Yes, really.

I want to be able to prevent the blue dot from appearing on gamecards which would either specifically be toggled to not show updates, or that I've hidden. I've hidden the game, it should not announce presence in any way. I should be able to forget it exists.

While I don't tend to buy games that update, there are one or two, which with unerring infrequency appear as a blighted pox on my index.

I think should just be a button that clears all update alerts. Right now to clear them you have to click on each game individually, and that's just boring.

Also, both galaxy and the website do a poor job in telling you what exactly been updated or that you received updates to begin with.
Yes, you get a blue dot, but that's only if you look in your library on the website. If you don't do that you won't know about updates.
Even then, the little blue dot doesn't tell you what part of the game has been updated. Is the the installer? Goodies? You'll never know.

Oh please no. Every time GOG goes and fiddles with something in the back-end something else breaks.

Some of us WANTED the update flags to actually work and it took them weeks to fix it last time. If they go and try to implement something like this I'm sure they'll screw something up somehow.

They can't get rid of the purple dot. What makes you think they can do anything to the blue?

Of course, that doesn't help when some developers/publishers can't be bothered to follow a standard versioning schema, instead relying on weird things like letters or build names.
