Laughing is the pleasure of the ignorant... oops

Why do you think GOG releaes GOG Galaxy soon, their very own DRM platform (which must be DRM based on your own definition of Steam being DRM)? I'll tell you why: because it has a lot of benefits and offers services people want to use. It's really that simple.



Best way to fight piracy? Give a better service than what Pirates give. Steam does exactly that, and the reason why Steam was able to make Russia ( a place rife with piracy that the industry at large ignored it) a profitable region for games, because they give a better service than what the pirates give.

GoG is basically doing the same thing now with GoG Galaxy, making their service even better, to help increase their market share, and to give a better service than what pirates give.

Lets be honest here, Steam give way better service than what pirates give, and a whole lot less riskier as well.
