Message: [QUOTE="NoctemDead, post: 58382, member: 148642"] Yes, GOG is free. It is a free marketplace. And a library and a couple of other things (file manager, storage for cloud saves, etc.). The stuff you buy in the marketplace is not free. The flea market is free to go to. You have to pay for the games at the retro game store in the flea market though. Same concept. Of course they do it for profit. Free to access doesn't mean non-profit. So in other words... when you remove it from your library, you want [I]your access to be revoked[/I]. Meaning they have the power to do the very thing you're complaining about right now. Accept then you say it shouldn't be revoked if it's downloaded and being used. So it's toothless. And it either relies on phoning home to ensure your verification is still active, or it's even more toothless. It's a fantasy. Which is fine, until you hold it against people living in the real world for failing to compare. Yes, it can be taken away. If you rely on the free, ongoing service as a digital access library and then violate terms of service, you can be banned and lose access. If, however, you purchase your collection and then download it and burn it onto discs, you still have your collection. They're not uploading a program to commandeer all your devices and destroy it. You still get to access your games - if you chose to take the responsibility on yourself of putting the offered files in a backup format. Honestly, I'm taking away from OP's post by even continuing to respond to this. I honestly think getting yourself banned from GOG forums has just made such an impact on you that you're struggling to come to terms with the fact that, yes, you can be removed from social spaces if you are found to be disruptive. Maybe you didn't take advantage of GOG's offer of including backup installers, relied on their ongoing services under terms you agreed to when you made the account, and then lost access. I don't know. It is what it is at this point. Congrats to Dino Crisis fans on a new re-release in an accessible, DRM-free format. Hope they enjoy and hope GOG continues to bring us many more games. I will not be responding to this particular line of comments about it because at this point it feels selfish to drag it out since all's been said. [/QUOTE]
