Great, right after picking Expeditions Viking on Steam they put it on sale.

You can always refund if you under 2 hours of playtime.

Cool, Rage of Mages is finally on sale.

 

[Doktor Best]

Spend $15 during the sale to get Starcrawlers free

Yeah but on what?

I'm close to unfollowing, can't stand this twee writing style.

Probably a coincidence, but if she's lurking here, at least I provided useful feedback regarding not annoying your potential customers.

Will probably start buying stuff on GOG. Not that I want to support dirty pollacks or more sequels to Witcher but they have around 70% of the games Steam has and actually offer decent promos like free Starcrawlers, etc. Steam just puts up the same shit prices and says, 'yeah, take it or fuck off.'

There wasn't anything from my wishlist on sale but I ended up buying Stars in Shadow and Deadly Premonition. May have been a waste of shekels but together that's slightly more than the $15 necessary to unlock free Starcrawlers.

I know GOG wants to make money off sales, but isn't it sort of a bro move for a subsidiary of CD Projekt to call other RPG's 'taking it to an unrepresented level' and 'one hell of an adventure'?

I didn't like Witcher 3 but CDPR had me hooked as a customer since W1/W2 and seem to be the biggest bros in the industry right now.

Already played past the limit. Might buy it again on Gog if game is good enough for a replay.

So I can see when there's a new release without having to actually check the site.

Bought all Sudden Strike games+some minor stuff (Evil Island, Revenant and Startopia) but did not touched Starcrawlers. Just another case of "pre-release hype that died after release".
Still searching for that mission in Sudden Strike that was put on demo disc I bought in random kiosk. I know it's the german campain but that's all.
Heard Evil Island get ridiculously easy when you craft your own spear and put healing spell on it. Guess what - they were right.

Why not subscribe their news RSS feed. Much less clutter than Twitter.

I wouldn't get too excited about retailers making "bro moves" if I were you

Reminds me of that time they threatened to sue a bunch of people:

"DRM-free" but using mystery "tracking technology" to catch pirates. Nice.

 

[Alienman]

Galaxy made mandatory.

Surprise!

 

[Hobo Elf]

You snooze you lose. I just heard that there was a StarCrawlers promo that I missed. Oh well.

 

[Incantatar]

"DRM-free" but using mystery "tracking technology" to catch pirates. Nice.

They basically give the games away for free after a couple of years. I don't see any reason to torrent at all.

Galaxy made mandatory.

Surprise!

Wat? It doesn't even work on Linux.

 

[Alienman]

Windows detected a trojan in the Hidden & Dangerous 2 exe so I checked the forum for the game on gog and discovered this:

https://af.gog.com/forum/hidden_dangerous_series/trojan_detected?as=1649904300

Now, I'm not saying that the exe is infected but it is suspicious. I checked the pirate bay version of Hidden & Dangerous 2 and someone there is complaining that the exe is infected with a trojan. I hope it's not the case of someone on gog downloading a crack and saying it is now DRM free. Hasn't this happened before?

Trojan? No. But stuff "borrowed" from Sailors of Seven Seas? Yep. Arcanum comes to mind.

People are still surprised about this? Using cracks for official releases is a normal thing since all the cheap re-release series of classic games became a thing years ago.
