bzrro20: First time accessing with the new update for GOG Galaxy, and there is a little slowdown. But the worst part is the games advertised are missing. I can scroll left and right, but I only see the games flash for an instant before they disappear. This would be the same with the news reel, scrolling left and right. They are not displaying properly.
I wouldn't mind being able to change the icons to list format as it used to be. There should be a setting, but there currently is not.
I'll have to go to the main website?
I'm using Windows 10
I'm using Windows 7 and it's a problem for me, too.
I like the new design of the shop and the ongoing evolution of GoG-Galaxy
BUT what drives me crazy:
The massive overuse of mouseover popups/videostarts/moreinfo blink-y-blink.
It distracts me, like every step someone throws sth at you.
I don't know where to hide my mouse to look and scroll undisturbed in/through the start page without popup/animation in my face.
Please add an option to turn this mess of or do it less or even better let me choose if i want to see more infos/videotrailer etc.
when will they release the cellphone app for gog galaxy?

I'm unable to see anything on the news section. If I try to change "page" I can see for a moment the news but they disappear in the blink of the moment.
With this GOG Client, i'm unable to look the GOG Trailers in Fullscreen Mode.... a basic future in all others clients.
So 3 or 4 years ago, I don't recall really, GOG downloaded and then extracted temp files on my ssd, and then moved them on to my hdd (where they should have been extracted to begin with). Is it still doing that? This is where I want you to be more like steam, and god knows you guys are trying, but it's not cool to download to your storage device only to have "galaxy" waste precious ssd writes.

same problem here.
Since the design change, the Now On Sale and News parts of the store suffer from this problem.

I see, so I'm not the only one, good. I found it a bit odd since nobody seems to have reported this...

Actually, at least 3 people did.

gog, I like the slightly bigger images under the "discover games" section of the gog home page. Can you update the galaxy client images on the left to the same sizes?
The Now on Sale, and News areas, are finally displaying properly. Thanks for getting that fixed. Much appreciated. However, when I try to search for games, nothing appears. I guess there's still stuff to work out.

Anyone having issues sorting games by "Oldest first"? Spear of Destiny (1993) appears at the bottom, as if it just got released. Also by sorting "Newest first", SoD is the first game on the list
