Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I've got over 5,000 games listed in Galaxy. But I've actually got more than that, since the Playstation and Xbox integrations only show games that I've actually played vs ones that I own. The Xbox integration also doesn't show any of the Xbox 360 games I own digitally either. So the actual number is probably closer to 6,000.I'll have a look into it tomorrow.

At some point I'll probably go through my Steam library, where the bulk of the games I don't care about are, and either remove them from my Steam account or hide them in GOG.

Well, I'm not quite that bad, but I'm in the 4 figures club for sure. The annoying thing is I kind of did the sorting before because I set up categories on Steam already (that was a long weekend...). I'm also just a hog for keeping games installed (over 300 just ready to go., because you never know....).
They need to add some game randomiser that picks something you haven't played yet (as a suggestion) for people like me

I got an invitation on monday and my mail-client killed the mail... and without it, I have no chance to get the Beta-Download. Contacted support yesterday, but no word from them until now. *sob*

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Yeah, no invite is pretty annoying. I get it, I signed up a little later... but c'mon - I've been on GOG since the beginning of 2009. I've earned this.

Got mine at long last, and installed. After linking my Origin, Uplay, Steam and Epic store accounts, WOW! Where has this been all my life? No idea how well it works yet with updates and everything else, but first impressions are fantastic. Removing everything else from my startup apps finally.

It has great design, but I don't really see any use of it for nor for me as I'm using Steam mostly. But I hope I'll use it more in future

I know I'm new here "Hi" but I had gotten the GoG 2.0 beta a few days ago and I just read through this thread and saw people had bnet integration on their accounts where as mine does not, how do I get Bnet on there?
Also GoG 2.0 is my fave launcher so far, I was starting to lose patience wit the amount of launchers my games were spreading across.

Hey, as far as I know there's no way to sync bnet to GoG 2.0 yet. You'll have to add your games manually.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
In the earlier alphas the Battle.net community integration was included with the installer (as kind of a "test" of community integration plugins). If you want to integrate it now you'll need to add the community integration manually.

Just click "releases" and select either the windows or Mac build (depending on what you're using). Extract the zip file to your %localappdata%\GOG.com\Galaxy\plugins\installed\ folder.

I suppose it's possible, but it would mean that these platforms would have to completely close their public APIs in order to "break" the integration. As long as Steam still wants users to be able to see what games they own when browsing the site, or as long as Playstation wants users to be able to share their trophy lists publicly, the integration can work.
There are three types of integrations -
- Official (currently just GOG and Xbox): This means the companies responsible for these platforms are working with GOG directly to create and maintain the integration to their services
- Supported (the big stuff like Steam and PSN, among others): This means that GOG is developing and testing the integration themselves. Kind of like "certified to work with GOG". These might break, but it's unlikely. If API changes happen, expect swift updates.
- Community (Stuff like the Battle.Net integration I linked above): This means a member of the community built and will (hopefully) maintain the integration. These are the most likely to be break and potentially not get fixed expediently, if ever.

Got my invite.
Pretty neat so far, love the look of it and it's nice having everything in one place.
The only integration I quickly disabled was Playstation. Not much use since I obviously can't launch any game, and it just filled my library with a bunch of bloat from all the Ps+ games and every Physical game I've ever launched from my console

Yeah I know but next to the "all games" tab (on the left) it was still showing a very large number with a considerable portion of them being Ps4 games I don't really own (Ps+) or game I don't own anymore (physical games I've sold or that I played by borrowing from friends).
It's a minor thing but it bothered me lol. And ultimately I see this as a PC tool so I prefer it only showing my PC games
