if GoG had closed down WITH NOTICE and I didn't get my games off their servers it would be my bad, but had this been a real shutdown without notice (so I couldn't grab my shit) I'd be sitting on a plane to Poland right now with a pitchfork in one hand and an unlit torch in the other. the ting is that lots of people never download the games they buy from gog. who really buys 5/10/15 year old games for the entertainment value? there have been a few game's i've bought from GoG where they were "new" to me in that I missed them when they came out for various reasons (mostly my PC dark ages when I didn't own a computer between 1998-2003), but by in large the games I buy from GoG are games that I had and loved but lost. as such, I simply buy them for nostalgia. truthfully: I'm probably never going to fully re-play fallout 1&2 + tatics, acranum, and freespace 2, but I still bought them. I should be backing them up, but if I was diligent I wouldn't have lost the game disks in the first place. so, yeah, I'm stupid in that I leave 1/2 of my games on GoG's server for when I get around to not being lazy and back them up. if this stunt is any indication, most other GoG users are just like me so that's why everyone has a major inflamation of the nerd rage gland right now. I'd mourn GoG if it did close down, but only if I had prior notice so I could grab my games off their servers before the end.
