Do you like RPGs? Do you like the Witcher? Do you like Card Games? Do you like Tyranny? Do you like Pillars of Eternity?

Trick question, of course you do. You love Pillars of Eternity.

To announce the Public Beta of GWENT: The Witcher Card Game, GOG are running a celebratory RPG week with discounts on a few RPG titles:

Public Beta: GWENT – The Witcher Card Game
May 24th marks the anticipated start of the GWENT Public Beta – together with CD PROJEKT RED, we're thrilled to invite every single gamer to join us in-game and smash a few card kegs. Simply check out GWENT on GOG.com starting on May 24, 4:00 PM CEST to join us!

Celebratory RPG Week
We're celebrating GWENT's origins with a weeklong sale on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and expansions (-50%), plus more of our favorite RPG series like Pillars of Eternity (-40%), Tyranny (-33%), Legend of Grimrock (-50%) and more up to 85% off.

On top of this, for our aRPG enthusiasts, we're happy to announce that Throne of Darkness is re-releasing on GOG – this Thursday, May 25, at 3:00 PM CEST! A 2001 action RPG with a die-hard following, Throne of Darkness bring the joys of Diablo to feudal Japan, with squad-based tactics on top of its relentless clickery.​

To help celebrate / shamelessly promote themselves, GOG are offering us 5 copies of Tyranny and 5 copies of Pillars of Eternity. If you'd like to score yourself a copy of either game (and you would, wouldn't you), simply make something in MS Paint that:

  • Expresses your joy of The Witcher.
  • Shows how much you love Pillars of Eternity.
  • Somehow involves Tyranny.
  • Celebrates your love of RPGs.
  • Depicts the day Cleve actually releases Grimoire.

To submit your entries:
1. Upload them to imgur or similar image sharing site.
2. Either post a reply in the comments of this news item and include a link to your upload or use the Contact Us form (if you're stingy and don't have an account here yet you lazy bum).
3. Let us know which game you want (Tyranny or PoE but we know you want PoE).

Our judges will pick the 10 best / funniest / people we like who we want to give prizes to and award them a copy of the game.

Competition closes on the 8th June, when hopefully we've received enough entrants that we're able to give away all copies.

So get cracking and show us your love of RPGs.

I cannot into MS Paint -BUT- I have a four-year-old son who is much more skilled in the art of drawing than me, and if I can ride his talents to a copy of Tyranny, I definitely will!
(And if I cannot, I can at least share this with the rest of the world Codex.)

He is a big fan of The Witcher series and has already made several fanarts of the game:

Geralt (note the two swords - such attention to detail!):

At the time of the Bard's Tale IV Kickstarter many people understandably questioned the competence of inXile to produce a great blobber and many connoisseurs of the art, such as yours truly, demanded that the only living fossil be added to inXiles team to aid them in their time of need and add his decades long experience to their production. Cleve, however, was not too keen on the prospect of having to further delay the ultimate blobber that is Grimoire in order to help some fellow veterans to produce what only could have been an inferior product. Nonetheless, he seemed to have entertained the possibility at least and the enclosed image is a dramatic and artful depiction - that took over 9000 hours in MS paint - of the moment how our very own Uebermensch programmer envisioned his visit to inXile:
