"What would you do?" I would buy it on steam, I'm not young enough (or patient enough) to wait years in agony if some game is coming to gog if it's not even confirmed that it's coming. I do use gog and steam.. I have a lot of games on both places, also few on origin and uplay.
I do prefer games without drm of course. Who wouldn't?

But who will actually judge you if you just want to play that game? Some random people on a forum and yourself.
You don't blame yourself long for caving in if it's a good game, if it isn't you will blame yourself forever, for abandoning your moral high ground. ;)

That’s enough Warhammer 40K for you.
GoG offers a good range of games but there are certain things Steam excels at – connectivity and a colossal multiplayer community for example. If you’re really into that type of game then where else are you supposed to go? Nobody sets up LAN parties any more.

I'm the same as you. Even a hype for a game I like can be ruined at the second I realize that the game is only available on Steam, with no possibility of it coming to GOG.

Reads like the devs sold their souls to the gaben ;)

I think at that point the only choices are between not playing and getting it from steam.

Considering the fact that Galaxy is still in a very early stage I doubt that they will think about it.
He said "grim", not "grimdark".

+1 to that.

Ha, funny post. Have never had steam (or uplay, orign etc) on my machine, though I have friends who and have used it. Person all I wouldn't ho near it if you paid me. I am lucky though in the fact that I collect games, and have a backlog of several lifetimes across various platforms, so I don't have this burning need to play the next big release which is what enables games companies and publishers to have the power they do. For instance about 6 months back I brought a 360 off a work colleague for £30 and a ton of games off gumtree for no more that £2 each (including collectors editions). This alone will give me plenty to play foe the next few years, let alone the ps3 collection I am building and all the Gog releases recently.

So I am torn between two answers, sensibly there is no reason to ever rent something. However juxtapose to that, if everyone was sensible and just did what I do, there wouldn't be as much new releases and I wouldn't get the great deals on older stuff.

Now then, how many joblots will I buy from ebay this week for the cost of one new game :o)

As I said I don't like the idea of Steam and I prefer GOG, but I do use it and if a game is available only there I say "fuck it".

Go for Steam if GOG doesn't have it on hand. While the idea of DRM-free appeals to me, it means nothing if there isn't media to back it.

There's hundreds if not thousands of dollars of games that I quite like, that are Steam only. I just tell myself, if I stick with GOG or Humble drm free games; I get to save a shit load of money. Sure, I'm definitely missing out on some great titles; but in the end, I feel I've made a healthy decision.

That's your fight dude. You see if you want to make a point (and don't buy it if it's not the way you want it) or serve yourself now.

There are some games that will likely never, ever come to GOG let alone be DRM-Free, those are the ones I'll get cheap as fuck on Steam. Titles like GTA 5, Company of Heroes 2, Max Payne 3 or any Valve titles I have a hard time seeing DRM-Free, for example.

If I feel like a game has a slight chance of being DRM-Free/coming to GOG, I'll hold off until it's very low price, then when/if GOG gets it I'll buy it again on GOG. It doesn't really matter to me since it'll cost like, a cup of coffee (sometimes less) on Steam if I buy it there.

I would very much like to buy more games on GoG but for now I try to limit myself till the add achievements to all the games that should have achievements.

You should NOT join the dark side of PC gaming. Ever...

even occasionally import the steamfree disc version (how I got Torchlight 2)
