Steam continues to dominate the PC gaming market in both players and revenue, but GOG’s new owner believes its success comes down to convenience, not content quality. He says GOG plans to compete by focusing on a curated library of classic and modern titles rather than matching Steam’s scale.

      And they’ll enjoy the game or refund it, since both options are incredibly easy to do.

        Of course but I meant people who buy for buying’s sake, for +1 on the badge.

        There are also some cases you cannot refund after 14 days, happened to me once.

      It’s true, but so are those that run things. Billionaires, politicians, CEOs, they are all.
