A question about the HoMM bundle.

Aside from 5, do any of the other games come with any languages other than english?

And if anyone says french I will make them eat their own head.

I even have a slideshow detailing how I would do it.

lostwolfe: i totally get that some people prefer the randomness and frantic pace of the insomnia sales, but it's just not my cup of tea.

Bambusek: Insomnia is about craziness that is happening in the comment section :) Outside that yeah, this one is better for customers.
^ This.

My very first forum post was in the Spring Insomnia Tracker thread and it was the interaction there that has kept me around these forums ever since. I was amazed (and inspired) by the generosity of many of the people involved and that's when I decided that this was an online community I would actually want to make an effort to make time for in my life.

None of them.

A pity. I wanted to gift it, unfortunately the recipient doesn't know much english.

I was hoping 4 would, I know it was translated.

LynetteC: The problem with this sale is that if I see a title I'm not familiar with I have plenty of time to take a look and decide if it's something I'm likely to play. This is leading to purchases that I may not have had time to make in an insomnia type sale. (I'm looking at you, Gangland!)

Grargar: OK then, let me help you a bit; this is the historically-lowest price the game has ever been on GOG (and in other digital distributors).
Unfortunately what l gain from the extremely low prices I lose on all the extra games l end up buying!

I sometimes feel bad for GOG that I tend to buy the majority of my games when they're discounted but then I think of all the gift codes I buy, some for games I wouldn't even consider for myself, and l realise that they're probably - no, make that DEFINITELY - making more from me than if I only bought the odd full priced game for myself!

Ha ha, same for me. I wouldn't have bought that game in an Insomnia sale. Not sure though, if that's an argument for or against the current type of sale. :P
Wow, im waiting for dreamfall flash deal, and finally was at 3 a.m., i was sleeping :-(

I think that flash deals must end in 8 hours not in 5h. :-/
I've been holding out on a couple flash sales like Journeyman in the hopes of a bundle. Maybe I missed it, but have we figured out the coming bundles yet?
this is booring...

c'mon GOG. I want to support you, give me some good offers of the games I'm actually interested in!! .so far I've only been able to buy 2 games...( I'm not sure that's actually a bad thing, my wallet seems happier than in other sales....)


also, what's with the repeats so soon? those can definitely wait for the encore day/grand finale!!

Unfortunately not. GOG got wise and encrypted the names of the graphics!

hellmonster67: Pretty sure I am missing a stamp from the first day of the sale as well.. that happen to anyone else?
avatar
genkicolleen: Me, but it's my own fault -- I didn't realize that we had to CLAIM our stamps. I thought it was automatic.
It just came to my mind, do you guys that missed some stamps have empty space on stamp no. 1 placeholder?

The sale will be going on for more than two weeks, so maybe you don't have to claim the stamps in the first seven days, but just "check in" seven times during the sale.

I tried to find some info in the official announcement, with no success. On the other hand, GOG are pretty fair guys, it seems reasonable that they would give second chance (like with flash sales repeats)

Only a tiny minority actually sticks around an insomnia-type sale for hours on end, everybody else simply misses most game deals altogether. This way the average customer is going to get the opportunity to make that decision on a lot more games, so even if they decide against many of them, they'll probably still buy more.

yes, you only need 7 stamps, no matter the days you collected them. however, you can't collect more than 1 per day.

they have said that like, somewhere...
Next flash deal is Jagged Alliance 2, so time to grab it (I was sleeping the first round it appeared).

only the names?

duh, they are starting to learn.... (or they just know we already know what bundles will be without needing to see any hidden tips)
