90% of the threads on gog are about how Windows 10 breaks all the games, repeatedly (a new slew of such threads is guaranteed after every major patch). The correct answer is to complain to Microsoft and have them actually deliver on backwards compatibility. Of course they know this won't work, because MS doesn't care. Instead, entitled people expect gog and others to "fix" games that have long since stopped making money for the original creators. Some are even willing to pay a fair price for such service, which is fine. Not so fine, if they expect me and others who don't have this issue to pay the price, as well.

They aren't just "fixing it for modern machines", though (which almost always just means "the latest Windows" without much regard to Mac and Linux users). Too bad Beamdog's idea of "backwards compatibility" is to capture all of the old content, and not allow any means of providing content for old users. Much like how MS forces the world into Office upgrades (although, to be fair, at least MS sometimes provides a hidden option for backwards compatibility).

Actually, I wouldn't. I don't need an ad for the EE that never goes on sale or drops in price, and doesn't provide the Linux version (not that the latter is entirely Beamdog's fault, but it's a problem they could correct, and won't). They should just finally drop the charade and replace the original with the EE. At least threads like this will finally stop appearing, and we can complain about the actual product being sold here instead of speculating.

I, and many others, disagree, as we discussed to death months ago. Nothing has changed, including your blind faith arguments about how wonderful the future is. If you expect a game that provides proper support for modern systems with all-new features, demand a new game. Better yet, write a new game.
