Originally, yes. Today, not so much. GOG's one unique specialty is DRM-free, but if new games are offered DRM-free, they will carry them and promote them. They do several new releases per week, typically. The pace is increasing, and the company is so profitable, it's starting to look like they are able to get anything the big competitors like Steam can get.



I have never spent so much money on entertainment in my life, but I'm completely comfortable buying without any hesitation from GOG. There are no downsides for me as a buyer, compared to all the alternatives, including developer-only DRM-free source, like is currently done with RimWorld.



I'm so spoiled for choices and things I want that I almost never stray away from GOG to see what else is out there. The only reason I decided to buy RimWorld (if it's on GOG or promised to be on GOG) is because Gnomoria is on sale right now, and it's inspired by Dwarf Fortress. My researching on Dwarf Fortress led me to RimWorld, and I decided it's the best choice to invest my available time and money IF it gets GOG support.



I'm willing to accept a promise for a GOG copy if RimWorld ever ends up on the GOG platform, and I'll buy it on Steam or here with that understanding. I doubt I'll get it though. Despite being DRM-free, the developer seems to be uninterested in GOG. Usually games end up GOG after the DRM market slows down, but there are a lot more first-day releases on GOG now, so I figured it was worth a try to see if I can get the developer's attention and a promise for a GOG copy if I go ahead and buy it now. We'll see if he replies.



In the meantime, I'm probably buying a bunch of other games (on GOG.com) with my RimWorld money. We'll see what happens next.
