Keep getting 403 Forbidden when trying to download some updated installers, Hellpoint and No Mans Sky, but it seems to happen with any of my games when I tried some random ones out. Anyone else got this?

Confirmed.
The issue started since at least 6~7 hours ago. Nothing fixed yet.

"Error 403" when downloading with a browser


This error occurs due to an IP mismatch in your browser (this happens in unusually-configured networks, if the IP assigned when starting a download is different from the IP assigned when connecting to the website itself).
In such situations, we strongly suggest using GOG GALAXY in order to install the game, or to just download the standalone installer files. The added benefit will be protection against download corruption, offered by GOG GALAXY.


Anyway it is user related i guess seems the problem is on our side :D which i already knew cause whatever problem we have it is always related to us :D
