Now i am someone whos a Huge Fan of DRM Free Gaming (well im in GOG Community go figure :P) and basically what i was always wondering as as to why DRM seems to be so popular still among Gamers considering StarForce and such? >.>

DRM Free Gaming is probably mostly a Thing that probably comes into Old Gamers Minds more than newer ones considering that StarForce and SafeDisc are more or less RetroDRMs that i doubt many Newer Gamers cant phatom really? >.>

But what surprises me the most is that the Voice arent “louder” for even just removing Basic Denuvo after 6 Months off Steam or so >.>
Like for me itd be honestly fine to make a Trade off them just having Denuvo on a New Release for 6 - 12 Months and then removing it honestly as itd love to buy Games such as the Persona Games instead of having to emulate them honestly :P
Where i was wondering as to Why is GOG not the most Popular Gaming Platform?

    I prefer GOG too but Steam is simple, no installation needed for the games, has more games at the same price.

      Both Steam and GOG requires installing a game to play it.

        Maybe they’re referring to playing remotely from their home computer? That often doesn’t require a local install.

          There is that. I can even stream a Steam game on windows to a Linux computer. It’s quite versatile.

      eh i mean i can defently see that as i also use Steam of course but i do prefer GOG over Steam anyday really! :P
      Just the Fact that i can backup my Games easily without having to first use Goldberg on my Steam Games makes it much more Convenient imo to use over Steam :D
      But i can obviously see your Arguments with the Amount of Games just basically being non existent especially with the whole JRPG Gaming Category being basically Steam Only :P
      Even tho i pray that changes due to the Final Fantasys now being on GOG XD
