They don’t really though. I haven’t been on GoG in a minute, but when I was looking for an offline installer (I think for Cyberpunk?), it was very easy to find it
well they should make it at least slightly usable. people harp on epic launcher when this piece of shit barely functions 20% of the time. if you have a big library, it’s useless.
or it was, I stopped trying to make it with when i realized playnite exists.
yes. I’m talking about library including integration, which is the only reason I wanted to use galaxy to begin with. it fucks up all the time, losing games, not updating, logging out … not to mention its generally slow and clunky. playnite doesn’t look as nice but it’s 100x better in every other way.

Galaxy is a necessary convenience for them to compete with Steam tbh
That doesn’t mean they should abuse psychology to get us to download it.

Yep, in small letters under the big flashy DOWNLOAD button that is actually GOG Galaxy.
As I said, that’s a dark pattern.
