Yeah.. but even if I had to wait another month, I'd chose GOG over STEAM any day. GOG could charge twice the amount and I'd still not opt to support DRM instead. The day when Origin and STEAM go batshit insane or are being sold or close the gates for good will come and I won't pay for anything that has its functionality tied to the seller as long as there's any option for a truly fair deal.

In short: (to me) bad advertisement is no reason to question the core principle I value GOG for :-)

Tho I fully agree on the scolding part regarding the advertisement for 27th ;-)


Yarp, sad but true. But just because many do it doesn't make it the right choice. It's not about the date or time - it's about how it's being communicated.

As I said above: announce 28th and give early access at 22:00 UTC on 27th = everyone cheers! But announce 27th and then deliver when the day is almost over = many long faces. 22 o'clock on 27th would've been 91% to the 28th. When communicating this, one should round 27.91 up to 28, not down to 27.

Oh well, seems like they've realized it too by now. Since the new countdown for me is set to 17:00 now (UTC+1), at least I can start the download when I come back from work - and if the servers can handle the load, I might even be able to play on the 27th as it was advertised :-)


Anyhow, let's moan, but not get full-on cringy. We'll get a DRM-FREE Kingdom Come Deliverance TODAY! Happy happy joy joy - aaaaand... did I say yay? \o/

Czech developer/ publisher and Polish distributor with servers in Netherlands.

EU companies typically release during EU prime time, so I wasn't too surprised they changed it :P

I started using Galaxy client and could not get any timer to show there. Glad I found this thread, was hoping I will be able to download this game while I was working but no:/
I am so happy this game is available on gog so soon, though I am still rather disappointed with the wait; I would have got nice collector's edition from developer if they made them gog and not Steam. Witcher showed everyone that good games can be released via gog, would be nice to see that happen more often.

It's almost Henry Time.

No idea why they're doing this. Always the same story - the official release is on day X but you have to wait the entire day. Why they don't unlock games right at midnight, one second into the release day?

Countdown target seems to vacillate between 4pm and 5pm UTC.

Server problem

Now we just have to wait on the game. ;-)

It's downloading here. Strange.
A little bit more, just a little bit...

is it only possibel to download through the galaxy? because i don't see any alternative to download without galaxy or will the standalone installer come later?

Yes I am downloading game right now through the galaxy.

i didnt see anything on gog.com, too...can only download with galaxy

Only galaxy client at the moment for me and the backup and goodies section is empty

Downloading now. Seems we here in SEA are at the bottom of the food chain.
