Good OLD Games, yes -
but thanks to the very bad update/patch handling to new(er) ones???

Ex: BG:EE SoD and the EE 2.0 updates were released 4 (four) days later than on Steam -
the current 2.1 updates are now 5 (five) days late and are still missing!!!

People will possibly get the idea not to buy games which are still supported at GoG...

This is a well-known difference between Steam and Gog. Gog likes to personally test each update/patch that developers submit before adding it to the users' library. Steam allows developers to directly upload patches/update their game without enforcing any direct QA process. As a result, patches/updates take slightly longer to appear on Gog and some developers also opt to avoid releasing a torrent of smaller updates that are common on Steam during the initial few days, bundling the updates into a larger patch for Gog after the Steam userbase has confirmed that it's not breaking stuff.

Steam receives faster updates, but they sometimes end up being cast in the guinea pig role. Gog is slower with updates, but the updates they do get tend to be solid.
There is some discussion regarding this issue here

Hi,

We've received the new patch for all the BG: EE games but we hit a slight snag during testing, we should be getting the updated BG:EE games out today if all goes well :)

Play the original games, with BigWorld Setup, been working great for decades.
I never play games at release anyway. I usually wait 1-2 years for the most bugs to be ironed out.
2.1 is up.
Oh loook... it's this thread again...

Only about the 7th one this week...

I've seen worse. Four days has it been since you Baldur's Gate guys got the updates? I think we waited a whole month for us Freedom Planet guys to get the latest update on Steam. So yeah, I've seen worse.

I haven't got any Coliseums built yet. It'll have to be Monarchy for a few turns more, or I'll start losing population.
