I really liked the Gwent game in Witcher 3, and i would totally get this except I am (most likely) literally the worst player at this game. Seriously. I have the Gwent difficulty set to easy, and I still lose around 80% of the games I play.

Thx for the BETA key GOG :)

Regional Discriminating Pricing, Early Acess, Steam Like Client (Galaxy) and now this.

"because everyone is doing it"

GOG is fast becoming what many (this case me) came here to avoid.
Don't be surprised if one day Galaxy is required to download and install games because "it's easy and convenient" and other form of DRM pops up because "We need DRM to bring in more games"

about youtube account - you can then disable it by going to access permissions here, but all data minig will already be done though

Just to add my voice, GOG account should be more than enough for the "privilege" of BETA-testing.

I'm a happy Galaxy user, but do feel even that is a lot to ask for access to beta testing, as long as you're not using that to distribute the many beta patches.

I'll pass on Gwent for now. I'll maybe check it when it goes live.

Lads, there is link below gleam.io box called "Using GOG Galaxy? Click HERE instead." So you can use gog account to get a key.

I'm not against linking my accounts, but the gleam.io wants too much privileges to these accounts. Why they need to manage my youtube account??? They can read the public data, I don't mind, they are public anyway.

Actually, this message is there because the widget doesn't appear to be working for some people when accessed through Galaxy. The link takes you directly to the corresponding Gleem.io page, alleviating this problem.

GOG, this feels wrong: microtransactions and privacy-invasion by third parties.

You risk loosing what people like about your services.

Granted, I'm not forced to buy this game, but allowing these practises will damage your reputation and givea incentive to publishing houses to introduce those horrors to future games distributed here.

I would only consider this game when it would offer a full deck on purchase and LAN server capability.

We’re really sorry to hear that some of you on here aren’t happy with the way Gleam.io works. However, for now, Gleam is the only tool that we can use that allows us to do giveaways of this size, which is precisely the reason we’ve used it here and will be using it in the future. If we were to conduct giveaways by ourselves, without using a third party site, we wouldn’t be able to offer our users as many opportunities to win as many prizes, and the process from entering the giveaway to the winners being chosen and to the winners receiving their prizes would take a lot longer than the standard time we can adhere to while using Gleam.

As far as your personal data is concerned, if you have any questions or there’s anything about this giveaway that worries you in regards to your privacy, please refer to the full giveaway T&Cs as well as the Gleam privacy policy here: https://gleam.io/privacy. If you’d like to participate in the giveaway but aren’t keen to enter due to fear of data-mining, you can always, as per the mentioned T&Cs, get in touch with CDPR at legal@cdprojektred.com and find out how you can exercise your privacy rights.

Last but not least, we know that some of you aren’t huge fans of using social media in such giveaways/contests. In the future, we’ll always make sure that there are ways for you to participate as well, without the need to tweet or go onto Facebook at all.

I see folks getting riled up this morning...hehe... If you are afraid of social media, data exchange, "big brother watching"... get more board games and stay off the Internet. Not sure why people complain.. Just don't get a beta key... no big deal. Plenty to do and see in this world without this one "not yet done" game. Again, support more board games.

That tells me a lot about GOGs skills, morale and ethics in 2017 If you can't properly market this game without the help of a privacy invading third-party. You used to be better than this :(

Gog Went to pay2win, microtransactions and privacy-invasion...
really I don't know if I can justify something like this on gog.

PS. by the way GOG Galaxy suck. there is no reason to use it instead of the browser or Gog downloader. It doesn't support save cloud (even with a simple dropbox or others 3 party account) it doesn't support add games not bought on gog...
