..and the second day, GOG's promo broke. WTF lol.

EDIT: ah no, now the game groups contain just 2 titles instead of 6.

It also showed on the email promo.....

Nevermind, disregard.

And I wouldn't hold my breath for it being on sale either. The rights situation to Arx Fatalis is, if I remember correctly, all sorts of messed up. The game is owned at least patrially by Bethesda, which isn't even a publisher on gog. If anything, we can be happy that AF is even still being sold on gog.

JMich found screenshots and made a list.

The following have not appeared in a flash sale as of yet:
(If these are intended for a flash sale...)
Alan Wake's American Nightmare
Banished
Omerta City of Gangsters
Omerta City of Gangsters Gold Edition
Omerta City of Gangsters The Japanese Incentive
Outlast Whistleblower
Still Life 2
Torchlight
Worms United

Wow! I'm glad I got almost everything I wanted the first go around, because with this new format of only 2 games (instead of 10) switching out every 36 minutes, I would not have stuck around long enough to purchase as much as I did initially. Strangely, like others, the one game I still wanted to get was Banished, but it appears that maybe its promo banner was created prematurely, in that it's no longer in the sale anymore...

This Age of Wonders bundle looks tempting. Who recommends them for players more accostumed to RTS and not TBS?

I think Gog must have read my post (or mind) the other day about a half year sale going until June 30... because I honestly had no clue this was going to happen XD

Maybe I should ask for more obscure things in the future?

Ah, so it was a blue post. Thanks. I haven't been checking the emails lately.

What you say is probably true but in all honesty, every single thing GOG does regardless of how awesome it is or how great their intentions are towards their loyal community - there is always going to be at least one, but more likely hundreds of people out there that complain about it. It is human nature to a certain degree, and statistically relevant that some people go out of their way to try to find the bad in things, or to have entitlement mentalities for example and their very personalities seek out negative things that exist only in their own minds because it is their own personal nature. Just like in politics and other situations where you have a leader or authority figure or someone deciding how something is going to be for a large non-trivial group of people - there will always be someone or some group of people out there who are unhappy about it or will pretend to be for attention or whatever.

You could for example drive through town in a car and giving away $5000 to every person who comes up to your car and give away that money to 100,000 people. There will be people out there who will complain that you didn't give away $10,000. There will be people out there who didn't know it was happening and/or fell asleep and will complain that you should have driven around for 8 days instead of 7 so that they could have found out about it and got money too. There will be people who take the money and then say negative things about you like "he's just giving money away to look high and mighty and draw attention to himself". There are more people who do these sort of things to a lesser or greater degree in life than there are people who don't, some are relatively minor and others just have a huge chip on their shoulder. Either way, there's an endless supply of negativity out there towards just about everything, and anyone in a decision making position that intersects with the opinions of thousands of people needs to not only be aware of it but to expect it and be able to deal with the constant influx of negative comments and feedback, whether it is in any way warranted or not because it is just human nature. Just look at the comments section on every single video ever uploaded to Youtube in the history of the website for 100+ examples per video. :)

So, it really doesn't matter what GOG does in a sale they will always get negative feedback from some number of people every single time and it's absolutely guaranteed. The only thing they need to be concerned about really is to keep an eye on things for emerging patterns to see if there are just a few negative personalities that like to complain about everything in life, or if there's a real problem that is affecting a large number of people in a way that they didn't intend or that they can adjust and improve the experience for everyone, and then go ahead and make adjustments or even just take notes for future offerings for example.

The day GOG does any kind of sale, giveaway, promo or anything at all out of the norm and does not have at least somebody out there complain about it, is the day the sun becomes a red dwarf and swallows the Earth. ;o)

30th of June :) So you have 16 days of sale left :)

I already own all games from the current packs, except for AoW2 Wizard's Throne and Unreal 2.
Are those good and should I get them?

Unreal 2 is a bit weak if compared to the first Unreal, but isn't a bad game, you can buy without fear

I reckon Deadalic Entertainment is worth supporting - although they mainly have been doing adventure games, they have potential for making interesting RPGs or TBS games - lie Blackguards - that game got a "bad rep" for being to hard/unbalanced for most of the modern gamers... I loved the idea of playing with stats through trial and error to discover which statistic/spell/weapon damage type/attributes are crucial and which are not that important.... The level design was good - lots of different battles in different environments, the voice acting was not good and was annoying sometimes, some fights were tough if you had an archer/magician build character instead of melee fighter, but overall I'm glad that I jumped onto this game and I look forward to Blackguards 2 (coming in 2015...). Btw: the DLC was very short (only a few tiny quests extra in chapter 5....).
