@Kaigan Games:
Sorry, but this time I won't bite. When you brought Simulacra 2 here I (and several other GOGers) asked you to release Pipe Dreams on GOG since it is available on Steam and is a part of the Simulacra franchise. You posted here in this very forum confirming that you have decided to bring Pipe Dreams to GOG eventually (in the near future) but were unable to give an estimated arrival at this time ... however it was a promise you made.

I was so happy that I did not only purchase Simulacra 2 I also purchased Silmulacra as well which I already owned on Steam ... but I wanted to support such devs and of course DRM-Free. Months went and so after a while I decided to PM you on your discord and ask if there are any news:
Me:
"Hey, I have finished Simulacra 2 which I bought on GOG and enjoyed it a lot. Now of course I am really looking forward to get Pipe Dreams on GOG as well :)
I know that you said that you don't have any ETA when this will happen but since two months have past after your statement I'd like to ask if you have discussed this in the meantime and maybe even have a plan now?"
Kaigan:
"Hi Marko, thanks for reaching out.
Yeah, we have discussed and we will be bringing pipedreams to GOG. However for now we are focused on the new Dr.Who game and SIM3.
So most probably we would only do the implementation after completing the Dr.Who game which should be before the end of the year."
This was in 06/2020 Even more months went by and in
02/2021 I tried it again:
Me
"Hello again
I just read about the SIM2 giveaway and that reminded me that I wanted to ask you of you have any news regarding the ETA of Pipe Dreams on GOG."
Kaigan
"Hi there, yes its still in the works. But as I said, we are focused on wrapping up Dr.Who now and we are in the midst of SIM3 as well. So its gonna take some time before we look at bringing pipedreams to GOG."
Me
"Ah okay, I just asked again because the last information I had was an estimated release near the end of 2020. Just wanted to make sure that it is not forgotten. Looking forward to SIM3 on GOG as well :slight_smile:"
Then they released Dr. Who on other platforms (of course it was no day 1 release on GOG) and after that I tried it again. It was the beginning of this month
06/2021:
"Hello once again.
Dr. Who has been released and I am aware that you are already working on SIM3. Do you also have news regarding the timeframe when you might add Pipe Dreams to GOG? See, I was disappointed after buying SIM1 on GOG that pipe dreams wasn't released there. Then SIM2 came and I wanted to buy it but there still was this issue with pipe dreams not being released there. After it has been confirmed that it will come evetually to GOG I decided to buy SIM2 as well. It would be great if pipe dreamns was added to GOG before SIM3 will be released - it would make my decision to buy SIM3 as well so much easier. I really don't want to push you at all (although I am quite sure that it probably feels this way to you) - I am just a big fan of the SIM games and would love to own them all on GOG which is my favorite platform.
Stay safe and sorry for the wall of text (I just wanted to explain myself a bit)."
No reply at all ... and now another Kaigan Games release here on GOG that expects me to buy. I already gave additional money to Kagain because I trusted them. Now it is A YEAR AND THREE MONTHS later and instead of Pipe Dreams they ask me for money for another game. Sorry - this time I will wait until you stayed true to your promise and brought Pipe Dreams here before spending any more money.
