Considering they have a public website and repo on GitHub for the project, it's not like Nintendo doesn't know about them.

Silent Hill 2 remake has just been released on GOG. Definitely wasn't expecting this to happen less than a year after release.

I didn't think not returning a trolly was something worth defending ๐Ÿ˜‚.

That URL is telling me "Invalid response". Am I a bot?

One of the latest additions to the GOG preservation program is Breath of Fire IV.

Never heard of it myself, but it looked interesting, so will probably try it out this weekend.

Why are offices using k cups? Sounds both extremely wasteful and expensive.

If you live in a small place and dont have massive storage needs, it can make sense for the sake of the quietness.

Doom (2016) just launched on GOG, and it's on offer. I purchased straight away as I really enjoyed this one. Wasn't expecting to see more Bethesda games on GOG after Microsoft purchases Zenimax.

Not sure I understand the comparison. Steam DRM is easy to remove, and there's no device to jailbreak as it's just a PC.

I've had a ROG Azoth (don't judge) keyboard for about a year now. Been using it for both programming and gaming, and I really like it, but there are a few issues (software being the obvious one). So I've decided it's time to put together my own keyboard. I started watching some YouTube and yeah.... I'm out of my depth here.

So I was wondering if maybe people could share things they wish they knew when starting out so I don't mess up to badly.

I've already found this switch tester which I figured would give me a general idea of what kind of switches might be for me. Other than that, I'm not really sure how to proceed ๐Ÿ˜….

I'm not interesting in doing any soldering.

Wonder what age range you have to be in to get this ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜….

Whenever I try and read long posts with several images, scrolling down becomes extremely sluggish. I've attached a link to one such post. Once I reach the replies to the post, scrolling becomes responsive again.

This is on Android.

I just know that for decades people will check the git blame and curse my name.

I got the impression they're aiming more for a "fan club" kind of thing where you get access to articles/videos/Q&A/voting rights, etc. So more a kind of Patreon like many creators have. I didn't get the impression that this would in any way change the business model of the store.

[-] alehel@lemmy.zip 17 points 2 months ago

I think the only way they can introduce a subscription without backlash is if they make it a purely community thing with a few bonuses. Give people access to special insights into their preservation efforts, special interviews, voting rights, Q&A, occasional free game, etc. If they lock features behind this like more cloud storage, or other stuff that customers simply expect with their game purchase, the press will be all negative.

I'd love a gog galaxy client for Linux with proton support. I also agree though, that it probably wouldn't help them become more profitable.

Just did a GOG survey that focused on the idea of a paid membership option on GOG. Seems they're determining what people would be willing to pay extra for. Some of the options were

  • a tool for backing up offline installers
  • ability to install previous versions of a game
  • extra insight into the preservation work they're doing.
  • voting rights on games to bring into the preservation program.

And others that I can't remember.
