Hey, so for some time now i had this problem... I have been buying games from both gog and steam... No drm option is good on gog but there are some festures missing from what steam has, for example being able to buy games from trading cards... What should i do? Focuse on buying games from gog and if there isnt a game then buy it on steam? Or maybe just buy games on steam?

    It's true that gog is better, but to completely misrepresent why people use steam is just disingenuous, it's a better service than practically any other one out there(aside from gog ofc)

    Also, sometimes games on gog don't receive DLC or patch updates because the devs/publisher forget or don't care. I remember seeing an extensive list of games, ~250, explaining what they had missing. I think A Hat in Time was one of the worst offenders

    Here's a gog forum post on the problem - https://www.gog.com/forum/general/gog_is_it_truly_more_difficult_for_developers_to_update_their_games_on_gog/page1

    That's not the point, you're being intentionally disingenuous while not giving all the facts, specifically to prove your point. You don't have the paint the entire picture, but to imply that the only thing steam has to offer is giving money to a billionaire is bullshit and you know it.
