toxicTom: I don't really see why that should be. Cyberpunk will be DRM-free and anyone wanting it but not wanting to pay will be able to download it from the usual suspects day 1 (cheapskates and freeloaders...).
Of course it would be cool if the pirates, who always claim "honour" and "against DRM" would as one refuse to upload Cyberpunk, torrent platforms would remove any torrent containing it... but even I am not that optimistic...
Note scammers want legit copies that they can sell on shady cdkey shops for actual money
Same problem happened with the Witcher 3. GOG had to disable all gifting of it due to massive amounts of credit card fraud.
The point is, scammers want to make money. GOG accounts right now have no useful way to make money for scamemrs (since no one cares about Thronebreaker or Gwent to any appreciable degree). But once Cyberpunk 2077 gets a release date, then people want to buy it. And a lot of people dont want to pay full price. Then gog accounts suddenly become juicy targets as any account that has gog wallet or a linked payment method can be used to sell a giftable copy of the game.
satoru: Enable 2 factor on GOG NOW.
Darvond: More to the point, ask GOG to move their 2 Factor onto a OTP platform like any typical authentication software.
Given how long it took GOG just to even get this rather basic ultra-vanilla email OTP, I'm not exactly holding my breath on them getting an external token OTP system setup anytime before the Witcher 5
