I love this idea of bringing back the OG versions from the dead and making them DRM-free.
More options for the player are always a good idea. Plus, GOG and publishers want our money, right? More versions out there, more to possibly buy. Win-win for dev's, publishers, and gamers altogether.
Also, this let the players buy and decide which version they want or if they just want them all. Heck, for change of pace - maybe one go around, do the OG versions - another one, do the Redux (newer version). Can always rotate them, too.
A game that I'd really love to see this happen for is Deus Ex: Human Revolution Complete Edition (with base-game and all DLC's), since I really would like to basically play the Missing Link DLC on its own like we used to be able to do in the old-version and to basically get it away from Steam.
More of this please or trying to sell me ALL of the versions of Old and Remaster, GOG!
