Yay! Congrats how you doin playa and all that! That's some happy news for a change! Lets hope all removed games from here get the same happy ending, ending up here... Again.

Always happy to have more games on here! If some are bothered by the regional pricing so much they can just wait for sales or not buy it. Looking forward to more games coming back or arriving for the first time!

PaterAlf: I'm not completely sure that bringing back an eight year old and a five year old indie game regional priced is really good news. Seems to be another sign that sooner or later the whole catalogue (including the old games) will become regionally priced.
+1 The story seems written already, indeed.

Tarm: True that. Nowadays good news for customers seems to be losing a little to corporations instead of losing much.
Remembers me another one, at work : "Good news, you can now buy your corporate (insert name of an expensive smartphone from a well-known US supplier ) for 499 €. The pre-deployed security suite protects you by making the installation of non pre-approved applications impossible. It also allows a constant geolocalisation that will protect you in case of theft and a monitoring of call to a full user protection "

IAmSinistar: Given that regional pricing doesn't seem to be going away, I believe having more games is the best course to pursue. So thanks for bringing these back, and I hope it means we will see further returns, as well as other releases that were previously disqualified.

I can agree with that too... but realpolitik is never that satisfying.

I see this argument quite often. Unfortunately waiting for a sale doesn't help at all. Even in promos the games are still regional priced. And for many of us who are opposing regional pricing (at least the unfair way it is done most of the time), it isn't about the money, but a matter of principles.

soulroar: ...or not buy it.
That's exactly what I do. But I won't stop telling the developers and publishers why I don't buy their games. They should at least know that they can easily get my money when they return to flat pricing again.

Sadly true. All the works of humanity are flawed mirrors of the ideals they strive towards.

So.... wait, what's the story? I'm confused. GoG caved and put full region pricing on it? Or the publisher caved?

GOG allowed them to return with regional pricing.

Hmmm i see... Well i'm in the US so i probably won't see that problem...

Means if it goes heavily on sale i might get a copy of each for trading with someone so they don't have to worry about Regional pricing.

Yep, the publisher caved in. Like Napoleon when he met Marshall Ney upon his return to France.

History was one of my worst subjects, so i'm certain you are being sarcastic but i can't tell...

Yes, I was. The troops under Ney changed side when they saw the Emperor advance towards them ;-)

I don't go as far. I just wait till I can find them with a 50% discount. (on GOG, not on Steam )

To be perfectly honest, there are other games I would rather see come back since survival horror is not really my thing, but Frictionals catalogue is quite good for fans of the genre. Welcome back.

This is as good as it is horrible at the same time.

I am with you but one have to say that the price difference in a sale seem to be very little.
