what I am looking for is:
1. Drm-free all games on Gog.com (for outdoor, offline gaming, backup), your reason ?

2. GogLight downloader for those big installers (+2Gb total) with some nerd functions for this 20 000+ IT people, do you need it ?

3. More Mind, Will and Faith stimulating games ! (don`t mix with logic only, killing only, religious wars, games).
(people want to be good and smart not bad and stupid right? and even bad people want good neighbours, encourage developers please) what games would you like to see here ?

4. Good communication of Gog`s Officials with People on forum , do you need officials on this forum or other forms of communication ?

5. There is a spoon for a nice soup and there is a spoon for a desserts,
and these are two different spoons that user should not really mix to keep good taste.
Spoon A. Offline installers, profile (sharing thoughts), drm-free games offered by GOG.com and internet browser stuff. Keeping GGalaxy and Gog.com
Spoon B. GOGGalaxy should have absolutely everything, all possible and impossible options without having any effect on the above and for same reasons I want GOGGalaxy optional as it will change this store to much. How do you feel about this?

6. Good promotions of 60%-90% or 25% for introductory period (that would level any regional pricing or exchange rate) What is good games promotion ?

7. Gog really should organise or suggest some players/users meetings in some cities (this one for for late Spring) :D are organised meetings, when it is possible, good idea?

What would you like to see here?

edit:
8. ah, and encouragement in form of quiz with games rewards, to read forum regulations, I have asked about 15 people and only one read it really

9.

high rated
Getting a DRM-free installer for every game I purchase here is really the only thing I expect, because that's the one key differentiator that sets GOG apart from the competition. Any other feature is being matched or done better by GOG's competitors.

(OK, I'll amend my answer to say that bringing back a light-weight client which simply downloads/updates an offline backup copy of your entire library would be REALLY nice. I don't expect it, but it would be another opportunity for GOG to set itself apart from the competition.)

1, 1, 1, and more 1 is all I care about for store / social features. As for 3 (mind stimulating games), it was definitely nice to have The Talos Principle here, and it would be nice to have a few more Very Positive rated "Portal" like games such as The Turing Test & Quantum Conundrum (both Square Enix who brought the newer Deus Ex's here recently so maybe there's some hope...)

Like the others said before:
No. 1. ist the most important, the DRM-free installers are the sole reason, why I am buying exclusivley on GOG.
Every other thing ist nice to have but no dealbreaker or reason to stay with GOG.

DRM-free offline installers.

Older games and bonus content that are not available elsewhere (e.g. Goldbox games, classic versions of BG and NWN).

GOG forums, can still be fun, despite all.

Good communication and great support were nice extras when they happened, but I don't really expect to find them here anymore.

DRM-free offline installers and a good support. That's all.
Posted November 22, 2020
Fair Price is right up there along with DRM-Free and Good Support.

Further to that, it is also about Updates where warranted and continual access to additional good old games at the very least, though nice new ones are always welcome too.

It must also be painless and intuitive to use both your library and game web pages ... including sales ones.

And good reliable download speeds and availability of such 24/7.

Game Downloader and Galaxy should be separate apps, but interactive where desired.

TheEnigmaticT and the GOGdownloader will make everything perfect:)

We should expect more than just DRM-free games though, despite them being the fundamental feature here.
There are other important things that Gog shouldn't neglect, like keeping games properly updated, maintaining standalones, fixing the damn site, etc..

Offline installers, would also be nice if they could get more classic titles (also major new ones of course, but personally I don't care as much about that).

1 – Be DRM-FREE and provide up-to-date offline installers.

2 – Bringing back GOG Mixes and GOG Galaxy 1.0

3 – Supporting Linux

And now for the totally optional and unnecessary stuff that I don't need but would like to see:

4 – New forums

Like seriously.

5 - GOG.com profile enhancements

At the moment the profiles on GOG are really basic, really bland, there is not a lot of customization and I think that's a bit sad.

Instead of having a text bloc as a bio they should add a full tab where you could go into more detail like for example being able to showcase your favorite game from your library, the reviews you posted on the store or upload and display images/screenshots.

They could also add a "Milestone" tab in the achievement section of your profile like on achievement hunter websites. It will present in chronological order "important gamer moments" like :

#1 / #500 / #1000 achievement unlocked
1st / 10th game with 100 % Completion
250H / 500H of total playtime reached

6 – Adding "respectable" Free-To-Play games to GOG ( through Galaxy 2.0 )

Apparently, the GOG team sees the new version of Galaxy as a different entity from GOG.com, a place where they can sell other platform products, including games with DRM. I’m not really a big fan of this idea but if they are going this route then I think they should add Free-To-Play games to the catalog.

It is not always the case but nowadays you can find solid titles that can be fun without spending a dime and I think it would be great to be able to play games using my GOG account (through galaxy) without the need to install a different launcher and create a new account for each game. Similar to what Steam does, you’ll be able to login without additional registration, use your gog wallet for in-game purchases and unlock achievements.

I want fair price program back. Ever since GOG ended it, their catalog is grossly overpriced compared to virtually all other gaming storefronts in many countries.
