Visiting the site again I was rather alarmed to find that the offline installers are called 'backups' and put away into a drop-down menu. For me, at least, these are primaries, not backups; I have no intention of using Galaxy at any point.

I Do not think offline installers will disappear from the site, Otherwise I will huddle into a corner with what I've already downloaded before, and some story books from storiescastle.com/ and will never, ever look at GOG again.

LEGITIMATE BITCOIN EXPERT RECOVERY / VIRTUAL FUNDS RESURRECTION


I’m Jonah, a lawyer from Zurich, and my journey into the world of cryptocurrency began a few years ago after a client introduced me to Bitcoin. At first, I viewed it with skepticism, but as I delved deeper, I realized its potential. After mining my fortune and making strategic investments, my portfolio had grown to an impressive $700,000. I felt like a savvy investor, riding the wave of the digital currency revolution. However, my excitement turned into despair when I lost access to my wallet due to a computer crash during a routine system update. It was as if my financial future vanished in an instant. I had kept my recovery codes in a secure location, but in the chaos that followed the crash, I realized I couldn't find them. I thought I had lost everything, which was a bitter pill to swallow. As I sat there staring at my computer, I couldn’t help but joke with my colleagues that losing access to my Bitcoin was like finding out my favorite restaurant had closed permanently: “How can I invest in my future when my future has just decided to take a permanent vacation?” After weeks of fruitless attempts to recover my wallet, I was on the verge of giving up. I tried several recovery options, but nothing worked out for me. I felt like I was staring into a dark abyss with no light in sight. Just when I was ready to write off my investment, a fellow lawyer recommended VIRTUAL FUNDS RESURRECTION. Despite my initial doubts, I decided to contact them, hoping for a miracle. To my surprise, their team was not only responsive but also incredibly professional.. They quickly put my mind at ease, guiding me through the recovery process step by step. Within just a few weeks, they managed to recover my wallet and restore my funds. VIRTUAL FUNDS RESURRECTION is the real deal. They turned what felt like an insurmountable loss into a victory. If you’ve lost access to your Bitcoin, don’t hesitate to contact them; they will get you back on track. I couldn’t be happier with their service. Thanks to them, I’m back in control of my investment, ready to navigate the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrency once again.

If offline installers ever disappear from the site, I will huddle into a corner with what I've already downloaded and never, ever look at GOG again.

I have a very atypical gaming setup that includes a PC which does not have internet access. This means I NEED to be able to download the installers on a different machine and transfer them to my main with an external drive.

I realize that specific situation probably doesn't apply to anyone but me, but whatever. The fact is that GOG is the only reason I am able to play any game from the last fifteen years.

The great thing about GOG is that unlike Steam, you don't have to install the stupid client. So the offline installers are the main reason I am here.

WHy is this thread here, do they want to change this feature? And become a 2nd "steam" or what? :)) No idea, but ofc this is a main reason to buy and d/l games here. Steam now sux I do not like their client at all, their site is ok I guess. And I bought games (2nd hand cheaply but still) on DVD (eg EmpireTW and Shogun2TW) which also need steam. Total BS it say small on the back of the package needs steam to "activate" (LOL why would a still buy physical media when it needs some internet service to play also now it seems steam ends support for Win7)... so guess yes keep this for sure. Sorry for the "steam rant" :P

These offline installers are essential because they allow us to keep safe backups of our games, so that we can install them without the need for an internet connection.

There is no problem with calling the offline backup installers backups or putting them behind a drop-down menu, as long as they're still there. I don't play CD Projekt Red's games but I strongly prefer buying other games on GOG because I want them to continue to work FOREVER. I want to show my grandkids when I'm in my 80s.

I had throw away $20 game I bought called 'counterstrike'. It required internet access to activate. After that, I found GOG. Even if the game has some form of data collection, It can't transfer any data if the internet is disconnected! Heh... DRM free is the way to be.

Errr the only reason I buy from GOG is the assurety of having to not being forced into updating to whatever patch is released for a game. Please retain major versions of games. Especially with regard moddability etc. I also don't want to have an online connection to play a game...

The games I have purchased on GoG are golden olds but recently I am repurchasing (SIGH*) some games I have in Steam that the development is taking strange turns and of course updates are enforced, there is no way around them which I find absolutely shameful. This is why I essentially stopped buying from Steamingpile.

Thanks for great games GOG! Keep them coming!

As someone who does not currently have internet access on my home computer, without offline installers I would have made exactly zero purchases from GOG, because I generally download them to a flash drive at my local library. Additionally, the practice in recent years of many games requiring an internet connection at activation has kept me from purchasing games from other retailers, even for games I would LOVE to play, like any version of Civilization newer than IV. If I have to connect to activate and/or play a game, I will NOT purchase that game.

