Ancient-Red-Dragon: Lots of games make zero sense to release on GOG, for example, multiplayer-based games for which multiplayer is the primary focus of the game.
And yet, things like this are still shamelessly distributed through GOG.

Another sidenote: Tony Tough can be found on fireflowergames.

Memecchi: Hades has always been a weird case, Pyre took less than a year to come here, same with Transistor... but it's been 5 years since Hades got release, and there's no logical explanation for such a long delay

So maybe Supergiant just doesn't want to release the game here
It was released in early access in 2018. Full release on Winows was in 2020, so three years.

I totally forgot it was on early access lol, ok so that leaves us with +2 years of radio silence if we exclude the usual 1 year delay

I mean it still looks bad, but not as bad

Carrier Command (currently published by MicroProse)
Task Force 1942: Surface Naval Action in the South Pacific (currently published by Atari / Nightdive)
Tank: M1A1 Abrams Battle Simulation (also Atari / Nightdive)
Tornado (currently published by Interplay)

As long as they come with full manuals.

- All the remaining PC games based on Disney/Pixar movies (Toy Story 1, 2 & 3, Tarzan, Emperor's New Groove, 102 Dalmatians: Puppies to the rescue, etc.). Unfortunately, Disney hasn't been very active on GOG these last years, so these might take a long time to reach here.

- All Looney Tunes PC games (Bugs Bunny Lost in Time, Bugs & Taz Time Busters, Sheep Raider, etc.). Warner Bros. Games has been releasing some of its older titles lately, so I don't see why they couldn't release these too.

- Lego The Lord of the Rings and Hobbit, especially after the Shadow of Mordor games being released here. These ones should have come here a long time ago!

RoboCop: Rogue City

If Nacon can release day one titles like War Hospital, where the hell is this one?

Steam reserved?
If it runs well enough on that other location publishers may become lazy. So, preferably games should not run to great on the "main platform", else other platforms could be doomed.

At least for EGS they are willing to throw a lot of coins into someones pot, so, naturally it is in many terms still a valid option.

Mainwhile, the cooking brain-juice is praising the capitalistic way, which at least is fully authentic.

True. LEGO LOTR even had a DRM-free DVD release. Strange we do not have that one here.

I heared that there was a licence problem with the original movie OST so they could not bring it to any other platform, but of course that's not confirmed.

We also miss Lego Jurassic Park, Hobbit (the desastrous release with the non-promised last chapter), Incredibles btw. and of course the last two Lego Star Wars games.

If I had to guess I'd say that they just don't care.

Who knows, maybe we get a Bluebrixx Star Trek game at some point once they have their minifigures ready :D

- Castlevania Anniversary Collection (we already have the Contra collection here, so why not this one too)

- Raiden III x Mikado Maniax
Raiden IV x MIKADO remix
(the two Raiden games missing - but possibly it has to do with the soundtrack)

- Space Hulk: Tactics (lots of games published by Focus are present on GOG, including WH40K-themed ones like Boltgun and Necromunda)

- Commandos: Strike Force (available DRM-free on Zoom, all the other Commandos games are here - except the HD remaster of #3, to be exact)

- Harbinger
Gunlok
(they're DRM-free on GamersGate)

- Condemned: Criminal Origins (hopefully coming after the deal with SEGA)

- and a number of games that are already sold DRM-free on other stores:
Jets 'n' Guns
Gunpoint
Super Cyborg
Baba is You
Stephen's Sausage Roll
Patrick's Parabox
Filcher
Zortch
Vomitoreum
...


(then, maybe there IS a reason why they're not on GOG... I don't know!)
