I would much rather people bought from GOG, guessing it means ProjektRed will get more money that way. Plus gives more steam to DRM free store!

It's important to diversify and prevent the situation where just one's portfolio holds everything we have got. Otherwise, we will end up like with current UK auctions market : there is either ebay or nothing. Ebay killed, bought out or merged with all competitors just to make their fees reaching almost 15% now (I am sure that's not their last words and they would gladly take 100%). The interesting thing is that in places where ebay is not that strong and has to compete (Asia, Eastern Europe) they can easily run their business on 2% commissions as all other online businesses used to. Business has no heart and the shareholders have no face, it's all about big bucks for doing ideally nothing.Support the smaller ones, otherwise as soon as the competition dies the 'good' offers from the big industry boys make no financial sense to them and will be ceased.

As someone doing a degree in business and have studied business the vast majority I am a firm believer in competition and how without it everyone is, to put it simply, ****. However I also believe in a balanced arguments, so I was merely trying to suggest reasons why despite this is about £5 more than the GoG average its still sitting at a pretty 250 heat :stuck_out_tongue: Despite I sound like a steam supporter, that £5 I save could buy me another game and you can damn well bet I'm getting two games instead of one! :laughing:

Also the DRM free model is great, I'm a firm believer in being able to share you games (within reason of course, I'm not talking about supplying 500 people with the thing) and allowing friends to try it themselves before dumping cash on it. Yes some will abuse it, but its how it used to be and is much more consumer friendly. Steam is questionable at the best of times, even if out of convienience that's where the largest proportion of my games are.

I reckon gog are doing pretty well as it's always been quite popular. Loads of people like to use it for reasons other than its DRM free, loads of people like a lot of games on both it and steam and loads of people just use steam. I personally don't use gog for anything other than older games but I've heard galaxy is very slow to download from whereas steam will download as fast as your connection will let you.

I would like to say that steam isn't as evil as a lot of people think and it's more more user controlled than you may think. I used to hate it when it first came out but now I understand where valve are going.

​You could just download them through the website then add non steam game and it would be the exact same apart from achievements and cards

Bought it on GOG to support DRM free games and CDPR :smile:

Does anyone know if a Game of the Year edition is in the offing? Got so many games I haven't finished yet but really fancy trying this. Heat.

I have experienced slower downloads on steam before and found you can change the location of the server you're downloading from. I think i changed to one in France and it fixed my problem. That was a while ago and I'm back on the default server for location now.
