gog
>>719979152gog of course, im not stupid
>>719979152>buyIf it's on GOG then that means there's a free download one click away.
GOG.
Epic Games Store
if GOG was on top instead of Steam the world would be a better place
>>719979152>requires updatesSteam.>singleplayerGoG>multiplayerSteam
>>719979152Depends. Does the Steam version have Denuvo or some ancient kind of DRM? If that's the case I'll either buy from GOG or pirate from GOG. Does the Steam version come without DRM or only feature the easily bypassed Steamworks DRM? If so I'll buy from Steam.Both end up DRM-free on my machine anyway thanks to Goldberg.

>>719979152Only retards use GoG, tricked themselves into thinking old game CDs weren't a license for the product too.
>>719979773>requires updatesits 2025 all games need updates now anon...>singleplayeryep>multiplayeragree with this too
>>719979908nigga we all know we dont buy games but licenses, gog just gives us the games without drm
>>719979152>buyingKek
>>719979152GOG all the wayI get to own it and make copiessteam is just a license
my gripe with gog and modern games is that a bunch of devs don't bother to keep version parity between steam and gog (and of course steam is always the store that gets the most recent patches always)
>>719979152>buying vs renting
What are classic games people bought on GOG recently
>>719979152GOG and I'm a shill but I also realize GOG has various problems, the most unfortunate being devs who don't update their GOG versions in a reasonable amount of time compared to the Steam versions.So GOG is perhaps generally best for patient gamers who buy some time after the release date. Nevertheless, I appreciate those who support competition to Steam and client free options (also like Zoom Platform or Fire Flower games)
>>719979152GOG
>>719979773Right answer
>>719980135Yeah, it's very unfortunate. GOG needs devs but devs don't need GOG generally.
>>719979152Neither
>>719979152Steam, ofc
Anons make a massive stink over GOG and how they own games and stuff but do they actually DO anything with that? You own the game vs a liscense through steam but does that do anything significant for you as a consumer as in you resell or create copies for friends or it gives some other benefit? Im asking mainly because it seems like anons are hopping on this forced bandwagon because it makes them look cool to other anonymous internet shitposters.
>>719979773Yeah GOG isn't a really a place for multiplayer, although some games have cross play with Steam. Although of course old games can come with LAN or similar.
>>719979773This, buying nu-games on GOG is a massive mistake. Buying nu-games is a massive mistake anyway.
>>719979227You realize most Steam games can be easily pirated too right?
>>719980667i love not having to log into steam and thats enough for me to pick gog ver steamalso the steam launcher is kind of bloatware ngl
Steam, pirate the GOG version anywayIf Steam somehow goes down, I'll still have the GOG versionIf GOG goes down, I won't have a Steam version
>>719979152Where they cost less, and often I prefer Gog over Steam.
>>719979152GOG. These days it actively annoys me when I have to buy games on Steam.
>>719980667No I don't believe there's really any major difference. Nevertheless I support GOG because I think they deserve to be actual competition to Steam.
>>719980693There are virtually no nu-games on GOG though. I was extremely surprised they allowed Silksong to be on their platform, or that the Silksong devs wanted to release on GOG at all.GOG tried to be open to indie developers in the 2010s, only to go "I akshually changed my mind, fuck off everyone" in the 2020s.
>>719980910Why tf wouldn't you just pirate the Steam version in the first place? You're just encouraging publishers to avoid DRM-free installer releases by pirating from GOG.
>>719981050I dont think GOG will ever be able to compete with steam because they arent fighting for the same market. Steam sells you fuck tons of any games you want on constant discount, GOG sells you old games that have been gussied up to run on modern hardware. Also GOG is really, REALLY bad at actually doing buisness based on their previous financial reports.
>>719979152gog no contest
>>719981195They sell new games too, it's just that many devs and publishers don't want to bother because GOG is so small compared to Steam.I realize they probably won't ever be "true" competition, but I'm still going to try to help them in that direction. I also support Zoom Platform too somewhat.
