Their tagline is literally ‘you buy it, you own it’. But does it really grants ownership?

    Okay then, I guess GoG is lying the same way Steam is after all. I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, but concede that I was wrong.

    “Licensed not sold” is still bunk, though. They do not have the right to confiscate games you’ve previously purchased, no matter what their fucking User Agreement claims.

      Their user agreement doesn’t claim they can remove files from your computer. If your account gets suspended you no longer have access to the game you paid for unless you have previously downloaded and stored it.

      I bought Witcher 3 on GOG, but I don’t currently have it saved anywhere. If GOG suspends my account, I can no longer access the content I paid for
