My all-time favourite RPG. Slow-paced classic gameplay in a wonderful world. Would be a great addition to the GOG library, the first Drakensang is already here.

I used to play this game back in the days a lot. The gameplay, story and world design together is pure nostalgia. For me playing this game feels like 'coming home' after hard day.
One of my favorite classic RPG games together with its predecessor. The game play may seems a bit slow compared to modern standards but therefore most of the quests are better written with better humor than in most modern games. I still have the original ROMs of both Drakensang games & the first one GOG. So why not add this too and make it easy playable again.

The first Drakensang was good, this prequel is brilliant. This is the closest I ever felt to replaying the old-school, heroic tabletop RPG's I used to love as a kid.

The follow-on to Drakensang. I found the River of Time to be more polished. It has great writing with decent graphics and combat. The world was a refreshing change from most fantasy RPGs. Character choice made a difference - play as a thief and raid the warehouse, play as a guard and stop the thieves from raiding that warehouse. The essential question for me is: Did I have fun playing the game? Yes, yes I did. I still have my disks and would love to play it again.
"Drakensang: The River of Time" is an underrated gem that deserves a place on GOG. It offers a fantastic RPG experience similar to NWN2 with a beautifully crafted world rich in lore and a unique low-magic setting based on the German "The Dark Eye" (Das Schwarze Auge) system. Since the first Drakensang is already on GOG, adding The River of Time and its expansion "Phileasson's Secret" would complete the series and allow more players to enjoy this great RPG. Hope to see it here soon! :)

Fable
FableThe adventure in which you are about to embark tells the story of how once upon a time a young boy named Quickthorpe set out a journey through the lost world of Balkhane. It is a Fable in one way, but in the 'trick of the tale', it's a strange adventure through a shattered world and a saga born out of the very sick mind of a man called Ismael. Long ago in the mists of time lived the Mecubarz. Ancient and beautiful, powerful and wise they ruled absolute. Strange beings, magical creatures and humans lived together in peace and harmony, until greed destroyed it all. Ismael, a respected man, and revered by all, sadly had a heart that was hollow and bitter. He and four others plotted to overthrow the Mecubarz. The Mecubarz' fury at the treason of Ismael and his men was cataclysmic. They trapped the four seasons and put them into impenetrable crystals, casting them to the four corners of the shattered world where they stood still and were held in an eternal dominion of ice, mist, water, and fire. The four traitors were exiled, but Ismael disappeared. As Quickthorpe, an inexperienced adventurer, your quest is to explore the Four Lands of the Mecubarz in search of the mystical gems that will liberate your people. Keen observation, puzzle-solving skill and quick thinking are the abilities required to undertake this exciting but unpredictable task. Interact with a universe of characters which come to life with true speech creating a world with an atmosphere so thick you can feel it. Combined stunning animations and atmospheric sound effects will ensure that Fable will take you on the journey of a lifetime! But beware... in the world of Fable not everything is as it seems.

Fable: The Lost Chapters
Fable: The Lost ChaptersFable was expanded and rereleased as Fable: The Lost Chapters for Xbox and Windows PC platforms in September 2005. The game was later ported to Mac OS X by Robosoft Technologies and published by Feral Interactive on 31 March 2008. The Lost Chapters features all the content found in the original Fable, as well as additional new content such as new monsters, weapons, alignment based spells, items, armour, towns, buildings, and expressions, as well as the ability to give children objects. The story receives further augmentation in the form of nine new areas and sixteen additional quests. Characters such as Briar Rose and Scythe, who played only minor roles in the original game, are now given more importance and are included in certain main and side quests. Other character-based augmentations include the voice of the antagonist, Jack of Blades, sounding deeper, harsher and more demonic, and the ability to uncover (and resolve) the murder mystery of Lady Grey's sister. The updated edition of the game also applied fixes for certain glitches, such as the "dig glitch," in which the protagonist would move backward each time he used the shovel, pushing him through solid objects and sometimes trapping him.
