Are they just abandoning it?

Was it actually unauthorized to begin with and Steam shut it down?

Just not gaining enough interest?
not again

No idea, but most likely no.

Steam has nothing to do with it. GOG used the Steam API to poll a user's games, and the publishers that wanted to participate told GOG that they could offer games X for free.

What kind of interest? It was a limited time promotion, and whether or not it was a success remains to be seen. I do believe we'll see more games coming to GOG connect in the future, but again, for a limited time.

Before you joined we had this same thing with "Why no Lucas Arts games" threads. XD Sometimes we'd get two or three a day.
It's dependent of publisher approval therefore it will only show up when more publishers decide to allow their games to be claimed through Connect and usually just for a few days.

And it was by far a much more important question.
Looks like they just put the "con" in Gog CONnect.
Is this one of those "entitlement programs" I hear talk radio complain about?

Hey man; GOG would never ever do that. Trust me ;)
I think that the service will continue, right now it's not most likely due to the Steam summer sale. People would just buy a game from Steam and redeem it on GOG for free. This way Steam would benefit the most.

it depends mostly on publishers so i THINK GAMES WILL BE ADDED AFTER STEAM SALES END.
Thank you :)

You have the right to ask questions without the local clowns,big noting themselves.
