Hello everyone, and hello to the GoG staff.
Well... when I got the E-Mail telling me that GoG had the RoA series on sale, I immediately jumped the opportunity to get it. My old CDs are getting scratchy and I don't know how much longer they'll live.
But after the installation came a bit of disappointment: Both games lack the CD audio tracks. As you'll see from the RoA 1 soundtrack download, those were much, much better quality than you'll get from MIDI, even with a good sound font, and add a lot of flavor to the game.
Is there any chance the download will get updated with the CD version of the games?
On that note: The soundtrack download for RoA 2 is VERY incomplete. What gives?

I have sent the following ticket, I will follow up with GOG's response:

"As you may know, Realms of Arkania ("RoA") recently has gotten a Remake so I think it is a good time to readdress the issues GOG's version of RoA 1+2 have. I hope you might be able to come to a solution with the current licenseholders.

1. RoA 1+2 are not the CD versions and lack the audio tracks.

2. They lack the Heldenedition content (Heroic content).

3. Original German language is missing.
