Do you have a source for that? The only communication I've seen from a ND employee certainly gives off a very different impression.

Very much so, yes.

Now this is awesome. I have bookmarked far too many articles for later read, and totally forgot about them later.

Easy link to access the blog on the top menu would be great. Also - it would be great if the "News" section gets proper, longer history, instead of the last few articles. AND moving it to the top.

Have any of these blog posts been paid for by the Publishers? If so, could GOG add some kind of "Sponsored" tag to them?

I second this, I immediately tried to subscribe and found it doesn't have any obviously accessible RSS feed, and I couldn't find one mentioned in the HTML source either... pretty hard to follow it if there's no way to no when there is no content.

So that's what GOG was missing to finally overthrow Steam. A blog.

Come on, dude. Be more positive :P

If it's one of the many steps, we should encourage this.

I agree with the other posts about it being a link on a main page and applying an RSS feed.

GOG might had stood for Good Old games, but c'mon, not THAT old... :P

Who's going to follow a blog without an RSS feed? How? That's not even technically possible. By visiting it every day and trying to remember what he actually read already and what is new (if anything)? This is really a joke. Come on, GOG, you can do better, I trust you.

And when you're at it, fix the RSS feed for your homepage as well:

[code]
XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
Location: https://www.gog.com/en/news/feed
Line Number 17, Column 64:
<title>Release: <b>Terraforming Mars - Hellas & Elysium</b></title>
---------------------------------------------------------------^
[/code]

Also, create per-language RSS feeds. This is not rocket science. This is allowing your audience to consume your messages.

1. Instead of having GOG staff themselves be the ones to choose the questions that are put to interview guests, GOG should instead ask GOG's customers, prior to the interview, to submit questions that they want to have asked of that particular guest.

Then when GOG conducts the interview, GOG should ask those questions that come directly from GOG's customers.

2. On a similar note, GOG should ask GOG's customers exactly what specific topics they want to see featured in the blog, and also what specific guests they want to see GOG try to interview for the blog, and then GOG should try to accomplish those things.

3. GOG's interviews with guests should be way longer, and way more in-depth, than GOG's previous interviews have been. Shallow & short interviews (like GOG's previous interviews were) are of little to no value.

But comprehensive, long, in-depth interviews would be valuable, potentially.

4. GOG should feature AMA sessions with GOG staff, where GOG staff members agree to answer any & all questions about GOG to the best of their ability, including hardball questions that deal with uncomfortable topics that GOG has historically been afraid to discuss (i.e. the Devotion debacle and the real reason why it was banned and the real reason for why GOG was not honest & forthright to its customers about why Devotion was banned).

BAH! You millennials get off my lawn! There's nowt wrong with RSS feeds. :-)
Actually, I do mean that. I use the GOG RSS feed for the news items at the bottom of the screen. They usually sink into the depths very quickly, thence forth no where to be found, but with the RSS feed they persist for MUCH longer - I can see the news items all the way back to last year which as far as I'm concerned is awesome. Use a good RSS reader; I currently use Inoreader.com which looks very nice.

You had articles about modding classic games, those definitely shouldn't be buried under a dozen press releases after a week.

Was just about to comment on those too.

Please add an extra heading on the blog with the 'Mods Sptlight' articles.

respecting own rules regarding DRM would be sufficient, unfortunately it seems they gave up on that

As you already have increased the number of news entries on the front page from 8 to 11 could you please also allow the front page RSS feed to contain more entries, perhaps even a few more than only 8 or 11?

Edit: Oh, the old feed has been replaced by a new one, which at least at the moment is broken ("XML Parsing Error: not well-formed") ... Did I miss an announcement for that change?
