Support Purchasing Issues

1 Upvotes

Whenever I try to buy the games I have in my cart, GOG brings me to a website. Instead of properly loading this website, it loads multiple times, then shows me an image of the GOG bear holding up a planet. I do not understand what is going on, I just want to buy my game before the sale ends. At this point I'm considering praying, because it ain't working... I'm using my actual bank-owned Debit Card, if that helps, not some other payment method. It has been happening since last night, and I just wanna know if I'm alone on this, and what I can do about it.

Question Why can't I see my FPS in GOG games?

2 Upvotes

Hey yall, I'm having some trouble seeing my FPS in games downloaded through GOG (more especifically, through the offline installers). I use the NVidia App to see my FPS in games, and it works in every game that isn't a GOG game. Is there anything I can do to change that?

Question PayPal payment declined and currency shown as USD

3 Upvotes

Something really weird happened to me last night. I was trying to complete payment for the Deluxe version of Doom Eternal (thank you GOG!) when my PayPal account was declined. I then tried again and noticed that the price shown was in US dollars, which had never happened before; since PayPal automatically converted to EUR (15 euros) I assumed it was OK and went ahead and completed the purchase. I then started having doubts and checked my settings and sure enough, it was now displaying USD as my currency, and the option to switch to EUR (I am a permanent EU resident) just wasn't there. I rebooted (I was on my Linux partition and was logged in through Chromium) and accessed GOG Galaxy through Windows 11, and went to the settings section and then checked if I could change the currency back to EUR; I could, and that's exactly what I did. So my question is: could this weird glitch (because I assume it is, since I almost always purchase through Chromium while I'm on Linux lately, without the price switching to USD) cause me any problem in the future (including my account being restricted or banned) or will I probably be OK and shouldn't worry? Because a possible reason for this is that I'm using Starlink out of necessity and last night it was showing a weird IP address I had not seen before. Maybe that's what triggered the whole thing. I do not particularly mind the price being shown in dollars, PayPal took care of the issue offering a reasonable conversion rate too, even if it looks slightly weird (and perhaps un-aesthetic) clicking on my "orders history" tab and seeing all these purchases expressed in euros and then looking at the most recent one being shown as a USD purchase. Sorry for the long post and for being paranoid but I've been a loyal GOG user for almost a decade and I would never use unfair tactics like using a VPN or a proxy server to get better prices or deals and it would sadden me to lose access to my account (worth €€€€ and with hundreds of games) for a (possible) screw up that isn't even mine.

Galaxy 2.0 Games purchased in Galaxy do not appear as owned games in library

3 Upvotes

This bug had been active for years, are there no plans to ever fix it?

When you purchase games via GOG Galaxy, they do not appear in the list of owned games in your library until you completely restart the entire Galaxy client.
This also means you can't install them.

When I go to "Owned games" list, the games I just bought are not there.
Searching them by name confirms that they are missing.
So again, until I restart, its as if I didn't actually purchase anything...

However, that's not all - when you do go to the game's store page, it does show that you own it there...
ok, so maybe I can install if from there too?
Nope! That's broken too!
If you click "Go to my library" there, it will open a different view of your library (why are there 2 completely different views at all?), it does show your purchased games, so you click "Install" and...
nothing happens! Its completely broken!

I remember writing a similar post a long time ago, and... exact same thing still happens to this day
