GOG.com on Game Ownership [Oct 11, 2024, 6:57 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
GOG.com had some fun at the expense of
rival store Steam in a
posting on X
following the news that
Valve has a new checkout warning reinforcing that licensed games on Steam are
not owned. All games sold on GOG are DRM-free, and cannot be revoked, resulting
in a little pwnership on ownership:
Since checkout banners are trending, we're thinking of putting one up ourselves. Thoughts on this one?
A purchase of a digital product on GOG grants you its Offline Installers, which cannot be taken away from you.
I hope we can get the EU to move on clarifying digital ownership, because the US let that ship sail long ago.
I really need to move my butt over to GoG whenever possible.
