Tannath: Then it would be ok for me to ask this for Shadow Warrior 2013 DX11? That way I can keep the DX11 version visible and hide the other one with no loss. Should I send a ticket?
well ; you can also ask them why it was necessary to create a new entry in the library; they could have placed the dx11 version under the same tab as the dx 9 , oh wait we wouldn't got a shiny cover art ? :P

as far i know when a customer buy Shadow warrior she / he get both version.... so a new entry is discutable

its not like Gabriel Knight & Gabriel Knight 20th anniversary....

just my point of view ;)

skeletonbow: Any chance that all of the Might and Magic, Ultima and other RPGs in the entire catalogue could possibly be flagged as being RPGs in the library genre filtering system? :) Currently it seems there are more RPGs in the store that do not show up as RPGs using the library genre filter, than there are that do. :)
Message me please with a list, please :) Got a million things going on atm but I'll see what I can do :)

Dunno if I can quickly and easily make a complete list, but I can point some out that I noticed which are properly flagged in-store as being RPGs but not on-shelf, and it seems random which are missing. I'll send you a PM with what I can determine, but that's limited just to games I own of course. Would be probably a good idea to use the Store database to populate the library genre tags somehow or it'll be a lot of manual work for someone to go over every genre tag on every single unbundled game. :)

Any little bit helps :) Not asking you to go over everything with a fine-tooth comb just if you see anything glaringly obvious :)

I'm not skeletonbow but at least Wizardry 6+7 and Might and Magic 1-6 do not show up with the RPG filter.

A good point. In fact I would argue the same for Leisure Suit Larry 1 and 6.
I don't mind your solution, but since they did create a separate entry, I'm asking the next best thing. ;)

I'll hazard a guess that everything that got unbundled doesn't have genre tags. E.G. avernum 1-6, geneforge, betrayal at krondor, might&magic 1-6, wizardry 6+7, Ultima 1-7. But also stuff like Blitzkrieg 1&2, so it's not related just to RPGs.

It's probably easier for you to run through all unbundled games and check than us pointing the particular games, if I'm right.

Seems to be the case.

Yep, I found a way to make the process go a little faster which I'll describe here so that others can go over their libraries without it being as difficult as it seems at first. I sent you a list, thanks again.

For those who want to check their game catalogue against the store catalogue genre tags, do the following:

1) Open up a browser tab for the store game catalogue: http://www.gog.com/games
2) Configure the page to: OWNED: shown, ORDER: by title
3) Open a separate browser tab to the right of that and load up your library: https://www.gog.com/account
4) Configure the page to: SORT BY: title
5) Open a 3rd browser tab with your library loaded sorted by title with no genre filter applied.
6) Switch to the store page tab and select the genre you want from the genre dropdown, then switch to the library tab and do the same.
7) Scroll through the store page listing looking for games that are greyed out and flagged as "owned", make sure you configured this in step 2 properly.
8) For each game you find owned in the store page, switch to your library view and see if it shows up with the genre filter applied. For games that are multiple games in a bundle such as Might and Magic 1-6 there should be multiple entries on your unbundled game shelf. If any of them are missing at all, or any of the bonus games, expansion packs etc. that expand from the unbundling of games in the library shelf, make a list of them. You can use the 3rd browser tab that shows your unfiltered library to corelate unbundled games with the other two tabs if need be.

I sent Judas a list of the RPGs missing in my library view filtered with genre set to role playing but that'll only notice games I actually own which are missing the tags, so others might want to consider using my above method to detect mis-tagged games in various genres through their own catalogues. It'd be even better if GOG could automate this though. :)

JudasIscariot: I can do that but if anyone comments on doubled bonuses.... >.>
I would appreciate it. Thank you.

Grargar: Seems to be the case.
Yes, that does seem to be the case in my findings so far:
- Geneforge Saga (entire game collection)
- Might and Magic 6-pack (all games)
- Realms of Arcania 1&2
- Ultima 1+2+3
- Ultima 4+5+6 (4 shows up, but that's the separate freebie outside of the collection)
- Ultima 7
- Ultima Underworld 1&2
- Wizardry 6+7

Same thing is happening with ratings, unbundled games have none.
I just found another website bug, view the entire store catalogue, jump to a deep page, say... page 7 of the results. Now apply a genre filter of say... SIMULATION. You end up with a page that says "No results found" which has broken pagination controls that look like:

< 7 of 2 >

The bug is that when a filter is applied, the total number of games that match it will be far less than the total catalogue and so the number of pages that will need to exist to show the subset of games will be potentially smaller than the total number of pages the entire catalogue takes up, and the "current" page of the catalogue you were viewing is essentially no longer relevant but the web page code remembers that and tries to load page 9 of 2 in the results which generates bogosity. :)

It needs a:

If (filtering_options_have_been_modified) {
reset current page counter to 1;
apply filters to list of games
display updated list of games and refreshed pagination controls.
}

It would be nice to have better pagination controls too instead of having to single page at a time left/right or type in a number manually.

<< < 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 > >>

or

FIRST PREV 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 NEXT LAST (more friendly IMHO)

Just a suggestion, and ditto on the personal game library view both on site and within Galaxy client.
I'd say it needs Go To Page <dropdown>
