Instead, they use proprietary services like Steamworks for Steam Achievements and GOG Galaxy for Galaxy Achievements out-the-gate, instead of within the game/engine for offline profiles first. If it was done in that way - then when a player isn't on Steamworks or Galaxy, at least I could still Achieve something, no matter if I bought the game on GOG, Steam or any other proprietary system. I remember when Achievements weren't a common thing on PC - yet Divinity 2 has it right built into the game itself. Developers don't build Achievements/Trophies directly into an offline manner in the actual game engine, offline profiles, and/or offline game portion's itself. The problem is from a design standpoint & part. This game should be having Galaxy Achievements just like it also has Steam Achievements.Īnd at the very least, it should also have Galaxy-only multiplayer, rather than to have its multiplayer functionality be entirely removed, and then GOG customers get sold a gimpy version of the game, spin-doctored as if it being gimped for GOG is a 'good thing,' by misleadingly attempting to frame the gimping in a positive light by calling it 'Single-Player Edition,' rather than 'Gimped Edition' or 'Castrated Edition' or 'Feature Removed Edition' or something along those lines which would accurately reflect the fact that it is an incomplete, inferior, parity-lacking version.

I and others already have lodged such complaints earlier in this thread. Ancient-Red-Dragon: Sure they will, and rightly so.
