I agree with you on it needs more than just ease of use, other comments talk about these other features more.

I disagree on the DRM portion, just as much as I don't think kernel level anti-cheat has any place on Linux. If publishers want that, they can limit themselves to other systems/stores. The main reason I use GOG is I know every game is DRM free, I just wish it had some of the other good stuff Steam has.

    We weren't talking about Linux and we weren't talking about your personal preferences. We were talking about the success of GoG, and competing with Steam.

    If publishers want that, they can limit themselves to other systems/stores.

    They will. And they do. That's the point.
