notpayingforgame: How will this work with non-bought GoG content? I buy GoG games, but I also give Mac versions of the setup programs to my dad so he can play too, and I've pirated a few GoG games that I wasn't sure of the purchase on. But, will people that pirate a game be able to play it online through Galaxy without issue, or will that be locked off? If you try and play a game that you don't own online through Galaxy, will it lock the game down?
Pirating gog games is like .... shitting where you (edit : we) eat you know ? I commend you for being honest about that, but just don't ever pirate a gog version of a game please. I seriously don't care much if you pirate games .... just not a gog version.

edit : sorry for bad language, swiss pirates can facehook me in reparation.

The devil is in the details, indeed!

This is great news!

Looking forward for Galaxy...

P1na: Rep will now be taken from your in-game achievements. This links means that, when downrepped, your achievements will also go down and your saved games will continually lose stuff, making your characters weaker the less the community likes you. This is 100% waranteed to eliminate ALL trolls and scammers on the forums!
Maybe. Have some just in case.
Bwahahahaha, that made me totally crack up, thanks for the laugh! LOL

Yes you'll have to be constantly logged in. You will also have to sacrifice one goat daily and like the soles of Judas' feet.

Presumably it works like the downloader if it's running in the background, polling periodically for updates, or working like a web browser (like other game clients) for when you're using the chat/social features or other stuff.

This is why I'd like to see official API support for third party clients (see this thread: http://www.gog.com/forum/general/third_party_clients).

That way, whatever they do with Galaxy, the community could create more options for those that want a client to do only a few things.
On a more serious note, I hope they don't put flouride in it.

It's easier to put cyanide.
Can someone please briefly explain what Galaxy is? I'm guessing they talked about it on the stream, but I couldn't watch it because of slow internet speed :/
