#DRMfree video #giveaway is rare so yay! Also afaik it's the second time #GOG gives it away, but last time, the Movies section of the catalogue still existed, so many users may have missed it (wonder if they got many messages from gamers asking for it too).

Galaxy and ”other” games

At some point in the past I’ve linked my Steam library to GoG Galaxy client, and now I can’t get the Steam games out of it.

All the Steam games show up as “other” and so relinking and unlinking the Steam don’t help. I’ve also uninstalled the Galaxy with Revo uninstalled, removing all associated files, but the other games just repopulate my library.

The GoG rep told me I have to manually remove those games one by one. There are literally hundreds and each takes multiple clicks to remove. Also, I haven’t got a response whether it’s safe to remove duplicates (games I have both from GoG and Steam) this way or is there a risk that I remove a GoG game from my library.

Any advice?

GOG Patrons update

The short version, received through newsletter:
https://files.mastodon.social/media/_attachments/files/116/421/180/564/325/119/original/2a0f2bd89941c38c.png

Previously, it seemed as relevant as Discord Nitro, so imo it's good they give something more tangible and preservable/not as easy to nuke with a few clicks. Plus not as dependent of Discord. =D

Also, in the full update, they mention "growing and nurturing the community", and though they say "with a particular emphasis on GOG Patrons", considering how stale the forum can be, I wonder if they'd be considering some form of fediverse integration too.

No achievements in Wolfenstein the New Order through Heroic

Hi everyone!

Due to my Playstation 4 version of Wolfenstein the New Order being now only in german after an update, I sold the game and bought it again to replay it on my Steam Deck through Heroic.

I'm enjoying the game as everything works perfectly except that I'm getting no achievements even if my playtime is synchronized to GOG.

Apparently, even on Windows people are having this problem: https://www.gog.com/forum/wolfenstein_series/new_order_achievements_broken/?search=achievements

So in hope of an Idea, I'm turning to Lemmy even if I don't have much hope. Apparently downgrading the version of the game could help, but I can't get a confirmation if it would mean starting from scratch again or not.

I'm running the 1.0.0.2 hotfix version of the game.

Edit: downgrading to 1.0.0.2 through Heroic worked
