Icrontic reports: "A teaser video was released today that hints pretty strongly that GOG is going to release a Steam competitor"
Save the quarters and blast everything to oblivion at home!
Steam is changing its refund policy, but you probably won’t be affected
Should have happened a long time ago. People wanting refunds after 50 hours in game.
Daily reminder that 'TheGamer' is a corporate-generated, anti-gamer, anti-consumer, clickbait web site. They are mostly A.I. generated articles that villainize gamers. They provide nothing positive and actively try to provoke and divide the community through extreme view points and politics. Do not give them any clicks.
Only scumbags? As if people don't play their games on console put in the most amount of hours and return it to GameStop and trade it in for another game. But also how many people are actually do this? And what games have been allowed to be refunded?
Blindfolding myself and clicking a Steam page at random would serve me better recommendations than Steam’s algorithm
Hmm, not sure I agree with that. The recommendations I get are usually pretty good, but then again I have pretty large library of games on Steam and hundreds of them in my wish list, along with lots of curators I follow for it to build recommendations off of. On occasion it will throw me a random FIFA game or something I've never bought or shown interest in, but mostly its decent IMO.
I think that trailer represents GOG becoming a major digital service that offers both old and new software
I really enjoy GOG; no DRM, easy to download, and some really great games = a service I dig on.
If they do go toe-to-toe with Steam, I'll have a harder decision on which service to purchase my PC games through (though I'll almost always opt for a physical copy anyway).
I'd love to see this happen! Hopefully the competition among them will drive prices down or have better sales more frequently :)
oooh competition is always good. I wonder which digital service gets grim fandago. This is interesting.
I'll have to keep an eye out for this, but I've been really happy with Steam since I started buying games from them almost two years ago.
