Apparently, Assassin's Creed and both Far Cry games have just had cloud-saving added through Galaxy. Which is kinda funny, considering that for all these years, these games never received any sort of attention on GOG. And most of the other old Ubisoft titles (like Splinter Cell or the Prince series) remain unchanged.

This is just wishful thinking, of course, but I wonder if that's a sign of more games from the AC or FC series coming here?

I don't think any involvement from Ubisoft is necessary to enable cloud saves, so I doubt it.

You're probably right.
Still it's funny why they only choose these games when they could also as well have made it available for the "Anno", "Settlers" , "Rayman" or "PoP" games. Maybe they'll update them next?

edit:
My only personal reasoning for them to make such a move would be that - in case they launched more games from the series - such games would be required to have could-saving. And it'd be a bit strange for a Far Cry 3 or an AC2 to have cloud saves and the previous games not.
But, WinterSnowfall is likely right and it's all just daydreaming.

I've said many time that I think Ubisoft abandoned GOG. Since their games started being bound to Uplay, that reinforced my conviction. Also, there are still games that don't require Uplay, like Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, and for some reason never made it here.

The someone pointed out to me that the Brothers in Arms series were released on GOG in the beginning of 2019. However, iirc, a few months later, it was announced that Ubisoft entered a long-term deal with Epic, and so they started selling their games only through Uplay and EGS. No more Steam, nor 3rd party key sellers (not counting Stadia). One can argue that that only applies to newer games, but maybe that was a clause that prohibits Ubi from putting games elsewhere. If that's the case, then only after that deal expires we'll know.
Classic turn-based tactical RPG Lost Eidolons could appear on GoG, "depending on the demand".

Obviously it also would have to run the curation gauntlet, but considering the production value on this I can't imagine GoG passing up if Ocean Drive Studio, the Korean developers behind Lost Eidolons were to submit it for final release.

Kickstarter Team Promotion

Anyway - in the FAQ section on the crowdfunding page it now says:
Will you support gaming stores other than the other platform?
For Early Access, we will be only on the other platform, but depending on the demand we can consider other stores such as GoG.

With SUPER.COM already on board (Broken Lines, Raji: An Ancient Epic) we possibly, maybe might see stealth real-time tactics possessor Wonhon: A Vengeful Spirit on GoG, when it releases on the 8th of June?

Curve Digital, despite a limited oeuvre on GoG (2018's For The King being the latest addition) maybe could return with
Just Die Already (releases on Thursday, Wishlist entry) or
The Ascent (scheduled for release on the 29th of July, Wishlist entry)?
If a game has a GOG support page, is it vaguely confirmed?

I'd call that unofficially confirmed.

Still looking for their For the King dlc Lost Civilizations. Released a few months back on a few platforms but not on PS4 or GOG.

It actually looks like Curve Digital has completely abandoned GOG, at least one game completely removed from GOG, no new games in years, missing DLCs, no discounts of their games in recent times.
The Smurfs: Mission Vileaf will be released on 25th October:

No mention of GOG, but since it's handled by the same team as the Asterix & Obelix XXL series, a day-1 release is pretty likely.

Reading this gave me a flashback to Castle Smurfenstein on the Apple II.

This is likely not going to be released here, considering the recent delisting of the game.
