GoG checking in with no arbitrary server requirements! Why reward companies for treating you badly?

When companies treat me like a sucker, I move on to companies that don't.

Yep, all my GoG games would be installable without internet if I have the installer downloaded, games without DRM bought from the devs directly like Factorio would also work just fine. Loads of games are available outside of steam, some are even on github for free.
