What a shit article. Oh no, this minor issue impacting a finite and honestly small number of games is just a scare piece supporting the most profitable marketplaces.

What’s wrong informing any potential customer and player? Provided the data is correct, but that is the assumption for our discussion, as you made a general statement. Everyone should decide themselves.

Most of these issues cover the same games, so their total # of games is greatly misleading.
Also the bias of Windowscentral is widely known. They are quick to trash GOG whenever they get a chance. I wonder why…
And the biggest annoyance is these are Developer issues. Steam probably has close to 100k games that are in similar issue states because developers do not always update every single platform to the latest prod release. This is not just a GOG platform problem.
Hell Playstation Store’s and Nintendo Switch ported games from PC are almost always several updates behind and constantly miss content that sometimes never gets fixed. Just look at Oblivion Remastered.
