Pipped?

So what keeps you here then, if this place is so awful?

As long as I am able to download my games (offline installers) from GOG, and after that don't need the site with its "functionality or browsing ability" to play my games, I'm fine.

For me, apart from DRM-free games, gogrepoc.py (or lgogdownloader) is the best feature of GOG, over Steam or Epic. Yes they are user-made tools, but who cares as long as they work.

If I wanted to download all my Steam or Epic games in order to archive them and install/play them without ever having to visit the site/service at all, how can I do that? Is there any tool to mass-download all your Steam games with pretty much one click (or command)? Not that it really matters that much, as most of the games have DRM and can't be installed and played without logging into the service...

I sure hope GOG will never become a Steam alike.

GOG needs to reinstate its older ID and code of conduct, with all those self-abolished official and unofficial policies, at that. GOG was never meant to be a steam alike, that is why it is failing hard. It is fundamentaly and by design, the complete opposite to steam; trying to immitate and emulate it, only shakes GOG to its core/foundation and jeopardizes its future.

There's a lack of selection when it comes to games but I care about owning my media and putting it on a USB stick whenever I need them, or hard drive. I abandoned Steam a while ago, I also dislike the community over there. So GOG is fine with me.

The DRM-free games is why I'm here. Though I'm questioning it more everyday. What use is DRM-Free if they don't provide you the product you paid for (Steelrising DLC for the Bastille edition), won't answer a support ticket, and make it a hassle to even create a support ticket in the first place? Had I bought on Steam, I'd be playing the content I paid for already instead of having to file tickets that GOG will never answer with a robot that I suspect doesn't actually pass on the tickets to GOG. Now I'm having trouble refunding the game because it's mroe than 30 days out because THEY failed to provide the promised content. The Developer has already answered my Q within MINUTES of asking them, and said they have no control of that. GOG is fucking absent and won't pick up the phone (figuratively speaking).

*tearful eyes* LEAVE BRITNEY ALOOONE!!!!!! :P

LOL

I remember that.

Was that Milo Y?

I couldn't remember so I looked it up. That guy's name was Chris Crocker, but now he is not a he anymore and changed name to Cara Cunningham.


Anyway: back on topic, I agree with many that said that Gog shouldn't even try to be Steam because if they do they will fail miserably.

Well steam has:
Pushed and had Microtransactions and loot boxes for years
Mandatory to use a client i hate
pushed 'ACHIEVEMENTS' on every game whether you care about it or not
Client is required to start up half the games
Cards you can earn/trade which have no real value
DRM
No installers you can back up, or install on a system not on the internet...
A modding community you can't access unless you have the game in steam
Games by the dozen that are asset flips

. . .

Why would i want it like steam?
