endruwiggin Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Steam might be the only one to give preload, but GoG gives DRM free version without the client hog, so different people might prefer different things ... what would YOU pick in the upcoming days ? ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eisberg Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I haven't decided yet, still mulling over that decision. Steam is far from being a client hog though, it is using 64MB of ram, which is only about 0.5% of my 12GB of ram =D 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debber Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I think I'm going with Steam. I do like DRM free but Steam lets me track how many hours I've played it, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocVanGogh Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Personally I'll probably go steam, since I like their auto-updates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahvz Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) Steam. GoG doesn't allow me to spam my friends' feeds with PoE content. (that's not to say that I won't buy a GoG version later during a sale maybe) Edited March 24, 2015 by Ahvz 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benbe123 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Steam, preload, easier updates, steam cloud for saves etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O.DOGG Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Probably going with GoG since I have all the Infinity Engine games on it. Plus I think it kind of fits better among the rest of the good old games. Still, Steam's autoupdate is tempting. Peace... piece... of mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mamoulian War Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) GoG all the way. You'll get autoupdate on GoG sooner or later with GoG galaxy. For me, autoupdate is something I loathe a lot. Especially if you have to wait hour or two for few gigabytes big patch instead of playing the game right away. At least PS3 allows you to skip the update if you want to play singleplayer.

StromIV Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Both. I have 5 extra copies. 2 for me and 3 for friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParaB Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Steam. Because I was less than happy with my GoG version of Wasteland 2. Missed a patch, the next one wasn't compatible with my version any more, had to download the full client again instead of a few MB. Sucks if you're on a slow DSL connection. I love GoG, but usually only buy older titles from them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LurkerLito Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 GoG always preferred. My one problem I had with Steam showed me the error of my ways. I only buy from Steam if I can't get a GoG version. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moirnelithe Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Both. But at first I'll play on steam for the updates that are bound to be distributed earlier there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kozzy Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) Steam no doubt. I love GOG for older games that don't update often but for new games Steam is great with its fast updates, can chat with friends, etc..

beyond1 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 GOG without a doubt. I don't see a point in coating the game with DRM just for the sake of (some) convenience. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancingcrab Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I'm getting a DRM-free disc, so my digital edition will be Steam. My internal logic is that I always prioritise owning a DRM-free/non-Steam version, and then take Steam second. If I didn't have the disc copy, I would have grabbed a GOG version. That said, I'd like the opportunity to have a copy on GOG as well. I prefer how easy it is to access their bonus materials (specifically, not needing to have the game installed). The Dude abides.

RadonGOG Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I´ll go with GOG. As I´m a strong supporter of DRM-free gaming this isn´t a surprise, is it? :D Why do we need such a download portal in the first place? Because Obsidian got no way to offer the installers as a download from their own side! (they don´t got that massive bandwidth) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
