There's a forum thread dedicated to peeps who are trying to add friends but don't have any forum posts.
So if you get an account, I posted on this page:

As far as I can tell, there's no option to make the program NOT run when Windows starts. I'll have to go in and kill it manually, I guess.
Also, was doing 5GB DL of a game on the kid's computer. Computer went to sleep after about an hour, when the DL was 97% complete. Woke the computer up, waited 20 minutes, the DL did not resume. Restarted the DL. It started at 0%.

Oh ... there's almost always a way to kill automatic startup. It occasionally gets brutal.

Yeah but most nice programs give you a checkbox for it in the program settings. This one doesn't, yet.Malcolm wrote:Oh ... there's almost always a way to kill automatic startup. It occasionally gets brutal.As far as I can tell, there's no option to make the program NOT run when Windows starts.

But it's a port. Porting is pretty much all or nothing. It's not like you can get early access to a half-ported game and have anything to play, right? Either it's working or it's buggy, but it shouldn't ever be half built in the same way that a newly developing game would be.

I wouldn't say it's all or nothing. If they aren't reverse engineering some functionality and if they aren't adding new things, then it's probably less of a hassle. InXile fucked up the PC Wasteland port the first go round and had to fix it. Game worked 99% fine, but they screwed one part, granted not a critical part, but one that makes the game almost 50% easier to beat.

Doubt it? They'll need to read the data streams of the other services. They'll be blocked, and/or the data streams changed constantly.

They use your login credentials.Start the client, hit the "settings" dropdown, select "add games and friends," and then "connect platforms." Each one will prompt you for the usual login stuff, after which your libraries and activity will be imported and maintained automatically.
It's not me, it's someone else.

Of course, they need to know whos library to access. But even so... at some point gog.... have to access the data stream for Steam. I bet if there isn't already, there's soon to be a Steam ToS update saying no 3rd party apps may access your account.
