While the news about Galaxy were intriguing, very little was actually said about it. Can we expect more information about this soon?
Here are a few questions I'd like to have answered. Feel free to add your own.
1. While autopatching is nice, will the client actually download and install the games themselves as well? I assume it will, but as far as I recall, they didn't say. And if so, will it replace the GOG Downloader?
2. So the Galaxy client will connect gamers on different platforms for multiplayer. How? That's what I'd like to know. If the Steam version of a game uses Steamworks for multiplayer, how will Galaxy connect non-Steamworks versions of the game?
3. Will Galaxy only work for games made specifically to support it, or will all our existing GOG titles work on it? If not, will existing titles be updated over time?
Anybody else have questions about Galaxy they'd like GOG to answer?
