Yes, the price was reduced here as well :) Check the game card :)
Nice :) I saw it now .
Not possible---waiting for that so long!
nice, thanks, but as "always" I have some small remark :D Kind of missing OST which was "hidden" in the game folder...

Ya, same here! I really liked that fight. I'm dissapointed it is easier now.

*WARNING (maybe?) TACTICS SPOILERS!!!*











Ya I enjoyed it too - I think it helped that early on I decided that my archers would focus on breaking armor (a pretty "static" stat) and that the two archers used in the fight were the ones I had been developing the most. Also, early on I LOVED and found very useful the whole idea of "Willpower" - so armor breaking archers with high willpower really helped me drop Bellower.

We didn't remove anything from the new version, just so you know :)

edit: In fact, we never remove files (unless they are related to DRM) from a game given to us by one of our partners :)

In previous version there was a folder named OST with soundtrack...
It was like this from the beginning:
http://www.gog.com/forum/general/release_the_banner_saga/post25
http://www.gog.com/forum/general/release_the_banner_saga?search=OST

Does it mean it was accidental and I should delete those files? I thought it was hidden bonus as a compensation for our patience during long days of waiting for late release :D
Or it is removed now because of price cut?

Do what you will within the limits of the law with the files you received in the previous installer since you did buy the game and all. All I know is that we don't mess with the DRM-free build by removing, altering, or reverse engineering any files. So if something is missing, it's not because of us :)
