Do you know if there's a list of games where there's a disparity between Galaxy and offline installers?

I've always assumed you'd be getting the same versions of games through either installation method. I can't say I want this update in particular especially, but I don't use Galaxy and it kinda sucks that this might mean I've not necessarily been getting the best/most up-to-date versions of games.

If the developer pushes an update through Galaxy's API instead of the standard process of GOG "QA-ing" it, there is usually a discrepancy of 2-3 workdays until the offline installer is changed. It's the weekend now and GOG's offices are empty, so there's nobody to vet the offline installers at the moment.

I did notice some games do an extra download via Galaxy every time they're installed via the offline installers first, but the files changed are just the ones that start with "gog-" in the main directory (I believe Corsairs Gold is one of them).
The offline installers have been updated to the Re-Elected Edition. Offline installers for the old Game of the Century Edition are not available anymore.

I am not aware of any topic that covers this, however, gogdb.org can be used to determine if there are any discrepancies. Generally, it's best to assume that there will be a couple of days until the offline installers match the Galaxy version.
