And to be fair, neither Steam nor Epic even allows you to download an offliner installer; GOG does.

`So it doesn’t require the EGS Launcher? It doesn’t require any form of Internet connection to install, launch, or play?
With all due respect, if the answer is “it does” to either one of those questions, then that’s still a very strong form of DRM.`
Guess that GOG is a very strong form of DRM

Not at all.
Of course you require an Internet connection to download the offline installer. How the hell do you expect to get it otherwise? For them to ship a disk to you? Lol. That’s not DRM; that’s a delivery method.

You’re the one who said that needing an internet connection to be able to install a game is a form of DRM, not me 🤷

I did say that, but you don’t need an Internet connection to install a game from GOG, just to download the installer. Once you have the installer, you can install the game offline anytime you want.
I never contradicted myself; I was being very clear. You’re just being nitpicky.
