GOG is getting acquired by its original co-founder: What it means for youhttps://archive.is/i7KOP
Advertisement thread
so what does it mean for me because you didn't type anything in
GOG made fuckall money this year
>>729660305Nothing yet, i'm sure they'll have some new ideas though. It doesn't seem to be working out as is.
>>729660426you're retarded and can't read a simple statistic
why is this thread dead, we got actual important gaming related news for once
>>729661667No one fucking cares bro
>>729661734yea you would only care if Asmongold was the buyer
Still buying GOG exclusively.
>>729661667You're a retard if you bought anything on gog, how is this news
>>729662595steamies trannies like you need to be euthanized for your own good. dont get mad its just the truth
>As Michał put it: “GOG stands for freedom, independence, and genuine control.”So incredibly white then?
If I could buy every game I ever played on GOG I would. Full price.
>>729663186>most white and male western game dev>also the only one printing buckets of money with no financial troubles whatsoeverGee I wonder what this means.
>>729660225GOG is practically a charityThey are spending money to preserve retro games and then sell them for $2But as a consumer, I have no reason to complain.
>>729661667>Explain how this affects you and me. And be specific.
>>729661667post it then you fuck
>>729663393Without cd projekt, gog can easily go bankrupt in few years
>>729663268that theyre exploitative jews fleecing both devs and customers to the point of a class action lawsuit and countries having to intervene in their businesses to ensure fair business practices that are pro consumer?
>>729663393alternatives to steam existing is important, even if you dont use them.
>>729660305This dude probably has some ideas about how to keep the company afloat, probably wants to go back to the Good old games shit it started with.To be honest here, unless they modernize the submitting process and drop weight from the company, they won't ever be able to be financially viable.
>>729663556Try again without writing fanfiction>>729663883Explain what this has to do with leadership changing.
>>729664270>To be honest here, unless they modernize the submitting process and drop weight from the company, they won't ever be able to be financially viable.I don't even get why it's so bloated to begin with. Like what the fuck are 800 employees fucking doing all day?
>>729661667>important gaming relatedNigga, the store changed owners. Thats like starting a thread because Gamestop has a new ceo that will change things.Its a store, it wont impact games
>>729665427That does sound like a lot, but if you include support staff for various regions, people that deal with IP law and getting new games, IT people for their infrastructure, PR, and payment fuckery. It might not be totally unreasonable a number. I work for a smallish company with a fairly small number of customers doing specialised embedded systems and we still number close to 200 people in total.
>>729660225CD Projekt has been looking grim over the last few years so this is more likely a good thing than a bad thing
>>729663301they also allow devs to include nude patches for hentai games on their page
GoG is the WORST store, I really can't fathom the retards buying their pirated versions of games...
>>729660225>Does nothing>Winds perpetually
>>729661667Because this site has no real engagement anymore, it's mostly just bots and jeets.
>>729660225um, what?
>>729660225ok?
>>729660225I don't fucking care, polish shill>b-but muh le ownershipYou will be getting dronestriked by Ruskis by the time Steam shuts down
>>729667771>Winds perpetuallydamngaben need more fiber in his diet
>>729665160change in leadership will obviously affect the marketplace
>>729661734you cared enough to post faggot
>>729669019nta but never understood this argument, especially now when low effort posting and ragebait farming is at its most common and the entry bar is so n low
>>729665427>Like what the fuck are 800 employees fucking doing all day?Justifying subsidies from the Polish government.
>>729667774>Because this site has no real engagement anymore, it's mostly just bots and jeets.Someone needs to make a Whites only internet already.
>>729670391>Someone needs to make a Whites only internet already.
>>729660225Welcome to old news.
>>729670478This place has been /v/eddit for some already. Nice of you to identify yourself
>>729670391>Someone needs to make a Whites only internet already.The enshitification will continue under morale improves. Or WW3 kicks off and Whites use it as an excuse to overthrow their governments.
>>729660225
>>729666231Anon, valve has 330 employees and not only they run an store worldwide, but they develop games too.To run an store you don't need much more than like 30 or 40 people tops, specially one with such minimal traffic this has.
>>729670805>Whites >overthrowing their governments everlol
>>729660225Aw shit. How do I archive my GOG games properly? I also am on Linux if that means any hiccups.
>>729661667sex
>>729667654>best>"worst"what did he mean by this?
>>729660225Steam is also private you know?
