That's really awesome (even If we already knew it was coming today), and it would be an insta-buy from me ... except that I'm worried if it is safe, thanks to Heartbleed.

Can we get any official comment? Please?
Nice! We got the full set from PiranhaBytes :)

RabiatorG0G: Thank you, GOG, instabuy, IF:

it is safe to make a purchase right now with all this stuff going on. Since the certificate has not been renewed according to [url=http://possible.lv/tools/hb/?domain=secure.gog.com]this site, I am a bit concerned. Would love for a blueblood to chime in on this.

We have already updated OpenSSL, so we're patched against this bug, and we will renew our certificate soon(TM). I don't know when exactly when this will happen, but I got a confirmation from IT that they're on it.

Okay, thanks, that's good to know. You should probably put it on the frontpage when it's done, just so people know it's safe to buy again.
Instabought, hope to see more Deep Silver games here soon... especially the Metro & Saints Row series :)
:)
Hope you can get the Dead Island series from Deep Silver that would really be a blast and instabuy for me. Any chance for getting the new Dying Light game when it releases from the same developer ? I know the publisher is not Deep Silver for that but nevertheless. What about the older Anno series games that were also published by Deep Silver.

^This. Thanks, Firek.
Like with Risen 1, I advise everyone to install the unofficial [url=http://forum.worldofplayers.de/forum/threads/1147645-RELEASE-Risen-2-ModStarter-v-2-0-(Online-DB-version)]Mod Starter[/url]. While there aren't that many mods, some are essential, like AntiWarp - do NOT play Risen 2 without AntiWarp.
Lol I just read that the DLC was already on dics and could be unlocked with a console command (they patched it up though) :s Damn I love DLC <3
Fingers crossed for more content locked DLC for Risen 3...

Silly question but why is playing without AntiWarp so bad?

JudasIscariot: Silly question but why is playing without AntiWarp so bad?
Because otherwise the vegetation morphs very weirdly in scale when you get closer - it almost looks like they're alive. I think they adressed this issue in a patch, but it's still there, while AntiWarp more or less completely removes it .

This video should illustrate the problem.

EDIT: I should say that I don't know if the Mod Starter or any modification works with the DRM-free version - I'm pretty sure nobody has tried it yet.
