Dar007-Eleven: Would be nice to have an Ignore game button for games on their feature and preview page. There's quite a lot of games I'd never be interested in so I figure this would be best to curate the ones which would never show up again. Steam utilizes it so I would have thought GOG might've featured it by now.
nightcraw1er.488: Yep, not going to happen. First and foremost, nothing gets updated. But even if it did, it’s not beneficial to them, who want you to buy things.
I'd argue the opposite. A hide option would only be beneficial to GOG.
- You would never buy games that you are so uninterested in that you go so far as to hide them completely. So no sales lost here.
- However "curating" your personal shop site in that way will make games you ARE interested in more visible and therefore more likely to be bought by you.
- Additionally hidden games data can be used to improve the "you might be interested in"-algorithm to give you suggestions more tailored to your interests. Again this actually increases the chance that you would be suggested games that you'd like to buy but weren't on your radar.