>>719979152>Steam WorkshopSteam>no Steam WorkshopGOG

>>719981432>it's just that many devs and publishers don't want to bother because GOG is so small compared to Steam.Its not that GOG is small, its that they dont want DRM. And despite what anons try to convince you Steam isnt involved in if a game has DRM or not, soulless corporate boomers who think piracy is a major contributor to losing sales do. I dont doubt that a large reason GOG sees so few new releases is that they have developed an image of being an enabler for piracy among publishers because they cant rape your PC with the latest DRM.
>>719979152Steam. Used to be GOG until this video dropped https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU-db73BAFI
>>719979152GOG no contest
>>719979152Gog easy, there's just too many steam redditors in here.
>>719979152Steam doesn't work on win7 so gog.
>>719981491Link to this please?
>>719979152steam, cdpr is super pozzedlots of redditors exposing themselves itt
>>719979152gog. i'm not a tranny.
>>719979152if it's multiplayer probably steam since it simplifies making groups, otherwise whichever's cheaper, i like both platforms so i'm fine with either.
>>719981620One anon wrote that people trust pirated GOG installers over pirated Steam contents. But couldn't either be injected with viruses/malware?
>>719979152Steam, yes I am a retard. I'll only buy a game on GOG if its version is better like with Crysis 1.
>>719982065Just fyi, CDPR and GOG are both "sister" companies under CDP https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD_ProjektSo money spent at GOG doesn't go to Red, unless of course you buy a Red game there.
>>719982350Do you need all your games in one place on Steam? Does GOG require exclusives to force people to try a different service?
>>719982578nta, it doesn't by default but as they're business divisions under the same company that company is technically free to move those assets around if they choose to
>>719982578See >>719981641It's a video posted by the parent company, not CDPR.
>>719982648Being honest. Yes, I do prefer them to be in one place. I like sharing stats Steam as well. I like customizing my profile and displaying achievements and all that. It's stupid stuff I'll admit but it's why I use it. GOG is a good service I just use Steam more often than not. Steam feels like what Xbox live used to feel like on the 360 and considering I went straight from that to PC I just prefer it more. It feels like home.
>>719979773This but I just pirate single player games anyway. I'm probably only going to play it once anyway and it's probably abandonware too.
>>719979152Gog shills should kys
>>719982848Fair enough. I still favor GOG but I can see your perspective.
>>719979152>Buying
>>719982972I understand, it's just frustrating when people are unwilling to support worthy underdogs /competition because they're so stuck in their comfort zone. Thus GOG has to get exclusives to FORCE people to try their service.
>>719983060Why are you so upset friend? :) I support Zoom Platform too.
>>719983276Exclusives is what caused me to eternally boycott EGS.
GOG if I can help it. Unfortunately I default to Steam and pretty much always forget to check GOG if I see a game I want on Steam.EGS can suck my cock and balls.
>>719983276Okay lmao. Why are you frustrated over personal choice? Get over it man.
>>719979152>I want to play MultiplayerBoth>I only need singleplayerGOG
>GOG>Buy
>>719979152Only gog allows you to buy games. Steam just rents them.
>>719979152gog-games.to
>>719979152GOG of course. I have a friend/family group and we all go in on GOG games and share the copy. We also have a Steam Beta Family group (unless it is finally outta beta) to share games between us which has 2791 games right now. I'd have got Silksong on GOG if it wasn't in my duped GayPiss Ultijew account that I paid 1 dollar for (the account that was duped) in 2019. I love unlimited free rental services like GamePass. Microsoft seems to have no intention on fixing the exploit either. So many free games for 6 years for only 1 dollar in 2019.
>>719981432>many devs and publishers don't want to bother because GOG is so small compared to SteamLmao no, GOG literally rejects devs of new games without a reason.The only alternative platform indie devs use is itch.io, which actually lets people publish their games.

>>719981491>The service that isn't in danger of shutting down.Why does it matter if GOG disappears one day? You should support them until they do. If they're gone the games still work. I have hundreds of GOG games, their DLC and patches saved on my 260TB NAS.

>>719987102Tell GOG to make their platform like steam and I'll start biting.
I find it very bizarre that people will pirate GOG games but NOT pirate Steam games, when most Steam games can be easily cracked anyways. Why on earth wouldn't you just pirate everything you can? It makes no sense.
