That's a lie , I never wear my own underpants on my head.... (I might have been seen on occasion with a pair of women's underwear (panties) on my head . but that's only when I bought some new used ones from the worn panty sellers that I want to snif all day rather than only sniffing them once in a while)

Newer games are made to work without a traditional install, but for anything older I'd want an offline installer for backups. If Galaxy didn't offer that, it would be a huge problem IMO.

Just chipping in regarding this point: altough there is no "sort by purchase date" on the owned tab, wich i hope they manage to add, there is a workable alternative in the recent tab, wich shows your recent purchases, alot easier than browsing the entire library.

You just cant stay out of this topic, can you.

Punctuation is not a requirement to post in this topic, for or against gogs decision.

You do realise that was a joke, right? I know you're not the brightest knife in the lake, but still, you must have some idea of that concept called "humor", right? And yes, yes, I know, it's super important that people here can have the same pointless, tired argument for the hundreth time without some asshole like me, heaven forbid, throwing in a joke. But that's just the kind of monster I am.

Maybe not buy so many games?

(That is not a dig btw, just an observation.....I mean who needs that many games? I myself have around 300+ aand think that's still too much) Tbh if I may be open and honest:

What I am seeing here(not just by you) is just reinforcing a belief i've held for awhile now.....so many in the world today are seemingly lazy as sin(Yes, I am lazy too sometimes...I am no saint in that regard).

Oh how we all laughed.

Now, back on to the actual topic at hand...

But GOG has made a decision: ======================

The topic is mostly dead...and if not for some of those posts you seem to dislike and a few hangers on these threads would be all but ghost towns.

=============================
============================= (Replace the word law with the word GOG)

Any business that provides a service to the public will take very seriously any feedback on their operations, despite inanity and opinions posted to the contrary.

Please visit and vote here if you are unhappy with the decision to drop the downloader:

(Tbh I want this to succeed, but GOG has had 3 months to post a response to this, and except for one PR filled reply at the start they have remained silent....to me that speaks volumes.

Yes, they could change their mind, but then I also could win the lotto and get struck by lightning all at once.)

You're like a real life version of the "stop that sketch, it's getting silly" colonel from Monty Python.

Why not just ignore my post? Was it hurting this oh so precious dead horse of a thread somehow? Was someone offended?

What topic is "at hand" here? It's been three months, for crying out loud. There's nothing more to be said. If you insist on keeping this thread on life support we can at least add some humor to the proceedings. Yes, I know I'm not funny, but I think you should find that quality endearing.

Anyway, you can always report me and have me banned for off-topic posts or something. That's about the only action from GOG this thread can cause anyway :D

Some here have alluded and seem to think that such posting is somehow hurting the cause through (I guess, if I read them right) similar posts "making the cause being pushed look bad or not as legitimate", or maybe (also if I read them right) making some not want to post here.

Essentially the thread is(as you said) on life support...if not for a few of them still bumping it it'd be all but deserted...especially if we left.

Heck, some of our posts likely keep it bumped so others can see it and vote, which helps them out....but nah, to some it seems we're not much but a negative to the thread and that supposedly without us posting this cause would be a resounding success.

(Looking at the post dates, when I and some others don't post here it can be around 1 week or so between the posts of those still advocating for the issue at hand....even the OP doesn't post here anymore, that I know of[could have missed their post, though])

Please keep this thread on topic Breja, three months old or not. The voting is increasing and gog will be watching.

PM me if need be, I do not wish for a valid thread to be locked without good reason.

In the meantime:

https://www.gog.com/wishlist/site/keep_the_gog_downloader_and_keep_it_up_to_date

I believe you posted that same wishlist link around 5 or so posts back....as have many others.

Also why spam it at all? Why not just let people click the same link on the first page of this thread?

(Also no need to worry about GOG locking it due to offtopic.....they only do that to high profile controversial threads.....this thread has nothing to fear as it's neither high profile(imo) or controversial(again imo))

What's even the point of Galaxy?
