We're all deeply in sadness after the shocking (literally shocking) [url=http://drmcomic.gog.com/DrMTheDastardlyDoom-Page3.jpg" target="blank]events that has recently occurred at the GOG.com office. The evil and mysterious Dr.M. broke into our headquarters and turned The French Monk into a pile of ashes with his deadly laser gun!

He's been with us for a short time, gave us lots of hints, but apparently his time in this world has come to an end. To commemorate The French Monk we're giving you all a papercraft doll representing this fine character. Now everyone can have their little French Monk by their side or on their desk.

We'll miss you dear monk.

To download the papercraft click here for part 1 and here for part 2

ne_zavarj: When will they post the announcement about the name of the new publisher and its games ?
I'd say Thursday is a safe bet :)

GOG already have Codemasters though :S never really understood why we don't have the Overlord games here.

salute to the fallen monk your words of wisdom will be missed. Although we could always genetically clone him.

tacossmellgood: If this doll is part of the clues, and the medieval theme is important? how?

Delixe: Well.. if we are throwing around random guesses. Didn't EA publish Shogun: Total War and Medieval: Total War?
No. It's Shogun only. Medieval was already published by SEGA.

I went and checked to make sure. Medieval: Total War and Viking Invasions were published by Activision.

tacossmellgood: I mean, no one believes that this is just a regular paper-doll, do they?
Try downloading the papercraft and looking at the file name. That will tell you what game he's related to. ;)

There you go being all rational again. It's like you don't want rampant speculation or something :p

Huh, now that is something!
I wonder what all those big publishers who gave that licence away are thinking, now, that it's one of the most successful PC / strategy franchises. :D

RIP French Monk. Hope now you are in heaven where all games are DRM Free. Everytime I listen to this song I'll remember you:

OOh! ooh! Plot Twist! Dr. M doesn't stand for DRM... it's actually Dr... Monk. The french Monk's father. Except instead of cutting his son's hand and having it replaced with a cybernetic one he obliterated his son to have it replaced with a full blown robot.

Danger GOG! DAAAANGEEEER!!!

If you strike the French Monk down, he shall only become more powerful than you could possibly imagine. I'll wager we have not seen the last of him yet.

Virama: Stop using drugs boys and get back to work....
PS. I love this comment more than you can imagine.

We could also make a time travel to save our monk:

Medieval, french monk => Timeline => Eidos => Deus Ex?!
