Introducing GOG connect
« on: June 03, 2016, 11:06:58 AM »
Thought this may be interesting to some people here :) Check it out https://www.gog.com/connect

To connect your library with GOG.com, sign in to your active Steam account via this page. NOTE: Make sure your Steam Privacy Settings & Profile Status are set to public.

You'll be able to permanently import all the games listed below to your GOG.com library – assuming you own them. The eligible games are limited-time offers made possible by participating developers and publishers, so stay tuned for more games to come.

You can connect only one Steam account with your GOG.com library. This process is permanent – choose wisely!

I don't really like fragmenting my library across multiple services, so I used to mostly only buy old games and reboots of old games on GOG, so there'd at least be a logical categorization between my Steam games and my GOG games.  I see this new feature as a way to try to counter that inertia Steam has with OCD people like me.

Now that I know that I'll be able to consolidate more of my library on GOG over time, I think I'm going to start favoring them for new games, too.  I hope it has a similar effect on other people; I always felt bad I wasn't supporting GOG -- and, by extension, their consumer-friendly business practices -- more, just for a little extra convenience.
