GreenDamsel: Shouldn't, by default, the GOG community be more mature than the Steam one, due to a different target demographic?
Just thinking about it without any statistical evidence... I know many teens and tweens and I don't see them being interested in games with "shitty graphics and lol so much txt"

monkeydelarge: I don't think a person's level of maturity has anything to do with age because there are a lot of adults over the age of 30 who act like little children. I've even seen people over the age of 50 act like little children. And I've met people in their teens and early 20s who were very mature. So I don't think having more classic games means attracting a more mature community. And the Steam community has a lot of devs. In order to make the most money possible, they have to sell their games on Steam. And because they are selling their games on Steam, they have to work with Steam so naturally, they will hang out at the Steam forums for their games. It's also beneficial for them to do so because when devs hang out in the forums of their games, it makes people think the devs still care about their games. And it seems, most devs are very mature people or least appear to be so they don't piss off potential customers.
I never mentioned that the demographic for GoG is younger or older than Steam's.
Just saying that the games published here usually don't draw an immature audience.
My example with the teens and tweens is based on personal experience as I have to deal with this demographic a lot and the one quote I gave was one example to further underline my point.

I'll ignore the Dev "argument", because I don't really see the point. Never had the urge to talk to a developer. And many of the indie developers don't seem very mature to me, when they post something. It usually just devolves into drama.

dathip: All the maturity here unlike steam and the amount of games GOG has been getting is making this platform service superior. I am almost done with my steam library and will never touch it ever again. All these games coming like

Grim fandango, kerbel space program, wasteland 2, Gex, witcher 1 and 2, Armikrog, metro last light redux, baldur's gate enhanced, age of wonders 3, trails in the sky, anomaly 1 and 2, king's bounty series, jade empire, fear collection, kotor 1 and 2, divinity original sin, legend of grimrock II, wolf among us, walking dead series, game of thrones, this war of mine, metro redux last light, metro 2033 redux(its coming soon), lichdom battlemage, pillars of eternity, and much more

I have NONE of these games and they are all DRM free. Thanks GOG adn GOG community :D
Careful it will lead to discovering so many great games (check out some older games!) you'll wish you were older so you could have played some of this stuff when it came out!

Glad you like it here, enjoy your stay :)

You mentioned Witcher 1 and 2 -
Whatever you do, get The Witcher 3 if you haven't already. It is one of the pricier games around - but it is worth every single cent.

There is NO SPOON!
Greets and thanks for the kind words!

You'll find that the community here is full of interesting and colorful characters; however, many of them are quite mature (many of them rated M for 'mature') and are sometimes more fun to converse with than playing some of the games.

Since I've been on GOG, I have noticed that they have been starting to get some pretty awesome titles in their collection, I would imagine due to both savvy negotiations as well as help and petitioning from other GOG members.
