The first Drakensang game (Drakensang: The Dark Eye) is now available on GOG for most territories. It doesn’t seem to be available in Australia currently, and possibly New Zealand too if the license restrictions are anything like Steam. So it may not be available in your region for some people.
How do you kick off a Black Friday\Cyber Monday sale event? By adding what looks to be all of the Batman games released since 2009’s Batman: Arkham Asylum to your catalogue of course.
Not to mention a new cult classic release with Diggles: The Myth of Fenris. Although depending on your language you might remember it having a different name due to localisation, I hear that the German localisation called it Wiggles for example. Closest modern genre fit I could give you would be something like a Colony Management game.
GOG’s Winter Sale event has just begun, running through to the 4th of January 2021, and to celebrate you can currently get Prison Architect for free within the next 72 hours. Additionally, two major releases have dropped at the same time as well with Ancestors: The Human Odyssey and Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus now available DRM-free on GOG.
The Prison Architect giveaway is located on the main page, just have to scroll down a bit to find it.
I will probably buy a few things in this sale. Most likely to be bought is definitely Darksiders 3 - @Rock8man 's enthusiasm about the game coupled with a nice discount convinced me to get this one.
I might also buy Phoenix Point: Year One Edition - I’d love to play a “XCOM but not quite XCOM” variant. This might be it. And since Emperor of the Fading Suns has a nice price and discount, I might get that one too.
A piece of paper in the game had references to Xi, the word ‘moron’, and the Disney character Winnie the Pooh: the latter is a comparison that has been widely used to mock Xi, to the extent that China banned an entire Winnie the Pooh movie because of it.
Because these specific gamers are from mainland China and are angry someone dared to criticize their country and its beloved leader. GOG seems to be doing a Blizzard.
Yeah, unfortunately, when this one game can lead to you getting cut off from the whole Chinese market, a company like GOG is going to be swayed pretty easily by “fan outcry.”
