I believe the friend system is planned for the website too, not just Galaxy; it's just deployed simultaneously first in Galaxy. I may be wrong.

The new installer of Rise of the Triad 2013 (2.3.0.19) seems to have fixed the bug where the digital integrity check wasn't progressing.
Also, in you case missed it, the Galaxy launcher that was embedded in the previous version to enable multiplayer, has been removed from this one.

GOG ta catch 'em all?

I'll delete myself now...

I assumed that as well, but there will be some people who don't want to have anything to do with that whether they use Galaxy or not and probably want a way to shut it off I imagine. Seems like it'd be an easy thing to make optional, and GOG appears very flexible about the idea of making everything optional that is reasonable to do so, so I imagine they'll make that feature optional as well. It's likely just in beta chaos at the moment. Plus the looming Witcher 3 release and other stuff... they're likely running around like chickens with their heads cut off around the offices there in Poland. hehe

Yup. I jumped at the thought of "Don't Starve Together on Galaxy!".

It would be nice if Don't Starve had an LAN or direct-ip feature, sadly they took the shortcut with Steam api.

we'll find out for certain once it leaves early access


they announced DST like a year ago and I ran over to GOG to grab a couple copies as soon as I heard

they said it'd be out by the end of summer and free to everyone who owns DS, here we are over a year later and I have genuine doubt in my heart I'll even have access to it outside of Steam. UGH.

I've come to the conclusion over the last 15 years that:

1) The majority of all people with female avatars are male. The better looking the photo, the more likely this is to be true. (Why this is the case is an entirely different discussion topic probably warranting a thread of its own if not an entire website LOL).

2) The majority of women don't use their own photo for their avatar but are much more likely to use a photo of their cat, dog, baby, or some flowers and butterfly artwork with an inspirational quote printed on top in a calligraphic font.

These are of course generalizations and do not apply to all people all of the time, but it is a rather frequent observation on various forms of social media online, especially gaming related. ;) It certainly seems to be true more often than not anyway.

Thank you for the giggle. (Pretty on-point observations, I'd have to say.)

:)

Believe it or not, my current avatar is actually a personal head shot photo purposefully pixelated both for that 8-bit retro gamey feel, and semi-privacy. :)

On the boards I'm now able to sent buddy-requests but I seem to lack the additional tab in my "Account"-Section. When I disable Greasemonkey I get a grey number (probably related) but still no new area for stuff like this.
How is it supposed to look?

It is not implemented on the website yet.

What is that number next to the 'account' menu which doesn't seem to reflect forum replies, messages or library updates?
