Let us play older versions of the games we buy.

Thepickygamer Instead of only owning the most updated version of a game, i should have the option to play older versions if i want to. For example, if i purchase a game, and lets say it's currently version 1.3, there should be an option to download version 1.2, version 1.1, etc. and have a list of all of the changes made to each version.
notanotherone That would also solve issues with games like No Man's Sky where each release massively changes the gameplay and introduce another set of bugs.

jigglywiggly BG2EE brought me here. Please give download access to v1.3 (the last v1.x before shifting to the awful 2.x engine). Not only because the game and engine were far superior, but also for compatibility with previously supported OS's (like OS X 10.6.x), *according to the listed supported systems when we purchased the game*.
##@@##@@ @puresolarflame: Take this with a grain of salt, because it's been a while, but I'm pretty sure it's possible to just disable Tshock. As long as you're playing with friends, you shouldn't have to worry about cheat protection - unless you have rubbish friends. ;)
puresolarflame And another reference to previous versions for Terraria on GOG: <a href="http://forums.terraria.org/index.php?threads/does-the-terraria-update-if-i-bought-it-on-gog-com.4056/" class="light_un" target="_blank">http://forums.terraria.org/index.php?threads/does-the-terraria-update-if-i-bought-it-on-gog-com.4056/</a> <br /> <br /> In my case, my friends and I run Tshock (Terraria) servers, but Tshock has a hard time keeping up with Terraria releases, and consequently we have a hard time keeping client versions in sync with the latest versions of the servers. It would be nice to get access to previous versions of the client through GOG so we can always match the latest Tshock server versions.

SoanoS I think this might be achievable with offering the release version and all the standalone patches as an alternate download.
xieliming Another example is the complaints with BG2EE UI updates with 2.0. Yuck.
pyatak today i got shadowrun: hk extended edition for free - that is great! but what if i prefer original hk? i can't download it anymore!!! please, in case of such drastic changes make another game slot, so i still can get old release. otherwise i'll have to backup _every_ gog update and i don't have such resources...
Muthmtshn Terraria is another exaple of a game where this feature would be useful. I would greatly appreciate it.
pyatak YES! <br /> especially if upgrade contain more than minor bugfixes. <br /> example: <br /> FTL was upgraded to FTL: Advanced Edition and it's _different_ game <br /> with different balance, events, interface etc. <br /> i don't like FTL:AE at all...
DanyKing I see why this could be relevant, but probably it is not applicable to the majority of titles on GOG. I don't think GOG has any versions other than the latest available for games that have not been patched AFTER their GOG release.