>>719987176You mean yours? PCniggers are the ones that killed physical media after all. With Nintendo's face-heel turn Playstation is about the only one still giving a shit about physical media.
>>719987251They have Galaxy, if you really want a client. What specific Steam-only features do you need?
>>719987307Steam offers good service
>>719987514>GalaxyLMAOOOOOOO. 2003 steam is better than that dead client GOG stopped supporting years back.
>>719987307It's just shitposting. If it can be pirated, people will pirate.
>>719987307>people will pirate GOG games but NOT pirate Steam gamesnigger there literally is a forum dedicated in doing just that

>>719987505Snoystation invented "games as movies" shit that still infects the industry to this day. You fags don't even have a mascot. Even xbox out of all brands has a mascot. Truly a sad existence. Make sure to change the batteries in your smoke detector by the way. I know your people always forget to do that.
>>719979152Steam, obviously. I'm not a low IQ goy who fell for the "own your games" lie.
>>719987307Probably because Steam is more than just a storefront. You have achievements, friend lists and forums and whatnot. Don't know anything about gog but I'd imagine they don't have all that.
>>719987801>Doesn't know what he's talking about>Still makes claimsDude I don't even like GOG but you're a fucking retard. GOG does have all of that. Talk about something you know about, research it if you don't, or kys.
>>719987801GOG forums are stuck in 2008. They are terrible. So is pretty much anything else.
>>719979152both
>>719979152GOG, it's drm free and you can actually download the installer and archive it and in the future install it on a PC that's offline.The only issue, it's that you're financing scams like Cyberpunk 2077.
>>719987596How is it better than 2003 Steam?
>>719987528So does GOG, mainly for old games though.
Let's be real here for one second. GOG is fucking ass. The installers are literally the only positive thing about it. There is nothing else.
>>719987971Are you talking about Galaxy being terrible or what exactly? You can just use the installers instead of Galaxy.
>>719987971>2008 forumbased
>>719988116It launched 100% of the time. GOG Galaxy has had issues launching on every PC I've installed it on. The storefront doesn't load half the time. The Epic integration is stuck in the launcher no matter how many times you disable it. It's clear they stopped giving a fuck about it.
>>719988270And the installers are why it's worth supporting and is the best competition to Steam (and Zoom Platform is perhaps the best competition to GOG).
>>719987765>Snoystation invented "games as movies" shit that still infects the industry to this dayThis has nothing to do with sonyMovies were inventible as gaming went mainstream. If it wasn't them it would have been someone else. And really just don't buy AAA slop and "moviegames" disappear entirely.>You fags don't even have a mascot.Who gives a shit about mascots in 2025? No really why would you want or care about mascots in this day and age? I'm 30+ and literally do not give a shit. If you want your mascots go to Nintendo for that.That all being said I'd say Astro Bot is about as close as you can get to a "Playstation mascot" in this day and age.>Even xbox out of all brands has a mascot.

>>719988545You wrote all this just for my opinion to remain the same.
>>719988462Mkay. Well if a client is really that important to you, and you won't do "add non-Steam game" for GOG game shortcuts, yeah I probably can't talk you into trying a store with DRM-free installers. (For the record I don't use Galaxy.)
steam because gayben
>>719988545>>Still using battery only smoke alarmslmao you third world/american or something?Just because you can't hear the beep Jamal, doesn't mean it's not going off.
>>719987945I literally said I didn't know about gog thoughI was just trying to come up with a reason for the question >>719987307 asked. It seemed a logical conclusion with the limited knowledge I had. Not going to do research for 4chan posts though but I'll take your word for it that gog has all that.Then all those things on gog must either suck or people are just biased towards steam.
>>719979152Depends on the Price. In my cunt I can get Cyberpunk cheaper on Gog, but Witcher 3 is cheaper in steam, as an example
>>719988462I will add that a lot of GOG forum users want *less* support of Galaxy. So it's like GOG is split between two groups.
