Because DRM is still the holy Grail of AAA games and if GOG would allow DRM, well that would get rid of the last defining factor.

Great news, Thanks GoG for all these JRPGs in spite of the typical forum grumblers as even if you only release games from the 90s (Which are finite) they would still find something to bitch about as they are just plain malcontents by default, it's best to ignore them, wishlist/buy the games that YOU want to play, and move on!

If GoG were to only please old people while alienating young people, then it will surly die off, as every company/software/games need new blood to survive into the future, the past is a great place to visit, not live there, only a fool lives in the past while shunning the present and ignoring the future!

The waifus won't stop coming, yes!

Okay pervy, we get it that you defend these anime porn games and bland indies. BUT acquiring old games is not the argument. The argument is that they are BLAND indies and anime garbage. The content is below average at best and lacks seasoning. As wide as an ocean yet deep as a puddle.

There are current modern indies and other games that can be brought to GoG along with older games if they tried and removed their head from their asses. (Carrion is one such indie that came to GoG. Glad it did) That was a good release and it was an indie!

Come at me low rated mob! I drink your salty and lack of creativity tears

What makes Compile Heart games garbage, exactly? How many of them have you played?

There are bad anime games and there are good anime games. Generally speaking, Compile Heart makes good ones. At worst, they make a mediocre one once in a while.

You didn't offer any reasonable criteria by which these games could be considered "garbage."

Nor have you offered any proof for your assertion that these are "porn" games (although GOG does have some anime games that are that...the ones from Compile Heart are not in that category...they are not even AO rated).

The criteria is obviously simple, everything I don't like is garbage.
Also anime = porn.

Simple opinions for simple people.....I'm running out of fish.

Oneechanbara would be nice, did they ever add Ultrawide for PC though ?

Holy beefcakes Batman did this community get toxic or what?

Blindly lambasting anyone with an opinion that doesn't match your own is the very height of childish arrogance and immediately invalidates yours in the eyes of anyone with intelligence because there is no universal right & wrong centered exclusively around your values, ethics and beliefs.

It might be a little ego trip to puff yourself up acting virtuous & better than others but you're really not & if anything that lack of acceptance puts you below a lot of people who have learned to embrace diversity of interest & simply accept, take interest in, or ignore, those that don't share yours.
I thought acceptance etc was being pushed en masse societally but the more this current fad permeates our culture, the more it seems to be the same old "I'm right, you're wrong" agenda that's been pushed since the dawn of time.

As for no triple A games....there's a huge amount, the majority might be older but they're exactly what us longterm goggers came here for in the first place.Older games might not hold your hand & provide instant gratification or constant breadcrumb trails, hell they might even require you to read a manual or learn something, but to many of us they're still as good as the day they were released.


Downvote me if you wish, post a rage enduced follow up, insult me etc; your vitriol is less than worthless to me & illicits nothing but a mild flicker of amusement & validation. I have a good life nowadays & I wouldn't normally even waste my time replying to this kind of mental diarrhea but it's been getting a frequent occurence on gog & people don't deserve to be villainised or made to feel abnormal or perverse just because they find a bit of happiness &/or escape in something that doesn't meet your inflated standards.


I'm frequently saddened that gog has let the forums get into this state because this community used to be amazing, now it's like visiting reddit or the steam forums!

As to this game: It's not a Neptunia game, and neither are any of the other spinoffs. Since I like the Neptunia games as much as I do, I will probably get this anyway, even though it's not really my kind of game. Just like I did with the Neptunia spinoff games IF just brought here (except for the one that costs over $100 complete), and just like I probably would if the other spinoffs got here.

As to the person who feels the need to not only say it's not his thing (which is OK), but also that gog should outright ban such games (which is not OK):
Your definition of porn seems to be of the "don't show ankles" variety. Reminds me of one of my teachers who cliamed a naked woman was running around downtown with a billboard. Turns out she was wearing a swimsuit, advertising a tanning salon. Swimsuits are not nudity, and even if it were, there is more to porn than just nudity. Your definition of bland appears to be "anything I don't like". You are assuming that it's gog's fault that the games you want aren't here, and not the fault of the publishers. You are also wrongly assuming that if gog lets the games in that they are letting in, it automatically precludes the games you like. Carrion is a game that I wouldn't take if it were given away for free, so if I thought like you did, I'd want games like that off the store. "Be the monster" is not original, by the way.

You want original? Death end re;quest combines a combat style that I have seen in very few games: turn-based tactical combat with shaped weapon effects (in fact, I can't think of any that aren't JRPGs), and adds billards (bouncing the monsters around the field) to the mix (yes, I am aware of at least one prior game that does the billiards thing, but not the tactical combat as well). The game also rewards you for getting "bad endings", as you might expect given the game's name. Combat in the Caligula Effect is plan and go simultaneous turn-based combat that actually shows you what the enemy is planning to do at the same time. I'm sure you wouldn't want to play either of these, since they are both Japanese games with Japanese art style (and both come with optional swimsuit DLC, so that's porn, as far as you're concerned).

