leonardrhine: The "bonus content" is so weird now. Something like the Larry games, for example, the bonus content is the same for each one, and it doesn't matter if you are downloading just one of the games, the bonus content includes all of them xD

mrkgnao: Larry is nice, but the grand winner is Zork Anthology, with 13 unidentifiable bonuses (see attached image) duplicated 7 times. That's 91 superlative product_bonuses.
I know... i own Zork Anthology too :/
There's also the annoying bug that now, because the individual episodes aren't for sale, the link to the game's page doesn't exist. For example, I can't go from one episode in the Blackwell Bundle to the bundle page. This is annoying when you buy games on special offer or in bundles and then want to go back and try to remember what they were - you have to type the name of the game into the search field.

So, two feature requests:

1) For each unbundled game, provide a 'show as bundle' checkbox so that we can rebundle them on the shelf. I really don't want to see each episode of Cognition as a separate game.

2) Fix the links. The 'COGNITION EPISODE 1: THE HANGMAN' link should go to the Cognition page. I don't care that you can't buy it separately, this is a clear feature regression from the previous display mode.

If you *really* want to make life easier, then stop providing PDF manuals as .zip files and let us click on them and view them in the browser. I doubt that a few extra hundred KBs will cost you much when you're also serving multi-GB games...
So, we are now 7 weeks into the 2 week unbundling...

Seriously though, any idea how much longer this will take?

Argh. Why doesn't GOG just finish one thing at a time? That's the only way to get anything done right...

I think the unbundling was a step to prepare for the launch of the Galaxy client. I hope that the new account system will be ready in time for the launch of Witcher 3 (otherwise, I fear that we'll be getting lots of complaints).

I'm sure it was (is), I just wish they get it over with. I'm talking about fixing mistakes done during the unbundling and finishing the unbundling itself. That's something Galaxy and/or the new account system certainly won't solve. Like Monty Python would say: get on with it!
Magical Fallout 1 again that don't know if it exist or not...

The Account Pass secures your access to two epic adventures set in the vibrant world of GOG's account system.

Bugs of Stone will take you on an all-new 10-week adventure into the wilds of No Bundle’s Land and the nooks and alleys of Oithurts, where you’ll try to complete a simple operation such as arranging your shelf. Caught in a thick tangle of confusion, you will need all your cunning and strength to solve the mystery and emerge unscathed.

Bitch and Whine, a 20-week tale that will introduce the all-new in-website shelf of Tousfous, will take you to an account system untainted by bundles, where an atmosphere of carefree indulgence and daily ritual masks a bloody ancient mess.

The upcoming system will offer gamers new discontent, fear and woes, and will feature inconsistencies both new and dearly missed -- all crafted with maximum attention to detail and quality.

I hope they include the soundtrack. It's supposed to contain over two hours of the wailing of the damned.

I don't like this place called Oithurts. 'Tis a silly place. Let's not go there, GOG. ;)

Really? I thought it contained nothing more than chalkboard nail scratches.

That's the backbeat. If you turn up the bass you can also make out the rhythmic thump of GOG's forum staff beating their heads against their desks.
