First the pointless bundling of the Classic game, when the standalone was already available.
That ones on Larian, and doubles the download for no damn reason.
Just give new owners a key to the standalone version, and keep it separate, like DOS1, and DOS1EE.
Then since release last Friday, we've had 4 "Updates" to the game, and every one of them has required a full download of the bundled games.
So we should have had a 25 GB Download, and 3 patches of a few MB each, say 30 GB at most.
Instead we've had 4 times 45 GB, for a whopping 180 GB in less than a week.
No consideration for those with data caps.
GOG usually provides patches, and was doing, despite the infuriating removal of old ones.
So I suspect it's all Larian's fault that we're not getting patches now.
It doesn't really matter which is the one at fault, it needs fixing by both of them.
Also no the answer isn't use Galaxy, we get the offline installers from GOG because all store clients are unacceptable.
50 GB updates are a disgrace, and it needs to stop
