So… Is this a good thing? Bad thing? Gut reaction says that probably not the greatest for GOG, being detached from a huge publisher like CD Projekt probably isn’t great for a niche marketplace. In their faqs it states that GOG had a strong year financially but they would of course bill it that way. The question about why the new owner did so also just sounded disingenuous.
Interested to see where this goes from here. While I love gog and am a patron, their Linux support leaves a lot to be desired. The sole fact that cloud saves are such a pain to get working has led me to switch back to steam. I hope with these changes they can maybe get some support on Linux.
What an unnecessarily exclusionary take.
They can build a new platform to sell current games in a DRM-free situation. Good Old Games should stick specifically to old games.
and what purpose would that serve lol
dividing resources and confusing people just for what? so you can feel good having a store with the 3 retro pc games that haven’t been gobbled up by microsoft, ea or atari?
if you only want to see retro games, do i have the button for you!
Why, given “Good Old Games” is no longer the name of the store?
Meh
