Heya, its me imoen. :))

Hello everyone. I just bought Witcher 3 from shop and successfully redeemed on GOG. I have a few questions for anyone kind enough to spare some time for an old guy like me. :)

1. I redeemed the code and now its in my account page. However when I enter the witchers page [url=] https://www.gog.com/game/the_witcher_3_wild_hunt[/url] it doesnt say "owned" and i can still see the game in my wishlist. I tried to buy the game on gog.com and it says "already owned". I hope this wont cause a problem in the future.

2. I wont play the game now because of my old laptop. I just bought the game to have the extra goods for now. And .. ummm.. I forgot the question :))

3. I am planning to buy a new laptop soon and before I buy it, i want to install Witcher 3 to 2 of my friends laptops and see which one works it better. Witcher 3 will be the main reason i am buying a new laptop so my question is if thats legal or not. I have never done such a thing before. I can remove the games after checking how it works no problem.

4. According to question 3, I would like to see the specifications of laptops that are able to run witcher 3 without problems. A list like..

CPU : i7-4720HQ (please add the second part since i7 alone doesnt mean anything to me)
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX860M
RAM: 8 GB.

... would be enough. Thanks for your time.
Engin.

I've redeemed my retail copy and I have the same situation. I guess that versions bought directly on GOG and redeemed keys are differentiated by the site. For whatever purposes (statistics?), even if they contain 100% identical content. SO it could be, like, site checks if you have "Witcher_3_digital", but you have "Witcher_3_retail" or the like and does not display it as owned on front page.

GOG allows to install the games on any of your computers, but not to share them with others. But, if you log in to your account on friend's laptop, install and just test it, and then remember to remove it afterwards (GOG games are DRM-free so they can be played without any logging or internet connection) I think it could be fairly fine.

Uninstall the game after you've tested it.

Thank you very much. Now all I need is a few builds from people who played witcher 3.

And make sure you test with the same settings on the same version.
