![]() If you're not convinced by now that GOG is and always will be DRM free then nothing will ever do it How do people even play games nowadays being this paranoid to DRM? At this point they should just play old pre-2006 games with CD keys and stuff. (this isn't actually aimed at kizuxtheo as I know he wasn't the one arguing that this is one more step towards Galaxy becoming mandatory, his post just happened to mention an official statement) If you're not convinced by now that GOG is and always will be DRM free then nothing will ever do it. Galaxy has existed / been announced for almost half of GOG's lifetime and it is yet to happen, staff have repeatedly reassured that it will never happen, anyone with a shred of business sense knows it will never happen (the one situation where I can see it is if Steam somehow dies or GOG gets superior market share to them, both highly unlikely) and yet every other week we get some doom and gloom post about how GOG is trying to kill DRM free. Seriously, ever since Galaxy was announced (4 years ago) we've had numerous claims from users that old installers would die and Galaxy would be the only future. ![]() Kizuxtheo: At some level I don't blame you because GOG staff has yet to make a statement or something to put these concerns to ease, there's like a daily post here of people hating on Galaxy and prophesying GOG suddenly turning into DRM heaven. At some level I don't blame you because GOG staff has yet to make a statement or something to put these concerns to ease, there's like a daily post here of people hating on Galaxy and prophesying GOG suddenly turning into DRM heaven. And I know no matter what we say, you will just answer with the same conspiracy theory stuff. I think you're too biased against the whole DRM thing and services like Steam. :( What if, stay with me here -puts on his tinfoil hat- they're watching you play through your webcam if you use Galaxy. It always was Valve's master trick to sell these additional DRM measures – plus the ultimate, the social media copy protection mechanisms that industry strength glue you to one service provider – as "features" on their platform. You want to use these "features", they're checking whether the game belongs to you. Technically, the difference to Steamworks DRM is non-existant, sorry. ![]() Vainamoinen: Whenever your profile syncs with Galaxy to update stats, whenever your trophies are updated, whenever you're auto-updating your game etc., they're incidentally verifying whether the game's in your account.
