Until replaying it thanks to GOG, I had no idea Normality had 3 divergent paths in the middle of the game.

Since the counter is moving at a regular speed, has anyone figured out when GOG expects to hit 6 million?

around the years 1998-2002, I started characters and spent so much time trying to roll good stats! So long that when the game was finally started I needed a break... and never came back to the game.... multiple times.

If any of you who want to play I Have No Mouth do manage to get your hands on a copy, it IS covered by ScummVM, so while GOG would be great for distribution, compatibility is already covered.

When I've had no opinion through this, I've actually been voting for the cheaper one, so hopefully someone gets a cool game they wanted for $2.39.

A few months ago I went to play Freddy Pharkas for the first time. Hit the copy protection, found that Al Lowe actually provides it on his website, and then never went back to the game.

Andrigaar posted:If they do go this route and it harps up something close to Desura, I see no problems. Nothing I want mind you, but I'm not even sure if Desura has any DRM in it since it acts more like a front end for their community and optional patching of installed games. Desura is very friendly. Their client is optional (though they do strongly encourage it), you can download your games directly from their website. Desura itself is not DRM and does not have DRM, but they allow games to have their own DRM.

al-azad posted:Kingdom is a butchered port of the arcade game Thayer's Quest by the Dragon's Lair guys. Unlike Dragon's Lair it's a Choose Your Adventure type game instead of a crazy reflexes game. If you're really interested (and it's a neat little project that never had the popularity of Dragon's Lair) the DVD usually comes packed with Dragon's Lair 1, 2, and Space Case. If I'm really interested, this costs whatever I want starting at 1 cent.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:I'm not trying to argue with you, but why is this the case? I remember installing all of my games to C:\games ( Windows wants programs to be storing permanent files in Program Files, and files that change somewhere else, like your My Documents. Many old games don't really have good rules about where to make their save files and probably do it in the same folder as they exist, which can require you run the game as administrator.

Residual is at the point where Grim Fandango is completeable. That's not exactly the state at which GOG could use it, but if you want to play the game now, it's not too bad.

JustJeff88 posted:In addition, Witcher 2 went down to $7.49 over the Thanksgiving sales but, even though I wanted it (and I certainly couldn't argue with the price), I held off because it's on GOG and I will wait until it goes on sale there for $15 or less. Yes, I am willing to pay twice as much to get a game on GOG - I feel that strongly about DRM and have that much affection for GOG's business and distribution model. GOG will actually provide you a GOG copy of Witcher 1 or 2 for free if you give them a serial number from somewhere else, like a Steam copy. http://www.gog.com/witcher2/backup Though buying it directly from GOG does give them more money.

It's interesting it took them this long to add DLC and to do it with this game. There's a few indie games (Spacechem) on there already that have dlc on Steam but it is bundled in on GOG.

I'm wondering how GOG is distributing that Omerta dlc. Knowing those guys from Tropico, there's gonna be a good amount of tiny dlc like that, is each going to have a separate installer? That seems really goofy to me. I can understand have a separate installer for something large like an expansion pack on an old game, but if say I bought Crusader Kings 2 on GOG, I sure wouldn't bother installing all their flags and faces dlcs. Letting Steam handle that, or actually mods through Steam Workshop, is a definite advantage to their client program model.

Jamesman posted:Not sure why they would remake the original game (games?) instead of just making an all-new LSL game with the same mechanics as Love For Sail, which is undeniably the best point-and-click adventure game ever designed. They don't have the rights to make a new game yet, only the rights to remake the old ones. They are gonna keep doing these until they can get the full rights or until people stop buying them. I hope they get to do 2 and 3.

If you want it now, or I would say you're gonna have to go Steam, GOG, or wait a year. He's talking about Humble Store, not a Bundle. He wants the dev to sell it themselves, so he gets both a DRM free version and a steam key.
