Fairfox can you read this alright ?

Fairfox and I understand each other perfectly.

Sorry, gotta ask, how exactly? Did they print if off and insert that, have it open on a smart phone before popping that up there?

Same reason for logical people as everything else in life. A better ''deal'' (in a general sense) For example if you're into older games Steam can be problematic. GOG works better sometimes. So, a better deal. But sales and prices always go first. If none of that is an issue you may be into multiplayer performance or like how the clients work or you want achievements with your game or whatever that's your own decision. Just be picky about buying from GOG because if you need a refund good luck with that. Research as much as possible before buying from any one platform.

im happy with GOG because i like DRM free the most.
ofcourse the update situation could be better, but thats fault of both devs and GOG imho
its not GOG`s fault, when game devs decide to include steam only workshop into their updates
GOG could maybe improve the update process, so the workload for updating is minimal for devs and doesnt require too much extra work
website could be much improved, e.g. more sorting options (like sorting game reviews by date), fixing all the old/inaccurate reviews and rating on games and much more ...

My purchasing plummeted here.

Honestly, that's okay. Back in 2010-2012 I was pretty fanatical about GOG, but as the years rolled on and I got older and eventually found someone that loves me (for some reason) my priorities have changed. I mostly stick with Steam, my s/o uses Steam, we play games together, it works out fine enough. I've been using Steam since 2005 so I have some perspective for how bad it used to be compared to now.

Neither are perfect. I'd say that you should choose GOG if:
+ DRM-free is vitally important to you.
+ You like that most older games on GOG are setup to "just work" (YMMV still).
+ You like a smaller community.
+ You like having lots of chances for free games, especially with Steam Connect.
+ You don't really care about newer releases that much.
+ You like to gamble during your sales...
+ You like the color grey...

Or choose Steam if:
+ Game selection is more important to you than DRM-free. (Truckloads of shit, but also lots of gems not sold here).
+ You like a larger community.
+ You like social features (profile/hub/workshop/marketplace/etc).
+ You have friends/family that play games on PC and Steam.
+ You like your indie games to be updated.
+ You like to play newer releases frequently.
+ You don't tire of HL3 jokes... (please stop)
+ You like the color blue...

At the end of the day, just play some games. The sun will eat us soon and none of this will matter anymore.

> Any reason to buy here anymore

Sure, why not. GOG is mostly fine for me.

So far I have not experienced any totally outdated game on GOG. But the frequent complaints actually make me want to check that before buying. I wish GOG would display the version number and the last updated time stamp on their game card, even better would be to make the release changes info public.

I know, its kinda daring and revolutionary - but you can actually use both. No need to choose, just like that. ;)
