lazydog: Maybe I am missing something butI can't see anything there about refusing a refund or stating that the witcher3 does not include DRM.

mqstout: Missed the first paragraph in my copy/paste. It's there now.
Still can't see a firm statement. Maybe an issue with the links.

I will hold out for an official reply to my support ticket and let folks know the outcome when I have it.
I got a decision on my refund request.

It has been denied based on the fact that gog consider a sale final after 30 days from purchase. End of Story.

Hopefully this will be of some help to anyone wishing to place future orders with gog.

I am not surprised by this decision or disappointed (other than being disappointed I had to ask in the first place). It was the manner of the response I received that was always going to interest me the most.

Gog have chosen to ignore my actual issue with the game and that is fine, namely DRM is being retroactively added to a CDPR game and promoted on a store that still claims to be DRM free.

Anyway, that's the info. Take it as you may.

tfishell: I'm pretty sure you're an alt, given how much you're posting and being so invested in the DRM situation for being so new, but that's okay.
It's actually truly sad how some people do not follow true wisdom and do errorfully judge books by their covers.

Let's bring a bit of deadly honest clarification: A person having one account for the total of GOG is not an "alt" by definition: Purging the old emails/passwords, fully cancelling the access to the old as a security/preservation measure against hijacking plus a technique to respect my human right on privacy does not mean to have an alternative nor gives any. As such, please leave own "sure" imagination to yourself. I don't need to be a part of it.

mqstout: GOG is refusing a refund. But, worse, is attempting to state that the title is DRM-free.
A being is a cancellation of trillions of cells, a digital store exist thanks to the millions of customers buying games; Trust is hard to gain, easy to lose in a second. When a body has cancer in the system, it will break down eventually without very good treatment (DRM is cancer in my view), when a lie is made, trust is lost, and when the digital store doesn't do curation it promised nor protect against DRM, when the store owner itself is the main high-ranking offender, this is how GOG actually loses its customers forever.

If GOG staff could understand how important every customer/cell is for its well-being, as well as trust, we could never have this crazy mess in the 1st place.
