Is GOG Galaxy better than Steam?

While GOG.com has its advantages, its game library isn’t that big, especially when compared with Steam. Steam hosts over 50,000 games on its platform. GOG.com is just 10% of it. While there is some game overlap between the two platforms, GOG.com does not restrict its games with DRM.

Why is DRM important?

It’s a way to protect copyrights for digital media through the use of technology that limits copying and selling copyrighted works. Most gaming companies use DRM to authenticate game purchases by buyers but it isn’t limited to gaming only. Hope it helps!
