In case anyone is interested in the game itself, I've got to say it's really good. I'm one of those who always picks the goody-two-shoes choices in RPGs, and I still had a blast. There's so much reactivity to your choices that as soon as I finished my first playthrough I started another.

The setting is imaginative, the characters are colorful, and the magic system is really neat. Dang, now I'm tempted to start it up again.

Probably not after all this time. It's really frustrating during sales.

I don't disagree with your opinion, but it doesn't apply to every Paradox game.

Regarding Crusader Kings for example, I just stopped caring about DLC since the release of Reaper's Due as for me they don't add anything noteworthy to the base game

There is a new DLC being released in a few days, "Holy Fury", which has been in development for a year. It seems it will add every single wish the fandom has been asking for.

This is what is listed under extras for me:

Anything missing here?

GOG has never done this right. It's one thing I doubt they will EVER get right.
EDIT: Furthermore, getting GOG to even acknowledge this as a problem is impossible. Support tickets and forum blues alike just brush it aside as "Not a big deal".

I have received "Anniversary Gift Pack" newsletter from Paradox Interactive - GOG registered game. Paradox Interactive does not mention the GOG platform at all.
As a loyal GOG user and customer, I am feeling bad that the developers and publishers tend to ignore GOG game owners and the GOG platform as a whole.
They should acknowledge GOG users existence in their official communication, respect us and treat their customers equally, regardless of the platform.

Are you certain about this?

Because I have a Windows stand-alone installer right here that does NOT contain the freeLCs. Something I have already written about in this very thread.

Not to tell you how to do your job... actually, screw that. I'm tired of this whole "what non-Galaxy users?"

It's outright disrespectful not to acknowledge a major reported issue. Even something as simple as "I cannot comment on the technical side of things, but will kick it up with the deployment team" would at least have been SOME kind of reaction, instead of complete silence on it in your reply.

Yes, I do feel strongly about this. It's far from the first time that GOG treats its own core customer base as pariahs. Not all of us are interested in "embracing" your client, for whatever reason, and you promised us that it won't be a requirement. So strongly that I went ahead to set up a disposable session and let Google data-mine that, since apparently it's utterly unthinkable for GOG to function without third-party scripts (again, even bloody Nexus manages to self-host captcha challenges).

Having a "blue" reply to this thread without any kind of acknowledgement of the time I put in verifying that there is an issue with stand-alone GOG installers for Windows missing the DLC content is really fucking telling.

I've spent years promoting GOG to everybody I knew. I sent GOG purchases as gifts to help you increase your exposure. Now, just because I have personal objections to some parts of implementation of your client, I am to resign myself to being treated like an unwanted legacy?

To hell with that.

Yes of course. And also if we already have Standard or even Deluxe edition we can just purchase the Gold version. *irony* The only problem is that these options (including mine) are slightly more expensive.
Joking aside! The real problem is that even with the Deluxe version, buying two remaining Tyranny Expansions costs more than 2 times more than the price difference between the Deluxe and the Gold editions. And, moreover, according to the result, the Gold version will still be shown as not owned.

This is disgusting towards the owners of existing versions and, in turn, from our part, to support such business practices of the publisher is a very bad idea. Therefore, I personally do not intend to overpay 2 times or re-buy the Gold edition. With such an attitude - I will think about buying the missing content no sooner than I see a 90% discount. And maybe in general I give up the idea of buying. There is always an alternative option.
Specifically to GOG, since this is a decision of the publisher, I have no complaints. But GOG could kick the publisher for such things.

If you have previous top-tier edition, you already own all the goodies, so you just need to buy the add-ons:

Congratulation, you now own the Gold Edition!

EDIT - I just saw you already have these DLCs? So congratulation, you owned the Gold Edition before it has been officially released!

I just installed the game using the new standalone installer (1.2.1.0160) and also found that the Portrait Pack DLC is missing despite the changelog for the game claiming it has been included. Not sure how to check for the presence of the Sword and Armor DLC.

Submitted a support ticket.

C'mon GOG - what's going on here and please don't tell me that I need to log into a Paradox account for the DLC to appear!!!!

I originally purchased the old Overlord Edition (now Deluxe) in pre-order, in my library the content shows right. but if I check the store pages, only Tyranny - Official Soundtrack Deluxe Editionis marked as owned and not the full Deluxe Edition...

This DLC labyrinth was planned rather poorly and greedily. Not blaming GOG or anything, just rolling my eyes a little. Game seemed decent, but I didn't get far.
