Honestly, when you have to start propping up substitutes because GOG's selection is lacking, that's kind of concerning.

Kind of like getting pancakes when you wanted a waffle. Just not the same.

But when you disagree to the core with everyone that sells waffles, sometimes pancakes are pretty damned good.

To put things into perspective, let's put this into more acceptable wording, first... I am searching for viable ways to never again throw a single dime towards the way of traitors who betrayed my trust of the past (Blizzard, Rockstar), or stingy bastards who prefer to let their own franchises rot and die, instead of allowing gog to distribute (EA etc). While wanting to support gog at the same time, too. What is concerning in any of that reasoning?

Yeah, but sometimes you might end up enjoying pancakes much more than that overrated waffle you were craving, before!

It's concerning (to me) that GOG still seemingly has trouble keeping big publishers' attentions. But the thread idea is at least interesting.

I don't think they're loosing publishers attention, more publishers are not open to releasing more of their catalogue.

It would make sense with their new games (updating here...) but if it's a game that's receiving no further treatment that they can simply plop here after(or not) removing its DRM, then that's another story. GOG also doesn't release more than 2, maybe 3 games at a time so who knows whether or not some games are on their massive backlog due to total opacity.

Your mistake here is applying logic.

To be honest they still think they will loose money

Relevant. Releasing a game on GOG may actually cost the parties money.

Nah, my mistake is not knowing EVERYTHING before making a comment. I mean that light-heartedly, though.

Thanks for knowing things for me. :3

A good game! A pity that owners of the other games in this universe are not owning the rights of this
Or did they just forget about?
Cause as a small gift to easen the pain: The Earthsiege/Tribes games with the hercs are free now at http://www.tribesuniverse.com/
PS: as i checked cyberstorm there was also a successor of cyberstorm, i never heard of it - was it also worthwhile?

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Obviously.

No idea about the rights situation. Thanks for the link, I didn't know those games were for free now, great find. Earth Siege 2 is probably the best one from that list. It was the absolute upper end of what I could run on my 486. Mech Warrior 2 is pretty cool too, some fans are particular to one or the other but they're both great games. The closest thing to those classics we have here on GOG is the recently re-released [url=http://Terra Nova: Strike Force Centauri ]Terra Nova: Strike Force Centauri [/url], only remember playing the demo so I don't know if the game is good but it appears to be quite well liked among those who know the game.

As for CyberStorm 2: Corporate Wars, I never played that one and from what I heard it's not as good as the first game.
MissionForce: Cyberstorm is a cult classic and generally well liked but has sunken into obscurity. It has a 16bit installer so you can't install the game on a 64bit OS. On a 32bit OS it supposedly works as a 32bit OS can handle 16bit Windows installers but a 64bit OS can only handle 32bit. Unfortunately, I have Win 7 64bit Home Premium which doesn't have XP mode, and I'm not even sure if XP mode works, at all. The only way to get this game to run seems to be a virtual Win 98 partition and if I'm desperate enough I'll just have to set that up myself but I'm hoping that GOG will come to the rescue and save lazy aging people from having to deal with PC systems from begone ages. I'm so lazy that I don't even use a Dosbox front end but mount the CD drive manually every time I play a game that requires you having the CD files somewhere on your HD or wherever. It would be much easier to just configure this once in a front end shell but laziness is a strange beast, making you do illogically strange things.

Van Helsing series.
