For the record, the only reason I redeemed the bundle was to protest censorship! Really, I will not have any kind of fun or pleasure!

Rules
1. Submissions have to be related to games
Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.
This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.
3. No excessive self-promotion
Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.
This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.
5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW
Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.
No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

The bundle is mid at best. You don't even have to try and convince anyone.
Yeah, my hopes weren't to high, but I'll give it a try this weekend... just to support the cause, you know.
I think 4 of those games (including Postal) look very decent/promising, others either not my style or looking too generic/slop.
I said mid, not terrible.
I mean the real challenge is to play one handed

Great catch! Thanks for sharing! As if I needed any more reason to respect GOG more than I already do. GOG always have been the OG GigaChads of online game merchants.
I haven't played a porn game since I was a teen in highschool. 20-odd years ago. Now I own a whole mess of the things.

FYI, clicking the "Claim now!" button under a game will still claim the whole bundle

edit: it is thankfully possible to hide games from your library, tho unfortunately heroic games launcher does not care 😖

Uhh, yeah me too. And they used my credit card to sign up for porn. Smh, GOG
Heroic also has an option to hide games.
yea i just found out, but thank you still!
i wish it synced with GOG but, oh well that’ll do
Same LOL, I just wanted to snag Postal 2 DRM-free. Oh well
Damn, GOG is based af
Keep in mind it's the same company that tweeted a dog whistle to Gamer gate and had a few insensitive transphobic faux pas: https://www.polygon.com/2018/10/23/18015434/gog-twitter-wontbeerased-hashtag/.
I could believe the latter ones were potentially accidental but I don't know how tweeting the exact starting date of Gamer gate with the phrase "R.I.P games journalism" can be anything but intentional.

Gog moment
Bless you, GOG. If you werent so expensive in my country, Id completly port my Steam lib in a heartbeat.
Ima grab the titles at least :)
At first I thought you said "Grab the titties" and I chuckled, then I realized that I was the only one with my mind in the gutter.

if I could even download gog galaxy. there's no download link on their webpage and neither anything on the web. But pretty cool of them
I think it’s de-emphasized because part of the GOG appeal is that you don’t need a launcher and can grab direct DRM free installers. The launcher just exists for convenience.

~~Anyone else having issues redeeming it? Hope I can nab them before the deadline.~~
Nevermind, I got it when I disabled my PiHole. 🤷
Nevermind, I got it when I disabled my PiHole. 🤷
Quite ironic, given the subject
Tried multiple times on different devices, no luck
Can't get it to work either, maybe some of the games are blocked in some regions?
