Wouldn’t Steam, with TF2, be the most costumer oriented?
On being customer oriented on the other hand, Steam could use some improvement.

What’s the blue middle one? Don’t recognize the icon.

Sadly I don’t wear costumes, so I don’t think GOG is for me.

Who made that spelling and the pronunciation though? Seems like two separate people. Gets me every time.

Gog doesn’t have lower prices for poorer regions. Paying 20-50% more for noDRM is no-no for me.

Official client and support for my platform of choice is a big plus only Steam bothers to have.

I love the idea of GoG, but it’s also the only client that forces me to pay in local currency with local taxes when I travel too. Have to use a VPN and change my time zone in settings to get it to let me pay in USD. Steam does it based on billing address and card.

Their acronym is “Good Old Games”, so I suspect it’s a play on that.

Meh, Proton alone makes me like Steam a bit more than GOG. Itch.io is also nice, but for some shitty reasons, they have some problems with my debit card. While it is nice to support small devs, I hate to support Peter Thiel the absolute piece of human garbage with my payment.

Shit buggy client you can’t customize and with integrated ram-eating webbrowser you are forced to launch to play the game. Vs. native hubs that integrate GoG, itch & co seamlessly, setup and runners and all.

Akcthually you can publish drm free games on steam, it’s just that you cannot download an installer. But for some games you can just copy the folder and it’s going to work even without steam. Also GOG enforces drm free games

They were Good Old Games for about 4 years until 2012, when they started selling modern games and rebranded to just GOG, dropping the whole “old games” moniker.
(Yeah, I’m also old. I was there when they rebranded, but I thought it was recently, around 2020!)

I’m confused as to how people with English as a second language even learn the word “costumer”. It’s reasonably obscure!
