Dear GOG, you've "done it" again. You've rushed into releasing the profiles without even caring about the people don't want everyone to know a thing about their libraries and time spent on gaming. Some don't even want to know themselves how much time they wasted on playing, which is understandable.

This is the kind of feature that should've gotten more attention to detail, and release it when it's ready. Hint: like a few months later, on your 10th anniversary, without annoying privacy violations that your customers have to put up with. It's very nice allowing anyone to share their activity with others, but I'm sure you can understand not everyone wants that. Why wasn't there more thought into the profile pages, beats me.

This might look like off-topic here, but it's actually on the point I made in my original post - make sure you have something nice to publish for your 10th anniversary. There's enough time to round the rough edges, so please don't rush as you did with the profiles.
September is just around the corner. I wonder if, when and how we'll celebrate the first decade of GOG.

Does anyone have hopes and wishes based on the recent GOG activity? :) I've been a bit out of touch with the website, but their latest initiative caught my attention. I wonder if that's enough for GOG to stand out this year. As I said in my opening post, I'd love to see some more good old games landing here, but I know it isn't easy to get them, and I can't help but notice how the spark (and goals) of the initial GOG faded away in time. So I'm even sure I should have expectations for the 10th birthday. But hope, I'll always have. :)
My only wish is for GOG to be a decent store and a nice place to communicate with other people. Looking at how they have developed over time (don't really care about community, violating my privacy, lack of transparency (no changelogs way too often when a game updates) etc etc), I just expect disappointment, as always.

I always have high hopes for GOG, expecting to see big publisher, new games and a few free gifts to lucky users. But mostly I'd love to see remaining games from Legend Entertainment inc. one which was removed. GOG once hinted something about emulation games from other platform but that would be too awesome to be true. I think GOG is still very good and it will be always better from me than Steam due to the option of offline game installers (my dream since first CD-ROM only games come true).
Indeed, the offline installers are great. I used them and they're great. Obviously, I mean the ones without the spammy GOG Galaxy. As long as the client is incapable of maintaining a local copy of my installers and extra, I have no use for it.

Here's my wildest wish: GOG Galaxy for Linux, with offline synchronization of games and extras.