>>719988787>DUDE I LITERALLY SAID I DIDN'T KNOW, THIS SHIELD ME FROM THE CRITICISM I GET FROM MAKING BASELESS CLAIMSok bro
>>719981130The funniest part of Silksong release it that it's on Gog but not on ebin

I like gog but it doesn't offer a lot of things steam does, like forum, community, workshop, extensive reviews etc. If they sell the game cheaper then I'd consider it but at the same price point then steam wins every time.
>>719989010epic only deals with exclusives nowimagine NOT wanting silksong on your platform because you chose a bad business practiceimagine the disaster that their shareholders will unleash when they don't get GTA6 either
>>719981130Pretty sure GOG knew it would sell gangbusters, the more surprising part is the second part you mentioned, the devs bothering with GOG.They might be having fewer indies release to cut down on number of games not being updated.
>>719989229>forum, community, workshop, extensive reviewswho the fuck needs any of that? single-player games don't need social media attached to it, what a disgrace
>>719989202>Yes and said opinion is worthlessGlad we agree your opinion is worthless.
>>719979908and yet you were essentially purchasing a lifelong licenseas long as you had the cd you could do whatever you wanted with it in the privacy of your own home so long as no one discovered (KEYWORD DISCOVERED) you were doing illegal things with it
>>719989198Yes I've heard good things about Heroic. They're a part of GOG Affiliate program actually. https://heroicgameslauncher.com/donate
>>719989350Forums often have answers for workarounds to bugs. Community have guides. Workshop sometimes have decent mods. Reviews are still one of the best indicators of game quality.SUrely you don't NEED any of those and you can get it elsewhere. But for the same price why wouldn't you take more?
>>719989293this is not true, stop pulling shit out of your ass retard
>>719989350The Workshop and Steam Input are more than enough reasons to use steam. Easily accesible mod support AND an easy get out of jail card for controller issues
>>719979152Steam. I just find it more convenient.
>>719989229They do have forums but aside from the main General Discussion one they're pretty dead. https://www.gog.com/forumThey have a few one-click mods but yeah you're generally supposed to do modding the old-fashioned way.https://www.gog.com/en/games/tags/mod
>>719989356>N-No youThanks for the concession
>>719979152pirate the gog versionbuy on steam if i really like it
>>719989350Nta but even as a consolefag I've benefitted many times from the steam discussion forum and guides.
>>719989785Yea that's another good point. GOG is trying to add something similar to a workshop but it has to be curated and it only supports a few games.
>>719986029I'm a lead architect for IT infrastructure at a government agency so they're all SAS HDDs (helium) or thicc boi SSDs (kioxia). And that is usable storage after redundancy. They're not rack mounted exactly. My wife designed a wall mounted HDD chassis to house them, So they're all in 3 rows with Noctua IPPC 3k RPM fans blowing across them. They come in to a bunch of HBAs and connect over dual 10Gb SFPs to our switch. Unraid server with a 3950X and a couple of Intel ARC GPUs for transcoding and such. Our emby server is baller. Can stream anywhere in the world over own VPN with a web proxy. Have 5 Gigabit fiber internet at home with no data cap. We have a huge chunk of the zLibrary ripped to it too, but I need more storage to fit it all while there are still mirrors online. About 100TB is just high quality HDR/Dolby Vision media with a minimum of 5.1 uncompressed audio. Important level of quality since we have OLEDs and an Atmos setup in the livingroom/bedroom.
>>719989919Who's conceding? Your platform is literally vanishing right before your eyes.
>>719989976Why even buy the Steam version when you could just pirate that too?
>>719980667Your access to online content can, and eventually will be, taken away. Case in point, Steam recently removing hundreds of games from the storefront due to pressure from payment processors. By having a local backup of your online purchases, you retain access to your digital property without relying on a third party. GOG doesn't need to offer anything more than that for it to reflect the greater value, at least so far as single-player games are concerned. Maybe you don't care enough about losing your games for any of that to matter, or more likely you're just a shill looking to muddy the waters talking about "forced bandwagons", but for me it's enough reason to buy my games from another storefront.
>>719990359Can you read? Genuine question.
