Wow, a lot of vapor has been let off. :)

But no flag - the return of the Warsow flag exhausted the daily quota?

Anyone else getting a locked, unprintable manual from 1404 A.D. (password-protected .pdf)? (The Venice manual is fine.)

yeah, no flags for the Deponia games :[

I didn't get them either.... I guess they'll probably show up in a week or so :P

Honestly; it's just pathetic....

mrkgnao , built a better system on his free-time , and since the issue at hand occurs , GOG never has been able to fix properly the problem.

Customer wise ,this is just terrible .... :|

Absolutely...
I mean they implemented changelogs without having fully fixed the system....seems like common theme with them making the second step before the first one....

That's why this thread so important but that won't help customers who never visit the forums...

yeah , what's the point of the changelogs , if you are not informed a game has being updated.... gog counts too much on the free work from some of their customers & that's no good at all :|

Exactly...
Yes. It's really a shame that the community has to fix the unnecessary shortcomings of GOG.

These huge Deponia size reductions are suspicious, despite the engine update. Has anyone tried them yet?

Just saying thanks to Daedalic and GOG, finally the Windows installers of Deponia are of the same size of the Linux ones, I've gained like 7gb of free space from my tiny 500GB HDD :-)

I only own the first Deponia game on GOG, so I can talk only about that. The game installs and starts properly. Everything looks good so far, at least under Wine. I haven't played for long, though.

The following observations also have been done under Wine, so the results may or may not be valid for a native Windows installation.

The game has been upgraded to a new major version (3.3.1357 compared to 2.0.3.1281 before). The whole installation is much smaller than the old installation (1.6 GB compared to 3.8 GB). The main differences are the size of the scene files (482 MB vs. 1.8 GB), the character files (224 MB vs. 779 MB) and the video files (737 MB vs. 1.1 GB). All size reductions come without visible differences in the game so far.
Under Wine I also had to install the VC 2012 runtime to be able to run the new game version. I don't know if that's necessary under Windows too or if it's already included in the Windows installation.

So it indeed looks like a lot of "vapor" has been let off. :)

What I don't know is why the Linux installer of the game already has been much smaller in the previous version.

PS: I had to install both game versions to compare them. The old installer comes with a .exe and a .bin file. Unfortunately innoextract does not extract the .bin part, only the .exe part, despite different claims in the man page. Does anybody know how to extract both parts of the installer under Linux?
