The Dark Eye gazes upon you!

Blackguards Special Edition, an engaging RPG in the world of the Dark Eye with deep tactical combat mechanics, is available 10% off on GOG.com. That's $40.49 for the first week!

<i>The Dark Eye</i> (or rather, <i>Das Schwarze Auge</i>) is to the German role-playing gamers what <i>Dungeons and Dragons</i> is to their US counterparts. For exactly 30 years now, the brave adventures have roamed the land known as Aventuria. It witnessed epic campaigns, secretive plots, and strange magical happenings--everything that makes a place <i>real</i> in player's imagination. Now, Daedalic Entertainment, the german game-dev powerhouse that ventured into the world of The Dark Eye in their adventure games, [url=http://www.gog.com/game/the_dark_eye_chains_of_satinav]Chains of Satinav and Memoria, gives you a whole new and original story to experience. And this time--it's an RPG.

Blackguards Special Edition, a new turn-based strategy RPG, places the fate of the land in the hands of a pack of misfits, convicts, and outcasts. In its grim, yet engrossing gameworld, you will discover over 180 unique hex-based battlegrounds within a dark and mature story of crime, drugs, and murder. Play as a warrior, mage or hunter and customize your character's skills as you see fit. The challenging campaign delivers a story of doubt, treason and loss. You decide the course of the story at key turning points and determine its outcome. The game comes with a full soundtrack in WAV format (no lossy MP3 compression here, nope!), and video interviews with its creators.

Set out on an adventure unlike any other, and get to know the party of unlikely heroes of Blackguards Special Edition, for only $40.49 on GOG.com. The 10% off release discount offer lasts until Wednesday, January 29, at 3:59PM GMT.

I am disappoint. I expected more chests. 20 hours into it I've only encountered it once.

BadDecissions: GOG insists on carrying one version, which costs extra for crap that I never will even download--guess who gets my business?
Just noting that in most surveys GOG has done, the overwhelming response has usually been "Ship the soundtracks already". Steam is for the basic DRM'd up edition with nothing extra. GOG is for the deluxe service, the guarantee to work without fiddling, the bonus extra's, and no DRM.

Think of it as high brow retail. I'd have to say that I'm firmly in the high brow camp too. I enjoy the soundtracks, I like not having to deal with DRM which is getting increasingly obnoxious, and I like the variety of games. Philosophical differences, but GOG is/was (they're moving away from cool stuff, Steam must be getting exclusive deals) the place to go for things you couldn't acquire elsewhere such as soundtracks.

Yup, for me it's just that one map so far too.

Needs more cowbell.

My big hope is that they start adding module add-ons for this game (kind of like Dragonfall for Shadowrun).

Too much hustle and not enough settling down.
One thing I've always loved about GOG is that the games are inexpensive. I suppose there's no harm in adding pricier titles, but I'll wait to see if the price goes down.
Looks good. I've got a bunch of RPGs I want to finish first though, so wishlisting for now.
