Yeah, I saw that too, it's marketing stunt, there is almost nothing substantial.
An ingenious marketing stunt, though. With all the hype surrounding the "Stop Killing Games" movement, the fact that GOG allows you to download offline installers for games works in their favour immensely. I hope this does get more people to buy GOG games, so more companies would support it and game preservation in general.
Yeah.
Gotta remember to save those offline installers.

Funny thing is, I read an article from a psychology researcher a few years back... he said that rats could be domesticated just fine, and they even made good pets. But mice? No matter how well you treated them, they'd always end up biting you at random. The common wisdom of rats vs. mice is apparently backwards.

Jirds > rats > mice

Merida, again
Those recent updates they did to their games broke wine compatibility for me. Motherfuckers. Arcanum no longer loads games, it just gets stuck thinking about it. Thankfully I still have the old installer in a backup.
