i guess the worst part is, is that the information on the pages take up too much screen space. before it was short and sweet. i never had a problem with the game pages much although i do like the verified reviews. if you filter witcher 3 goty, verified, english, post release. there are no reviews!

It's awful. The amount of information per screen has been drastically reduced. The redesign resulted in even more scrolling to get the essentials like OS support, ratings and reviews.

Is there a wishlist for getting the old format back, perhaps as an option in our profiles?

I would like to report this person. He adds nothing to the discussion. Not even his opinion. He is hating on customers and actively discouraging them from speaking. Gog would be better without this person.
The game pages could be so much better with a bit of tweaking, most of which has been mentioned already, for example the HUGE banner (and Buy Now button) at the top taking up three quarters of the screen space is not too clever as it means having to scroll down to get game/specs info etc. instead of it being in view when the store page opens. As it stands when the store page opens it gives me nothing of value regarding game information.

Another thing I've noticed is that screen shots now take longer to open - I'm guessing this isn't universal to all but it is noticeable to me.

And finally, no links to the games forum on the store page.

And on a personal level, I dislike the 'Popular achievements' section. It seems to be out of place and sticks out like a sore thumb. Maybe it would be better placed below system requirements.

Anyway, it'll be interesting to see how the pages evolve, it's a good sign that GOG has already listened and changed the auto-play videos...

Uilos: The old look had a more professional look and was easier to use.
To be fair, GOG stopped being professional the minute they boasted FCKDRM.

Isn't this just normal behaviour? Everything new is bad, everybody goes "we had it so much better in the past", remniscing how there never was a need for a change, then after some time people get used to it and start to speak positive "It's actually not so bad, it might even be an improvement".
Every re-design of everything gets hit with "This sucks! I want the old back!" at first.

If you just had a gogmix that you put 4 years of effort into rendered useless, or had a bunch of your reviews gobbled up by the website (and had the surviving reviews reformatted in such a way they now display as horrific walls of texts) or had your privacy breached thanks to gog now displaying the number of games in your collection next to your reviews, maybe you might feel a little dismayed as well.

The new layout of the store pages looks unnecessarily messed up a bit.
The previous one felt and looked natural and intuitive.
Hit and miss. Being able to scroll through review pages from first to last is nice. The larger font? sizes seem easier on my aging eyes, that's nice. Still, don't care for the windows 10-style format with the big promo pictures, and I hate the pic/video window slide icons being those tiny slit things. Hard to see, even harder to click and drag. Overall I'd give the new format 5 beer burps out of 10.

Biggest change needed is one that hasn't been touched. The forum. It's needed restructuring and child/sub thread stacking for years now. But I think most of us have given up on that one long ago.

Oh, GOD. That's what I said deeply and intensely when I wanted to see a game page. For a moment I felt like I was visiting that horrible EA's game pages.

Also, I checked a few games I received and sadly noticed that my reviews are messed up. They look like a block of words, no paragraphs, no spaces. Here is an example of what I am saying for Evil Islands. The review I wrote looks terrible now. Even I had a headache while trying to read it.

When we asked to fix the store pages, that was not what we meant GOG.

Emob78: The larger font
I think it's the same or very similar to what was before?
Edit: I'm using linux, maybe it's different for windows for some reason.

I'm on Debian 9 and font got much bigger for me too. It depends on your system replacement font I guess. I used dejavu variants, maybe you're using something different. I have noticed that gog uses own fonts, not sure if they introduced it with new update tho.
