It's not rare for games on gog to be abandoned but maintained on steam, was hit often enough myself.

And while it makes business sense, it is a bad thing. It should not be released there if, yes, you're being treated second class.

Aside from missing content or features one of the most common issues would be for multi-player not being included, working or incompatible. Sometimes without being transparent about it.

How is that not second class?

If GoG abandoned the game, but Steam didn't, then GoG is treating you as second-class by making you pay full price for a lesser experience

It's not GoG that abandoned the game, it's the devs of the games that abandoned the GoG version of their own games.

Exactly, gog is not maintaining the code, that's the dev.
