andreas.scholz: So, first of all, it worked (very) well with GOG for years without Galaxy, online requirements and whatsoever. They cash 30% of every sale - just do the math. They could, with their customer base, enforce what they promised. But, recently, more and more publisher stretch these lines thin. And to push GOG back to what we expect - games with offline installer which are not silently connecting to AWS servers during gameplay (read my recent discoveries which where verified by others) etc, they need to feel it to make their contract partners (publishers) behave. Complaining doesn't change a company - cash (or no cash) does. This is how it works.
If you're talking about math, then you should know that GOG was not a big player back in those days.
I never said that complaining would change something. But neither does your wallet. Their not interested in those 1% that complains about everything.
andreas.scholz: 2nd, its not only the Quicksilver-Store, and even that could easily being implemented to work with an approximated model regarding the performance of that one player. But I don't care for the Quicksilver. Its everything else that's withhold. Like the access to the Living Ships etc. Its more and more cut off, even thou there is no valid reason except their wish to get everyone to the (DRM)-always-online incl. data-sucking.
So its the quicksilver store and the living ship? 2 things and you want to quit GOG - aren't you overreacting a little??
andreas.scholz: It's a free world. Support this and see where it will get you - I will not. If I can't trust them to hand me a fully accessible game under the promised conditions, I'm out.
Well then, good bye. You can continue complaining about everything but it won't change. Most of the people are happy with it.
But noone forces you to use GOG.
