Immoli: Cracking a game doesn't make it DRM-free.
Yes... it does. And that's not cracking.

JogsterXL: How to back up DRM-Free GamersGate Games:

snip
Worked beautifully. I was actually able to copy the temp folder before killing either the downloader or the installer, but the steps you posted are safer because they ensure the files are less likely to be locked. Got my truly DRM-free copy of Nikopol now, and it's on to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky.

Thanks again all!

Immoli: Cracking a game doesn't make it DRM-free.
This is in no way cracking any game to make it DRM-free. This is simply a step by step list explaining how to be able to make a backup of already DRM-free GamersGate games, so that you will not have to redownload in the future.

Credits to SirPrimalform, as I did a direct copy/paste of what his instructions here.

Spot on, Skunk, you've got it right. As does JogsterXL.

amok: Shiny Loot as now got some Nordic games, and are celebrating with a -75% sale on them

http://www.shinyloot.com/nordic-games-sale

This includes DRM free version of Gothic 4: Arcania, not sure if it is sold DRM free elsewhere?

reaver894: some nice prices there, but still £5 for Arcania gothic 4 is a fucking rip off,
I think it's all USD?

Regional pricing maybe? Might actually grab Arcania if it's DRM-Free.

So, if Arcania is being sold DRM-Free now, does that mean a future GOG release is likely?

Just wanted to point out that Barrow Hill is 60% off at GamersGate today. If you like slow, atmospheric horror point-and-clicks like the Dark Fall games, this should be up your alley - it's a personal favourite of mine. Not sure what the "other DRM" is, though I suspect it's an activation key.

Alpha Protocol is DRM-free, and it is not on GOG. GOG does not have a monopoly on drm-free releases, even *gasp* steam has some

wrong how? Steam is a distribution platform. It can also work as a DRM layer, but it carries games that are DRM-free.
Alpha Protocol, for one.
Binding of Isaac as well, can be run without Steam. Dungeons of Dredmor is also runnable without steam.
