Do we know why they did "rollbacks" here? They are quite a few from what I can tell.

Even in cases when no "rollback" happened, I get mismatched size or checksum with the updated installer. (eg. for Riven)

For a game to qualify, our team must run it through many quality tests. If these tests fail, our team updates and improves the game until it matches our quality standards. Only then will we stamp the game with our Preservation Program and commit to its maintenance. There is a long backlog of games currently being evaluated. We want hundreds of games to be stamped by the end of 2025.

(ø,ø): It's a good thing that GOG is taking the time to ensure that a game is preserved for another generation. I'd say it's a bit more than "GOG pats itself on the back".
I've read reviews of several games on Steam from people who bought games there and they don't even work anymore. What's worse is that Steam doesn't even care that a lot of the games they sell are broken.
I agree that they shouldn't have made update flags if there's nothing new added though.
I wouldn't bother replying to him. He literally negative about everything GOG.

Unexplored 2: The Wayfarer's Legacy

Updated to 1.7.18

Changelog from SteamDB:

Patch 1.7.18 adds Edge Dungeons to imperial sites that safeguards treasure

This week we have been working on new ‘Edge Dungeons’. Small sites in the dark magic realm of ‘The Edge’ that can be accessed from imperial controlled settlements and some imperial camps. This is where the Empire keeps their treasure, and where you might want to go to liberate that treasure.

Gameplay Changes:

• Changing the population of the imperial capital.
• Adds an ‘edge dungeon’ to imperial controlled settlements that allow you to raid them for dark sigils and well-made items.
• Adds a smaller ‘edge dungeon’ to camps inside the Empire that also allow you to raid them for some ‘dark’ treasure.

Bug Fixes:
• Sky Portals are generated more consistently.
• New worlds cannot generate a site where there needs to be a Sky Portal and a Scrying Device.
• Lingering quest information no longer prevents you from committing to a quest with a clan leader.

MarkoH01: Apparently you have the changelogs for those preservation "updates" on the gamepage now. In most cases the changelog says:

"Validated stability
Verified compatibility with Windows 10 and 11
Verified Cloud Saves support"

So not a true update at all - just a sign of approval. Why they had to make this an update flag beats me.
The installer changed, I believe that's the only reason.
I agree, those changelogs contain a checklist of what is probably a rough standard they are now giving themself. But as you said, in most cases they are just signs of approval.

I hope they would be more consistent with changelogs from now on, but I'll try not to get my hopes up.

No idea. It might just be a mistake on their side.
I just started the Riven installer. No problem with the file integrity check before the installation process.

Knights of the Chalice 2

Updated to 1.79 for Windows and Mac.

Changelog from SteamDB:

Knights of the Chalice 2 Version 1.79

Hello everyone! Version 1.79 of Knights of the Chalice 2 has arrived.

It adds new isometric sprites for Giant Crabs and Giant Snakes, fixes a source of crashes on loading, and updates the Spells.sml file required for Ground Death Throes.

• Added the updated Spells.sml file required for the new Ground Death Throes special ability of monsters. I forgot to include it in update 1.78. My sincere apologies!! Please see the previous patch notes for details.
• Fixed a source of crashes upon loading a saved game in a map with large creatures. It could happen especially after having used the Module Editor.
• Added new large-size sprites for Giant Snakes and Giant Crabs. I created three colour variations for Giant Snakes and two for Giant Crabs.
• Added new tokens for Giant Crabs based on the new sprites, as well as a couple of Fire Snake tokens (the huge and gargantuan versions).
• Updated the modules Augury of Chaos and Tutorial to make use of the new sprites.
• Updated the engine so that summoning spells will make use of the new sprites.

Separately, I improved my sprite-creation script to facilitate isometric sprite creation from 3D models in the future.

Please don't hesitate to email me at enquiries@heroicfantasygames.com if you find any bugs and annoyances, so that I can fix the game quickly.

Thank You So Much, Stalwart Heroes of Destiny! Enjoy ^_^
