Telika: So.

When you buy a gold edition, you get the base game and the DLCs ticked as owned.

When you buy the base game and the DLCs, do you get the gold edition ticked as owned ?

Barry_Woodward: No.
I mean, if you buy the base game and its DLCs, or complete it, AFTER the gold edition even exists ?
Wow, a Gold version that combines a really badly rated (2 stars!, probably in the bottom ten of GOG) game and 4 DLCs plus another DLC. I really must have that ...

... not. :)

I'd expect not, that isn't how GOG works. I bought the Gold DLC of Sword of the starts the pit and the gold edition itself does not show as owned even though I own all the components that make it up separately. I bought after it existed as a purchasable option

Omerta is not a bad game. It's a decent little tactical TBS, with a good prohibition style and atmosphere. It only misleads people into expecting a mafia gamg management à la Gangsters, King of Chicago, Tropico or whatnot. Which it simply isn't.

Ah but here you are subject to everyone else's view. If everyone said don't go into the water it isn't safe (after they had gone into the water) do you believe them? It could be a private joke that everyone is rating this low just so you don't get it.

Pst Guys, I think it worked :)

Well it is a weird, and nonsensical, asymetry.

Judas, any chace of this being corrected ?

And I mean by default, not on demand (to customers service and all) ?

I only can tell about base game+ all DLCs - and don't have Gold marked as "owned"
It is similar to Age of Wonders 3 Deluxe and SoTS The Pit - Gold

bad reviews came from big expectations of overhyped people :D but game is quite good imho... which I can't tell about Kalypso as publisher - they really suck the bottom of cesspool of gaming industry:(

To clear it up:
I have the base game (including the DLCs) and the Japanese Incentive. These are 2 entries in the GOG catalog.
I don't have the Gold Edition marked as owned, this is an additional entry in the catalog.

The rating is seriously misleading. The game got a lot of bad ratings because it has DLC.
It also got some bad rating based upon the price which was $40 when released. Many, myself included, considered that too much for such a game.

It would be very welcome feature! (but I think we have to wait for new site version...)
Come on GOG! Call EA and release [url=http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/the_godfather_ii]Godfather games here!

Fortunately I didn't pay that price, but I did buy a couple of the DLC that then ended up becoming part of the base game package. I'm starting to get the feeling if there is DLC just wait for a Gold edition, as it never seems that long before there is a better bundled deal.

Yeap the game isn't as bad as the negative review scores indicate but I think it has more to do with the price on release and the terrible handling of the GOG version by, I assume, Kalypso than overhyping (although there was a misleading "second coming of Gangsters" vibe going before release).

I was going to post a thread with the bottom 50 selling games (excluding the freebies( all time on GOG earlier --- Omerta wasn't in the bottom 50 before this current release (which sticks it automatically at the bottom now....)) ;)

For the record this was the most balanced first impression/review of the game http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qnmtsh9Iuu0 (Totalbiscuit's - people would have seen this before)

If by Christmas they haven't released another DLC I'll probably pick it up in some sort of promo.