I can't see them getting rid of this feature unless they completely abandoned their status as the DRM-free store, but if they did that I think they'd fold quickly. GOG often lacks the sales and almost always lacks the developer interactivity and timely patches of Steam. The whole reason anyone buys on GOG is that they care about preservation and I think they know that. Without it they're just less-good Steam with a few niche old titles that aren't also on Steam. Like many others though that ability to preserve and archive is priceless to me and why I almost always buy here when I have the option.

As others have said, it would be utterly idiotic for GOG to kill their own signature point. The debacle of Hitman should be a pretty clear warning.

But just for the record : the ONLY reason to use GOG and not Steam, IS the DRM-free access. Without offline installers, their is NO POINT in GOG. So yeah, GOG, never stop offering offline installers.

I hope that this will never happen, yet the fact that some newer games on GOG now force you to have internet access or delete certain functions if you do not have an internet connection while playing those, seems to actually lead us into that false direction. And Galaxy is also no option to me, as it is actually just like another Steam and has nothing to do with what GOG once stood for. You know, I am also only here, since February 2016 by the way, because GOG offers mostly DRM free games and provides offline installers for those. It is vital to me, because only my notebook is having internet access and I carry the downloaded installation files via a USB stick from the notebook to my actual and now nine-years-old Windows 7 gaming computer, which has no internet at all and shall not receive it either. Of course, I have burned them on DVDs as well, just to make sure, but providing offline installers and no forcing of any internet connection is a must-have to me. If GOG should ever get rid of that, which I do not believe at the moment, yet there were already some strange steps been taken (Hitman, Dawn Of War II), then this will be the end between GOG and myself for sure. So, GOG, if anyone of your staff should read this: Please stick to your roots and provide DRM free offline installers, because this is what made you big in the first place and it will come crashing down on you, if you ever should take offline installers away from your customers!

Continuing to offer offline installer executables ensures users can access and install software without relying on an internet connection. This approach enhances flexibility and convenience, particularly in scenarios with limited or unreliable internet access. Users appreciate the reliability and convenience of offline installers, which empower them to install applications seamlessly, regardless of connectivity challenges.

I really doubt they're phasing out their biggest selling point. But I wanted to comment just to add my stance. Gog's DRM-les backups are the reason I use the store. I appreciate they let me backup my own games locally. No offence to Gog, but Steam is the only store I can trust to stay operational for the rest of my life. Gog's trust in me is greatly appreciated. Plus I can install the game on multiple personal computers without installing some launcher on my other computers, I appreciate that too.

I only use Gog Galaxy 2.0 because of the game timer and sorting function, with tags and co.

Absolutely. I don't trust the Galaxies model. If others want to use it fine. But I prefer one I can install w/o it, for that matter, w/o even an internet connection. After the initial install most of my really old games I can just drag and drop whole to a backup and easily drag and drop whole back. They were invented before Windows Registry and therefore run w/o it (they just don't get added to the main menu. Not a bad thing as the menu can get real long w/ a lot of games!)

what made me switch to gog from steam is when they dropped winxp support. I like playing my older games on original hardware as they were intended to be played. The moment when offline installers disappear, i as a client will disappear too !

This wish is almost a troll. I doubt GOG has such an intention, but should they do this, they can sugar-coat this however they want, I’m out for good.

I can fully understand the way GoG might go with forced online installer ! There are way too many websites out where you can just download the GoG games for free. I hate piracy and this already result in lot of money loss if nobody is buying the games here.

This Community wishlist is pointless if only 1-2 people are paying for the game here and all other download the games for free and just use the Galaxy installer to install it. It already cost shit lot of money to get the licenses to provide games on this website !

I still buy here even after buying a game on Steam mainly because of OFFLINE Installers. If GoG moved to a requires Galaxy to install and download I would have no need to ever buy a game here again. The only thing GoG has going for it is DRM-Free and Offline installers. Client downloader/installer/updater = DRM to me. Remember Impulse? They had some DRM-Free games, I bought several that required the client to install. They went under and I lost those games. So yeah Client only Installer/Updater = DRM.

I hate the fact that GOG now hides the Offline Manual Installers in a drop down menu, and calling them "Backups" .. feels like mission creep to me. If they ever switch to everything needs Galaxy, I'm out of here. To me Galaxy is just another process running in the background I don't want to be running, it's also a potential vector for Malware to utilise as an attack on our security (its happened before but GOG very quickly and aggressivley silenced any posts about it and quickly made amends to the Galaxy code).

Offline installers and no DRM are the exact reasons why I belong to GOG. Writing them to my Blu-ray M-discs is the closest there is to owning physical copies of purchased games.