>>719979152Steam. Unless GOG is cheaper. Or its a porn game kek
>>719987505>physical mediaOh my FUCKING GOD SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT PHYSICAL MEDIA ALREADYThe real enemy is DRM and physicaltards like you are either paid shills distracting from that or retards who fell for it. Consoles have been proprietary DRMboxes since the fucking NES. The console can refuse to play "your" physical disc just like it can refuse to play "your" digital purchase. The medium the bits are stored on doesn't matter for shit if there's DRM attached. PC is the only platform where you can truly own your games either by cracking them, pirating them or buying from GOG.
>>719990378>Buy on steam>Backup your own games to SSD>Use SSE to play games that use DRM You have a known good copy of a game with no viruses. I still see buying games on steam as okay so long as you're proactive. >Steam recently removing hundreds of games from the storefront due to pressure from payment processors.People that payed for those games still have access to them
>>719990424You already have the pirated GOG version, why would you buy it just to have it on Steam? You can easily pirate most Steam games anyways.
>>719990424Or I'll ask this way: what Steam features do you want so much that you aren't satisfied with the pirated version?
>>719990353If you think that image means no PS7 instead of PS7 game will be available on more than the PS7 you are retarded.>>719990645Didn't read your post aside from the first sentence but it looks like you've got a stick up your ass over physical media.
>>719991009If I liked the game I just want to pay money for it, it makes me feel better : )
>>719979227it's harder to find gog releases than steam ones
>>719991207You have to actually be retarded if you think that isn't a sign of a dying platform. Not surprising for a snoy of course.
>>719979152>fit-bitch
>>719987505all >>719988035 on a mere usb key
>>719991603>hey guys, I cracked this GOG game!!!!!!!!
>>719979152Steam because my library has been consolidated there for the past 22 years, but I'll still torrent the gog installer so it can go on my backup discs.
>>719991554But there must be a reason you didn't buy it on GOG, so I assume Steam features are very important to you.
>>719987505>killed physical mediaMy GOG games on a RAID array are far more physical than Basedstation negro games. No one can take it away from it. It is mine forever. When Sony turns off PSN most of your games will stop working, when the PS5 dies your games are vapor thanks to the on-disc DRM, and when they begin to ROT in 10 years they're gone. My GOG games will exist for as long as civilization exists and I live. I have two off-site backup servers too at my mother-in-law's house and my sister's house. Not to mention physical copies on flash drives and blurays (tho those will rot long before HDDs/SSDs will).
>>719991969Cheevos and stuff are nice, yeah. GOG just has no soul.
>>719991660>beg for sony games for decades and cry exclusives are anti consumer>finally start getting sony games>Ha ha sony is dying!You fags are never happyThat being said the age of exclusives is over and I for one am glad. I'm a PSfag but I'm happy everyone else can also play my games and more importantly also play with me because crossplay is finally a thing you can expect multiplayer games to have nowadays. You fags were right about exclusives being anti consumer.The multiplatform Sonic Racing Crossworlds completely obliterating the exclusive Mario Kart World is a perfect example of exclusivity only hindering your platform.
>>719979152Steam, GOG refuses to have linux support.
>>719990351Sounds like a very nice setup.

>>719979152>Game is available in both. Where are u buying it?I usually pirate games, but if I buy, then it's on steam. I just am used to it and having all games in one place is comfortable. I know this is the wrong choice, but I am a brainless consumer, ig.
>>719987739I seriously hope you don't pirate shitty steam version of games if gog version exists.
>>719991981>RAID arrayOkay clown now lend me 1 of the games on your disc box. Or sell me one.Yeah no physical media is more than just game storage. It's also about being able to buy, sell, lend and gift games. Are you going to give your cousin little Timmy a raid array box thing for his birthday and announce yourself to your extended family and friends as some neckbeard virgin creep or something? Or are you just going to buy him a game like a normal person.Didn't read the rest of your post because you're a clown.
>>719979152Gog
>>719992908Dammit man, just buy from two stores.
>>719993090I can export a game onto bluray, put it in a blank DVD/Bluray box, print out box art on my highend printer and sell you that. But why would I sell precious indestructible irrevocable games to a jackass who can't appreciate the concept of true ownership?
>>719992908This is why exclusives have to exist, to FORCE people to try something new. Why else is EGS doing it?
