I think you would be able to just download all the .bin files and on release day GOG will add the 1mb exe to your account

have you read the thread or did you read the last two message and decided to add your fresh 2c to the conversation?

It would work liked it always worked - this is not a novel invention. You download 98% of the data and the last 2% including the executable gets released on the D-Day. Yes, you might have to download the patch - but you avoid having to download 70GB of data on release day when servers are swarmed with people downloading zero-day patch, people who on principle will not pre-order etc

The downlaod stops after 10% and said: no access to the local hard disk - what is not correct (all is running and space > 1TB) Repeat always the some E4 error. Can someone help? Thanks

They went for the PC physical release just for one reason: shelf space, that's what I find deceitful (thanks for pointing out).
You want to go full digital? Then fully commit to that: many of us here and over the CP forum are aware of the media-less nature of the release but many have simply no idea.

They know damn well that some people still buy in stores or go for the boxed version, now they lock a physical release behind their digital service, this move is simply, to be kind, annoying.

FTFY.
Where you trying to install the game to? Could be some security mechanism is blocking the location.

I'm not going to be able to play it on my current system regardless, but I guess I may as well ask for future reference: does this game contain unavoidable sex or innuendo? That's the mean reason why I've stayed away from the Witcher games, I just don't like to see that stuff in mainstream games.

What are you, Mary Poppins?

First, none of the Witcher sex scenes were compulsory, so you stayed away from those games for no reason.
Second, thia game has an M rating - are you really surprise you gonna see mature stuff there?

And even if in C2077 some of the scenes would be unavoidable (which I doubt), we are talking about Cyberpunk - genre, where decadence, sex, drugs, music and style over substance are in the forefront (even Mike Pondsmith said about it´s own creation that it´s a warning, not an aspiration) - are you really gonna pick this one thing and arbitrarily say you´re not gonna play this game, because it´s there? Really? O.o

But gore and chopping people's heads off is ok? I mean depiction of sex in Cyberpunk is probably the mildest potentially offensive material there is... If you are looking for family friendly entertainment, this is definitely not it.

No, I play some proper smut when I'm in the mood. But when it comes to mainstream games, especially RPGs where I try to be immersed, I find it jarring and uncomfortable, just as I would IRL.

You sure? I played Witcher 2 and it had sex and nudity within minutes. Some of the actual porn I play has more restraint than that.

Only the sex bothers me, I'm not a soccer mom. And I didn't know it was supposed to be a defining aspect of the genre. And yeah, sorry to say, but that kind of thing can really sour me on a game. Maybe if it's one small part of the game that's tame like the club in Dragonfall, I can let it slide.

I'm not a moral crusader or anything, just trying to avoid material that I personally find uncomfortable in specific genres.

Jeez, I can't believe all the people whining about Galaxy. If you object on principle to it, just wait a day or so until the offline installers are added. The entitlement that some people seem to have here is ridiculous. If you're going to complain about one of the best providers of DRM-free games in this way, maybe video games as a whole just aren't for you.

Yeah how dare people not want gog to turn into steam 2.0. We must not be "real gamers" even though I personally have played video games my entire life...

Same for me. Has it been fixed for you?

You seem to have that back to front. Those who are asking for offline installers to merely match Galaxy functionality (something already done for previous games, even for pre-loading) are simply asking for equality. The real "entitlement" comes from those who believe "I choose to use a client therefore I deserve more than someone else who paid the same money for the same game"...

If there were genuine technological reasons for the disparity, then you'd have a point. But there really isn't. As a reality check to those with short memories, even The Witcher 2 (2012) had pre-loading of offline installers. GOG Galaxy didn't even exist until 2014, so no-one's asking for anything that GOG didn't already have 8 years ago...

And speaking of inequality; CDPR did, according to some early testers, "censor" the game or scale the promised game down.

They can't show this in video sequences yet, but there are apparently a seriously lack of male nudity, something that even MadQueen is baffled over. F.ex. male strippers/workers are none to be seen in a world that is obsessed about exposing themselves (not unlike today).

I mean, in a ES Skyrim setting it would make no sense to have much of male nudity, but like today (realistically), I find it hard to believe that even in 2077 that these are nowhere to be seen. Funny enough, she was looking for one-night-stands and some romance. Even early taglines for the game were something like "adult world for adults" and "your world - your choice".

I know this is strange coming from a straight male with a straight wife, but I think If you're going to make a game about the deviant side of the human nature and psyche (which is exactly what Mike P. are talking about), you might as well show both sides of the coin, for both men and woman. I really don't get it, it IS an FPP RPG game after all.

Was it to show that only women are exploited or to hinder straight woman gamers from getting exited(!)?

EDIT: The comment she made “You do need a horny art director who is into men...” seem to be true.

Entitled to the things GOG advertises on their website. Golly, what a selfish lot these people are. There's nothing wrong with people standing up for their principles and wanting an answer for the only reason many users buy anything on GOG.