I am indeed a perv, but for 3 dimensional real-world women, not 2/3D art...
My guess is that he's simply lumping them all in one category for argument’s sake, but no matter, I get these games for the humor and gameplay, not for anime tiddies in spite of the games either having them, or not having them!

As I've said before, I love JRPGs period, not "Anime games" as this guy keeps calling them in spite of being a specific genre of RPG... He most definitely doesn't like anime!

Aw man, GOG, you can't tease us with this and then not give us the Senran Kagura series! But thanks for the release. Glad Iffy's titles are making their way here.
Bring us more JRPGs though, like Atelier series, please GOG!

I'm not going to comment on the toxicity in this thread, as seems to be routine for any vaguely Japanese release.
I agree with some of the excellent posts others have made. And I really don't understand why it's so hard for people to just ignore things they don't like or agree with...
As already said elsewhere in this thread - vote with your wallet, accept that others have varied interests that differ from yours, and move on. You don't see us coming into threads for releases we don't care for and shitting all over them. :/

Seems you have been around with your eyes closed and slept through the whole, GOG doesn't accept Niche games. And then the crying of people that proclaimed they knew what quality was in a Mao's fashion. Regardless of the fact, most of those games barely hit the top 10 list.

People got triggered by Clive Blakemore's game, let alone the game Agony.

I'm glad GOG finally made it so that people can vote with their wallet instead of a preconceived notion of what some unknown nobody sees as quality.

Having platinumed this game on PS4 just in time for it to be announced to be getting a PC port... I'll be double dipping. (Possibly triple if they don't add in Achievements, which really should be standard by now if Steam has them)

Originally a PS4 game, this is meant to be an enhanced version thats releasing simultaneously on Switch and PC, adding in an extra mode (that was likely too spicy for Sony) as well as a new difficulty level (the existing one was pretty darn easy) so I thought I'd share my thoughts regarding the PS4 version, since it should more or less be the same.

First up, despite what another poster said, this is a Neptunia game through and through. The setting is basically Compile Heart ninja school (Neptunia Crew) vs the Senran Kagura ninja school (The representative heads of the four schools) and a guest character from Shinobido. As per normal with Neptunia, its a parody look at the gaming industry, in this case its Steam forcing its way into the console gaming spaces, not caring about who they hurt in the progress. The enemy army is called the Steeme Legion, and to make it even clearer, the enemy leader is called 'Yoh Gamer' who throws lots of hardcore gamer engrish into her lines. Its both on the nose and funny. One particular skit from Vert absolutely rips into the new prudishness.

Its got all the VA from both Neptunia and SK, and all the cast are playing to characters, so its not just a 'title and skins' deal. Move sets and specials are also true to their characters.

The gameplay is a mission/map based fighter, and each character has distinct movesets and specials, as well as shared skills. As they level up they learn more skills that you can choose which to assign, as well as their base combo increasing in length. Customisation is done with both the skills equipped, as well as ranged weapons and passive buffs you get from gems you collect from maps or buy.

You have two characters, one lead and one, that you can swap between and chain attacks. Once I unlocked her, my pair for the whole game was Noire and Homura. I tried using Yumi, but I didn't like her style in the game. Luckily your entire team in reserve still gets XP for your kills.

Fanservice is on the low side in the original game, just a couple of hot springs CG, and a bizarre SK inspired minigame called 'Peaches & Cream meditation' where you have to balance on a peach without falling off to get a buff for following maps you enter based on whether you succeeded or failed.

Its really a game I'd enjoy more in bite sizes, just do a mission, do the side quests that the mission unlocks, and then take a break rather than pushing through it. Mainly because (like Azur Lane) you'd spend fifteen minutes on a mission and then have an hour or so of VN cutscenes before the next one. Luckily they only exist for the story missions and not the side missions or Yomi training that unlocks for post game content.

Well indeed not impossible I missed it, kinda took a break from the forums after the discussions about SJW games.
I remember there was generally a lot of bla bla about the grimoire gamr though.

Damn! I got excited for nothing. I read SENRAN KAGURA in the title and immediately thought the regular Senran Kagura games were gonna be released here. That's one of my favourite series and I've been hoping for a long time for a DRM-Free release. I haven't played this one, but I've heard that it's quite bland. I'm kind of torn since I like both Neptunia and Senran Kagura and the fact that a game featuring both is DRM-Free. I'll just continue to hope.
