  • DRM can still ruin the user experience a lot.

    For a simple example, I have bought Fallout 3 on Steam, but I cannot run that version on Steam on an old Windows 7 machine by default even though its specs are enough to run it, I need to do some workarounds to launch Steam in the first place, and at that point I’d rather download it from a pirate site.

    How would my experience be on the same machine with GOG? I can download it directly from the site, or if I cannot connect to it because of browser incompatibility somehow, I can save a downloaded copy to my flash drive from another computer, then transfer its files and it works.

    Some old games might not implement Steam DRM and therefore work with the file transfer, but it doesnt work all the time. On GOG it always works because no DRM.









  • Splitgate AR. The game experience is unmatched compared to any FPS I’ve ever played. Sure, the gunplay feels close to Halo, but you need to be very aware of portals you can use, and possible enemy flanks. Races can teach even beginners how to use portal play to move all around the map really fast

    I sort of get why most people couldn’t get used to it. When players are zooping around everywhere and you play like a sitting duck especially when you first step into the game, it probably feels like a tryhard game, and it’s really difficult to step into that kind of game given the current era of fps games with skill based matchmaking all around. But once you learn playing around portals, there’s no other fps that become as intense as it.
