BlackMageJ: Wait, does that mean Gat Out of Hell is a buggy mess (on PC), or just the SRIV remastering?
No just the SR4 Re-elected version
stg83: I haven't seen any mentions of Gat Out of Hell being buggy on PC, Saints Row IV: Re-elected the so called "Remastered" version is only available on consoles.
darthspudius: If it is anything like Saints 3 and 4, it will play perfectly fine. They're well made.
This was part of the point made, even though the original was fine, that's doesn't mean the remastered one is.
wpegg: Might be worth you saying sorry to GOG (they do sometimes read these threads). You were basically saying that they were releasing a game that was not ready (something they have defended as a reason they aren't releasing games as fast as we would like).
It would be polite.
No I never once said anything about GOG's or any other specific release, I just reported the fact that a Buggy Remaster was imminent, so was GF, waiting until release and making sure is advice I'd always give, without any specific warning, because as I said in the post you quoted, Pre-orders culture leads to buggy games.
The buggy release wouldn't have been GOG's doing even if it was GF, this isn't a GOG altered release, it's a publisher made release that GOG is just selling.
So because I never said, "Don't buy this game, I know it's shit", but just don't pre-order it, theres a non specific warning that might be GF. I don't need to apologise to GOG at all.
I will give the same Don't Pre-order any new game release warning, if you do knowing that encourages buggy releases, don't complain after the fact.
The publisher has already got your money, even though GOG may refund your money, they may not get it back from the publisher.
So even on GOG don't Pre-order, though because GOG are owned by CDProjekt Red, their games may be an exception, but only if bought from GOG, even so don't complain if it's no good, I won't.
