Big changes are here.

My Account is the heart of your GOG.com experience. It's the one place that's 100% yours, and the place you always go to download your games and manage the entire library.
Starting today, your My Account is completely new - remade and redesigned from scratch to better support our growing library of games and many of your biggest requests. Aside from every usability fix we could think of, we've also introduced brand new tools to keep your library organised, and new social features to stay in touch with your friends.

The list of new features is long, but you can see the whole thing on our forums. The most important highlights include:

--Support for friends lists and chat.
--Shared wishlists.
--Advanced filtering and custom tags for your library.
--A new, detailed order history.
--Accessible game changelogs.

We're sure that these new changes will greatly improve your overall user experience on GOG.com, and we can't wait to hear what you think on the wishlist and right here in the comments!
It's not so bad. If only I could access the General Discussion again...

I don't like the changes in the shelf.
I prefered the boxes visualistaion on the shelf instead of "tales" or whatever it is now. It was oldschool and matched the gog profile.
Also I don't like that the shelf takes 4 pages now, that I have to click through instead of having one long shelf (or list - whatever).

Huinehtar: Finally the official developers' number for patches !

Thanks !

But, I haven't seen much of the new library, is the dark theme missing ?
Since themes are completely different from the old library, they haven't yet been added, I remember someone saying a few will be added later though.

Maighstir: Has P1na shared the list with you? I haven't shared mine at all yet, and if I try to go to https://www.gog.com/u/Maighstir/wishlist when not logged in, I also get a 404.
I assumed he has because when hoovering over his name there was this option to see the wishlist which was not existing for others. So I assumed it must be because he set it to "share with anyone" and GOG displayed it because of this. Therefore the 404 should not happen. It's not as if I just invented that link. It was presented to me by GOG.

I guess it also might be that he did not share his wishlist with everyone but GOG just falsely displaying it.

Love the extra functionality, but I wish I could have all my games displayed on one page like I used to be able to.

Negative points first:

- GOG, would you please get your alphabetisation right or give us the manual sorting back. It's almost impossible to find certain games when there aren't exact rules about how you handle the game titles (sometimes it's The game title, the next time it's game title, The).

- Please also give us an option to keep the game series together and in order of release. Taking Blackwell games for example the order at the moment is Blackwell Convergence (part three), Blackwell Deception (part four), Blackwell Epiphany, The (part 5), Blackwell Unbound (part two) and The Blackwell Legacy (part 1) is somewhere else on the shelf (because of The). How exactly does that make sense???

- About the pagination: I hate it!!! I can understand that it is nice for some people with large collections and slow or unstable internet connection or with old computers. But please give us a choice. When you said that the default setting will be 100 games per page, I didn't think that it will be the only setting available.

- Tags for movies and games shouldn't be the same ones. A tag like "feature film" or "documentary" makes a lot of sense for the movie section, but is useless for the games. Please give us different sets of tags for each section.

- I want the original cover arts and boxes for the games back. The store graphics might look nice, but the boxes gave you the feeling of a real collection (and not of browsing a store). Besides that the original cover art is part of the history of the games and should be there.

- Old PMs are missing. I really hope you wiull import them to the new section (like you aid you would).


Some positive points:

- Shared wishlists are great (especially for big sales)!

- Order history is a very helpful feature (especially when you have to deal with support) and the possibility to search for unredeemed gift codes is great!

- The possibility to tag games is nice (but it doesn't compensate for the loss of manual sorting)
nice update



suggestions:

option to print out the receipts if possible also as printable version and if possible print all or per order cause otherwise it will be a lot of paging before we can print these one by one.


galaxy is a client/tool
maybe ad a tab where all tools/client software can be put, cause these are not games, i dont know if its added to game total now, but yesterday it added to the total of games, this might be confusing at first sight.
Movies have their own place and so should all non games aswell.

Suppose many extra non games should be needed, then the number of games would rise drastically
Are the boxes still available somewhere?
I hope your plans for shelf skins include a "shelfless" skin. Now that you've ditched the tall game boxes, some grey boxes sitting on a wooden shelf honestly doesn't look aesthetically pleasing.

I'd also like to see user-defined sets of filters that you can set as the default view for the library (e.g. whenever you open your library, the RPG/Windows/English/SP/Backlog set is loaded).

Nice job with everything else.

You're probably right, I don't get a "show wishlist" in your hover menu.
EDIT: PaterAlf's wishlist works, and I get the link in their hover menu.
EDIT2: Also tinyE. Do P1na have any entries in their wishlist? (I'll ask him)

I am not too annoyed with that, because I like to manage my library offline, but I was a bit surprised when I looked at the library on my account.

JudasIscariot: Go to a game, click "More" and you'll see a "Changelog" menu choice if a given game has one :)

If you have Broken Age or Shadow Warrior 2013, you should see an example :)

MasodikTiasma: Changelogs don't appear in Galaxy, though, only in the browser verion of the library.
They'll be there soon enough :) Give it time, please :)

+1 this.... I am one who never threw away my boxes... don't want to here either.

Oh, yes, now you say it, this is indeed terrible. Please GOG, make it uniform - one way or the other but never both. Write the system so that in future titles following the other form (whichever you choose) are outright rejected.
I'd like to see a way to share libraries, and to have total order amounts listed in order history, depending on the tags selected.

Also, right now there is a problem where all my orders older than a certain date are listed as 'free':
