    I love this from GOG. I already liked them because of their game conservation efforts, but now I like them even more.

      I cant get by their 2fa. It sends the code like 4 hours later which by then the code times out.

      I also got like 10 capchas for 1 of the codes (just one after the other) then it threw an error anyway. I appreciate their gesture, but so far it’s been like 30 minutes of wasted time with nothing to show for it.

        Some countries banned Postal 2 so they can’t give it to you if you live in, as a random example, Germany.

        Congratulations on already living in the future they’re protesting. Realistically they probably should have recognized this would be a problem and told you the specific error but their giveaway codes aren’t really meant for this so whatever.

        If you do live in a country like that you could, however, spend $70 on a year of Mullvad and be a Canadian as far as GOG knows or cares.

        Maybe you should be doing that anyways, regardless of whether you want horny games and also Postal 2.

    I clicked on the bundle because I was curious to see it and now I have a bunch of porn games I guess. I don’t have an issue with porn games but I don’t play porn games so now I have a bunch of trash cluttering my library.

    I was able to kinda hide them but they are still there.

      Huniepop is genuinely one of the better match 4 type games out there and has a bathing suit only mode if you are feeling adventurous.

        None of them are even remotely close to the sort of games I enjoy, the porn part isn’t the issue I just don’t care for “dating” sims or puzzle games.

    I want to buy more from GOG but my only gaming system I have is a Steam Deck. I know the native Linux stuff should work ok but u always have problems getting windows stuff to work. Either through Heroic Launcher or Proton. I must be doing something wrong. All the guides I find are just wrong or out of date.

    If only GOG was this militant when it involved Taiwanese developers (Red Candle Game devs), I would still be using their platform. They haven’t even allowed Nine Sols on it, so I haven’t bothered going back yet or have even recommended them to the degree I usually did over Steam.

    It’s not even that they had to censor themselves, it’s their woeful attempt at an excuse. It’s funny whom they kneel before and whom the are activists against. Were it a China “Many Gamers” matter, do not expect them to have been as willing…

        It has a lot to do with how it would have affected Cyberpunk 2077’s release in China and it’s huge gaming market. I mean, just look at the downvote count in my previous comment, there are a lot of butthurt factory trolls downvoting it from the red stained Lemmy “Marxist Leninist” foundries. China cannot accept any political commentary, specially coming from Taiwan, and the devs got punished for it. The devs capitulated, but China did not care, so why bother?
