I am new here. I am wondering if this is similar to Steam regarding profiles.

Can you view other people's profiles even if you are not friends? Can you even view the playtime on the games they have?

No, not really.

edit: Unless it is some option in Galaxy client which I do not use.

Some of us use a forum tool that exports our profiles out to the GoG Wiki.

https://www.gogwiki.com/

I believe this is what it generates:

Playtime is monitored by the GoG Galaxy client but it doesn't work for some.

I can't see my own playtimes :D (as I don;t use Galaxy) And a good thing too. If I was to actually know how much time I wasted running around Morrowind or Xulima or flying around going "pew pew" in Rebel Galaxy I'd probably be truly depressed :D

Does this dress make me look frilly?

Depends on how many hours you've been wearing it. Lemme see your profile...

isn't the wiki dead?

-Does this dress make me look fat?

-No, your ass does.

Matter of opinion:

Youre post reminded me of the gogwiki. I still have a completely outdated library on it including GOG Galaxy ALPHA :) There once was a way to sync it with your GOG account is this even still possible? Like I said it's been ages I used it.

Edit: Found it - it was in included in BE script. And now my gogwiki is up to date again :)
