Title: Question about GOG
Post by: FIZ on February 20, 2014, 06:56:22 pm: So I bought the original FS2 back in 1951, didn't feel too guilty about obtaining it through torrent, but I wanted to use another computer to fred**** around, so I bought a copy on GOG. Can I use that copy on other computers? I've already paid twice for the game.

And the fools in the gaming industry who made this a dead genre for so long.
