Deleting cookies meant I was logged out, and then can't log back in, since it won't load more than one page. Didn't go as far as the different account idea...

PS: Oh, wait, how would I make a new account anyway, if I can't load more than one page. And since it happens when signed off, why'd it matter?

wow, a real mess! I hope they can solve it for you.
As for me, the only games I tried I got for free there ended up having English only, and I bought them on GOG for the German anyway. There's something cute sometimes but I have too much other stuff I prioritize over.

Doesn't seem like they care, with the lack of any further reply.

Got Ascension to the Throne, BorderZone, The Purring Quest and To Ash from there, played the first. Might have grabbed Earth Muncher last month if I could have, but probably better than I didn't, doubt I'd have actually cared for it.
Don't want non-English anything, so no issues for me there (on a different note, really pisses me off when some sites that have a Romanian version insist on switching me to it when detecting the location even if I selected the English one before and allow cookies or even am signed in, stopped using at least one entirely because of it).

Yes, I hate that, like when I buy for the German or Japanese or else and they force Italian or English. There's worse, some clients force the game language to the client language, at least with GOG we don't have that. I found a work-around that tricks games forcing them to run in the wanted language without having to change the system language every time (Locale Emulator). Windows XP had AppLocale but it doesn't work in W10 anymore. Pfff!
I had bought Doodle God RM free for Android on Humble, so I doubt I'll play it again on Windows (it's better as a smarphone game really). The Purrying Quest is very cute! I'm installing it, let's see!
All this waiting for a sports game? This one I'm not even reclaiming. Rather, I'd like to replay good old Streeet Hoop.

Maybe their well is running dry, which is why it was a mystery game. All they could finally line up at the last minute was a sports game. Note that next week is mystery too, suggesting it's getting harder for them to make deals early enough to announce.

It's a lootboxes paytowin microtransaction gambling system with a basket minigame skin nobody cares for with mostly negative reviews on Steam for being worse and buggy and considered even a downgrade from the NBA 2K20. The game price is just the entry ticket for new "whales" to be scammed, and the mistery strategy is just a way to generate interest for a game with a low Metascore, that still is a huge money maker due to its addictive gambling mechanics IMHO.
EPIC has a lot of Fortnite money to invest on the EGS and the determination to do so, and there's plenty of older AAA, and fresh "AA"/indie titles they can afford to give away. I don't think they would have a problem offering any game that it's not strictly an exclusive from the competition.
Heh, this latest one is another case of an Indiegala freebie that I'd have likely grabbed if I could have, but probably good thing I can't since it'd have likely just ended up taking space... Still, seems interesting, and quite a feat to squeeze so much out of RPG Maker.

I already had it I think, it should have been given away in the past and multiple times possibly, and it possibly will come back.

Among Us on Epic: I made a few games with some people on Discord (while chatting and all) and didn't have much fun. Just do chores and random blaming people and arguing about it. Not for me.

Fanatical's bundle has:

Battlestar Galactica Deadlock
Blacksad: Under the Skin
Out of Space
Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition
Railway Empire
Tower of Time
Undead Horde

I'm only interested in planescape and blacksad, and possibly undead horde. Has anyone seen these in bundles before? Since I'm in no rush to play them, any idea on how likely they are to be bundled again?

I was amazed to see Blacksad bundled so early, and with Planescape: T for that price. I don't think they were bundled before. As for the future, it's hard to tell but for sure it puts that 40 € tag in perspective. I'll wait for a massive price drop to get it on GOG, I wish we could get GOG keys too in bundles like these.

Not a giveaway, but thought it noteworthy enough to mention:

https://www.humblebundle.com/games/epic-games-store

Humble is doing a bundle of Epic games, which breaks their seemingly only-Steam track record. They also have a new format of selecting your price. The page claims it's raised 2K for charity, so... less popular than usual?

It looks like Epic is breaking into a previously onlySteam venue, something Gog never did.

What do you mean by this? I've gotten GOG codes from Humble Bundle before. There's even a section devote to it - https://support.humblebundle.com/hc/en-us/articles/360047622913-GOG-Direct-Redemption

Also Humble Bundle use to give out codes for Desura when it was still around. I still have my games from that too.

You could also get Nintendo and Playstation games from here at one point.
