Gog has been my preference for a few years now, but there's no way I'm subscribing to a patreon that gets me literally nothing. I honestly assumed at first you'd get something out of it at first, like a free game from the preservation program every month or something similar to Amazon Prime's giveaways. Its honestly cause me to start to re evaluate how much I purchase from them. Its kinda skeezy.

    What Patreon? It's just "patron" isn't it? What I see is the digital equivalent of a tip jar that shows up during checkout. Ignore it if you want.

  • I assumed it was a Patreon because of the name, but its still a for profit company asking their customers for donations in the form of a monthly subscription so they can sell you more games. You don't get anything tangible out of it, just a private Discord and a badge on your name.

    Its skeezy no matter how you spin it.
