    What upsides?

    A. Many games that are DRM free on GOG are also DRM free on Steam.

    B. Most of the games that are only DRM free on GOG are old, out of date builds that don’t get bug fixes and updates.

    C. Even if both of those weren’t true, DRM free isn’t worth a terrible UX and no features. If GOG had feature parity for everything Steam does except big picture mode, big picture mode alone would outweigh the outrageously small chance that Steam somehow removes access to my games.

    But they’re not just not at feature parity. They’re like 2 out of 10 software. Better than Epic’s 0 of 10, but still really bad.
