No wonder my wishlist went down by exactly 1 game today. I was trying to figure out why, and if it's something I missed.

While I do appreciate the announcement of a de-listing massively, doing it less than 2 hours before actual removal makes it kind of useless...

Thanks for the heads-up, probably for the best.

With these new public profiles and all that, games that are no longer sold, but appear in someone's profile, are kind of like most wanted rare items, for some, at least.

Interesting thing to think about.

At some point developers switch to other projects. Then the game shouldn't receive too many updates thus it would be risk-free to release here.

On the other hand, limiting said refunds to purchases prior to the announcement would solve the problem, but I guess they just wanted to save themselves some trouble.

Agreed! I am in the same situation. While I do appreciate GOG taking additional steps to make sure those games they are selling are still up to date it does not seem as if this time they were forced to keep a deadline. If I am wrong here - apologies.

This right here, i'd be very interested to know the detailed specific differences of updating on GOG compared to Steam. I suspect GOG is still lacking in this area in some ways.

Edit: Found it. It's here. The interesting part is this (under the DRM-free section):
"The most annoying side of doing DRM-Free is having to manage separate builds and upload full packages for each new version on every DRM Free site... It's just much less practical than having it centralized in one unique place, which also allows to upload only the differences and not the whole thing again. Which is great, especially when you've got bad internet...!"
