My first account was in 2011, but I lost the password and email. I didn't become active on the forum until 2014 or 2015 anyhow. I was 31 then. I joined for Master of Magic after going to one of those abandonware sites and being linked to it here.

Joined in 2016 (22 years old) but started using GOG full-time only in October 2017, my first normal purchase (aside from free games) being Grim Dawn.

Until then, I only ever bought retail boxes. Never made a direct purchase on any digital game platform besides GOG.

So you're younger than me like a few others who also posted....now I feel like an old fart. o.0

And to think there are some who claim all of those sites have no morals and do no good. ;)

Let me put it this way: I could be your dad.
Let's leave it at that.

;)

And another "young'in".....at this rate I may as well break out the wheelchair. :|


=======================================

Hey gramps, poking the wall/ceiling/floor with my broom and telling other users to be quiet is my schtick now. ;D

(Also, to a lesser extent: Doing Vader impressions)

At the age of 28, i only found out about GOG when Gurumin showed up, though it was a broken game for like almost 3 years here until it finally got fixed.
But that didn't stop me from buying other games once i found out they also accept paysafecards and the drm-free downloads were actually what i was looking in a store..

no, I was 31 in 2011. we're not that far apart, but I've guessed that from your actual posts.

At 35... found GOG while trying to find the English version of HoMM 1 on an abandonware site (because the German version which I own on disk has a shitty translation).

Listen kid, there is always someone older, faster, richer...


When I joined I was middle-aged and guess I still am.

I did hear about GOG when they shut down their beta service back in 2008 but they reopening shortly after went me by for two years. Then I was recommended the shop in 2010 but did not get around to making an account until a year later as I had my hands full with RS (a mmorpg) and games on discs.

I think i was around 17 or 18. Was really nice to find this one of a kind store. So many good games and amazing people to see in one place. Wish i joined earlier :). Cheers

Spying on me, are ya?!? o.0

Also what do you mean by "actual posts"? All of em are me actual posts. :D

But yeah, it would seem we're very close in age.

==============================================

Or younger, but yeah I know what you mean.

Runescape? I remember hearing about that...never got into it, though(too busy with other stuff).

You know, the ones where you're not telling us your age.

Yes, nowadays a pay to win game owned by people who do not play games themselves.

Has...*counts on fingers*....it....really...*counts on toes*....been.....that many times?

*starts counting on hairs*

;D
================================

Reminds me of many good MMOs...run into the ground or milked for all they're worth by greedy execs/etc.

I enter to gog five years ago with the purpose to pick the bonus of Beneath a Steel Sky. Months later i claimed the Battle Realms game because it came with the expansion, never released in Spain.

Years passed and i´ve forgot my account until they put Syberia for free, and so on. My first purchase was Still Life 2 because i had the game on steam but i need the drm-free data to play the game on a pc without internet.

Now i´ve purchase more than a hundred games and gog it´s my priority platform.
