drmike: They weren;t long enough and they left too much out.

Insert that week of Foxtrot comics eons ago saying the same thing.

tinyE: Yeah, three hour wasn't nearly long enough, especially for a movie about people walking. You really can't cut corners on the length of a movie about people walking because that will only hurt the director's ultimate vision of people walking.
I remember when it ended thinking, the movie just didn't convey walking the way it needed to. It definitely needed at least another hour of people walking. Now of course, they tried to make that up with the DVD which had several deleted scenes of people walking, but still, it just wasn't quite enough. :D
I'm just waiting for the director's cut of 127 Hours...that way one can get the full experience...

Ophelium: Clerks II sums up the LOTR trilogy...with some NSFW language of course.

Anyway, this was supposed to be about the worst games on GOG, I think. Let's just go with Stardew Valley. Yep.
See, my point exactly. I loved Stardew Valley. :P

You know that I just picked Stardew Valley arbitrarily, right? :P

drmike: I was going to suggest that as well but considering the current database issues.....
Sucks to be you nerd, I get the glory of posting this link. :P
Dead State: Reanimated

Redone and still broken, woeful game.

seppelfred: It's a good adventure game. Stop the hate, it's stupid. Jack Keane 2 is not so good, but still far from "the worst" on GOG.
I've played the first one and concur, not the best adventure game I've played but it was good fun. Besides, JK2 was the one that held up the Insomnia sale.
Well, from a perspective of the literal, it would appear Bubsy, Empire Earth III, Pixel Piracy, and MOO3 are kings of the crap pile.
I haven't played it, yet, but from what I've heard about it, Gothic 3: Forsaken Gods comes pretty close. I am still recovering from the main Gothic 3 game (which had a lot of good things in it, but also some really bad stuff), and Forsaken Gods was not even made by the original Gothic developers.

Just to prove tinyE's point:

avatar
Ophelium: There have been a few games that are technically borked on this site or just made pretty poorly (99 Levels to Hell). Maybe that can be a criteria?
What is wrong with that game? I recall playing it shortly after purchase (which is quite uncommon for me, usually I just put games at the back of the backlog), and it felt somewhat interesting and ok'ish. Still, I decided "maybe later".

So because my short testing of the game didn't reveal it, what did I miss?

EDIT: I read some of the reviews on the gamecard, and I just got a general feeling of "it's ok'ish, but nothing special, boring even....". Is that enough to make it the worst game on GOG?

i understood the GOG version of Forsaken Gods is supposed to include some originally fan-made mod that makes it more bearable? I've played the game only shortly, to test it out...

That's true, but from what I know it makes a buggy, bad game just a bad one. ;)

nightcraw1er.488: Online only. Galaxy forced. Could be the greatest game ever invented, but you don't get past that fundamental point. It is the first fully drm/online only game on a drm free site.
avatar
Lucumo: It's a multiplayer game that isn't exactly LAN-friendly, so of course it's online only. As for Galaxy...many people probably prefer it to a direct IP connection because most of them wouldn't even be able to find their own. I'm all for DRM-free (to the point I avoid all Steam games since the platform is itself DRM) but one still has to be reasonable.
It's a <insert excuse here>, has already been done to death. It is perfectly reasonable to expect a store whose sole selling point is drm free, to follow its own guidance, and online only is far worse than drm (which can be removed).
Steam platform is not drm, ceg is the steam drm. If your fine using a client and/or online only then there is not point whatsoever buying here, unless you like fewer choice, higher prices, less/slower updates, and incomplete products.
But it doesn't matter, it's here now, and that the end of it. All the other industry rubbish has come here over the time since galaxy release, and I expect cyberpunk to be mostly if not all online only, likely with denuvo, regional pricing, loot boxes, pre order exclusives, day 1 dlc etc. All the crap we expect from a modern day steam clone, and there will be the queue of people telling me how great it is and that it was designed that way so it's fine.
For me it would have been reasonable to assume that if I was happy with that, I would have just brought on steam, not change every other store to be exact clones of it.
So yes galaxy and Gwent are the two biggest changes for the worse this store has done, plenty of other smaller changes, but these are real key milestones.
We can also see how this set a precedent, e.g. Absolver, with its "but it was designed that way", and "you can play the small offline demo part so it must be drm free" excuses which can be twisted to any product, take Ubisoft games, they are designed to integrate with uplay client, so that is fine. Simply put, no. I buy here for a full and complete working product which works with no internet connection or online account/activations, dodgy disc scrapping software or anything else. The other excuses, "it's free" - so are plenty of games on uplay and steam and others. "It will one day have a single player component" - and one day half life 3 and bannerlord will get finished.

Ophelium: I mean, somebody has to love Ultimate Body Blows.
Yup. I do.

My (possible) excuses are : I've never played the PC version (but I don't expect it to be very different), and Body Blows was one of the least awful streetfighter clones on the Amiga (yeah, they were more or less all even worse), and I never compared these games with the six-button coin-up originals. So, my standards and expectations are pretty low in that domain.
There are several games that are unplayable or nearly so without mods and/or fan patches.

Would you count KOTOR 2 as one of those?
