W3irdN3rd: No, the price only changed a few hours ago. And I am 100% certain I saw 75% off with 4 hours and something minutes on the clock.

If there is a deal that says the discount is reduced from 75% to 65% in the last few hours, that's totally fine.. But just be upfront about it! I was still pondering whether or not I would buy PoP and had actually decided to buy.. only to find the price was increased. Now the answer is clear for me: no.

I'm pretty sure Dragon's Lair Trilogy also went off sale early.

Panaias: I second that. Unless it is a bug on GOG's side, this should be communicated to users in a clear way. It's not a 24-hour-long super deal if the discount decreases over time, it is a the-sooner-you-grab-it-the-better kind of deal (and it would be acceptable if advertised as such). At least give a proper heads-up example:
-0 to 5 hours: super deal -> 90% off
-5 to 10 hours: good deal -> 70% off
-10 to 15 hours: ok deal -> 50% off
-15 to 20 hours: meh deal -> 30% off
i hope it is a 'bug' ٩◔‿◔۶ if its not ٩(×̯×)۶ ......ouch .. then it is not a real 24 hour - long - superdeal.
it should read : 24 hour - long - superdeal with decreasing % during the 24 hour deal.

Anyway if they want a quick grab deal then it should be like the deals they had in the past: deals expiring after 1 hour or so.

Leroux: Just noticed the new Edition drop down menus and overview tables (not sure when they were added). While they don't fix everything that made the website design confusing, they're definitely a step in the right direction. Thank you! :)
Those were there since the new game page design hit.

Whoops. Guess it wasn't all bad then. Tbh, I didn't pay much attention to it since it didn't look that great, but I didn't feel like wasting my energy on making a fuss about it ...

I think the pricing on the Prince of Persia games was a mistake, but because it was the weekend, they didn't notice until this morning.

66% off is the "normal" sale pricing for those games. Sands of Time went on sale during the Back to School sale for 75% off as a "Flash deal", but beyond that we haven't seen 75% off since Dec-2015 outside of bundles where you have to buy them all.

According to the homepage these deals will expire before January 3:

https://www.gog.com/partner/ws18_dosbox will expire in 2 days and 16 hours.

https://www.gog.com/partner/ws18_welovegames will expire in 6 days and 16 hours.

https://www.gog.com/partner/ws18_nofrag will expire in 6 days and 16 hours.

https://www.gog.com/partner/ws18_bonfire will expire in 6 days and 16 hours

https://www.gog.com/partner/ws18_seto will expire in 6 days and 16 hours

And these later:

https://www.gog.com/partner/ws18_bonjwa will expire in 37 days and 16 hours

The Witcher 3 is listed on both WeLoveGames and Bonjwa. So it may be on sale for only 6 more days, or 37. Or till January 3. Who knows? And there are several games listed that are not on sale. Breathedge, Mafia, Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition, STAR WARS™: Dark Forces, STAR WARS™ Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II, SOMA, the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, Quake 1, Quake 3, Doom, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition, What Remains of Edith Finch, Death's Gambit and FAR: Lone Sails.

Strange.

Yes, if you're willing to wait you can usually expect a lower price, surely this isn't anything new? And Lords of Xulima has been on GOG for about four years, so it's not like early adopters are being screwed over—at least not any more than usual.

RWarehall: On top of the Bioshock releases and new Daily Deals, Vaporum has been added to the sale at 50% off.
For those who live Grimrock and dungeon crawlers - do not miss the game! It's unique (steampunk setting!) and definitely worth the price.

I didn't. It wasn't a must have for me anyway. Though at 75% off I would have bought it.

A hint since Risen 3 is now a daily deal: do not buy Risen 2: Dark Waters Gold Edition!!! Not because it's bad or anything, but you should buy Risen 2: Dark Waters with the Risen 2: Dark Waters Gold Edition Upgrade instead. You'll save €4,41 for exactly the same game!

It is cheaper to buy these separate rather than the Deluxe Edition:

Lords of Xulima (80% off [$19.99]) - $3.99
Lords of Xulima Deluxe Edition Upgrade (70% off [$9.99]) - $2.99
Lords of Xulima Deluxe Edition (70% off [$29.99]) - $8.99

Separate - $6.98
Deluxe Edition - $8.99

Now which will I choose?

I'm not sure if anyone has noticed, but Bioshock is no longer available.

It's the same thing as what happened to Simon the Sorceror - redone, but the original no longer available as a standalone purchase.

The original Bioshock never was available at GOG. It was released today for the first time (Remastered version).

I was wondering if the Bioshock pricing will last the rest of the sale. Also, where is Minerva's Den for #2? I mean the Protector Trials are included.
