So, let's conclude. What made GOG a great store in the past seems to be only relevant for other peoples IP. For their own products, CDPR is ready to join "the dark side". What do we have now: - Microtransactions through the back-door. I do not want to use twitch and spend money there to have the full experience - Pre-order exclusive content - Never listen to your customers like Bioware with Mass Effect: If you keep demand a happy ending we spit in your face with a new even sader ending. Fuck you - we are artists, and we do not want to hear you. - A forced update (2.0) thats not everybodies taste, and no way to downgrade if you do not use our propriatary Client. Quite contrary to the original idea of GOG. - A completely uneccessary pre-launcher.
To begin with. A good game for me is a game where the story matters. I do not mind bugs, and I don't mind gameplay. Give me a walking simulator or basic gameplay with an overpowered character so I do not have to mind about gameplay too much and I am fine. But there is so much opportunities missed storywise. There are so many nice storylines and characters, but everything seems to be just cut after 80%. No conclusing, nothing. And finally, when do game developers finally learn, that it pisses of most players if you give the illusion of choice, when you then have a linear storyline with a sad ending. Nothing against bittersweet endings but the game all along is: You do missions, then everythings fails, everybody you do missions for leaves, dies, or the story simply ends abruptely. This game feels like a huge huge cliffhanger constisting of only cliffhanger stories. And when I hear the management proudly claiming the players will need years to find everything they have hidden in the game???? I want to play a game and be able to experience ist. Not watch hundreds of youtube videos to find all the hidden endings, secrets, etc and then replay with a walkthrough to see what I would never ever find with playing mayself....
On my iMac it plays all sounds on connected airplay devices, but not on the internal speaker. So all sound is with 3 seconds delay and there is no possibility to choose the speaker. (Airplay is not enabled as default sound output in OSX, just available)
