Ability to resell games is one of the biggest things missing in the digital market. If that was an option, I'd imagine a lot fewer people would have a problem with it. Obviously, the whole issue of ownership is another one. Make digital purchases actual owned copies rather than a licence you buy for the right to play a game. Those two are the big ones I see.

And that will never happen without legislation. There's a reason why very few new releases, and a lot of older releases, are not on GOG.

Congressman Richie Torres (D-NY) did introduce legislation in October 2026 that, if passed, would require the FTC to recognize ownership of digital purchases, but it's not going to get through the current Congress, and would no doubt die on Trump's desk. 

CDProjekt also divested GOG because, in a good year, GOG barely breaks even.

So GOG is doing it right yet they're not profitable?
