Hi,
The main reason I started using GOG was because a lot of my old games ended up in an attic full of moist (they still work, that attic just happens to be quite a distance away), and that I also acquired a computer without a disc-tray.
GOG has continued to offer me great games in cool bundle packs, with awesome options such as downloading the sound-track of my favorite games separately and offering people the chance to get games at a fair price that are just impossible to find these days.
Neverwinter Nights is not one of those games, you can pretty much get it everywhere, but there's like a hundred CD's and the CD-keys are a mess, so I figured... Yeah, what ever, I'm just gonna pay a few bucks and get a bundle.
I'll admit, I had an another ulterior motive when I did this.
Some time ago, I had actually just ordered NWN2 for my old stationary PC back in the days when NWN2 was... Admittedly still a fairly old game by then... I uh, got around to playing it a bit late. But mysteries of Westgate hadn't come out yet! So I wasn't THAT late. Anyway, I was ordering NWN2, and I found some DLC I didn't have for NWN1.
I always hated the shit out of the NWN1 DLC and I kinda think the main campaign sucked a bit too. It was okay, just not really everything it could have been, compared to games like Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale (which actually had a fairly generic story, so that goes to say a lot!).
Anyway, the DLC I found was available online ONLY. I remember there was at least ONE extra premium module, and it was "Wyvern Crown of Cormyr", and despite having legally purchased it, it's utterly impossible to get it from the bioware site anymore, no matter how much I click around.
Wyvern Crown of Cormyr was, if you ask me, by far the best thing about neverwinter nights, maybe apart from several of the pretty cool multiplayer servers that ran (anyone remember Genesis? Or that one actually set in cormyr? Or that one set in waterdeep that was really fucking large?)
When I say NWN on here, I figured... GOG would NEVER sell a game without ALL the available extras... Shockingly, I was wrong. When I opened my NWN game up, no Wyvern Crown.
Of course, I inquired about it, and after hours of frustrations, I decided to just download the DLC illegally, because fuck it, if no one is going to sell it to me, I'll just take it. Turns out it was actually pretty hard to find even on the internet! Now for legal reasons, let's just skip over whether or not I was successful or not...
Anyway, several.... Years? Later I decided to ask if GOG had taken me up on my suggestion of possibly adding this awesome DLC to the NWN pack, because... Seriously, Bioware could have added voice-acting and more cut scenes to that DLC and sold it separately...
