pazZzurro: So, no Cyber Monday then?

joveian: It took me a bit to figure out but of course the answer is that this year for Cyber Monday they are sticking a large Cyberpunk 2077 banner in your face, uncluttered by a larger sale. It might even work well for them since there seem to be a fair number of people who only use GOG for CDPR games (i.e. a "get someone who came for CP2077 to the checkout quickly before they have second thoughts" strategy). Featuring a few games of different types might be better for people who don't buy many games than a large sale and for those of us who do buy a bunch of games the Winter Sale usually has better deal anyway. I wonder if they might even start the Winter Sale at the beginning of December this year like they have done a few years.
Ya, I thought the "Black Friday" sale would last through the end of the day on Cyber Monday and perhaps feature some additional flash deals. But, sadly, it was not to be. I'll also hope the Winter Sale starts early as that's where I purchase most of my games for the year.

Heh, they do seem eager this year to push Cyberpunk. It was on sale pre-black friady, black friday ...it came and went... and still Cyberpunk is -50% :P

albinistic: Okay, I see what you mean. Gotta wonder what state of mind the people are in. Just like for mortal kombat developers.
Hahaha... ohh dear lord...
This game is gonna have it hard when the anti-video game shills sniff it out :P
And then a bunch of gamers is gonna come running in the defence of this "highly important video game push into the R-rated territory".
Heh, I don't care either way. Just gonna buy some popcorn and watch the debate unfold :)

In all seriousness though I don't mind brutal, even macabre video games or anime, or such. As long as they keep one important aspect - all of that violence must be motivated somehow within the plot. If it's just rivers of blood and gore for the sake of gore, than this is pure drivel.

joveian: I happened to notice recently that they are using a cookie called "cat_ab" set to either "old" or "new" to determine what view you get and also seem to only be using the new view for some accounts (not without an account). So in Firefox if you get the new view logged in you can open the search page in a container to get the old catalog search and then open game pages under your account (the two ways available by default if you have containers enabled are: right click on a link and you can open the link in a particular container and right click on a tab and you can open the same page as the tab in a new container). There is a recommended (monitored by Mozilla) Firefox addon called Cookie Quick Manager that lets you edit cookies and might work to switch an account, although I haven't tried it and they might tie it to the account in a way that just changing the cookie won't work (or just work until the cookie expires in a couple of days, although the same addon lets you ignore expiration for particular cookies as well).

eiii: Thank you so much for this information! Changing that cookie to "old" works for me and I can, at least for now, use Ghorint's add-on again. :D

avatar
joveian: But, the new search does finally have "sort by price" :).
avatar
eiii: Ghorint's add-on has that and much more since a long time. It's so much better than GOG's buggy and half-assed new implementation. Unfortunately it does not work anymore with the new search page.
Great information about the cookie, indeed :)
The script wasn't working because I still had the old store page. Now that I knew how to switch the new one, I've updated it to work with the new one as well.
