Thank you Paradox and GOG!


Also thanks for the 2 free DLCs: https://www.gog.com/game/stellaris_horizon_signal and https://www.gog.com/game/stellaris_anniversary_portraits

Never too rotten too shout.

So, this time I take a deep bow and say thank you.

Thank you.

Do we - who were mistakenly given Stellaris for free - get to keep the game?

I mean, I wouldn't mind loosing it, since it was a mistake, but would rather not.

GoG connect says there are NO games currently running right now to look for (completly empty)

Usually it shows a list of games there - Owned, Not Owned and Available to add but its totally empty of anything where listed games should be.

Well this sucks. I own the game on Steam, and Connect said I didn't own it. Was going to submit a support ticket, but it looks like that doesn't matter now. Hopefully it comes back before the end of the sale.

look above at the user post of "emter_pl": "[...] we had to remove GoG Connect for Stellaris."

That´s the reason.

Fair play GoG!

For shame on the exploiters wanting to keep something for nothing!

You are using plural form, but so far I only see one user who woukld want to keep it and some others who said they want it removed even before blue post.

I'm in the same situation. I bought the game at release, and I already owned a couple of the DLC when it released on GOG. If it had been put it on connect sooner, I wouldn't have minded re-buying the two DLC I had and continued to buy new DLC here. I waited and waited and it never came. Then there was a sale on DLC for the Steam version that was too good to pass up, so I'm kind of stuck there now. I have all the DLC except this new one.

Still, It'll be nice to have the base game here (if it gets put back on connect because I was unable to get it before it was removed). I'll definitely pick up the DLC again when the game is finished (if a Paradox strategy game is ever "finished"), I'll grab all the DLC again.

I was hoping the DLCs would also carry over from my Steam account. But, oh well.

+1, I like your attitude.
Well, me too, but DLC is how they'll make money -- they have to make money one way or another.

(I'm just talking about normal reasonable DLC here, please don't anyone start a rant about unreasonable DLC; that's a different topic.)

Thanks man. I like free games as much as the next guy, but getting it from an exploit feels wrong. I'm also a bit of a GOG fanboy and really don't want to see this incident biting them in the ass. I can just buy the game if I want it.

Hopefully they get the connect issue sorted out soon. I'd like the game on gog rather than Steam which I hardly ever log into these days.
