I wrote this little note on my website on the feeling of purchasing a DRM-free game from GOG. Now what I wonder, not knowing much about GOG - why isn’t GOG larger than it is, what’s the catch? Because this experience was rad.

      To me Steam has too many features, and sometimes they would re-enable themselves. Also hardware id and required sign in (GOG has this issue too), required DRM and proprietary software just to install games, micro transactions, poor customer service and mediocre refund policy.

      Steam too does business with China more and more as well though it seems it has not affected west much. And Valve would crunch just like the rest of gaming industry if they had to work on new games and didn’t have their #1 position with Steam. Again not a fan of CDPR or GOG either, but much better option IMO.
