       @lexd0g There are still DRM-free games on GOG. But major publishers abuse their position with DRM.

       @Exagone313 @lexd0gAnd guess what? People that buy on GOG are generally pretty happy with their user experience. Heck, pirating a game is more annoying than installing it through GOG because the downloading process is more involved, and pirates probably just ship the GOG installer right in already. GOG is what buying games should feel like in 2023But NO, you need to buy your games in the walled garden, and they need to be tethered to the Elastic Band of Disappointment™️ that is called internet

       @lexd0g Games are not that bad, it's easy to get DRM-free titles.This gap is more visible in movies.- launch a qBittorrent- search for any move- watch with your default playervs whatever the crap is now going on with current services.

       @Archivist @Exagone313 @lexd0g I try to buy games first directly from the devs and if not possible I check Itch.io / gog.com.I've written native linux packages for some of my games for extra convenience.

       @lexd0g when are game stores gonna put limitations on whether or not you can have a bullshit extra launcher layer before playing games you buy. i feel like with a de-facto monopoly and "pls i give u 2 billion can u put jame on here" they can at least use that power to strongarm shittier devs

       @lexd0g @ipg I feel like at the time they'd have just pulled their games out of Steam into their own bullshit tiny brand store so you'd still have to go through them and their launcher, like Epic did.Maybe now that so many of them failed to pull it off Steam could pull their weight to make them to quit it with the launchers.(and then they'll get sued for it by Epic :meowsip:​ )
