    We’re a GoG-first house, here.

    I get that steam dropping win7 was unavoidable based on their shitty choice of browser base, but the alternative was only Firefox and we know how Mozilla-the-app went.

    Anyway, GoG gives us control over our purchased copies, and I like that.

      Why pay for DRM when there’s a legal, user-friendly alternative? GoG is the best. Proof that we can still have nice things.

      I don’t go as far as to boycott Steam, but GoG is my first choice.
