If you're a GOG customer, how often do you use Galaxy instead of web?

 Mon Apr 11 20:54:42 +0000 2016

Also why is it so hard for GOG to set their ScummVM games to OpenGL (no filtering) instead of forcing 640x480?

 Mon Apr 11 21:06:36 +0000 2016

All that requires is putting "gfx_mode=opengl_nearest" in the config file. How does 640x480 look on you LED monitor? I'm gonna say like shit

 Mon Apr 11 21:08:50 +0000 2016

Remember, if you bought Goblins games on GOG, you might want to play the floppy versions of the 2nd & 3rd game.

That depends on how your modern day monitor stretches 960x600 to your screen resolution. Results may vary.

And if you looked at EGA LOOM on a normal screen, you'd see that it looks nothing like x3.

I.... don't see the connection.

Ok, like I said, it depends on your monitor's native resolution. Here are my results, 3x on the left:
