I prefer GOG over Steam for the simple reason that I’m not forced to use a launcher if I don’t want to.
Comment on GOG is Getting Acquired By Its Original Co- Founder: What It Means For You
Wildmimic@anarchist.nexus 1 day agoI think Gog is more popular then ever, because people start recognizing that buying from GOG is like buying organic produce and has it’s worth - they are in a pretty good market position with this image, and i fully believe them when they write that “[they] have seen more enthusiasm from gamers towards [their] mission than ever before”.

I do too, but imagine the drop in donations/subscriptions if they were to pull a stunt like the one with steam/mastercard and porn games. Or if they were to not want to remove a game that features, say, the gaza genocide but on israel’s side, or some other extremely divisive issue.

Well Heroic Launcher works fine for my GOG Library, so that’s not so much of an issue for me. What i miss much more is Playnite, which integrated pretty much everything from steam to GOG, Epic, Amazon and Emulators for pretty much everything.