>>729660225>GOG brings very little profit to CDPR>Shareholders go ,,either change shit to milk more money out of it, or just sell it to the chinese or other jews">OG creator goes ,,fuck no, I'm buying it all myself">Doesn't have to change shit or listen to shareholders now>This is a bad thing, because...it just is, okay!?
>>729670391those already exist, its every loli and tranny focused spaces on the internet
>>729670478WHAT DOES THE 4CHAN ALIEN HAVE TO DO WITH THAT? DOWNVOTED!WHAT DOES THE 4CHAN ALIEN HAVE TO DO WITH THAT? DOWNVOTED!WHAT DOES THE 4CHAN ALIEN HAVE TO DO WITH THAT? DOWNVOTED!WHAT DOES THE 4CHAN ALIEN HAVE TO DO WITH THAT? DOWNVOTED!
>>729663556Bankruptcy is when you can't pay debts anymore. Assuming they aren't saddling GOG with debt (it's not leveraged by EA is) GOG can survive on itself because it breaks even.
>>729673698>uses double commas to open quotes>double commas look sort of like upside down quotation marks>Spanish uses upside down punctuation to open sentences
>>729661667We already had this thread yesterday with a hundred posts. But you already knew that and just wanted to make the thread again.
>>729674136That's how half of Europe uses them, you retard.
>>729674386>only eastern europe and iceland The third world sure sucks.
>>729661667Because there's already been at least 4 other threads with the same topic within the last day and people get tired of the same thing
>>729661667PC goyim only care about giving gabe more money for more yachts, they don't actually play games.
>>729675194>GOGlems play games>that's why they have psychotic cultish loyalty to a store with no games
>>729671332>but they develop games too.can't remember the last time valve actually made a game, HL alyx?>b-b-b-b-b-b-b-but DEIlock!technically not even out yet
>>729661667entire site is dead
>>729660225Why did you archive it lol. It's not like they get paid when you read their blog post.
>>729667534Why don't just buy it at dlsite?
>>729661667Unironically? Because it's not a xitter screencap.
>>729661667>we got actual important gaming related news for onceSteamies hate GOG. It is that simple. When you make a GOG thread they will come and seethe.>>729662497Based and GOGpilled.
>>729673698Don’t care, Steam won. Get fucked brownoid.
>>729677542>Steam, based in California>Calls Poles brownoidsokay, Juan.
>>729677829California is more white than your Slav shithole. Newsom 2028 btw.
>>729677829>Steam>CaliforniaRetard
>>729678746What do you expect from a Goggot?
>>729678746Don't care, Patel.
>>729679652Kill yourself Achmed.
>>729661667>gog was bought by gog >gog pledges to uphold prior pledges and expectations Am I missing something, or are these "news" barely news?
>What it means for youIt doesn't mean anything for me because I ONLY use Steam
>>729681215we can tellnot like you buy anyway
>>729679998Steamies shitting themselves and throwing a fit as per usual
>>729681215>furry troon only uses steami am not surprised
>Michał Kiciński, one of the team who founded both CD Projekt RED and GOG (originally known as Good Old Games) is now the sole owner of GOG. The purchase was fully funded by external financing and Kiciński remains the second-largest individual shareholder of CDPR, holding 10% of the company's shares.so instead of being owned by CDPR it's owned by...one of CDPR's biggest shareholders.This literally doesn't change anything. What a nothingburger.
>>729660225Thanks for reminding me. I just switched to Linux Mint and forgot to download my GoG library. Cheers op.
>>729675942They also consistently update CS and DOTA, and they revamped for better or worse CSGO into CS2.
>>729671332Are you sure it's a one-to-one comparison? I seriously doubt Valve handles world-wide customer support with only 330 employees. Without knowing how Valve and GOG are structured internally, it's kind of difficult to compare them.
>>729675942>technically not even out yetduh, they are still developing itit's almost like those devs are indeed at work
>>729682714>I seriously doubt Valve handles world-wide customer support with only 330 employees.And I seriously doubt GOG has at least one employee per language they support, hell, the GOG store quite literally isn't even translated into spanish, the second most spoken language in the world, and they don't do customer support in spanish either.
>>729683097I never claimed they do. I only wanted to highlight that it is difficult to compare the two companies without knowing what the people that work there actually do. How much is done in-house vs how much they outsource. Saying that Valve can do it with 40 to 50 people vs GOG's 800 doesn't tell us much unless we know what they are doing.That Valve as a company generates huge revenue per employee is a fact and nothing I'm trying to disprove.
>>729660426the shareholders wont be happy about this. AXE IT ALL
