Titanium: Wanted to buy three things from the list, but, you know, boycott.

In fact, there is no more wishlist. Because I don't want to buy any more.

Che Guevara travelling to China to start a revolution against communists? That makes no sense whatsoever.

China as of now is "communist" in name only.

So you think Che Guevara would fix it if he had the chance?

Orkhepaj: buy what you will want to play next at least within a month

foxworks: That logic was fine maybe a decade ago. However, in today's digital world, and with games especially, it can 'magically' be removed from sale, possibly never to be seen again.
Not to mention price policy – for older games it's reasonable to grab them during Winter Sale, when some of them reaches historical lows. And the next big sale is Summer Sale. The same as with books – my purchases are never driven by the current needs. Collection is nice, I like a feeling to go to my book/games library to choose something new to play.

Regarding my Winter Sale haul – nothing big:
· Agent A: A puzzle in disguise
· Outlaws + A Handful of Missions
· Prison Architect (freebie)
· Victoria Complete (Paradox bundle)
· Hearts of Iron III (Paradox bundle)
· Europa Universalis III (Paradox bundle)
· The Incredible Machine collection (e-mail discount)
· Escape from Monkey Island (bundle, this game makes my Monkey Island series complete, I haven't played this one, perhaps except of demo some years ago)

No need to hurry with buys, usually the games will go on another sale anyway within months.
I recommend only buy what you actually want to play in a few months. Pointless to put games into your library, if you won't even use them.

Nothing atm, i'm focussing doing a backlog of my purchased games in case my account goes down.
Posted December 20, 2020
Soldier of Fortune 2 Gold and Freedom Fighters.

Maybe GoG staff should also play Freedom Fighters?

Just de-Steamified Shadow Warrior 2013 and Ruiner. Also got the Summer&Winter Olympic challenge from the newsletter discount.

I don't like Che being a homophobe and other problematic alligations, but I think he would have stood for Taiwan. Probably he wouldn't care for Devotion or any videogame, lol.
I don't know if I would be boycotting but honestly between backlog and scarcity of money I can do without any purchase.

It depends, if it's a really good deal you might want to grab it now instead of paying more later, after all if it's a game you want to play the date of purchase doesn't matter. Even tho I haven't played everything yet, the same order I made during last sale would have cost me more money with the current discounts.

During black friday I got 90% off War for the Overworld but it's "only" 80% for the winter sales, same thing with Way of the Samurai 3 that went from -85% to -75%.

La-Mulana 1 and 2
Metal Gear Solid 1 and 2

Now all I have left is Cyber Shadow and Silksong. I don't think I'm waiting for anything else to release anymore.
Ok that's a lie, Sea of Stars looks super dope.but I think that's really it. Other than potential DLCs and sequels.

My haul consists of:

Prison Architect FREEBIE
Brigador: Up-Armored Edition FREEBIE
Hellish Quart DEMO

Total of $0.00

and that's exactly how much I can spare to support Gog on every sale (or out of sale) after the Cyberpunk and Devotion fiascos.

BTW even Heretic's release have not changed this. PIty, I wanted those games. But different from Gog I have principles.

Edit: also grabbed Metro: Last Light Redux FREEBIE
Becastled DEMO
Heretic Bundle GIFTED
