Shouldn't need bookmarks, they should be accessible from your games same as they are in the old Galaxy version.
Hi,
Overall I'm enjoying the beta. I have a place to organize the chaos of game platforms.
I know it is quite simple, but can I request a feature of adding a #number for the list view?
Sometimes I am just "rolling the dice" to decide what game to play, and this will surely help me with my randomness...
我前段时间由于其他原因把GOG2.0的客户端卸载了,如今下载不到了,有什么解决办法吗
Steam still appears to be broken for me, whenever I connect it to GOG 2.0 it just loses and connection and says "Offline/Retry". I really hope they get around to fixing it as I have had this issue since last year.

Just to be clear, now you can bookmark the forums of every single game to see them in the left column.
This saves you some clicks to access the forums if you normally launch games directly from the thumbnails (without entering to the game page).

Also, for the ones missing the game listing to the left, all the games could be bookmarked too, so them will stay to the left like in the old client.
The only drawbacks of the left column are that bookmarks are missing the game icons, and that you have to manually bookmark the games first.

The real missing forum function is the notification for the replies...
What's wrong with 2.16 version? Worst Galaxy version ever released. It keeps crashing when syncing. I installed it on 2 different computers (one with Win 1909 and one with 2004). I want to activate my Witcher 3 copy on GOG since I own the game on Steam but I have no chance. Is there another solution to activate it because there are only 5 days left to claim it.
I have disability issues that mean UI changes are unusable for me. I had 1.2 installed, denied updates, 2.0 installed anyways without permission. Now I have a headache trying to uninstall it. Looking at the FAQ I also noticed that my system isn't even officially supported by 2.0 because I use Windows 7 and it says it requires Windows 8 or newer yet it installed itself anyways. It also mentioned that I could get data loss by reverting to 1.2. This situation is completely unacceptable.

I did not want or need any of the features added in 2.0. I only wanted a stable and static platform so I can reliably play games to distract me from my chronic pain. This update has indirectly caused me physical harm. I do not know how to express how serious of an impact this has on my life.

SoheiYamabushi: It also mentioned that I could get data loss by reverting to 1.2.
The mention of data loss was in an unofficial FAQ document made by a non-GOG staff user on the forums to help people out. This user is biased against acknowledging the fact that 1.2 is the last stable version of the client for no apparent reason. He is primarily mentioning the (nearly-nonexistent) risk of data loss to cover himself against anyone claiming it to be his fault if something goes wrong on their end. You can safely revert and there are absolutely no reported cases of anyone losing data for doing so (the same is NOT true for users sticking to 2.0 who are losing access to website tags because Galaxy 2.0 doesn't support them, and who are literally being refused access to owned games in a number of instances without anything remotely resembling an explanation from GOG yet).

Definitely a better and safer option if you want to run from a launcher.
Can we talk about how the about how the Gwent store page in Galaxy looks like it was coded in 5min and had zero effort put into it?
for those who use reddit, there is a poll asking for how satisfied you are with the software.

SvitlaSveta4: Maybe somone knows, why Gog Galaxy don't support official integrations of EGS, Steam, Origin clients / games? As I understand those integrations are community made, and if something goes wrong (games can be stolen or something like this) Gog Company does not take any responsibility!!!?
Am I right?
Interesting thought, maybe you are right! I don't know how those Unoficial integrations work?, Can someone write about how they are working???

Sepix: for those who use reddit, there is a poll asking for how satisfied you are with the software.
that poll is invalid and lacks important options. it implies the person should agree they "hate" the app to say they don't use it. this is how you shut people up from voting. that's low, unprofessional and coward.
I get it, gog can't face people to vote "not interested" or "not on my OS" so they invoke that "hate" thing and hope for the best outcome. sane people who don't use galaxy won't vote "I hate it". what a scum

First off, GOG didn't make the poll, I did. Second, I tried to provide a range of options. /r/GOG is not officially run by GOG, I am a mod there, but it does have a quite few employees that frequent it so it was more of a "lets show GOG how we feel and provide some feedback" sort of deal.

This poll was geared at people that use Galaxy and either like it, are indifferent to it, or tried it and didn't like it (or uninstalled it). If you would like to see a poll asking how many people us Galaxy vs using standalone installers, etc. Maybe we can do that next after this one ends.
