Didn't study history much hey?
Wow. That's low even for the internet's standards.
By the way, shouldn't you have left 4 hours ago? Please do it?

If you said discrimination, it would be somewhat correct. But the race card, as a fellow Caucasian... No it's not. Funny how you where done with the topic, yet reply in 42 seconds flat.

You may wish to review this thread for a discussion of other DRM-free suppliers (it includes "DRM-Lite" also) though some of these may present issues of their own.
I'd agree that GOG's behaviour here has been questionable to say the least - if their decision to not list Devotion was based on gamer feedback, then why in hell are Beamdog's products still listed here? However it is a decision that GOG can review and change, while deleting your account (as opposed to just not making any further purchases which would have the same impact) is irrevocable - anyone considering this should be sure that they have multiple backup copies of their offline installers.

I do not believe you. Because Russia turned from communism to democracy and it is still the most, №1 hated country on the West and NATO-block countries.
I think Russia is nowadays closer to fascism than democracy.

Well said. As I mentioned eariier:
"People like to do virtue-signalling when it is convenient for them." Wait, what? You dislike Russian regime, but you like Putin?
Aren't they, like, pretty much the same thing?

I personally have no problem with companies doing business with China.
Chinese economy is a reality that we must accept, as we don't live on an island that is secluded from the rest of the world.
That said, one thing is to do business with China, a complete different beast is to actively boycott a developer because they ask you to, for political reasons.
This is flat out wrong.
Which is why I didn't buy anything on sale and I plan not to, despite a couple good deals I've seen. I plan to buy my games somewhere else entirely, from now on.

It is similar if someone published a game that has a picture of Mohammad (which would piss off all muslims in the world, just ask Charlie Hebro). or a game which ridiculates the late king of Thailand (which would piss off most Thai people).
If GOG decided not to release such a controversial game that pisses off many people, does it mean they approve islamic terrorism, or the current problems in Thai democracy?
No, of course not. It would just mean that GOG doesn't want such political debacles into its store, most probably for busines reasons (= money).
Oh, you mean Soviet Union, not "communist Russia".
Putin is ex-KGB though. Poisoning the opposition is so KGB.
BTW I recently saw this Russian movie:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7352942/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0
I felt it was a pretty good movie, albeit... damn Russian saunas are weird!

#projection
First of all I made it just for fun and because of the obvious irony here (but you're not the first and certainly not the last either), and secondly I use an add-on that hides all that meaningless points and low-rates (which GOG are incapable of fixing, or better, remove).
Anyway, happy thoughts and have a good journey, once you're on your way that is...
