    And how does that work when they close down and servers that host the games can no longer be accessed to download your license free game?

    Wheter you have a revokabke license or not, you still won’t ever be able to access the game…… how do people need this explained to them? And yet use this single reason like it matters lmfao.

      GOG installer is offline

      You download it immediately after purchase, and should archive it somewhere, same as everything else you purchase digitally

      how does that work

      When you buy a game on a CD or Cartidge, it’s up to you to make sure you continue to own it from then on. That is the same model as GoGs digital downloads. You own it, you make sure you still have it on hand for as long as you want to still have it on hand for.

        You own the media but just have a license for the game. You have never owned a game the media has always given you a license to play the game.
