You've got mail!

Browsing catalogs, tracking sales, ain't nobody got time for that.
Well, you finally don't need to - we'll email you when a game on your wishlist goes on sale.


Starting this weekend, when a GOG.com game (or games) on your wishlist gets a discount, you'll receive an automatic email notification with a quick way to jump straight to the product page. Nice and convenient.
If you don't want to receive these notifications, you can always unsubscribe directly through the first email you receive, or by heading to Account > Orders & Settings > and changing your Subscriptions settings.


We're still in the early days of rolling out the feature, so we'll continue iterating and nailing down the details and functionality - but with nearly 13,000 votes for the option on our Community Wishlist, we sure hope it comes in handy!

Swapware1: Only way you can get a refund on GOG if the product doesnt work on your computer, not like if you change your mind.
You can get a refund if you changed your mind, assuming you haven't downloaded any files.

bouncedk: Finally. Now you need to fix your "money back guarantee" which isn't a guarantee at all.
You are seriously lacking in that department compared to Origin and Steam.

(...)

Here's how it goes on GOG:
- Buy game
- Download game
- Play game
- Request refund
- Get standard bot answer
- Answer standard bot answer
- Get another standard bot answer yet again
- Answer standard bot answer yet again
- Get another friggin' bot answer (is anyone even reading this?!)
- Give up, GOG wins
Are you referencing ticket Z1R09Q3A? I see that we sent you a reply (granted, it was basic troubleshooting, but definitely not a "bot response") and you never got back to us. Were you only getting the auto-responder / ticket confirmation email all the time? I'm unaware of such an issue taking place at the time (or at all) so hopefully this was some strange edge case...
Please feel free to reply to your ticket once again, or contact me via email directly (I will PM you my address). We will do our best, but if we can't help you, you will get your money back. Since there was apparently some communication error here back in the day, we will skip the bit about your order being way older than 30 days, of course. :)

Arinielle: ... I'd prefer to have messages sent on the site if that's possible. ...
I like this. They could write something like:

"3 Games from your Wishlist are discounted" and then a link which directly goes to the Wishlist plus a filter which only displays discounted games from the wishlist.

But I still also need some emails containing useful information about promos because I do not want to come here everyday (even if currently I'm coming here almost every day).

Matruchus: Ok, got my first email for the wishlist discounted games but that email is kind of pointless since it doesn't tell me how much the games are discounted and what is the base price before the discount and the discounted price. This is kind off a standard feature with other stores so it would be nice if the email would be supplemented with that data in the future.
I made a wishlist entry for it:
http://www.gog.com/wishlist/site/include_price_and_base_price_and_discount_in_emails_about_games_wishlisted_on_promo

And I turned this new feature off temporarily until it is more useful.

Love you Firek, but look at the guy's avatar. Do you really think anything you say or do is going to satisfy him? :P It's what we call over in the States "Playing with a loaded deck." You can't win this one friend. :D

Firek is a sweetie, just looks angry:)

took you long enough to add this (standard for any other eshop) feature. Too bad lack of it drove players like myself to using external listing sites that not only offered this feature years ago, but also show other eshops

Thanks everyone at GoG!

I have been hoping this feature was coming.

Keep up the great work!

Good feature though I won't use it because... when I'm online I'm on gog, often before I check my Mails so...^^

Thank you!

I really like the way GOG handled my enormous wishlist! Everything nice and tidy in just one mail : )
Thank you!
Turned it off though, I am living here ; )

Thanks! This is a nice feature to have.

So I guess we'll be able to sort games by Galaxy Achievement integration sometimes in 2019.