>>719979152Ideally GOG. In practice, a lot of titles will show up on only Steam, so I have to decide at that point how much I really want the game. Occasionally I still want it so I pick it up on Steam, majority of the time I'll just pass.The only time I generally go for Steam first is if it's a multiplayer title.I'm finding myself playing less and less MP as time goes on, though.
>>719993879To make the new generation just like the anon you replied to but for EGS instead.
>>719993939Yeah Steam is probably best for multiplayer.
This might be a hot take but I only use GOG to buy Good Old Games.
>>719979773Correct.
I would say GOG on principle, but I bought Arkham Knight in both long story and the GOG version doesn't work with my controller.Steam just has a few cool advantages (like Steam controller support), despite being a resource hog DRM.
>>719995125What if the Good Old Game is on Steam too?
>>71999576198% of the time, old games on GOG have less issues on modern systems.

>>719996652no one mentioned epic yet, timmy
>>719996825I mean, that one doesn't even apply either because Fortnite will keep them afloat.
>>719981491The games you bought from GoG are still yours even if they die, retard.
>>719996652Steam will be forced to ask you for ID to play your games in a year or two with the way things are going. I've decided Silksong is the last game I will buy on steam until I am convinced this won't happen.
>>719979152I like the steam workshop because I'm lazy. Even then, I'll go GoG if it's there. Otherwise, steam if not available on GoG.
If it's an actual old game that GOG put the extra effort into making run better on modern hardware, then GOG. Otherwise, Steam for most games.
>>719988462>It's clear they stopped giving a fuck about it.Everything GOG does is half assed and abandoned quickly, remember GOG connect?
>>719997804>GOG put the extra effort into making run better on modern hardwareDont you mean games they steal fan made patches and cracks for?
>>719996618You mentioned Steam controller so I thought that's what you were using.
>>719979152>buysome russian forum
>>719998089Are you a bitter Zoom Platform Discord user? GOG Connect was just a limited time marketing campaign. Nice chip on your shoulder.
>>719998158Who gives a shit about them using pirate cracks, or fan patches if they get permission?
>>719979152steam because i want others to see what i play cuz people must know how much good taste i have
>>719996652People have been saying this for like a decade now. Yet GOG keeps going. (Is there evidence that they get handouts from their sister company, CDPR?)
>>719979152Steam. Where the fuck is GoG Galaxy for Linux?
>>719998835If you add a non-Steam game to Steam, do they still show up?
>>719999010No
>>719998987Just use Heroic. It supports Epic, GOG, and Amazon Prime.https://heroicgameslauncher.com/You can also buy GOG games to support them, though I'm sure it's a small percentage.https://heroicgameslauncher.com/donate
>>719979227I'll support them so people like you can keep doing that
>>719999225NTA, but thanks anon.
>>719979152>be me >mutt>third world and first>can use first world bongo bucks in third world regionally priced GOG store with paypalRight now the alters is like 26 bong pounds, but thanks to regional pricing I can snag it for about 16.19 yank dollars, which comes out to roughly 12 pounds. I also do family sharing with some friends (shows up on the GOG launcher as subscription games), so I only really grab stuff on Steam if I wanna play with them or if one of them is into it too. Just played Expedition 33 through family share. feels good. (‾◡◝)
>>719992470GOG just started adding one-click installs for famous mods, you know, the usual "must way to play" and old classic.Or shit like a one button install for Ashes if you own Doom.Very nice feature.
>>719999805>Very nice feature.Yep another nice feature they will drop in about a year or so and then pretend like it never existed
>>719999805It is nice, just be aware there's only like a dozen or so currently.
>>719979204This. None whiter.

>>719979152>in both
>>719979204fpbp
>>719979152GOG for all old games that can't reliably run on modern hardware by default. Steam for everything else.
>>719979152steam ofc
>>720002426You don't log into GOG to play the game you fucking idiot
Whatever is cheaper
>>719985615I'm a retard who pays to play online, how could you tell?
>>719979152Steam. I prefer to have everything in one place.
>>719979152Humble because both their stores fucking crashed. Weak effort from multimillion dollar company.
