You're blowing it completely out of proportion. Yesterday alone seven new games were released on GOG.

Still sad to see another game leave the shop.

We're still seeing games delisted more frequently than in the past. Hyperbole or no that fact is still somewhat concerning. Including two of the Bendy games, which got buried in a sale thread while this gets it's own thread :\

The Bendy games have been added to the highlight rotation on the main page, but I do agree they should have received there own individual release announcement and thread.

Decay of Logos? Certainly is, I don't recognize it. Never heard of it, reviews are scathing, good job curators.

I've seen so many of these delisting threads in the recent few months to make me gag.

It's always sad to see a game disappear from the store. But personally, I thank GOG for warning in advance (Steam doesn't do it).
By the way, I guess it's rarely GOG's will to remove a game from his store, but as often, the publisher's will.

The funny(sad) thing is, the Bendy games got buried in a sale thread even after people complained about the YS release.

- Exactly, game after game is dropping off the store as of late. Heck, we even had TWENTY SEVEN games delisted in one go.

- Gog needs to negotiate some of them (afaik permanent, like with Duke Nukem) contracts like Zoom sometimes does.

The more titles and, more importantly, rightsholders in the catalog, the more likely that some will get pulled... Highly doubt that anyone without the history and connections in the industry of ZP's founders could get anything of the sort, and now that publishers got burned with them I highly doubt even they could do it again, much less others. And you see that ZP got delistings as well more recently, including all of a publishers games.

That's too bad! It was in my wishlist for long (I guess mostly because of its visuals) but, although it was often discounted, I wasn't deciding on buying it. I wasn't disheartened due to its low ratings, no, it's just that I'm not very good (or patient) in souls-like games.

Judging from the reviews, this isn't a big loss.

Here's hoping we don't see a more beloved game/series taken out back to view the rabbits in the near future.

Do they even commonly announce delistings like this when it happens on Zoom Platform? Would you even know a game is gone from there if they didn't?

Also, GOG has about an order of magnitude more titles than ZP seems to (I counted through the [stupid dynamic-loading, infinite-scroll] alphabetical full catalogue listing over there until I got to about 500, and I was already in the "M"s), and probably several times more partners that they contract with for games than does Zoom Platform. Almost by definition, GOG's going to have more contract expiration situations to deal with. Kind of like how a country with a population of 1,000,000,000 is going to have a lot more deaths than a country with a population of 1,000,000. Proportion matters more than absolute numbers. (And in both deaths and delistings, cause and other details matter a great deal, too. Unfortunately, we often can't know the reasons for the delistings, so determining the significance of most is next to impossible from the outside looking in.)
As far as I'm concerned, it'll only be worth getting alarmed if the proportion of games currently on GOG starts to drop precipitously, or if they start losing all titles from multiple major, long-term partners like THQ Nordic, Bethesda, Activision, etc.
