EndQueen: In a word: NO.
Blame the devs/publisher, make that both, for this colossal screw up.
Instead of giving notice to gog and steam, they decide to spring it out of nowhere and suprise fans; leaving everything up
in the air with people working round the clock to get a stable release out (currently steam) with no word on the GOG release. All the while remaining mum/silent about it due to fan irritation due to their stance.
And as time goes on, the release of this expansion seems more and more unlikely due to the delays/no actual news that are caused by the stupidity of whoever pushed the release button on the expansion that had a twitchy push finger. And fans ultimately give the game bad reviews due to this.
Its already been a week since it was announced, and released on steam with no word on the current progress for GOG other than pushbacks to its release. GOG could at least put up a store page for the expansion, and the dev/pub could take responsibility for this by being transparent about what happened and releasing the content on GOG; and or helping getting it released with the QA stuff.
This is what gets me worked up and angry at them, im willing to wait for content and pay for it; but whats happening now with this feels like a betrayal to me; and ultimately makes me lose faith in the industry.
Atleast we will get the dlc release and updates. On Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion, the DLC that was supposed to be released, they said they didn't have any interest in releasing it on gog, or some such crap. I am willing to wait for the content.Blame the devs/publisher, make that both, for this colossal screw up.
