Deals so good, you won't want to fall asleep.
You remember back when you used to walk into a store, browse the shelves, pick out a game, and then buy it--all in the actual real world? We don't know about you, but most of us at GOG.com have had our limbs atrophy to small vestigial nubbins since all of our shopping happens online these days. Of course, one thing that sometimes happens in real world stores with real world goods--particularly when they have a good sale--is that they run out of stock. Usually that means that the deal was so good that they couldn't keep up with demand.

Well, in the digital realm, this is usually pretty rare. How do you run out of stock on digital games, short of entropy devouring the universe? Well, we have gotten 101 games that will be on sale on the front page of GOG.com, but the discounts are so high at the moment that we can't just sell an unlimited number of copies of these games: we are only able to sell a few at these discounts--up to 80% off--and once they're gone, they're gone.

So what games will be on sale in our Insomnia promo? Bestselling classics and new games alike. There will also occasionally be some free games in super limited numbers (like, 20 or 30 copies)--if you're fast enough on the trigger finger to pick 'em up, that is. The deal will run from now until we're out of "stock" of games for the sale, and games may show up more than once. So it's time to bathe in a tub of coffee*, dip some espresso**, snort an energy drink***, or do whatever else it takes to stay up so you don't miss out on the best deals on fantastic games on GOG.com since summer.
*This is probably not a good idea
**This is definitely not a good idea
***This is totally safe, though****
****NO IT'S NOT WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU CRAZY PERSON

I've been a GOG member since the days of beta. The community has pretty much been like this the entire time. That's one of the things about it that attracts new members.

GhostwriterDoF: Oh sure... blame it on the sale... :P

moonshineshadow: Of course I blame it on the sale, this damn ticking down numbers, glaring at the bar etc... the longer it takes the harder it becomes to resists :D
Well, when you put it like that... now I know why I'm still here waiting for a game that I don't really know if I want it... :D

nijuu: Any modules you can recommend?. I rememeber installing it off disk & getting partway through before my attention switched (happens a lot with games lol).
Been a long time since I played, but what jumps to mind offhand are:

Bonds of Blood
The Harper's Tale (I think that's the name)
Against the Cult of the Reptile God (there are a couple of these, but this was done by a Rick or Rich someone, and was a really good adaptation of the old AD&D module)
Darkness Over Daggerford (this was done by Ossian studios and was supposed to be a Premium module, but was cancelled. Ossian released it for free after getting permission from Atari. This one shouldn't be missed).
Tragedy in Tragidor (kind of a crappy name, but a good module)
The Aielund Saga (this one is great for multiplayer as well, but I had a blast in single player).

Coelocanth: That still leaves a lot of chapters to go downhill. It's definitely a mediocre campaign, but I personally didn't mind it (hell, I've played through it 4 or 5 times). But some of the community made modules really put it to shame, and the official expansions are far better as well.

Craig234: The first part I played was 'above average' IMO for an RPG.

We have to admit a lot RPG stories are less than very good.
I don't understand what people see in HotU, or even the community modules. Every NWN Hall of Fame game anyone's ever recommended to me has been rife with spelling and grammar mistakes, amateur voice acting (do it right or don't bother), and dialogue made by people who aren't the clever writers they think they are. Oh, and stop putting pop-culture references in your modules people--you're not funny.
Awe, Reus so close!
