Reputation may rise and fall, but your point is valid—it will have a more lasting effect on them. We often overlook those who shape CDPR into what they are, some of whom may have departed because of the challenges they faced. Crunch periods could have hurt their team or leadership, as well as other connected issues.

It's really tough to create a client for Linux while also promoting DRM-free games like Hitman.

this is why it should be on it's own page and library of games on GOG (have not checked if it is). You can still advertise for DRM free, so long they are not pushing DRM content with or next to DRM free content. Showing sales would be fine, but under DRM content or as an own sales/news window for it.

Reviewed the information – currently there’s no distinct section for DRM in the store. Beyond the general note on Hitman’s site, shoppers can’t easily find details about DRM presence.

I've updated this to the PC Gaming forum for now. Tech News articles should come from trusted outlets, usually reputable news websites. Forum and Reddit posts aren't seen as reliable sources. Adding quotes from credible references could help move it back to Tech News.

One of the forum messages comes from a GOG employee. It seems untrustworthy.

It's not the same as a news story. A company sharing a product update is simply marketing, not breaking news. The real source would be a reputable tech or gaming news outlet providing an impartial report. Other comments are just more conversation around the topic.

That is the question - Can't be that hard I'd imagine? But then again: I have no idea... However with how fast Valve is progressing in Linux Gaming rn, there has to be a way.

Yes, this game (and the others you referenced) requires activation to function. Being unable to play online without a server doesn’t equate to DRM, provided there’s an offline option available.

It varies by game, but many additional features linked to SP content require a server connection. You might be able to play the SP version, but some elements are turned off, making the main game more central. For example, lootboxes could appear only when connected to a server, or specific gameplay aspects like PvP modes might be needed for certain experiences such as entering a darksouls world.
