonware community, which while illegal, it's a grassroots affair.Many years ago there was a stretch where my bank wouldn't process payments to GOG because the payments went through Cyprus (known tax evasion/money laundering haven). Guess my bank had more long term wisdom than I did.
Really a shame to see such noble intentions fall by the wayside, to the point where I wonder how sincere they ever were.

Daily reminder this faggy game has less gay shit in it than contemporary triple A rpgs of the day like Fallout 4, Dragon Age Inquisition, and Mass Effect 3.Faggots on steroids released

It is a homoerotic game made by a gay man: https://rpgcodex.net/forums/threads...-tactical-rpg-with-high-end-pixel-art.108808/What exactly is gay in that game? Honestly asking, haven't been following gaming drama lately.
GOG releases censored games at higher prices than other platforms, so not really.GOG is now the premier destination for porn videogame enjoyers.
When you think about it, it's kinda genius. They finally figured out a use case for DRM-free games that makes sense for people born in this century: the ability to play porn games without leaving any evidences behind (online at least).

It's also pretty good.
The whole "big, strong, muscular macho man" aesthetic was taken from the gay world, see Tom of Finland, so yeah, it was pretty gay.It is a homoerotic game made by a gay man: https://rpgcodex.net/forums/threads...-tactical-rpg-with-high-end-pixel-art.108808/What exactly is gay in that game?

By this logic, the entire decade of the 1980s is gay.
It's 2023: everything is gay.Duke Nukem is gay?
Conan is gay?
Tarzan is gay? Well, maybe he likes monkeys.
Arnie movies are gay?
Maybe you're gay because you get a big fucking hard boner for muscle men.
How do I tell the difference between the polish versions of jewish surnames and the normal polish surnames?https://af.gog.com/en/game/we_the_refugees_ticket_to_europe?as=1649904300
Otherwise known as the 'try to kill Europe without firing a shot simulator'.

Steam is willing to accomodate publishers. Steam is unwilling to clearly mark games with online DRM that will one day stop working. You need to put in a lot of work to filter out games that will never drop Denuvo / Ubisoft online authentication - and will be left in broken state on your account - from your Steam wishlist.The gold box games are on Steam now. Slowly but surely the whole reason of being for GOG is fading away... The issue is that Steam is not only big but also willing to accomodate. Ironically, Steam has proven to be a pc first platform much more than GOG ever has.It's only really worth it for the DRM-free part but everything else is awful. The forum software is terrible. The forum users are mostly miserable which reflects the overall state. The GOG team is incompetent and their attitude to everything is probably the worst part of it. They also repeatedly broke promises. The releases can be unsupported, partly broken, pre-(fan)patched etc. Add to that polticial bias (screwing over their Russian and Belarusian users) and the verdict is a definitive negative.I think I've mentioned it before but I'm on the verge of ditching GOG now. It's not worth it outside a few DOS releases and all, but yeah, I don't really feel like making another purchase in that site.
