Fascinating, thank you for answering

Do you see these eventually evolving into more a practical medical purpose or convenience/commodity purpose or both?

Also give black mesa a try. It’s a half life remake, very high quality. If you have the time do both.

I’ve had a hard time finding cheap working GameCubes.

I wonder if they meant they use desktop sites on the desktop.

I know I have almost completely cut out cell phone use by way of doing everything on desktop. Even texting and calling with Google fi I do on my desktop via their web app. The less I need my phone for when I’m at home the better.

Yeah I was aware of that. I don’t know if that constitutes the last hope for all gaming, but it’s definitely a positive. Other stores have a much better user experience, and until they rival stores like Steam in functionality and ease of use, actually owning your own game is just a very nice to have feature and nothing more. Of course, I wish all stores did that. I don’t want to have to resort to piracy if my steam library goes poof, but so far I haven’t had to, and piracy is still an ethical choice in that scenario.

My point isn’t that steam is better, but that GOG has a couple nice features and several downsides, and it is by no means changing or saving the industry. They have a long way to go, and I don’t think saving the industry is the end goal for them.

In what way? I know it’s great but I don’t know if I’d call it the last hope for all of gaming. It’s a good store front. Their application has better FOSS alternatives and there are other pretty okay ways to buy games too. I don’t follow them closely. Are they doing anything particular that warrants that description?
