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?

I use a decision tree to determine which platform to buy from, by going down this list and selecting the first platform that fits my requirements.

  1. Steam: If the full game is on there, buy. If the game needs an extensive patch to provide all the content, buy from another platform.
  2. itch: If the full game is on there, buy.
  3. GOG: If the full game is on there, buy. If the game needs an extensive patch to provide all the content, buy from another platform.
  4. JAST USA: If the full game is on there, buy.
  5. DLSite: If the full game is on there, buy.
  6. DMM: This platform is annoying to buy from since they dislike foreigners. If the full game is on there, buy.
