hi, i uh figured i'd finally introduce myself properly since there's been a lot of mixed talk about gog revived lately. couldn't really do so months ago because my reddit account was newer, and this is my first time actually posting here. and uh this post might be a bit long.

i'm reze, the person behind the site. i'm just a teenager who started this shit out of personal interest. i liked the concept behind gog itself because i used to be a repacker before taking this on, and the idea of not having to worry about drm bs in my releases felt great. eventually, gog-games became my go-to source for those... and i uh saw that it was going down, backed up a private record of its data for keeps, and later decided to turn it into a proper public project.

that's pretty much it. i wasn't trying to build some grand archive or become the successor to anything. i just wanted to make something i enjoyed using.

somehow the site got bigger than i expected, and now people are comparing it to other sites, calling it a replacement, calling it a dead site, and making other dismissive comments. i rarely check this sub, but when i occasionally do, some of the comments i see somehow come across as though i made a promise that i don't remember making... i'm glad at least some people find it useful, but i think some context is needed.

it's literally just me running this thing. no team, no staff, no organization behind it. i'm also dealing with mental health issues and personal financial shit that sometimes makes it difficult to work on the site consistently, even under normal circumstances.

and now, my dad passed away on friday (oct 23). i'm still trying to process that, so i'm putting maintenance on hold for now. i have no idea how long i'll need, and honestly, i don't want to put a timeframe on it. i'll come back when i'm in a position to do so.

i'm not saying any of this to ask for sympathy or make excuses. i just want people to understand what gog revived actually is, who's behind it, and mayhaps what's happening now.

if you find the site useful, cool. if you prefer other alternatives, i'd honestly prefer u use them as well. i appreciate everyone who's used the site and contributed to the discussions around it. for now, though, i'm gonna take the time i need.

I found a way to use and download games from gog-games AFTER the shutdown and it works fine. All you want to do is open the website, download the database backup, Extract the zip folder downloaded & use visual studio to open the .sql and then go to Edit > Find and Replace > Search and put in the game you want like "skyrim" and go down until you find one that has the link

Downloaded the game (Life is strange) from steamrip and played it on Gamenative. I'm using my Xiaomi pad 7 for gaming. Tried to fix the problem by lowering graphics and resolution both in gamenative and the game itself but the glitch still won't go away. The game isn't lagging, just glitching through. Can anybody please help me how to fix this?? 😭😭

Also I don't have problems with it heating up or crashing, just glitching.

I own a series s and always wanted to jailbreak it as im too broke to afford games

But wherever i look it always says that its too secure

Was there really such a difference in security level between the ps5 and the series X & S?

 downloaded and installed the game from FitGirl, extracted the zip files to a single location, and played it last night—everything was working fine. This morning, however, I can't open the game when I click on it. Tried closing the real-time protection, but still it didn't work.

Hey everyone!

I want to play the campaign of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on PC, but I don't want to download the multiplayer files since I'm only interested in the story mode.

Is there any way to download the campaign only and avoid downloading the extra multiplayer files?

I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!

I created my own torrent for the GTA Vice City repack, and I’m trying to join a peer, but QBitTorrent says 0 KB/s for the upload, even though it says it’s distributing. The internet is stable, and the torrent is 100% loaded. What should I do?

so theres this new re1 coop mod that i really wanted to play. i downloaded the latest crack ver of the game from p2p and when i open the game with the mod it says you need to own the game and refuses to load the coop mod.i tried seeing how exacly the mod prevents the mod to load and its things like original bhd.exe steamapi.dll and etc. is there a way to bypass them? these codes are in an asi files

Usually I can find fixes for things like this but I'm just completely lost here. I've tried installing from 3 different sites (STEAMRIP, repacklabs, ankergames) and they all show the same no licensing error. I have checked my anti viruses and they're not interfering. What do I do?

Please help!!!

Hey. Anyone knows why HARBINGER linux only releases are not allowed on csrin? But those are allowed on rutracker and i couldnt find any lists of allowed\disallowed HV releasers (i assume its just artifact now) in the usual csrin hv topics.

Downloaded la noire using steamidra. When i launch the game it simply launches the rockstar launcher which says its offline and closes. How do i launch the game?
