Ha! I deleted my own account before they could, jokes on you Ubi!! Jokes aside, fuck ubisoft. I primarily buy games from GOG. Recommended everyone to do the same π
I'm mostly asking out of curiosity, but also maybe for anyone here that'd like to know. But if you buy Ubisoft games from GOG, like Prince of Persia, they won't need the shitty Ubisoft launcher, right?
No sub-launchers on GOG. I think that would violate their no DRM stance.
Didn't know that, thanks. I don't think I've ever bought anything from there but I will if it means no sub-launchers.
Thatβs rad. π€
That is correct!
It depends on the game.
Heroic Launcher on Linux supports GOG, from what ive heard.
What do you need Galaxy for?
I know GOG has a launcher, but I havenβt seen it in a long time. The links on my desktop just go straight to the game executables.
