It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

QicCa: Have they started using this crap only recently because I don't remember being deterred from logging in before? Either way, they are using reCAPTCHA's v3 which is invisible to the user i.e. no more AI-training images but now you're being subjected to algorithms instead which IMO makes it even worse. As if I needed any more reasons not to conduct business here.
There seems to be a lot of FUD in this thread. I use Firefox with uBlock Origin and Google blocked through it and never had to do captcha on login. And I log in every day (cleaning cookies on browser exit). Well, maybe it's a thing when you don't use 2FA?

Besides I don't see how blocking captcha could cause "gogbear". When I block it on say gift code activation page (or on any other website) simply nothing happens.

Since almost a week, if I cleared previous session cookies, I need to allow recaptcha.net and gstatic.com scripts in order to trigger 2FA and log in here.
I don't get the GogBear if I block those scripts, login circle just keeps spinning.

Exactly what I'm experiencing and this is the first time I haven't been able to login because I block these scripts globally. Hence why I was wondering if this was something that changed recently.
I also have 2FA enabled and am able to login normally if I allow aforementioned scripts but there are no challenges to complete since reCAPTCHA v3 works in the background.

Count me in on the problems with Firefox.
I couldn't post in the trhread since a couple days ago.
And now I just found out the refund button wasn't bugged, it just didn't work on firefox.
Also the search function in the forums does not work on firefox either.

All these work fine on Microsoft Edge lol.

I have to disable uBlock to use GOG. Otherwise I can't log in, post, or even browse my library.

I have uBlock enabled just fine (v0.9.5.25).

Though this is after i've logged in and got the cookie that lets me work/access. The only scripts allowed on GoG is Gog.com and Gog-statistic.com (which i'm not sure needs to be there).

Other addons include auto cleaner (for non-white listed sites) and AdBlockerPlus.

I had this issue during the weekend. With Firefox (and uBlock Origin), I was systematically getting a GOGBear while trying to log in. I eventually tried with Chrome (with no extensions), and it worked fine this time, so I then tried again with Firefox while fiddling with all the plugins I use, and quickly found that disabling uBlock allowed Firefox to login to GOG successfully.

Today, everything work fine. I could log normally with Firefox and uBlock without any problem.
