Too bad about the missing German for Vampyre Story. I know these localisation stuff is out of GOGs hands most of the time. But still, would have been nice.
Oh well, it is cheap and a digital backup is good *bought*

Hey ho, good releases. A Vampyre Story has been heavily recommended to me. Might get it later.

Yes, there exists a German dub fior the physical edition. A long time ago I would have said that it really can help if GOG get those files but since Judas obviously is not in charge anymore for such things GOG has proven again and again that they don't really care for any missing German versions anyway. Months(!) ago I've sent them the fixed files for the intro of Hitman Absolution which is only here on GOG English only and with my fix will become multi lingual again (including German). They did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING so far ... oh, they *cough* "forwarded" it ... meaning - they did nothing. So they continue to sell this game in this broken state even though I presented them the fix on a silver plattern. It is beginning to get annoying to be ignored by GOG whenever I want to help. It's also annoying to get downrepped by bots again and again for no reason but I guiess bots will be bots but GOG still could change.

But sure, you coulde try to send them those files - I would love to be wrong and of course I appreciate your effort (my rant is directled at GOG only) and thank you very much for it.

I dunno if this version of Vampyre Story is playable out of the box, but if you have problems running ist, check out my guide on https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1994207956

Dunno if it is integrated or not, perhaps GOG may integrate it in a patch.

Sure thing, no problem. I will check the disc in the following days (I have to "dig deep" to find it :D ) and will post here with the findings (hopefully).

If there's at least a single channel of communication with GOG for such matters, I would be glad to help further. I own a ton of older adventure games in physical format (that may or may not be multilingual) and I've seen a lot of you German guys asking for localizations here :)

Not accepting and integrating the localisations they have access to as well as the legal rights - yes, they have and they still do. We have countless German games in my German patch thread hier on GOG and I told GOG that they can use whatever they want to integrate those in their official versions. They never did and no, it is not because they simply don't have the rights. Don't know right now if this is the case for Vampyre Story though ... but unfortunately it is not the case that GOG is offering every language version they could.

Nice beginning of a weekend I must say :-D

Isn't Planet's Edge somehow connected with Buck Rogers games?

EDIT: Picked Planet's Edge, Vampyre Story and Wetlands.

If you like puns and reference humor, you just gotta play A Vampyre Story. Not to mention the game is very beautiful.

Nothing Buck Rogers Related I believe. It is an original universe/idea. One of the designers was Jon Van Caneghem itself (Might and Magic) Nothing rare because he owned the company

The game is a Space exploration RPG. A mix of ideas.The exploration general idea is pure Starflight/Star Control 2, the space combat is, again, similar to Star Control, and the planetary exploration and squad turn based combat is Ultima 6. There are alien contacts and trade (Elite/Star Contol 2/Starflight 2) etc...

still waiting for a grandia comeback, by the way...

Hooray, we finally get Planet's Edge!!!! o_O

ok, thx.

Unfortunately I don't know, sorry. I never played it (just bought it and later read about the cliffhanger due to the missing sequels). Personally I will only play it when I'm in the mood for a non-story driven game.

But maybe someone else here in the thread knows.

You mean jokes about dictionaries, encyclopedias, and such?

;P

They are joking about a lot of things in this game, so maybe even that was squeezed in. xD
