    How is GOG? I haven’t used it and have heard noth sides. Owning it alone makes it worth looking at.

      It’s quite alright, but the platform hasn’t really grown in a while outside of its available catalogue. Gog galaxy is still in beta I think and it also still has no Linux launcher yet. Still good for the no DRM part tho

      You can download offline installers that don’t require an internet or licence key to install, so if you back them up I’d say you own them to the same degree you’d own a game on optical media
