The biggest celebration of DRM-Free gaming this season is right now, right here on GOG.com! It's warm and nice outside, the summer draws ever closer, so let's make sure it's full of fantastic games. There's no one good way to spend your summer, but we know well that gaming can make every single one of them better. So, whether you plan to stay inside, hike into the wilderness, or take a boat into the calm sea, we'll make sure your laptop is filled with great DRM-Free games you can enjoy anytime, anywhere. To that end, we're holding our [url=http://www.gog.com]2014 DRM-Free Summer Sale!

Each day we'll present you with at least two special Bundle Deals with a selection of of great classics and indies available up to 90% off! As usual, you'll be able to buy just selected titles out of the bundle with a slightly lower discount, or complete your collection with just the ones you're missing, retaining the higher discount rate. Let's take a look at our offers for today, shall we?

Today, we seriously mix things up to bring you both lighthearted comedy as well as dark and morbid horror. The Legacy of Kain Saga is the Full House of gaming with its family themes and colorful presentation. Across four episodes ironically titled Soul Reaver, Soul Reaver 2, Blood Omen 2, and Defiance the series explores the relation between Kain, a authoritative father with obvious god complex, and Raziel, his rebellious son with questionable fashion sense. The story also includes many of their relatives from extended family, that cannot help but to make a mess in their imaginary homeland called Nosgoth. Hilarity ensues! All this cheerful moments for only $5.96 (that's 75% off!). The other of our offers today, is bound to chill the blood in your veins with its terrifying setting alone. The Deponia Complete Trilogy takes place on a distant planet. A planet, that long ago must have been not so different from our own Earth. Yet now, it is a grim and dark place that suffered a tragic environmental disaster. The surface of the planet is now completely covered with waste. Toxic rain flushes the pollution deep into the ground, poisoning it and making the land barren. Way above, there's the remaining enclave of civilization, housing the remnant of the human race. Now imagine one of them, a defenseless girl, falls down to the toxic junkyard below. Even though she doesn't die instantly poisoned with every imaginable toxin, her future looks grim. The wasteland is filled with danger, and soon she'll find out that she is not alone among the towering piles of garbage. What strange mutated monsters could have survived in such conditions? And what do they eat? The horror! All the thrills for just $11.97 (that's 80% off!). There you have it, a mix of laughter and cries of despair to fill your weekend with gripping gaming. Or did we overdo the mixing?

On top of that, almost all of our catalog has been discounted by up to 50%. On top of that, our front page is overflowing with excellent Flash Sales on single games. You can grab them up to 90% as well, but don't take to long, as they come and go pretty fast! Why don't you head out to GOG.com front page, and see what's happening right NOW!

justanoldgamer: That's frequent during big sales, it's too keep the Gogbear at bay.

JaqFrost: Well, previous sales it didn't use to say anything at all about owned games, which was by design as you said. Right now it's telling me I own Divinity 2 but not Baldur's Gate 2. That's never happened to me during previous sales and it seems strange if that's on purpose, but who knows. =P
I still don't see the "owned" message on the flash sales.. :\

EDIT: wait, now some ribbons have appeared on owned games

While waiting for Divinity: Dragon Commander: Imperial Edition and Jade Empire to download (around seventeen gigabytes combined) I collected more Riddler Trophies in Batman: Arkham Asylum. I don't know where The Riddler got so many trophies and how he managed to hide them all so quickly, but at least it's giving me a reason to keep playing. I hope Batman: Arkham Origins is as good as this game and Batman: Arkham City.
Looks like this sale is going to get my GOG shelf to hit the magic 500 purchases at last. I hope there is an Eschalon bundle deal so that I get rid of my copies from inferior vendors. But even if not I'll get them during the sale at their already-generous half-off price.
I can't wait to get off work tonight and play Sir You Are Being Hunted.

phaolo: Any opinions on these?
- Total Annihilation: Kingdoms
- The Pit Gold
The Pit is a brutal but fun roguelike, I've enjoyed it. Total Annihilation: Kingdoms gets reasonable reviews, but I haven't played it yet.

EDIT: GOGbear'd double post. I'll use this to pimp the Tracker thread then. :)

justanoldgamer: I love The Pit, I suggest starting without any DLC, and only adding one once you found every "recipes".
Wait, Gold edition doesn't seem to include the The Pilgrim DLC, doesn't it?
Also, how's the overall difficulty, is it balanced?
The graphic style, then, seems a bit basic. O_o

I really owned all those games.

Owned them hard.

Liking the new addition (or at least new to my browser) of the 'owned' flags so I don't have to keep opening up game pages to check if something is owned already or on wishlist (hint, hint might be nice to have a flag for that too - wait scratch that, it does show the little heart icon just missed it!).

Thanks GoG!

justanoldgamer: How come some games have a dynamic timer while others have a fix 1 or 2 Hours left?
So there are less timers on the page the javascript has to account for unnecessarily likely, and less dancing numbers. We only really need a countdown timer in the last hour for those last second purchases. If a game is on sale for an hour or more there's plenty of time without knowing how much time is left down to the last millisecond. :) It's just an aesthetic thing.

Breja: There really should be some schedule of upcoming releases and promos displayed on the site

foxworks: Hard to do with your competitors watching your every move ;-)
Maybe, but I'm sure something could be arranged. I'm sure that people would buy even more during promos like this if they had some warning and could plan their spendings. I definitely would. Same goes for new releases. If I'll know that a game I'm looking forward to will be released on GOG, then I'll buy it here, even if it means waiting a little. But I have to know first.

Corwim: did run into a technical error while paying, that was a first, but my order went through the second time, hope I was only charged once...
Just an FYI to everyone. I've seen several messages about errors while paying. I got one myself.

Before attempting to re-buy, check your email or your shelf. When I got my error, the games were immediately on my shelf and there was an email in my inbox immediately as well.

Of course, if you're double-charged there won't be a problem when you contact support, but if you check first you may be able to skip a step.

The graphic is good enough for the game. As for difficulty, it is very tough but very enjoyable. Like a good Rogue like, the goal might be to win but you really are just trying to get as far as you can before getting killed. The DLCs seem to ramp up the difficulty.

The Pit Gold doesn't include the Pilgrim DLC ($1.49). The graphic style is simple but cartoonish sufficient for a roguelike, there is a nice effect from the "fog of war" that keeps you guess what is just beyond your vision. The difficulty if brutal (maybe I'm just not humble enough to play on a reasonable seetting) but it's fun to explore around and see how far you can go. With the Gold edition at ~$3.50 I consider it a no-brainer, there's tons of playable characters even without Pilgrim DLC.

Gnostic: Re-Read the sales promo message

Gasp! most of 700 games 50% off already? The wait is just for deeper discount?

GOG had you gone berserk in competing with steam?
Every year GOG has a summer sale and winter sale extravaganza with the entire catalogue on sale 50% off for days/weeks, with some kind of special daily promotions on individual games up to 80% off or more and bundles with increasing discount the more games you buy in the discount. The current summer sale is similar to all of the summer sales they've had in the past although the multi-hour flash sales are a new but welcome addition.
