This is also why I often buy games on gog that I already "own" on steam.

This is why I “acquire” games I already own on steam. Or buy first from GoG. I’m not paying twice for same game.

Sometimes they're not on gog and I want to play them. Other times it's 4$ on steam and 50$ on gog. I'll buy it for 4 on steam so I can play it, then wait for the sale on gog down the road. Sometimes it's a convenience thing cause I have a steam deck and it's just nice to deal with native compatibility.
