Johnathanamz: Ok do I have to purchase Cyberpunk 2077 to leave a negative review on Steam, because people still have their rewards tied to GOG Galaxy?
Why is a 100% singleplayer only video game that has no multiplayer at all have rewards tied to GOG Galaxy.
The reality of this planet sucks. I have to spend more money on Steam just to leave negative reviews on top of doing the same thing on gog.com.
Well money is meant to be spent and not saved right?
Yeah I have to spend double the amount of money again.
That is fine by me. Steam's review system offers one of the best tools for video game developers to read.
Simple.
joppo: Don't bother.
If CDPR wanted to read their customer messages they can do it right here, it's their own store FF's sake! It's not like their customers didn't tell them what was wrong. Besides, I can believe in other publishers ignoring the existence of Gog reviews, but CDPR? Only if they don't really care what their customers written. In that case you're throwing your money away for no reason at all.
And quite frankly, It comes across as silly to give them extra money only to write that review. They shouldn't be rewarded for putting DRM in their game. The primary message you send them is by
Voting with your Wallet.
Lastly, it comes off as bizarre that someone buys the game only to write a review that could influence someone to... not buy the game? If you magically knew that your review was going to keep at least two purchases from happening maybe it would be worth it, but you just can't know that.
Voting with your wallet just does not work.
On Steam you have to purchase that video game to write a review for that video game.
A video game developer from VALVe actually responded to my negative Steam video games reviews of all of the negative reviews I wrote for each of the VALVe developed video games on Steam.
I have had a indie video game developer also respond to my Steam video game review.
While most of the reviews of video games on Steam the video game developers do not respond to them they for sure are looking at them and reading them.
You might have convinced me though to not spend another $50 dollars (USD) to purchase Cyberpunk 2077 on Steam just to write a negative review for Cyberpunk 2077 on Steam asking for CD Projekt RED to not tie the rewards to GOG Galaxy. As well as to develop more than one expansion packs to release for sale for Cyberpunk 2077. I will just do this for most multiplayer video games sold on Steam instead. Like I did for VALVe's Half-Life and Counter-Strike.
That is what I will just do instead.
