Considering how gog has been progressing over the past years, they'll have to do much more to prove that they are getting better than to make an announcement.
Until then, I'll remain critical.
I don't think clapping as soon as a company that has been doing a lot of crap over years, makes an announcement about one potential future improvement, is more logical than that.
What crap have they been doing?
Pushing a shitty launcher, selling partial games, missing versions of games, selling games with DRM, implementing DRMs through their launcher... Basically everything that GoG is supposed to specifically avoid.
I was unaware of all of this. I'm on Linux so I don't use their launcher. I've seen sketchy EULAs that are game specific but not heard about DRM
