My favourites are Wonder Boy and especially Wonder Boy in Monster Land (used to finish it with 1 single coin ) :wub:

Also I remember that the owner of the Arcade Machine was turning off the Wonder Boy in Monster Land Arcade Machine while I was playing with the reason that the electricity was cut off.
He wanted to let other people to play on it in order to get more coins,I was playing for like 1h+ continuously with 1 coin so it was not good for his business, but he was giving me back the 1 coin after the "power failure" :P

Well GOG kinda makes me fill a bit guilty since I haven't purchased anything from them but I have around 133 Games in my Library out of the 7000+ Games on steam.... :o

Well sometimes I want to buy things from GOG but then...... oups!!! No Steam key :'(
So at the end I buy games from Humble which they offer both DRM Free + Steam key or directly from steam.

GOG Connect adds my steam games to GOG Library for FREE but when I want to purchase games from GOG they dont give me a steam key... So Why they dont offer a steam key as an optional option ?

Reasonably all Steam Gamers they will continue buying games for Steam and they will wait for GOG to connect their games for FREE! So why GOG is doing this :o?

Includes Discord rewards

if you want a bit of advise read below otherwise skip it because some words of what I am saying maybe will sound a bit harsh... :o

So as I see from the above pledges you are trying to become a greedy Patreon........... WAIT!?!?!?!? WHAT??!?!?!?!

So let me analyse a bit what I am trying to say:

1. First you have to assume that even $1 means a lot to some people and with VAT it may become a bit more.
for example people that pledge $5 they pay actually pay $5.95 at the end.
Also you have to assume that some people maybe are supporting you as a patreon because they are expecting some kind of a reward and some maybe dont expect anything.
Well actually you have to treat your Patreons more or less equally with some kind of a reward when you can.

2.Your pledge categories reminds me of some greedy games the more you pay the more you awarded , so whats next ? pay 15 and you get a priority of a day one release game steam key?
Is like you are saying screw you $1 and $5 give me more money and get your steam keys if you want...
Then the patreon will say " screw you gamingonlinux and your steam keys, I am getting my humble monthly with just $12 and I am more than happy than spending 5.95 for your website" At the end some people may except an award and some maybe not , some people may say I like this website and I just support it and some other may say "why to support it since I have other ways to get my gaming news and I dont get any rewards , so whats the point?"

4.Finding a reward to please your patreons is a bit hard, Some people maybe dont consider steam keys as a reward so they actually dont care about it so you maybe need a better way to satisfy your patreons. I cant tell you what rewards you can give them but some gaming sites created some tutorials exclusive for ALL of their patreons , how to create a game in Unreal or How to do a character in blender and so on.....The possibilities are endless. Of course after a week or so you may release this article/tutorials to the public. I am just expressing some ideas.

5. Becoming a patreon to some is bit expensive/annoying and one time donation it maybe more attractive to some.The more options the better for gamingonlinux.

6.Some people find it hard to find where the hell you are hiding the Patreon Website or donation article site. You need a large button in the front page to say "DONATE" or "Support Gaming on Linux".
As far as I remember I send a friend to donate or become a patreon and he come back with the words "screw it I cant find anything about donations or patreons on that site"

well I could write some more points but I got an emergency call and I have to go to IT support so take care and I hope you understand my points.
As I said at start some words maybe sound a bit harsh but I just wanted to give my points out.
I dont intend to do any harm or whatever just pointing out some points that may help to improve gamingonlinux overall.

Are the story episodes an Extra DLC or Free?

Quoting: WorMzyI'll add my voice to the chorus of complaints about build quality -- I've had a number of Razer devices over the years, and they all developed faults (usually with the scroll wheels) over the course of a year or so. I'd recommend avoiding them and going with roccat instead (at least, for devices supported by the no-longer developed Linux configuration tool).

Thats the reason I dont purchase Razer anymore as well :)

Now I am using Corsair Products and I can say I am pretty happy with it...
