Huniepop, sure, there is a market for that. So, a logical enough entry

But Lula, especially that one, is a crap game. One of the crappiest game one can imagine. As a "mature" game, it's desperately lacking any maturity, as a business simulator it's beyond stupidity and the novelty of showing big boobs and exploring sexually suggestive themes and actions is long gone. As a joke maybe? But I'd have more fun gifting Aurora ( that is a very competent of graphically unattractive and overcomplex game) or an old copy of DBASE III than that.

Hej both,

Wargaming is not the only genre (or sub genre) which GOG kind of ignores, for a harsh way of phrasing it. It is the most visible to me, together with flight sims, given how prevalent those two genres were in the early nineties which seem to be the golden age GOG focused on. I don't think this is all about bias to other genres, there are specific accessibility aspects I suspect.

Anyway, market is indeed the largest aspect. And the kind of god game / business sim is one of the main legs of Strategy on GOG. It sells very well, as can be seen by the sorted list. There aren't that many of those though, if you consider how many 4X or RTS there were in comparison, so it follows that eventually one starts scrapping the bottom fo the barrel so to speak. That said, I never played Lula, likely never will and just its thematic irreverence can by itself merit inclusion - depending on your values of course - given what we know of GOG culture.

It did have over 800 combined votes, just fyi - http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games#search=lula - so while I am biased towards the wishlist, I do think that was a factor in their reasoning.

Course, Dex has the same amount and that was rejected ... -_-

Thanks for the info.

Now that's kinda funny; Longbow games do not offer a non-Steam vresion on their own website, and Humble Store does ...

Hegemony Rome can't be purchased DRM-free anymore. :'-(

But Hegemony Gold and Hegemony III and its expansion can be purchased DRM-free on Humble.

And there are fee Kalypso-published games released lately...

gog... *wink* *wink*

A little reminder, the Hegemony games which are available DRM-free, so Hegemony Gold, Hegemony III and its DLC are currently on sale on Humble (Hegemony Rome and its DLCs aren't).

I am tempted to buy there, but rest assured that if they come here, if..., well I will buy here en gog for sure.

A word of warning: I purchased Hegemony 3 on humble in 2016 and the drm free build was horribly outdated at that time. So I ended up asking for a refund.

I don't know how the situation is now but it might be good to take into consideration.

Ah ok! Thanks for the warning, I'll be more cautious.
But I suppose it should be more up to date now, since the DLC has been release early 2017, and I believe Longbow games are focusing their development on their next game, Golem, an action platformer.

So I finally bought Hegemony III and its DLC, and the DRM-free build is still at 3.3.3, while the current Steam build is at 3.3.5.
Seems to be like the usual stance we already have here on gog, though...

And Hegemony III crashes with Wine on Linux at startup, because of the UTF-8 parser bug.

Tiresome.

I guess, I have learned my lesson now.
