Privateer 2: The Darkening

Great game, terrible version from gog

This is a really cool game. However this version is not acceptable as a paid product. GOG says that this game is win 8 compatible, but it is not. -in game video look terrible, to the point that one can not see what is happening, and the video is important to the plot of the game. -when a planet, enemy ship, etc is on screen, frame rate drops drastically. THis makes the game unplayable. I contacted support, and they sent a list of 5 different things to do to get the game to work. The next day; so while the support was fairly quick I did have to wait after purchasing the game to even try to fix it. Honestly I don't want to have to trouble shoot the game. I paid for this and if it says that it works on windows 8 then it should just work without me needing to learn computer programming. I am not a beta tester, nor do I work for GOG so if I pay for something I should not have to spend any number of hours to get it working on my system. I just want to pay for a game and then play it. I really dont want to fudge around with my OS, and other highly technical things to get it to work. I hope they improve this for the future, I really want to play the game, but I want to PLAY it, not fudge around with my computer's software trying to get it to work.
