Thronebreaker was never going to be a "platform seller" and they were delusional to think so. But CD Projekt could likely have earned more $$$ in total if they'd made Cyberpunk 2077 a GOG-exclusive for a few months. I guess it was deemed too risky.
they limited themselves to 'buy us in gog, moar money will go to cdpr this way'

For steam games that won't come to gog I guess there is GamersGate. They at least have Max Payne, Quantum Break, and Numen that I've been wanting to get. Last game I snagged there was Mordor but it directly tries to install and.. win3.1 games don't directly install on win10. I should have bought physical media from the creator.

Sure thing, buddy! Gog is a gold mine waiting to happen!:lol:

PS: Fucking lol at the "We don't need you, we can release on our own platform!"-part. We saw how exceedingly well that one panned out for them when they made Thronebreaker a gog-exclusive.

Who cares about finishing the SSI 5 star general catalogue or bringing in more Raven games when you can have that, right. They probably aren't even trying anymore.

I see GOG has joined Steam in bringing...quality content to their platform.

Gog is one of those modern miracles, where as soon as you criticize them for doing something, they immediately dog-pile it, and do that thing to an order of magnitude greater than your initial criticism.

It's almost like someone at Gog reads the thread here and skims the pages, looking for ideas on how to "improve" their business model.

Wonder if recent Activion aquirements means easier/harder time with keeping/getting new/old releases here?
Or maybe M$ buy GOG to drop old trash and help them keep afloat and getting new stuff from other IP owners?

Bring back Heretic 2 so we can close this saga finally!

NWN2 and IWD2 are on sale guys. Most of you probably have them, but I didn't, so now my collection of classic cRPGs is (mostly) complete.
