DLC is hard to implement... Look at the Forced Showdown response here. At least Hands of Fate managed to bring their DLC here without spouting this nonsense.

Why do I bother supporting these people, when all they want to do is treat me like a second-class citizen. Look for the amazing collaboration by fronzelneekburm and others:

edit: I mean 'DLC is hard to implement' - A person who actually manages to create an entire game.

To the developer:
No.

So, I've just been wondering, have the devs done anything at all to make up for this? I mean, they pretty much gave the finger to all their supporters who prefer DRM-free games. People who paid just as much for this game, as their Steam customers did. Surely they must have predicted the backlash?

At the very least they could offer GOG owners of the game a free Steam copy -- not like that would satisfy all GOG users, but it would be something. Or how about some GOG store credit, to make up for the fact that they now own an inferior version of the game?

As far as I can tell they've made no efforts of that sort. And it's ridiculous they won't even consider making those new contents available here in the future. A delay could be excused, if they don't have the manpower and resources to focus on the DRM-free version(s) as much as their Steam release. But they're flat-out saying, "nope, won't happen... thanks for buying our game, but you'll have to make do with the crippled version".

By the way, the store page still doesn't mention these new contents/DLCs ( or lack thereof ). In fact, it still seems to be the same description from the pre-release version.

And for that matter, is this new "DRM-Free Edition" at the very least cheaper than the regular version on Steam?

That has exactly zero value. Less than zero actually. That's like saying "Here, take this shit sandwich."

To you. And I wouldn't care for it either. But I'm sure there's many GOG users who also happily use Steam, or at least when they don't want to miss out on a game ( or game content, in this case ). Like I said, it would be something.

Nope, they're both the same base price. If you thought that 25% off sale was something special for the DRM-free version, then you'll be disappointed to learn that the same 25% off sale is going on over on Steam. So, you're not even really getting it at a bargain price for what will amount to the inability to expand the game with more character DLC packs later down the road. Considering the fact that the maps are largely randomly-generated in what tiles appear where in the hex-based grid system, characters are a pretty large bulk of the content.

- backlash of this magnitude means nothing to these people.

- Devs need to give a damn before giving out free Steam keys. edit: they might be nice enough to; but it's not as if GOG we'll openly advertise these things.

- The store page doesn't need to mention the lack of extra stuff because it is essentially a different product now.

- It is in fact cheaper, but only for a limited time (lol).

Tried to answer you best I could.

I'll add this for an update. My original tweet (now that I'm reading it) was rather crass as I was initially shocked. Still, here it is:

You mean into..
*thunder*
..Good News™

Honestly? I think GOG goes down way before Steam. Yes, sure, DRM free installers and all that. But I'm honest: I don't keep all my games on DVDs and HDDs, with all the patches (if GOG gets them) and stuff. And I think almost no one does.

I have Windows 10 on all my machines. If a game equires Windows XP (which Steam client doesn't support), I'll have to find a way to make said game run on Windows 10. I don' keep old computers with old OSes.

Yeah, developers are eeeeevil... But on Steam you'll get patches, DLCs and stuff. On GOG you get the finger pretty often lately.

Even less? You can't imagine the amount of flying fucks that GOG doesn't give anymore! If I buy something like No Man's Sky on Steam (I did), I just hit the refund link and get my money back (I did that, too). Good luck with that one on GOG.

I'm not going to buy Armello on Steam to reward the devs. I just don't buy any games on GOG anymore, because the cases where the GOG version doesn't get support from the devs are getting more and more. And I'm definitely not going to wait and see if a GOG release gets patches and DLC before I buy a game. I just buy it on Steam and can be sure that it'll recieve all the updates.

They have no power/influence at all. They're still too niche™. And yes, I know that it's not helping if I buy my games on Steam now. But I'm not here to help GOG. I'm here (or not) to buy games. Working games. Games that get support. It's really not my problem if GOG can't put something in their contracts that devs HAVE to patch their games and release DLC and updates here, too. I'm just not willing to support a store where games are outdated, abandoned and incomplete.

Good point. Lots of the worst developer behavior never shows up on GOG because we actually have curation. Prior to Steam introducing refunds, Steam buyers were totally on their own even if the "game" purchased was an outright con.

Not that that helps much in this case, but Steam is hardly a sanctuary of dev support itself.
