piotrek18: thieves will always be thieves, and i don't like them, I don't care is he Polish, German or Chinese...
On one hand, I really want to ignore this thread. On the other, it's literally impossible to resist pointing out the irony of someone whose first post was an attempt to steal something now complaining about the injustices perpetrated by thieves :)

Let's just agree that stealing, fascists, and making large generalizations are bad things and move on, or this thread is going to get progressively uglier.

TW3 will be worse than TW1 and 2, cause the best person in CDP RED, Tomek Gop, is out of business... And these bonuses will never be in market... ;/ that was the reason I was posted my request. If these bonuses will be in catalogue, I will buy them, don't care that I will download them in past or not. But I wouldn't pay 50$ for some pictures... I'm not that pirate that are you (not Audrey, I mean all of you ;P) think - years ago I have downloaded NWN, but game was good - so I have bought it. The same was with THAW, F.E.A.R and more games. And the same will be with this bonuses.

227 - stealing car for 50k PLN and stealing some bonuses worth on market about 1$ isn't the same... I posted, I will pay for these bonuses if it will be possible.

Stealing is stealing, despite your attempts at rationalizing it. Freebies don't have the underlying emotional connection that games do, so the chance of you going out and buying the GOG version of the game once you have them is incredibly low. If you want it so badly, pay for the GOG version of the game. Otherwise it's theft, simple as that.

Your attempts to rationalize all of this have been incredibly offensive to everybody. If you're going to steal, at least own up to it--don't invoke things for the sole purpose of inciting others or act like it's not "technically" stealing.

Ciekawe, co by było jakbym pisał wszystko niezrozumiałą polszczyzną ;P Bo jak na razie mój angielski się spisuję ale za chwilę może być ciężko xD

And you are binding your posts many times... I understand your opinion, end of discusion. But paying 50$ for some bonuses... if TW1 and TW2 will cost 5.99 and will be in CDPROgram, I will take them from it, or pay this 6 dollars. but 6 and 50 it\s a big difference - maybe not for you, but for me - it is.

So that mean you can't afford it, thus making you ineligible for all the related content; simple as that. One thing that bugging me, why it seems you're bit reluctant to support your own countryman (refer back 3 posts above me)? It seems you suddenly try to justify your act.

What I don't get: What does the GOG-version offer what's not already part of the "Collectors Editon"? Or does the OP confuse CE and "Premium Edition"?

As far as I can see the CE actually has even more content. The coin, the dice set, the bust. Plus everything that's digitally in the GOG version is nicely printed in the CE.

Okay, there are the "bonus videos" in the GOG version. But that's simply a collection of all the videos that are floating around at gametrailers.com or even thewitcher.com. Just get them there (you can download them at gametrailers.com). And the one explaining the political situation is missing even.

The "Game Guide"...I'm not sure, but it might not be in the CE. However, it's not really a walkthrough. Everything you can read there you can get on the internet, for instance at http://witcher.wikia.com/wiki/Witcher_Wiki .

So...much ado about nothing in my opinion. ;)

The Game Guide is included in the CE.

What the CE is missing, is a couple of papercrafts (you get the normal PE ones (= Geralt + random) plus the Draug - so you lack all the 'random' papercrafts but one), some bonus tracks (3?) from the soundtrack and, apparently, a couple of wallpapers and avatars. That's it, I think.

So, it's more like 'much ado about little'. :p

wormwholewizard, Tomek Gop has left CDP for personal reasons, I don't know more... And yes, I'm looking for this avatars (there aren't any of this in CE).

That sounds about right. There are 4 GoG bonus tracks, but you can easily find those on youtube. There are a few videos that aren't included with CE, but then again... youtube and/or gametrailers have it all.

Piotrek, the avatars are just cropped portraits of character pictures you can find online. You can easily make them yourself with a really basic image editing program.

... which raises the question, why one should act like that's something super-exclusive you can't share, but insist on others buying.

I agree that the papercrafts, map, pamphlet, soundtrack and other actually original, 'purposefully' created stuff should not be given away. But what's the problem with sharing stuff anyone could make for himself within minutes by searching and slightly editing stuff that's available for free, i.e. wallpapers and avatars (apparently)?

I personally don't see a problem with sharing wallpapers and avatars, but the thing is - I don't have them. I just saw them on a friend's computer when I poked around to see the differences between GoG version and CE (that I own). My general reaction was a "meh" and a shrug, the graphics didn't impress me at all.

Yeah, but you know - I'm a really fan and collector of anything that have relation with Sapkowski's universe - the witcher world. I'm collectiong anything anything, I don't care it is good or bad. And I didn't know what these avatars and wallpapers look like - I tought that these goodies are something speciall, not avalible in the web. Thanks for letting to me what that is at all

That doesn't entitle to you getting them for nothing.

If you want them so bad, pay for them.

I can't believe the attitude of some people, he even posted the same thing in The Witcher forum.

And what makes that even more unbelievable is that game costs very little.
Posted July 27, 2011
50 dollars aren't nothing... and read posts above - I wrote that I don't want it anymore cause some people wrote that these 'goodies' are better 'baddies'... maybe some Polish magazines like CD-Action will give some better stuff than GOG...

Btw I don't understand, why TW and TW2 are on GOG... gog.com isn't right place for these games... they're good, but not old.

Not because you suddenly grew morals, and it doesn't change the fact that you did want them for nothing.

And The Witcher doesn't cost $50.

GoG is the sister company of CD Projekt.
