    Can’t argue with that, it would be nice for GOG to have:

    • Cloud saves
    • A controller pass through with configuration as you described

    Those are really steam’s best features, and if GOG had those I’d likely stop buying steam games

      GOG does have cloud saves and actually provides a more convenient way to manage them, unlike Steam, which kept restoring my ancient RimWorld saves for hours until I could finally convince it to get rid of them.

      However, the storage space is smaller than Steam. Also, there’s no equivalent of Steam’s Workshop on GOG.

      DRM-free is the biggest positive of GOG. Steam Family Sharing recently has been just so pro-consumer as well though. I gave my mate my old steam deck after getting the OLED deck, and he’s now got a library of 200+ games right out the gate.
