Yes, he went a bit Walter White looking for a while.

hedwards: IMHO, it's rather unfortunate that Tinybuild is apparently outright refusing to support the games here with materials they're already producing, but I fail to see why GOG should have to cover the cost of providing all those refunds.
To keep buyers like Old Fart happy. You don't see that?

You forgot adding achievments(even to games which they wouldn't make sense to be added to) to every game ever for Red Dragon and others who seems to think achievments/trophies are the best things about games. ;)

Yeah well important patches / useless achievements...no I did not forget.

And here I thought it had something to do with the Illuminatti and the woman from the syrup bottle.

Because I assume people are buying games here with the quite reasonable expectation of continued support and eventual feature parity with more popular DRMed platforms.

He fails to see that!
To be fair, they have promised to address it. For whatever reason, be it backlash or because they actually care, they're trying to fix it presently.

Ummmm. five years ago they told me they were addressing rep and that it would be gone in six months. XD

Tinybuild, not GOG. Tinybuild is addressing it.

This is good and to be expected but that doesn't mean GOG should foot the bill for Tinybuild's faux paux.

OldFatGuy: snip.
tinyBuild is one of the most moronic indie publishers out there, this isn't the first time they've been spouting off stupid shit like this. They're a bad publisher that publishes mediocre games, then blames piracy when they sell poorly. I boycotted them years ago.

GOG really does need to toughen up when it comes to dealing with garbage publishers like tinyBuild and implement some kind of official policy on how to handle games that don't receive the same support as other platforms. Dealing with this issue is much more important to their future than Galaxy 2.0 imo.

Users shouldn't have to research who actually keeps their games up to date on a platform before making a purchase.

Sadly though the site might have a bit in their contract about not negatively talking about any devs that have signed up, and that might included saying or hinting that a dev might not be totally trustworthy. I am not saying I know this to be the case here but it can be for some legal contracts.

I'm sure there are legal issues preventing them from dealing with it for games they are currently selling, but they need to address this in future contracts.

They've been hemorrhaging customers for years due to slow patching or complete lack of support from certain publishers. I'm no business man, but I can't believe that the sale of a few tinyBuild games is worth losing any customer over, especially loyal and long time customers like OFG.
