Wut played both Edna and Harvey games on my win 10 machine just fine... and even older daedalic games.

Did you literally have no problem or did you have problem but found a solution? The game is unplayable for me and apparently others going by the Steam forums. It's the first game I've given up on in ages, nothing worked.

No problem whatsoever, installed the the first Edna and Harvey game just to confirm nothing changed since and it ran fine. Granted this was steam so maybe gog just doesn't install the Java Runtime environment 1.8 it needs or my special technique of forgetting to update drivers for half a decade pays off again as older game runs just fine.

Everyone always rushes to blame the OS when it's almost always something else.

They might actually pull this off. Good for them.

I received the invite yesterday, and I took a look at it. And it actually works pretty well for the basic install and library functions even in beta stage. It has cool boxarts, not the stupid GOG library boxarts, which is an additional plus. Then I deleted it because I realised that I only use one client, the Steam one. But if someone wants to integrate all of their libraries, it's pretty cool.

I seem to recall you were compaining about Steam in one of your episodes years ago. Then again GOG did terminate your affiliate status, so yeah...

How good is Kingdom Come's DLC? I keep waiting for a decent sale on the "royal edition" but it doesn't seem to be happening soon. Might just get the basic one.

Another week-long sale: https://af.gog.com/promo/20190722_weekly_sale?as=1649904300

 

[SpaceGhost]

Didn't the GOG people once say something about sales devaluing games, which is why they didn't want them? That sure fell through. Glad it did though.

Soon the promises of a Cyberpunk 2077 being an RPG will also fall through. Won't be so glad about that.

Got Rex Nebular and Bloodnet along with the Underrail expansion. They're from juuuuust before my time and never played them, probably never will honestly, but for $1.50 why not.

 

[markec]

I was wondering when will we finally see some actual good old games and we got CyberStorm, bought it instantly.

Now I still want Cave Wars, Civil War Generals 2 and Star General.

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

Nice, Cyberstorm's one of my favorites. Hopefully they never get or speak of Cyberstorm 2.

 

[DalekFlay]

I'll throw them $5 for New Vegas DRM free I guess. It's stupid but... uhh... I'm stupid? I dunno.

Its actually a good investment seeing how in 10 years it will be replaced by Beamdogs remastered edition that will feature slightly different UI and bunch of gay characters.

Bethesda sale : https://af.gog.com/promo/bethesda_week?as=1649904300

GOG doesn't even have the clout to get old Bethesda titles any more. Let that sink in for a minute. That's like getting turned down by the fat drunk chick at the party. Did Poland run out of potatoes to barter?

 

[ScrotumBroth]

They used to give out Daggerfall for free with each purchase. Anything older is necrophilia.

They still do and Arena too.

What old Bethesda games are there left besides Terminator 2029?

 

[rusty_shackleford]

and bunch of gay characters.

It already had a bunch of gay characters

You can never have enough gay characters.

Other than licensed shit they sure can't sell like Terminator, not sure what else you'd want on there? Unless you mean "older" Bethesda titles like Dishonored, which yeah that would be nice to see.

I can remember maybe 4 or so. Doesn't bother me since they're not the obnoxious kind, and the issue of their sexuality is handled intelligently (eg Veronica being something of a pariah in the Brotherhood). It's also a future sci-fi setting so isn't breaking immersion as it would in the medieval-fantasy fare.

It's a step up from Viscera Cleanup Detail, which has you cleaning up shit for no real reason. At least here you're cleaning shit up in order to buff up an asset and sell it at a higher price.
