![]() Cross-store and cross-platform for the win. PC is PC, it should never have become as fragmented as it is. Now Epic is providing most of what I was hoping for, and honestly I'd rather take that over Steam's continuing near-monopoly, or all the other store-locked services out there. I guess it was too far out of GOG's scope or budget to do so. We have every game from the GOG.com catalog available to download for free Free GOG PC game downloads by direct link. Expanded Items:Weapons, Expanded Items:Armor, Expanded Items:Spirits, Expanded Items:Augments, Expanded Items:Artifacts definitely adds more build diversity by. Expanded Classes is interesting but moves all of the general abilities into subclasses which can kill some builds. ![]() That's why I said it's “like wishing for the impossible.” It's a lot of work for the devs, and of course they're going to go for the easiest option, even if that locks out certain populations of their customers.Īnd so I'd been waiting for GOG/anyone to step up and provide tools that are *just as easy to use* as Steam's - but without the bullshit store locking. All of Smokers mods are great, but theyre definitely personal taste. ![]() (Of course, the devs are free to put in the legwork and provide alternatives that aren't store-locked, but most don't) At the cost of disallowing non-Steam users from connecting. They provided a neat and very easy to use package that provides MP matchmaking. Which is why Steam reigned supreme for so long on PC. ![]() But I was also talking about games that need more than just direct IP (like ones that need persisting servers), yet aren't platform-locked. Like how most companies can't be bothered (or can't afford) hosting their own servers, or allowing users to set them up themselves, and all the other ways that MP could be done without dependency on a single platform. What I was trying to get at is beyond just the scope of this game, and the issue of DRM-free MP in general. I was trying to condense a big idea into a couple of sentences. Or titles like Wildermyth and Disco Elysium that I was interested to merchants for runes that are spent to upgrade your characters. XD I realize now I didn't make it very clear in my post. Epic Online Services is only required for cross-platform play, while "non-crossplay multiplayer is available using direct IP connection." Thanks for pointing that out! :DĪnd oh yeah, I know DRM-free MP is possible. Skirtish: Not sure if you're aware, DRM-free mutiplayer isn't impossible and indeed this game offers it.
