You release some kinky big boobie alien game called Subverse and turned down two oldschool masterpiece rpgs, Realms Antiquity and Lurking II A Madness, is the staff high or something shitty is going on in the game industry that i didn't acknowledge until now?!

I'd like to think we've got some cultured men and women on the GOG staff instead :)

And there's absolutely nothing wrong with these kinds of games showing up on GOG. Clearly there's a demand for it, and I think it's good that GOG diversifies it's library a bit.

I'm 100% okay with these games being on GOG, just as long as curation stays a thing, and we don't let it turn into a Steam situation. But if they want to release premium and well received adult entertainment on GOG then I'm more than okay with that.

Wait a minute, they officially turned down Realms of Antiquity?
Last thing I heard was that the dev had submitted RoA sometime earlier this year but, like many other devs with pending submissions, just hadn't heard back from GoG since then.

I want to see Realms of Antiquity on GOG as much as anyone, but kink shaming people isn't the way to get people on our side, man!

Maybe, GOG refused to publish those games because developers couldn't guarantee that GOG versions will be updated on the same level as other stores versions? Or some similar reason?

Unlikely.

No, it's just as I said, the dev for Realms of Antiquity (dev for Lurking probably as well?) is just waiting for GoG to get back to him.

There's kink and then there's rape games. I'm not cool with glorifying rape at any level. I'll shame that everyday and twice on Sunday.

Seriously? They just sent out their exclusive offers for a bunch of broken abandoned games.
Gog isn't good at curating, when will you people realize this? All they care about is getting the money from your bank account into theirs.

But butt games should not make you mad! Unbuttressed gothic cathedrals should!

While I essentially agree, and I think nobody here is a rape advocate (that would be somewhat awkward, to say the least, but who knows these days...), "imagined" (aka consensual) rape, as silly as that sounds, is actually quite a common fantasy. If you want a dark comedy on the topic, I'd recommend watching "The Little Death" (2014).

And if by any chance you're referring to "tentacle rape", that's just... a completely ridiculous thing anyway.

I honestly don't care if one or two games like this are on GOG (though it would be nice to have a filter option so we can hide games we're not interested in) but GOG has been adding a reasonable amount of this sort of game lately and it is quite frustrating, I have to admit. First, it was all the dating sims. Now, it's games that are centered entirely around trying to lure in dudes who'd rather look at anime artwork of women than go on a date (and yes, I am joking with that part before y'all get all bent out of shape).

Again, to each their own and I don't really care if one or two of these are on GOG, I just hope it's not indicative of the future considering how many great other games are being overlooked in favor of stuff like this.

Which game do you think is glorifying rape?

I'm equally uninterested in porn games and pixelated nostalgia wankery.
