Comment on Reminder that you do not own digital games
Ashiette@lemmy.world 1 day agoWhy could you both not be right ? Yes, right now a DRM Free game is the closest thing that we get to owning a game. Yet, that wasn’t always true, we used to have an unlimited access to our video game, executable, as long as we had a disk.
But they took that from us ! 👿

But that’s the point they’re making, isn’t it? With GOG games you can download the installer. With that you also get unlimited access to it.
Given you don’t lose it, but that same argument goes for physical disks.

Exactly, GOG has no control on how you use it, for all intents and purposes it’s yours. You can even borrow the game to your friends if you want. I love GOG, hope they nvr go under
