The Succubus Unrated DLC is region locked in Germany.

It should be pointed out that as far as we know right now, there is no legal requirement for GOG to region lock the DLC (see the release thread for details). So GOG is doing this out of their own initiative because they're scared they might get complaints in the future.

This treatment of the game also implies that if more AO titles start appearing on GOG, they will likely be automatically region locked in Germany as well.

There's a workaround, though. You can download the DLC for free from the studio's website. http://madmind-studio.com/
DL speed is very slow right now. Maybe the site's getting hammered with download requests.

Still, this doesn't exactly bode well for the future. Also, Rise of the Triad and Mortal Kombat 1-3 were delisted from the index more than a year ago, and GOG still hasn't unblocked them for Germans. -_-;

Looks like both Subverse and Evenicle are blocked in Germany. The newsposts are visible, though.

Seeing as the OP lists a total of 22 countries affected by blocks before, I'd say!

Forgot Drakensang was on the list for us Aussies. I got Hotline Miami 2 via another method (cant remember how)....

Aaaand Agony Unrated joins the list of games blocked in Germany. Not the regular version, just the Unrated edition.

And unlike Succubus, you can't bypass this via the developers' website, as far as I can tell.

Yeah. There is no update patch. You get TWO COMPLETE games here.

Both worth of many GIGs. Maybe too much was changed or both versions were programmed differently...

So you need to get it with friends / VPN and so on...

"BloodRayne" and "BloodRayne 2" were de-indexed today, so GOG should be lifting the region-block for those 4 games quite soon I think.

As long as they remember to finally unblock ROTT and MK 1-3, too....
