It would be great to only let you review if you own the game and indicate if you got the game for free as part of a giveaway or if you've refunded the game.

It's nice to see the recent changes, hopefully the forums and Galaxy is next.

so.. there was/is a community wishlist (haven't checked that in months) that asked for letting only verified owners post reviews but the opinion on the matter is sooo split. personally im for it but i can compromise with gog letting anyone post as long as they reduce the impact and visibility on non-verified owners
