GOG, Origin, Uplay...

Currently converting to almost entirely use GOG.

As I see it today, it offers a much better service and has some of the games that just drown me in nostalgia

Maybe in some time later we can see if cg partner with some people to create another giveaway sites like goggifts, uplaygifts, origingifts.

I have a lot of games on Uplay, and it's not a bad client so I don't have issues with it. I do wish that it was all just on Steam but I'm not pissed about it like a lot of people are. If Uplay or Origin were bad clients I'd understand but they're overall pretty good, though they are a slight inconvenience.

What I do is just put all of my games on Steam manually so it's as if I'm exclusively using Steam anyway. If you look at my Steam activity it seems like I haven't been doing much when in reality I've just been playing a bunch of games on Uplay.

Steam is convenient, but their support is pretty bad and I don't care for all of their policies. I like GOG, and it would be an even better alternative if they had achievements, a marketplace, and of course the user base that Steam does.

i have u play, origin and battlenet. rarely play them tho. and only for the exclusive games they have. fortunately, ubisoft games that i want to play are also available on steam. origin only for DAI, DA2, DS3, ME, and PvZGW. i was tempted to buy battlefield hardline, cause origin has sale for battlefield series atm. but changed my mind.

Besides GOG the publishers platforms lost their fight against steam pretty much from the beginning. And that's not only due to Steam's popularity but also because they are just plain bad. I had to use Origin on a almost daily basis since I was playing FIFA pretty much. Some might say classic EA.. others may say it lacks in functionality, design (ok, the newer update makes it look better) and has certain issues (friendlist not available, chat messages disappearing etc.). For me clients like Origin and Uplay are just annoying and look like quite desperate tries from other publishers they won't give up on.

I use Steam the most, but I really don't care whether a game is on Uplay, Origin, Gog or Steam. I play games to enjoy them and if there is a good game on another platform, I'll just buy it.

I mainly use Steam for games because of the library of enjoyable games. I only use Origin when I want to play Battlefield 3 & 4 or when there's a good "On the house" game. If I want old school games I go for GOG because they have it and it's DRM-Free. I used to use Uplay for watch_dogs but after The Division I stopped using it and uninstalled it altogether.

I have all my games on steam and out of convenience i can't use other platform.Exclusives and games that you can't get on steam i find some other ways to play them. However if someone asks me to suggest a platform ill send them to GOG.Steam needs to follow in their steps.

I don't mind any other platform if I need to play their exclusive game (Origin and Windows Store), but I prefer to buy and played on Steam as I can show off (a bit), and as of now, only Steam have regional price that isn't 1:1 USD (most game in Steam it's about 0.5:1 USD, though, some Japan are expensive as 1.2:1 USD but I can just buy from 3rd party website for that)

Edit: Also, thanks to cards and stuff I can even a get free game from selling them.

Well, GOG Connect is dead now. they had 2 batches of games and now they just gave up it seems.
GOG Connect could've gotten people to use GOG finally, but seeing as I have 831 games and 5 movies on my account, I have no reason to start spreading my funds around different clients (I only really play a few games on Origin and some games through Steam on UPlay).
Also, I'm one of the sheep that likes achievements and the trackers that calculate how many achievements I have and my avg. game completion rate.

I pretty much stopped buying games on Steam though I still buy steam games from Humble Bundle but my main focus to buy from GOG even with its shortcoming thanks to the devs who see GOG users as 2nd class players.

GOG is good, since if some whatever reason steam gets nuked, you wont be able to play your games anymore, but with gog, you can play your games anytime.

I use both Origin and Uplay (in addition to Steam, obviously), but not regularly. I wish they would ditch these services, to be honest. It's not that much of a hassle to use, but I like to keep track of game stats and achievements and so on, but on Origin and Uplay this is completely useless for me.

I use GOG for old games, newer stuff I get on Steam for those delicious achievements and because patches come out weeks later on GOG. I only use Origin and Uplay when required by a game.

I play games on gog, origin, u-play, HB drm-frees i didn't got the steam key for, WGS's drm-frees, Telltale and probably something else too XD
I do play steam most of the time, since that's where I have most of my games, however I don't really care, as long as I can download and play whenever I wish.

Gog is a very good services also because it optimizes older games to work fine on modern systems and it do it really good, much better than steam where mostly games are completely not optimized and requires searching special patches on google etc. and I think everything should be available to download in one place.
Another great gog feature is possiblity to choose on what version of game you want to play (using gog galaxy), very important in many games as not always patch which is the newest at the moment is the one working the best.
They are drm-free as everyone know and you are right owner to the game.
Other thing, some games have much better promotions on gog than on steam.
And if anyone want to buy any game from The Witcher collection only buying it on gog makes all their money go directly to the developers CD Project as it is an owner of this service.

ps - There is starting to work a new service gog connect which gonna add some of your steam games to gog library.

All that said I think gog should add more features steam platform have (instead they added some unique) and thats for what gog galaxy (early beta) was created probably.
And steam should treat with much bigger respect older titles also why not adding achievements to them?

I use Uplay, Origin, and Steam

I have some games on all platforms, but mostly free games/giveaways/bundle stuff. Except for GoG, where I actually purchased some games that weren't available on Steam.

Nope.

I like to have one primary platform to play games on. Xbox Users have their console, I got my Steam. The only exception I will make is for Battlefield 1.

Hey

In fact i try to avoid to stack DRM so if game require an uplay account i try to buy it as a Uplay key and same for others platform
So yeah i often play on GOG/Uplay/Origin...

BR

I have a lot of games on GOG and some on Origin, all of which I do play over those plattforms. I refuse to buy anything that requires uPlay and I'm not interested in the games requireing battle.net.
So, to answer your question, yes I do use, play and buy on platforms other than Steam on a regular basis.

I've got Origin for Mass Effect 3 co-op and GOG for some classics that aren't available anywhere else patched for modern systems.
