"Some games vanish. Not because they broke the law but because someone decided they shouldnโt exist."
Fuckin' ay, man. Fuckin' ay.
I love being able to help protest by playing... (checks notes) Helping the Hotties... ๐
I did not give a shit about NSFW games but I fucking hate cebsorship.
Go GoG, I'm going to buy one from them now!
... for the protest of course.
Hoooly shit I thought it was just one game. But hot damn they just gave all those games away for free. Just claim it once. I even thought it might be a scam cause of the url but its legit!
The URL is direct to gog tho? Unless you mean you didn't recognize gog as a reputable website
If I can buy a game on Gog I do - their lack of DRM, Linux ports, and prices just make me happy.
I'm not really interested in these games but this is pretty freaking awesome.
Postal 2 is actually a really good shitpost of a game. It looks like shit, it is unironically edgy and full of 14 year old levels of sexist, toilet humor. But god damn is it actually a good game. Like, a truly solid immersive sim shooter. And one of the only FPS games I know of that has guns and killing where you don't have to actually get involved and can beat the whole game as a casual observer of the chaos.
Plus you can piss on cops and make cops eat doughnuts filled with dogshit. 11/10.
Actually I already own that one but I wanted my post to be brief.
Paradise Lost DLC is really good too, came out 2015.
IsThatAGTOReference???????
Iโm doing my part!
Well, it ain't gonna do itself.
Nice gesture, but keep in mind that this is the same GOG that was poised to release Devotion by RedCandleGames, only to renege on it because CCP imbeciles told them to. They are brave against censorship except when it involves actual conflict with censors. As soon as that happens, it's bootlick city.
Gonna check them out for a friend
Is she single?
That's nice, but I'm not going to do so, because I'd rather support the developers of pornographic games financially. They already deal with enough flak without needing to give up sales revenue over this.
It also sounds like at least some of the stores are aiming to make the games available later with different payment processors, so I expect that they're likely to come back.
I don't know the logistics behind some of these giveaways, but it doesn't have to mean that the devs are giving up their revenue. It could be gog just fronting the "cost", no?
Could be. They don't say so on the page, though.
Yeah that lack of transparency is a bummer. Might be worth private messaging some of the devs listed here to inquire.
Strange. Iโm getting invalid code error
Thank you kind stranger. I vehemently oppose censorship, especially by uninvolved 3rd parties, so this is precicely what I needed with all of this. Good list of games too.
