Then we just have to agree to disagree on that topic.

I'm against GOG shafting a portion of their user base.

DRM-free is GOG's identity. That's non-negotiable. Everything else is, including regional restrictions, which we already have.

Provided they don't go so far as to block gifting codes to all regions, sure.

VPN people.

Which they do on several games due to regional pricing differences.

I would say that's because you are not concerned by regional restrictions (it's the same as many people from the USA said they don't care about regional pricing).

We shouldn't embrace such shady business models just because they slowly became a market reality.

Yes, now we're down to only DRM-free (and even that's arguable). But my point was that Barry would be okay with regionally restricted games, while not willing to compromise on DRM-free. While others may take the opposite stance. Why should GOG listen to one faction over the other?

To be fair it's not GOG doing the shafting, it's generally local laws and licensing restrictions, things out of the hands of any store. Why not provide some games for those they can legally sell to?

I can't buy Hotline Miami 2, but that doesn't mean i think everyone else should miss out. No, it seems worse to me to shaft everyone instead.

So, would you be for pulling the games off GOG that are not available in your country like the Wolfenstein and Quake games? Do you happen to own (or are interested in buying) Hotline Miami 2, which is not available for sale in Australia?

I'd really love to get a game here that is restricted in the US, just for seeing the reactions here :D

I would be okay with it. I don't get the "If I can't have it, NO ONE CAN!" attitude.

Oh I believe you, since you give off the impression that you just want more games here on gog as long as they are DRM-free. But I doubt a lot of people saying they don't care about it would react they same when they really would be affected :D

And this is why I have to buy some games on Steam even though I really don't want to. :\

What sane distributor would block off the biggest buying percentage of digital pc gamers?

Yes, GoG selling a DRM game would shaft a majority of their user base which is why they won't do that. But that's not to say they may try to skirt the issue down the road (like say offering a Steam key as well as a DRM-Free key).
