Option to permanently remove games from our library
Added by
Nathan77195 Sometimes you know you're never gonna play a game, or you regret buying / it turns out to be crap etc. I like to curate my game / music libraries and remove stuff I no longer want, I know I'm not alone. Sure, you can hide them, but that isn't enough to satisfy my ocpd-like nature :P
Steam already has this feature; it would be great to be able to do this on GOG.
You can currently message the lovely people at GOG to permanently delete games, but I would love to be able to do this without bothering them!
Fuguss Seriously, this is beyond sad that this even has to be a request.
Honestly, you shouldn't even be able to add Alphas, Demos, Prologues, and trials to your account at ALL. It should just be a free download whenever you want.
I have a few of them I added over the years without thinking about it that I regret and they are still there BECAUSE WE CAN'T FRIGGIN REMOVE THEM.
Got them marked as hidden but that shouldn't be needed just to have them not show up in your page, let alone if you have a batch downloader that doesn't register if the game is hidden or not.
xman1 I got this stupid Antifa game I got for free (Tonight We Riot) and didn't know what it was when I clicked add to my library. Horrible game and horrible people. Would love to get rid of it permanently. Also have 2 versions of Fallout and Fallout 2 and would like to get rid of one of them too. I have demo's that I purchased where I have bought the full game, so would like to get rid of those too.
ChrisEU74 A 30 day deletion timer for this potential feature could help solve issues of users changing their minds as well as serve as a measure against hackers trying to exploit this feature.
Utharos +1, sometimes hiding the game is not enough, you just want to deeply cleanup library - let us remove it permanently from the account if one wish to.
SiyaJepla Please bring this feature
Danny_Dogg Nearly 6 years after... GOG did a Legend of Keepers giveaway not long ago, why would i want the Prologue in my library ? I hope GOG gives the option one day, once its done, it will be Epic's turn to be hassled with this. Anyway happy 2024 to everyone :)
ZX12 This shoul be implemented at least for demos.
ChrisEU74 Please add this as a feature.
Sharp_oner Give us the option ASAP!
BranjoHello Without a doubt, this is my most wanted feature from GOG.
Hopefully they'll figure a way to do it.
Both Steam and Epic have this working like a charm, the first one even without contacting support, so don't understand why GOG refuse to make it happen.
fr33kSh0w2012 Yeah I understand I'd love this feature to remove everything, and get some money back at least 50% of the money!
kage6613 absolutely bonkers that this isn't a feature...
sennyseven This is precisely why I have decided not to buy anything else from gog.
Rudgary Just finished going through two decades of games I definitely didn't want on my Steam account, I deleted A LOT, now when I look at my much smaller list I feel very relieved. I dislike going on to my download page on GOG knowing there are plenty of games I'd like to remove, bringing it down to size and making it easier to access the games I like.
Dv4d3r For linux person down below (cant edit comment my previous comment), use Lutris and follow the instructions. Use the techpowerup AIO visualbasic to get all versions without conflicts, it runs all games through the launcher with a little tweaking on a couple. As a linux user the tweaking is minor (edit a conf to use direct 9 or 11 before launching for example, Witcher 2 or 3). Anyway good luck!
Dv4d3r yeah pls it causes clutter and just sucks in general not to be able to remove stuff for whatever reason. Just say if people choose to remove and not hide (multiple accepts), you wont put it back and you dont have to deal with any other requests about it (unless you want to)
rossco103 This is my number 1 wishlist item, please add this
paulc333 This should really be an option. The Hide feature is ok, but some of the games I want to get rid of were added to my library without me adding or asking. Others were free games I added and then quickly discovered I did not like. We should be able to remove these ones at least, if not purchases. Do it GOG!
CyberC4 I hope they do this and add Linux support.
-76- Why the F'K haven't you fixed this yet gog???
stic Or at least allow to mark a game as 'I'll never buy it' and let me filter by it ;-)
Nightsmaiden Also, not being able to get rid of demos once I try them is a major discouragement to try demos. I have like forty in a relatively small library and hiding them doesn't satisfy- I tried them, I either wishlisted the game or decided I don't want it, now I want to be rid of the demo! Similar with free games. If I am committing to them forever, I am much less likely to try them!
Bigghu Hallelujah! I thought I was the only one here who thought that. I have two games that I got for free without being on the site that I regretted because every time I refresh they appear on top, I hate it!
JackAcorn I too would like this feature.
AtesGocmen Agree
numberonehangestan This is a really simple & small feature that would be good.
5P3K73R for now, you'll have to live with your purchase of Sakura Clicker
##@@##@@ Please add this option. Like others have said. Steam has this capability. It shouldn't be difficult to implement.
cachirulo i'd also be very glad if GOG copied Steam on this one
##@@##@@ Same here. I have a couple of games that I regret buying and would love to get rid off.
I think Steam implemented this feature nicely as it still allows people to restore the game you chose to remove so, if you somehow did it by accident or someone hacked your account, you could still get the game back.
durandl I second this. I have way too much games in my library that I will most likely never play. Or I simply don't want to own anymore. I even contacted gog support to remove a bunch. But they said it was not possible to do so.
Removing games from Steam is simple and I would very much have this option for gog as well.
