Just did a GOG survey that focused on the idea of a paid membership option on GOG. Seems they’re determining what people would be willing to pay extra for. Some of the options were

  • a tool for backing up offline installers
  • ability to install previous versions of a game
  • extra insight into the preservation work they’re doing.
  • voting rights on games to bring into the preservation program.

And others that I can’t remember.

It’s my second store, but it’s still a distant second to steam.

It’s my #1 shop for games. DRM free (my games, not just a licence) and I support preservation of retro games.

Among a subset of gamers who care about owning the things that they buy, yes