>>719979204>>719979207>>719979568what if you already have steam wallet credit? would you still buy it on gog instead of using your balance?
>>720005520i dont have steam wallet credit, i dont even have my credit card saved on steam for a quick buy, i just put the exact amount i need and buy shit
>>719980667I literally have the offline installers on my computer. that alone sets gog apart from all other storefronts and puts them on a level above everything else.the only thing they could offer to make my day is accepting ecchi and eroge
>>720004656it's like 15 bucks a month. It's fucking nothing.Why do PCfags always bring this up but see no issue with spending 2k or more on their rigs? Are you lot actually poor or not?
bought something on gog for the first time in my life because steam fucked up and crashed
>>720007183yea you're right on this. nta but i only paid like $500 for my current setup and the large majority of that was the gpu, so it's about a wash with ps+ or xbl or w/e, but i'm on the low end, people who pay like $1500+ are going to be paying way more overall. otoh i need to have a pc anyway, but if i wasn't gaming on it i could probably get by with a used $50 aio off ebay, so it's basically the same.you can often get games cheaper on pc though, either through isthereanydeal, grey market, or piracy, depending on how much you want to give devs the middle finger. that adds up if you play a lot of games but if you stick to a small handful that you just keep coming back to, that doesn't matter as much.
Anyone using steam is a fucking retard
>>719979152Steam. I try to put everything in 1 library cause I forget what I have on EGS GOG and Steam. I don't give a shit about "owning" games cause technically you don't own shit in this world. If steam ever fucks up, I guess I'll just pirate everything but for now it's too much of pain to download PeePee simulator from a shitty tracker at 5kb/s when it only costs $2.99
Steam because while I like GOG's ethics, they get second class support for updates, DLC, and mods. The convienience factor of steam is nice too. I can add a gog .exe to the steam library of course but installing games manually from the folder is a little annoying in this day and age.
>>719979152Usually Steam, but through Fanatical's deals, as I prioritize what's cheapest. I do occasionally buy on GOG though, just to support them.
>>720008705>but i only paid like $500 for my current setup and the large majority of that was the gpuAre you some 60 tier card poorfag? 2080ti?
>>7200092934060, got it for $300. rest is all used stuff where the price was right, sat on ebay for a while on newly listed until businesses dropped a bunch of old stock and hopped on it.
gaben literally bought a yacht companywhen will /v/tards give up this retarded brand loyalism?when the fuck will steam simping end?
>>7200096325070ti was $500 anon. You could have done better.
I want to like GOG, but they really just don't have that many games. There's tons of games just not on GOG at all. Anythime I bring this up, people just got mad and say 'hur dur like multiplayer games.' But there's dozens of single player games just missing from GOG for no reason. Part of this is because of the no DRM and publishers getting scared. Part of it is because Steam is so old and has games from like 2006 that GOG doesn't give a shit about to buy the rights to. Part of it is because GOG is fucking retarded and doesn't push developers to publish gakes on their site. Also, their preservation program is fucking retarded.

>>720010832I really miss big boxes. I wonder if etsy or eBay sell like, fan PC game big boxes
>Terrible service>Basically fraudulent mission statement that has to be taken way more seriously>Money goes directly to paying shills to make dog shit threads like theseSteam, obviously. I gave GOG way more than a fair shake but they refuse to get their shit together.
>>720010832Gog copied to external
Nobody mentions>the worst fucking download speeds you've ever fucking seen, brought to you by GOG
>>719980614How many of those games do you actually play? i have <5% of that and still have over a hundred I've never even installed.
>>720011163Works on my machine

>>719979152if you ever complained about the current state of the gaming industry and not owning your games you have a moral obligation to yourself to buy from gog.
>>719981130GOG carries new releases, and I’m pretty sure the defining factor is not whether GOG will “allow it”, but rather that the publisher will release the game on a storefront without DRM.
>>720012687I'd rather not buy games from the company that while retarded enough to give out offline installers reserves the right to revoke all your licenses if you annoy someone on their forums.
>>720012849There are lots of complaints from developers saying GOG flat out rejected their game.I don't think it's about the developers. Lots of them are fine with releasing on itch.
