And this is why we shouldn’t rely on steam to be the one and only saviour. GoG and pirating is needed so we can make sure we can enjoy our games in the future.
The problem with gog, is that it's owned by CD project red...and they are publicly traded
Gog keeps hitting me with admin access requests when I'm not even doing anything on it. Repeatedly. Until I kill the task. Not a fan.
Because of the DRM free nature of GOG, you do not have to use their GOG Galaxy client.
You could use a different client (like Heroic) or you could just download the games straight from the GOG website.
