GOG Downloader may indeed be no longer officially supported, however if I'm not mistaken the back end servers that serve GOG Downloader are the same resources that provide files for direct-download through a web browser from the GOG website - which is still supported and which GOG has stated will always be supported in the future.

As such, if a file is not available on the backend servers for GOG Downloader to be able to grab, this is not an evil conspiracy to force people to use Galaxy, it is an honest mistake by the GOG employees working hard to package our games up and release them. Human err happens, and they're usually pretty good about correcting the biggest problems that occur quickly when we report them.

If one is going to point out missing games in GOG Downloader as a conspiracy to get people to switch to Galaxy, then it is only equally fair to point out games that _are_ available through GOG Downloader and the website but are _not_ available in Galaxy too - as a conspiracy to make people use GOG Downloader instead of Galaxy. It makes the same logical or illogical sense to use either argument really.

While I still have GOG Downloader and it fires up when my OS starts, I usually exit it when I notice it but I like knowing it is around for backup if I need it. As anyone who follows this thread regularly should already know though - games very much DO go missing from GOG Galaxy quite often, sometimes for a few minutes, sometimes for days/weeks/months until someone notices and reports them. I know because I have had it happen a number of times, reported it here and in Mantis and our friendly neighbourhood Judas has sprung up from time to time usually with lightning speed to correct the problem.

I see games missing from the website/downloader as no different from that. There is no conspiracy to force people to use Galaxy like some people are fond of promulgating, this is just normal problems that occur with the distribution of files through all of the mechanisms with which they make the games available. And for those who aren't already aware of it, the website and downloader have different back end servers supplying the games than Galaxy does, so this is why games may appear on one and not the other at a given moment. There can be lag time between them, or as mentioned above good old fashioned honest human error.

So... :) I know where you were going with that, but it turns out to be destination nowhere when one looks at the facts. :)
