rjbuffchix: I am in favor of curation but think RPGs are particularly popular among GOG's audience, especially old-school minded users, so they should not be getting rejected unless we are talking RPG Maker asset flips. When you (not "you" personally) think about it, the love of RPGs on this store makes a lot of sense. Gamers who like dedicated single player experiences will often gravitate to RPGs, since they're usually designed that way and have a massive amount of content (thus a deeper experience compared to shorter games).
But that's EXACTLY how I feel.....hence why I said what I did....you seemed to have made a grammatical error before, is what I meant. :) rjbuffchix: GOG curation have already approved multiple mediocre-looking games with mobile design. That weakens trust and the problem is compounded when the consumer also sees desirable non-mobile-type games getting rejected by curation.
Plus Gog approves games with boatloads of DLC as well, which some feel goes against their original mission and also weakens some trust. (Not by me....I couldn't care less if Gog sells such, but some mind it and are vocal about it)
rjbuffchix: I know I personally am willing to buy RPGs without having played them, but not other genres.
I am also willing to buy or at least wishlist(due to tight budget) many games from certain genres, and i'm sure many others do as well. ===========================================
This....I wasn't trying to put those games(or those who love them) down.....I just used them to make a point(that there's more potential customers for some genres).
