Can't say it was unexpected, in fact it was very much so, just one more step down that slippery slope you've been on for several years now, leaving absolutely no shred of any value except DRM free for singleplayer, and who knows what may come even from that point of view, thinking of Galaxy and looking at some games already having things tied to registration on 3rd party sites.
Of course, in my case the FPP was irrelevant, here strictly for the original values, a game not respecting them, so having prices above the base one, was firmly on the don't purchase list regardless of level of interest and will remain so. But there were plenty saying that there was actually no such game on GOG because of the FPP, so wonder what they'll say now. (Or don't, actually, since I already see them here being understanding and thanking for the honesty and making good wishes as if this would be a good thing, or even saying that it is directly. Because they don't care about those original values or changing the market. Same as GOG hasn't in so long now.)
Will need to hope MaGOG for pre-legacy mode releases and the price tracking topic for the newer ones will remain valid and constantly updated after this though, to accurately point out the pricing matrix of each game now that the FPP will not be obviously listed to make it clear when one has a price above base.
And yeah, "thank" Epic for this race to the bottom trashing any services game stores may offer even more than they already were. Though, of course, that comes after "thanking" CDP for demanding GOG's growth and them to fund their development costs and more recently create and maintain the whole on-line infrastructure for Gwent... which shouldn't have been on GOG in the first place anyway.
