I mean more power to you. I’m not out here to defend Valve. I’m here to say “giving GoG isn’t giving me the return on investment giving Valve money is.”
Linux gaming and a stable Linux desktop is my #1 priority. Valve has put a lot of effort and money into making that happen. They also do have (as I said) DRM free stuff in their system.
I don’t backup my games because most of my games are multiplayer games that (for me) are play for a while then (fairly) throw away. My favorites right now are Hunt Showdown and Last Epoch (if the servers shut down I’m out of luck).
You started this conversation with “buy them on GOG” (market for a large company … CD Projekt Red … yourself) and I’m saying, “no thanks, if they did these things I’d consider it”.
“Good for you, not for me.” applies here.
It absolutely does.
I do take issue with the idea that shilling for Valve versus GOG is on the same level, though. CDPR’s entire market valuation is like 20% of Steam’s revenue for one year. Based on best data available CounterStrike loot boxes make more money than all of GOG’s store.
I’m not shilling for GOG. I’m shilling for DRM free stores in general. GOG just happens to be the one that has these EA games, but if you can find what you’re looking for in a different place with a DRM free mandate go for that!
