darthspudius: Dude, if you just want to enjoy games. Buy them on Steam. It makes no difference to the experience, not one bit. Just enjoy the game and don't care what others think. I do recommend trying to get them on GOG just for the goodies though, they're pretty awesome.

nworc30311: I use Steam too. But if the game I want is available on GOG, I am going to get it on GOG just because I appriciate CD Projekt. And I think they deserve my money more than Valve. Also if you look at long term effect, if GOG becomes competition for Valve, it is going to be better for us players. Because they will need to improve. There will be more sales,better offers, better support etc. because they are competition and they need to beat the competition and be better than competition. I look at it that way.

But ofc, my switching to GOG doesn't mean I'm giving up on my Steam acc. For example I grabbed temporary free Amnesia Collection today on Steam. That is a realy good deal.
I miss when people simply bought games because they wanted to play them.

As always the one thing that makes me favour GOG over Steam and the likes is the DRM-free approach.
Firstly, it means my games aren't dependant on some online DRM service, and hence I may continue to play them even after the said DRM's servers close or Windows drops support for the said DRM.
Secondly, my games, once setup files are downloaded, are not dependant on the service.

I'm not realy sure what you mean. But for example I grabbed Amnesia today because I want to play A Machine For Pigs. I played first Amnesia and it's realy a good horror video game and I want to try the 2nd part.

And for example I never get games I do not want to play even if they are free. I see many people getting almost evry single one of those free games. They are collecting or something I do not know. But I personaly do not do that because I have no idea what am I going to do with like 300 games I'm never going to play. :D

People still do that.The only problem right now are the publishers which try as hard as they can to make the lives of legit buyers a nightmare.It is that moronic stance of the industry that brought us to a point where we lean to one side or the other.Cheers
P.S I still prefer GOG over everything else ;).

Well it does for some of us. For example, I can't reach the Steam DRM server on the main internet connection I use.

edit: Gotta admit I was waiting for this thread to fall apart to posters confessing their gaming sins.....

Of course it does. Steam users have no peace of mind that their games which are infested with the Steam DRM will be accessible to them if/when Steam ever bans their account and/or goes out of business. On the other hand, users who have games which are not infested with the Steam DRM do have that peace of mind.

As for the OP: Cd Projekt doesn't care if you buy their games on Steam or not. They are getting paid every time you do. If they didn't want their games to be on Steam, then they wouldn't be. They love having their games on Steam and that's why they put them there.
