I mean, yeah. Not downloading your installers is a bit like buying a disc at GameStop and telling the cashier to hold on to it until you want to play it
I suppose that’s true enough. while the GOG library is all DRM free, I guess I don’t really see the practical difference, since I can also play all my installed steam games offline too. don’t get me wrong, I will check and purchase through GOG first, when there’s better deals, but I have a decent sized library that I can’t have it all downloaded, so in my use case, it’s effectively the same. I can still download delisted games on steam that I’ve purchased, but if either steam or GOG shut down servers, I’ll be outta luck
not that I disagree with you, but what happens if GOG’s server get shutdown for whatever reason? would that put us out of anything we didn’t download?
