(I am not throwing a fist at GOG here since I am certain it would happen anyway if I got it somewhere else)


Was there a time you bought a game from GOG and felt like you wasted money, well I have 2 games I feel like I wasted money on.

Rainbow Six 1: bought it for my love of tactical shooters and played rainbow six 3, but I just cannot get myself to play this game at all because it feels old, outdated, and aged in a bad way, I mostly handle old games with no problems, but Rainbow Six 1 is to much for me. I wonder if Arma: Cold War Assault is any better aged.

Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare: The lack of CGI cutscenes because of technical issues is really preventing me from playing this game at all and to make it worse I have to install and fix it with some patch myself which I have no skills and knowledge of installing mods or patches at all and I do not want to waste people's time teaching me how to because I fear it could take awhile to teach me :(

It plays exactly like new ArmAs. Make of that what you will.

die by the sword and port royale 2 never got them to run and cant be assed launching a support ticket
Hmm, MoO3, I only got it because it was in a bundle, but I feel like I promoted it somehow.
Die by the Sword, bought it a good while ago when it was on a weekend sale.

Controls are absolutely terrible, if you could play it as a standard 3rd person action rpg using mouse to look about and keyboard to move I think I would enjoy it. But the whole mouse movement for combat just doesn't work well enough, such a shame really as I like the look of it and what I managed to play of it I did have me interested......Its just the controls.

I remember buying Evolva when it was first released on disc in the big A4 box. Got it a few weeks back in the Interplay deal and I can honestly say I haven't been enjoying it at all this time round. It just doesn't really grip me and it hasn't aged well at all, its the whole rose tinted glasses, pleased I got it though to add to my collection. I will get through it but only playing little bits at a time.
Two Worlds Epic Edition - ultimate bleh. Such a big world and I don't want to see any of it.
The Whispered World. My brother talked me into buying it. I lasted 5 minutes before I got so annoyed I had to walk away.
Sacrifice, game is broke and full of bugs and beetles

Jack Orlando just an awful game. I finished the Last Express and wanted to play a game similar and bought Jack Orlando

I got Sacrifice free from a giveaway, and I could not play it myself because of said bugs or system errors.

Tested it on my brother's desktop, game turns off on its own because of an error or something.

I don't know if it is any good. Haven't even downloaded it nor I have played it before
I somewhat regret getting Earthworm Jim, because honestly it doesn't handle well. Having played the old SNES version, the DOS version you get here is just... clunky and unresponsive. It's a fun game, but it ends up being substantially harder than it ought to be. I guess it's just a bad console port from the days before bad console ports were cool.

Quite a few for me like this, games from before my time that I just can't get used to. I started with shooters and adventure games really early on but I didn't play RPGs until Fallout, so early RPGs I buy here are really hit and miss.

I tried playing Might and Magic World of Xeen but it's just too old for me. Same with Ishtar and some others. Betrayal at Krondor I plan to try again but my first attempt was similar.

It's hard to go backwards.

Licurg will react as he always does: predictably.
