Necropost!
As a fact, I do already own all the 2150 expansions on CDs. So, why did I buy the GoG version?
Unfortunately, I have to admit that, while the idea of aiding GoG is enchanting, the main reason is the language.
My basic 2150 is englsh and I love it. The expansions came to the stores localized...
I am an avid ED player and I do not understand the agency that is our translators. The original game came with surprisingly perfect style. I loved my "Urals", "Cossacks", "Khans" and all the other units. They brought about a feeling of ... home... I guess. And my fellow citizens, charged with translating the game, ruined it all without breaking a sweat.
I still do not understand what the translators found repulsive in the original. Fortunately I do not have to brood on this, since i already have the full English version (thanks to GoG) and I can make it to the Exodus ships and beyond ... true Russian style.
I sincerely hope our translators learned that they were wrong the hard way (lubricants abound).
Best regards to everyone (human, sane and law abiding).
