With the exception of ShinyLoot which also doesn't use regional pricing for the time being, every other digital distributor applies the $1=€1 conversion for Nordic Games.

Exactly the jist that I got from G-Doc's post, before there was only one currency i.e. USD on GOG for all games except a few that are regionally priced like The Witcher 3 and Divinity Original Sin to name a couple. But since GOG is now offering more local currency options like Euro, Pounds Sterling, Australian Dollars, and Roubles while trying to keep them close to USD prices this provides an opportunity to publishers which they didn't have before. Meaning since there was no other currency option before they had to comply with one world fair price to have their games on GOG, but since GOG now has more regionally priced games as well as the option for ALL games to be purchased in local currencies some publishers can now exploit this.

All the people cursing the regional price detractors as the culprits in this removal of games are not paying enough attention to read between the lines of what G-Doc said in his post. Local currency option is a good addition as more options is always a good thing but it has consequently created a scenario where most publishers and partners of GOG will follow this new pricing model for additional local currencies closer to the USD prices and some won't. It seems that someone at Nordic now probably wanted a similar kind of deal as it has with other digital distributors to charge more for the additional local currencies instead of an almost similar price to the USD one world one price policy which is now changed to Fair Price Package Because $1 is not €1.

So in summation the games are not going away because of lack of regional pricing but they are infact being removed because of the introduction of other local currency payment options added by GOG for ALL the games instead of just the one or two that we had the regional pricing for before.

The difference should be compensated by the lack of conversion fee, also IIRC they said that it would be possible to continue paying in dollars should you want too.

I hope GOG makes completely clear what was the cause of the issue, because I still see people pointing fingers at every involved party and apparently they do not have clear what was the real cause of this, I for instance do not have it clear at all.

You can pay in $... at a higher $ price. :P
Example: Blackguards is now $59.29 as opposed to the previous $44.99 price.

Simple: This game also got regional pricing added today. That's a different story altogether.

I know that; after all I was the one that informed Sinistar. :P

I know. Thing is...most games have a "correct" conversion and remain the same when paying with dollars. :)

Indeed.

Disappointing decision by Nordic Games..

Thanks for the heads up though, GOG.

I upvoted you for truth. Make of that what you will.

This is really sad news. We seem to be losing games faster then they get added to GoG. Why are these games dropping out?

What is the pricing issue, gog's or the publisher's? That gog doesn't want to sell them for less, or the publisher doesn't want to sell them for the current price, or what?

This is disappointing. The whole central point of gog is to make the older games available, and this is doing the opposite. If it's a gog pricing issue, they should adjust their policy - put the customer first and keep availability.

Maybe the publisher is being unreasonable, not much to do about that I guess. But more explanation should be given.

I hate to see Nordic Games pulling out, though I have all of their titles that I was interested in getting. However, they had not released Spellforce 2: Faith In Destiny to GoG yet which was a title I was hoping would come here.
