Ok, so I have to pay the US price then obviously. Well at least I know so that I will avoid this game like a plaque. Really nice I have to pay a flat price and the rich countries get a discount - very nice done gog.

Seems your country always gets the worst deal. Must be because Slovenia is so unbelievable rich.

Cavalary: Me, I'm starting to pester ShinyLoot to become better (commitment to DRM free, or at least setting that percentage of the catalog as DRM free exclusively, not "85% DRM free or DRM lite" as it is now, and more payment methods).
Yes, I'm watching ShinyLoot too and bought a few games there some time ago, but they are advertising with steam keys, so my hopes aren't high.

To be honest I haven't bought anything on gog (or elsewhere) since september, not even during the sales, to give the matter some rest. But now that the policy has changed again for the worse I should assume there's no returning anymore.
I have long ago downloaded all the games from my account, so it appears now is the time to close my account here. I know I won't be able to download updates but I'm not willing to support a store that does this. And since the competition isn't much better that means I now have more time for my other hobbies. :)

HypersomniacLive: Hmm... where have I seen this before? Ah yes, HB.
Game, set, match to you.

SL started out as strictly DRM-free. I used to be a huge fan of theirs, and in fact my Santastar giveaway last year was 50 of their games. But then they started going down this "some DRM" path and I gave up on them. They could've been a contender, but they lost my business at that point.

Not exactly. Shiny-Loot was 100% DRM-Lite+Free before their decision to sell Steam-only games. And while the "Lite" part might have contained nothing more than an offline serial at times, there were quite a few games that came with online activation, such as Painkiller Black Edition and NyxQuest (the latter also had limited installations).

I'll grant that. But their general philosophy at the start was to provide games with as minimal DRM as possible. When that went by the wayside, my patronage went with it.

Matruchus: The russian parliament does have a new antipiracy bill in the parliament at the moment that should rectify that if it gets approved of course.

The legislation you claimed was going to fix piracy in Russia is a tax on everyone's internet connections which would allow civilians to pirate away to their heart's content, while proceeds from the tax would go to this guy and fund his next "Jews are the real genociders!!!1!" epic. So next time, read about the legislation you're supporting so as not to look like a racist, anti-Semite, sexist, homophobic, ultra-right-wing-nut neo-Nazi piece of shit.

I am leery of any government legislation described as "anti-piracy". In the United States at least, this is typically code for "another piece of legislation that gives more control to the ISP oligopoly and screws the consumers further". Anti-piracy is right up there with terrorism among the top excuses to push through legislation that has fuck-all to do with actual problem, but which nicely serves one or more covert agendas.

I'm beginning to really rate Fireflower Games. They sell DRM free games and they pledge to donate at least half their annual profit to projects that benefit the environment and game development. For me, a win-win situation. Don't want to bang on too much here about a rival company but well worth checking out.

Thanks for mentioning them - never knew about their existence. They never come up when I google for drm-free games or not high enough on the list.

Never heard of them too. But it seems they really have some nice games and also good prices (e.g. Deponia - The Complete Journey is €9.99 at the moment).

FireFlower Games have been mentioned a number of times in the Deals thread, where even a representative of theirs chimes in from time to time.
